Elemental Skill

Furina’s Elemental Skill in Genshin Impact exhibits two distinct effects based on her current Arkhe alignments.

Ousia

  • Deals AoE Hydro DMG based on Furina’s Max HP.
  • Summons three Salon Members: the Ball Octopus-shaped Gentilhomme Usher, the Bubbly Seahorse-shaped Surintendante Chevalmarin, and the Armored Crab-shaped Mademoiselle Crabealetta.
  • The summons deal Hydro DMG based on Furina’s Max HP.
  • If character(s) with more than 50% HP are nearby, the Members will consume their HP and increase the Member’s current attack’s power based on the number of characters who have lost HP. The increase ranges from 110% to 140% of their original DMG.

Pneuma

  • Summons the Singers of the Streams, who will heal nearby active characters based on Furina’s Max HP.
  • Both the Singers and Salon Members share the same duration, which synchronizes when switching characters.

Stacking Mechanic

As the leaks describe, Furina will have a stacking mechanic tied to her max HP. Maintaining higher HP will amplify her healing abilities, whereas lower HP enhances her damage. This presents an interesting balance during combat where HP management is key to maximizing Furina’s full potential.

Team HP Interaction

Perhaps her most unique trait is an ability to drain HP from party members while on the field, offset by her own HP loss over time. This dynamic interaction balances her damage scaling and presents a mechanic rarely seen before.

Genshin Impact Furina Leaks: Story

Prominent Genshin Impact leaker Tao, through fellow leaker HXG, shared an update revealing Furina’s involvement in the Version 4.2 story. According to the leak, Furina will lose her status as the Hydro Archon and her powers as the God of Justice, known as Focalors. The leak does not provide specific reasons for this change, but it highlights that it will differ from Zhongli’s transition in Liyue’s main story.

The excitement surrounding Furina’s arrival in Genshin Impact continues to build, and players can hardly wait to see how her unique abilities and interactions will shape the game’s meta and storyline. Until then, fans can only speculate and prepare for the day when the God of Justice and Hydro Archon of Fontaine graces Teyvat with her presence.
