I am excited about Mavuika’s leaked animations in 5.3 in a way I haven’t been since I first saw Xiao in action back in Version 1.3. The Pyro Archon is expected to be one of the new playable characters in the action RPG’s Version 5.3 update alongside the Pyro Traveler, for example. Mavuika has been a known NPC since before the arrival of the Nation of Pyro and since Version 5.0 she’s been an ally to the Traveler. Now, following several updates and character releases, Mavuika is listed among the leaked playable characters in 5.3.
HoYoverse has not yet detailed her as a character, but the beta tests for the patch have started and, with them, leaks about the upcoming content have started to emerge, too. The leaks also include mentions of the events taking place during the update, such as the annual Lantern Rite Festival. Of course, information about new characters tends to be the highlight of any beta test leak, and the ones regarding the Pyro Archon, her kit, and her animations are making me particularly excited to pull for Mavuika in 5.3 in a way that hasn’t occurred in years.
In a now-deleted video, the leaked set of animations used by Mavuika in Version 5.3 was showcased, highlighting how she moves around and fights her opponents when using her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst abilities. The video was obtained by the leaker known as Dim and then shared in a post tagged as “” on Reddit. The leaked footage showed Mavuika using her claymore to strike in a very elegant and skillful manner, which goes hand-in-hand with the lore-related fact that she has been practicing that style for centuries in ’s Natlan region.
Genshin Impact 5.3 leaks have shown the new world boss arriving in the patch, and they may be the first human enemy of that category so far.
The leaked video also presented the two forms of Mavuika’s Elemental Skill. The first one sees her summon Rings of Searing Radiance, which follow the active character and somewhat resemble Raiden Shogun’s Chakra
