As per a recent Genshin Impact leak, the upcoming Pyro unit Chevreuse will use Gunlance as her signature weapon. Over the last weeks, some leaks about Chevreuse have emerged on Genshin Impact's subreddit, revealing that she will be a four-star unit that specializes in melee combat. The developers have yet to confirm her release date, but it has been leaked that she will be added to the standard banner in version 4.3 in December.

There are tons of playable characters in Genshin Impact, with which players can fill out their unique roster. Each character has a different kit, elemental reaction, and ascension upgrade that affect their overall performance. Only a few of them stay relevant in the meta, which changes with almost every version update. New Genshin Impact characters are added to the current banner on a regular basis, providing players with more options to freshen their team. Recently, the sibling duo Lyney and Lynette arrived in the Fontaine region and proved their worth in practice.
According to a new Genshin Impact leak, Chevreuse's signature weapon will be Gunlance, which means she could be a main DPS character. It's a safe bet that this mysterious weapon will perfectly align with her skill set, considering she is a Polearm user. The leak doesn't reveal many details about Gunlance, but it can probably fire bullets or explosive shells. Fellow Genshin Impact players on Reddit speculated that Chevreuse's elemental burst pulls out this weapon to deal Pyro damage. Some also claimed that it may be a rifle with a long bayonet attachment.
If this leak is to be believed, Chevreuse will carry her signature weapon along with a Polearm, which grants her a long reach in combat. Players will have to wait until Genshin Impact version 4.3 to see how Chevreuse's skill set interacts with other characters.
Polearm wielders in Genshin Impact are known for their offensive capabilities. They allow players to take down enemies from a safe distance with their long-reaching weapons. Some Polearm characters excel at single-target damage, while others increase the team's defensive capabilities with their versatile kit. Additionally, they become more powerful at C2 than they previously were. When they reach their max power, these characters can complete all combat-based activities in the game, including world bosses and the Spiral Abyss.
Genshin Impact is available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is also in development.
