Genshin Impact 2.7 leaks: Free 4-star weapon stats and preview revealed

sportskeeda.com:

Genshin Impact version 2.7 will arrive with a free four-star weapon called Fading Twilight. Owing to the game's merciless gacha system, players always have sky-scraping expectations from free weapons. Trying to unlock a five-star weapon from the Epitome Invocation banner is a gruesome process.

The 2.7 beta has revealed a lot about the upcoming four-star bow. It has an Energy Recharge sub-stat, and its passive ability is based on buffing the DMG.

Here's everything players need to know about the upcoming free four-star bow in Genshin Impact version 2.7.

At Level 1, the Fading Twilight offers 44 Base ATK and 6.7% Energy Recharge.Upon maximum ascension (Lv. 90), the Base ATK is 565, and the Energy Recharge is 30.6%.

The passive ability of this weapon at Refinement Rank 1 has three states: Evengleam, Afterglow, and Dawnblaze. These increase DMG dealt by 6%/10%/14%, respectively.

When attacks hit opponents, the weapon will switch to the next state. This weapon can change states once every 7 seconds. The character equipping this weapon can still trigger the state switch while not on the field.

Here's how much DMG buff each state provides at higher refinements:

As usual, travelers are already worried about the effectiveness of the free four-star bow. Two interesting things about this weapon are its high base ATK and its passive ability, which allows off-field damage dealers to shine.

Yelan's Elemental Burst is an off-field damage-dealing ability where the Normal Attacks of the active character are infused with Hydro. The five-star Hydro bow character has an Elemental Burst that costs 70 Energy, and the Fading Twilight might be a good weapon for her.

Similarly, characters like sub-DPS Ganyu and Kujou Sara can benefit from Fading Twilight
