Genshin Impact leaks are still coming on fast, no matter how hard HoYoverse tries to keep leakers under wraps. This time, the leaks are going beyond the upcoming version 3.0 update and profess to confirm character banners in 3.1, which may release in early October. Known leaker hxg_diluc claims that Cyno, Candace, and Nilou will be available during that update, which if true means Lesser Lord Kusanali, the Dendro Archon, won’t be available until even later, possibly around mid November.
The tweet in question also mentions the rarity of each character as well. hxg_diluc says that both Cyno and Nilou are five-star characters, while Candace is a four-star character.
Leak group SaveYourPrimos previously said Cyno is Electro and uses a polearm, while Nilou wields a sword and Hydro, and Candace is also Hydro, but fights with a polearm.

With all that being said, there are still a number of new characters that’ll appear well
