Summary
- Genshin Impact leak hints at new elite enemy in version 5.0, with unique abilities and Hydro element attacks, resembling Mualani.
- Version 5.0 will introduce new mobs, local legends, and bosses in Natlan region, each with distinct attack patterns and special abilities.
- Players must strategize and memorize enemy patterns to succeed in combat, as bosses can deliver powerful single-strike attacks in Genshin Impact.
A recent Genshin Impact leak showed a humanoid elite enemy that will reportedly arrive in version 5.0. A couple of days ago, several Genshin Impact leaks revealed new regular mobs and local legends that will appear in Natlan in 5.0. These hostile creatures are very different from the humanoid enemy, possessing special abilities that deliver a degree of damage. It's rumored that one of them will be in the form of a capybara.
Genshin Impact features different types of enemies, such as elites, local legends, and weekly bosses, who have their own abilities and weaknesses. The hardest enemies in the game are usually bosses who can kill characters in a single strike. Regardless of its type, each creature has a different attack pattern that players must memorize to win combat. Some perform special abilities to deal damage from a distance, while others utilize melee attacks.
Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Natlan Statue of the Seven Rewards
Recent Genshin Impact leaks are teasing the array of rewards players will be able to collect from Natlan's Statues of the Seven.
A Genshin Impact leak from nnslivercha showed a new humanoid elite who specializes in the Hydro element. This female enemy is taller than many playable characters, wears a mask, and uses a giant slingshot as her primary weapon. With her slingshot that turns into a hammer, she performs heavy attacks and throws several Hydro particles at players. Moreover, the upcoming elite enemy uses her weapons as a surfboard and travels over land like Genshin Impact's Mualani.
Genshin Impact's New Elite Enemy Will Be a Hydro User
This elite enemy looks like an evil version of Mualani that can perform melee and ranged attacks. She bends Genshin Impact's Hydro element and turns it into arrows. Furthermore, she wields a Hydro claymore that is as massive as weapons in Monster Hunter games. There is currently no information about her location in the Natlan region.
Aside from a humanoid Hydro user, Genshin Impact will introduce new local legends and regular mobs in version 5.0. According to leaks, these hostile creatures will possess unique abilities. For example, Secret Source Automaton: Hunter-Seeker deals damage with a laser attack, while Foliar-Swift Wayob Manifestation absorbs all party members' energy. Once the version 5.0 update is released, they will appear in the Natlan region.
Genshin Impact's version 5.0 will feature a variety of content to keep players occupied until the next update. The upcoming version will expand the enemy lineup by adding new mobs, bosses, and local legends. It will take players to Natlan, an explorable region devoted to the Pyro archon. Moreover, Genshin Impact's update 5.0 will promote three Natlan-based characters: Mualani, Kinich, and Kachina.
