Summary

  • A Genshin Impact leak reveals new weapons like Peak Patrol Song and Mountain-Crushing Nail for version 5.1.
  • Weapons in Genshin Impact enhance character skills and provide passive bonuses to improve combat prowess.
  • Weapons have specific rarities and can be obtained through banners, events, chests, and blueprints in the game.

A Genshin Impact leak has revealed several weapons that will allegedly be obtainable in version 5.1. Weapons in Genshin Impact are divided into five categories: Catalyst, Claymore, Bow, Polearm, and Sword, which offer diverse playstyles and stats. These items enhance the effectiveness of characters' skills, providing them with a passive that improves their combat prowess.

Weapons are vital for any Genshin Impact unit, as they provide massive stat bonuses and help them complete the endgame content. Like characters, weapons also have a rarity that tells players how hard it is to obtain them from banners. Luckily, there are a number of ways to unlock these items in Genshin Impact. Players can use their wishes on banners, complete specific events, open chests, or collect blueprints to add weapons to their loadouts.

A Genshin Impact leak from Merlin has revealed four new weapons that will reportedly be added in version 5.1. According to the leak, the next version will introduce a five-star sword, Peak Patrol Song, which gives stacks of "Ode to Flowers" and increases the wearer's DEF by 10% for each. It will also bring a four-star polearm, Mountain-Crushing Nail, that decreases climbing stamina consumption and boosts the character's elemental skill DMG by 12%.

Genshin Impact Version 5.1 Weapons

  • Peak Patrol Song (five-star Sword)
  • Mountain-Crushing Nail (four-star Polearm)
  • Sturdy Bone (four-star Claymore)
  • Fruitful Hook (four-star Claymore)

In addition to Mountain-Crushing Nail and Peak Patrol Song, Genshin Impact's version 5.1 will reportedly introduce two other weapons, Sturdy Bone and Fruitful Hook, each with their own passive. According to their descriptions, Sturdy Bone decreases sprint stamina consumption by 15%, while Fruitful Hook increases Plunging Attack CRIT Rate by 16%. Both items will reportedly be four-star Claymore weapons.

It's worth noting that the names, stats, and passives of these weapons are subject to change until the launch of version 5.1. According to the schedule, the next version of Genshin Impact will likely arrive in early October.

Speaking of weapons, Genshin Impact's version 5.0 has introduced Footprint of the Rainbow, Ring of Yaxche, and Earth Shaker, which are obtainable through the game's Forging mechanic. Players can unlock these four-star items by collecting specific materials like Spinel Fruit, Embercore Flower, Candlecap Mushroom, Condessence Crystal, and Cacahuatl.

Aside from forgeable items, Genshin Impact's version 5.0 has brought seven weapons to banners, including Freedom Sworn, Surf's Up, The Stringless, Dragon's Bane, Favonius Sword, and Sacrificial Fragments. As players might expect, these weapons will be available to claim until the second part of version 5.0. They can be unlocked by spending gacha tickets on temporary banners.

Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy.

You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived.

Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds...

MASSIVE OPEN WORLD
Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover?

ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM
Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage.

Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration.

BEAUTIFUL VISUALS
Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life.

SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK
Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood.

BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM
Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains.

JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS
Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards.

As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure!
