I. New Characters

5-Star Character "Night-Igniting Flame" Mavuika (Pyro)

◇ Gnosis: Pyro

◇ Weapon: Claymore

◇ The leader of Natlan who inherited the Ancient Name of "Kiongozi." She made a vow to illuminate the future of the nation of war with the Sacred Flame.

◆ Elemental Skill: The Named Moment

◇ Summons forth the "All-Fire Armaments" and enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state. Tap to have "All-Fire Armaments" manifest into the Ring of Searing Radiance. The Ring follows the current active character and attacks nearby opponents at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG. Hold to have "All-Fire Armaments" manifest as a Flamestrider, further improving Mavuika's terrain-crossing abilities. Mavuika's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will also deal Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG. While in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, tapping the Elemental Skill can switch the All-Fire Armaments' form.

◆ Elemental Burst: Hour of Burning Skies

◇ Mavuika's Elemental Burst is not reliant on Elemental Energy, but instead on "Fighting Spirit." When party characters consume Nightsoul points or their Normal Attacks hit opponents, Mavuika will gain Fighting Spirit. When Mavuika accumulates a certain amount of Fighting Spirit, she can consume it all to unleash her Elemental Burst.

◇ After Mavuika activates her Elemental Burst, she summons the "All-Fire Armaments" Flamestrider and enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state. She will execute a powerful Sunfell Slice on enemies, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Pyro DMG. While in the special state, Mavuika's actions no longer consume Nightsoul points, and during this time, Sunfell Slice, the Flamestrider mode's Normal and Charged Attacks deal increased DMG based on the amount of "Fighting Spirit" consumed.

5-Star Character "Obsidian Opalstar" Citlali (Cryo)

◇ Vision: Cryo

◇ Weapon: Catalyst

◇ The great shaman from the Masters of the Night-Wind, the universally-revered Granny Itztli.

◆ Elemental Skill: Dawnfrost Darkstar

◇ Citlali activates her Opal Shield and summons Itzpapa, gaining Nightsoul points and entering the Nightsoul's Blessing state. When Citlali's Nightsoul points exceed a certain amount, Itzpapa will continuously consume Nightsoul points to summon a Frostfall Storm that will attack enemies within range, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Cryo DMG.

◇ After unlocking the Passive Talent "Itzpapalotl's Star Garments," Citlali will recover a set amount of Nightsoul points whenever a nearby party member triggers a "Nightsoul Burst."

◆ Elemental Burst: Edict of Entwined Splendor

◇ Citlali hurls an icy storm at the area in front of her, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Cryo DMG. This also summons a Spiritvessel Skull near enemies that explodes after a period of time and restores a set amount of Nightsoul points to herself.

4-Star Character "Spring Woven From Jade" Lan Yan (Anemo)

◇ Vision: Anemo

◇ Weapon: Catalyst

◇ A rattan weaver from Chenyu Vale. Clear-minded and well-tempered, she is as lively as a mountain spring.

◆ Elemental Skill: Swallow-Wisp Pinion Dance

◇ Lan Yan summons a Swallow-Wisp Shield, dashes forward and, upon making contact with her target, will leap back into the air. While in mid-air, pressing her Elemental Skill again or pressing Normal Attack will cause Lan Yan to hurl her Feathermoon Rings at an opponent, and they will spin between nearby opponents upon hit, dealing Anemo DMG.

◆ Elemental Burst: Lustrous Moonrise

◇ Creates a Feathermoon Swallow Array, pulling in nearby opponents and objects and dealing multiple instances of AoE Anemo DMG.

◆ Passive Talent: Four Sealing Divination Charms

◇ When her Elemental Skill dash hits an opponent, the Swallow-Wisp Shield and Feathermoon Rings will undergo an Elemental Absorption depending on the elements they come into contact with.

5-Star Character: Traveler (Pyro)

◇ Interact with a Statue of The Seven - Pyro to resonate with the Pyro element, and use a new Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst.

◆ Elemental Skill: Flowfire Blade

◇ Wields a searing flame and enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state. Tap to summon a "Blazing Threshold" that follows the current active character. It will deal Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG to nearby opponents at intervals. Hold to summon a "Scorching Threshold" that follows the current active character. It will launch a Coordinated Attack that deals Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG to opponents.

◆ Elemental Burst: Plains Scorcher

◇ Condense the flames into a mark, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Pyro DMG to opponents up ahead, and restores the Traveler's Nightsoul points periodically for a certain duration afterward.

◆ Resonance Unlock Criteria:

• Complete "Where All Hopes Lie" in Archon Quest Chapter V: Act V "Incandescent Ode of Resurrection"

◇ Giving offerings to the "Throne of the Primal Fire" will further enhance your Pyro abilities.

◆ Function Unlock Criteria:

• Complete Archon Quest Chapter V: Act V "Incandescent Ode of Resurrection"

II. New Equipment

New Weapons (Examples based on Refinement Rank 1)

A Thousand Blazing Suns (5-Star Claymore)

Gain the "Scorching Brilliance" effect when using an Elemental Skill or Burst: CRIT DMG increased by 20% and ATK increased by 28% for 6s. This effect can trigger once every 10s. While a "Scorching Brilliance" instance is active, its duration is increased by 2s after Normal or Charged attacks deal Elemental DMG. This effect can trigger once every second, and the max duration increase is 6s. Additionally, when the equipping character is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, "Scorching Brilliance" effects are increased by 75%, and its duration will not count down when the equipping character is off-field.

◆ During the event wish "Epitome Invocation," the event-exclusive 5-star weapon A Thousand Blazing Suns (Claymore) will receive a huge drop-rate boost!

Starcaller's Watch (5-Star Catalyst)

III. New Outfits
Hu Tao: Cherries Snow-Laden

◇ Hu Tao's outfit. Styled in a palette lighter than the dark ceremonial wear favored by the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, the dress is a special gift from her good friend Xiangling. The sunglasses, for their part, are from Hu Tao's personal collection.

◆ After the Version 5.3 update to 2025/02/10 03:59, Hu Tao's outfit "Cherries Snow-Laden" will be available for purchase in the Character Outfit Shop at a limited-time discount!

The outfit can only be purchased once.

Xiangling: New Year's Cheer

◇ Xiangling's outfit. The red coat glows like a stove amidst cold winds, topped with a hat that, at Hu Tao's suggestion, took inspiration from Guoba's appearance — a design that's right up Xiangling's alley.

◆ During Version 5.3, Travelers can obtain Xiangling's outfit "New Year's Cheer" for free by participating in the limited-time "Springtime Charms" event.

◆ After Version 5.3 is over, Travelers can buy the outfit in the Character Outfit Shop.
