Kuki Shinobu to be a unique Genshin Impact healer, suggests new ability leaks
Kuki Shinobu is an upcoming four-star character in Genshin Impact. Her arrival in patch 2.7 was confirmed by drip marketing images posted on the game's official social media handles.
The 2.7 beta testing has begun, and as usual, leakers have left no stone unturned to reveal information about the characters. Kits for both Yelan and Kuki Shinobu are out, and players can already envision their abilities and playstyle.
Based on leaks, here's why Kuki Shinobu will be a unique Electro healer in Genshin Impact.
Kuki Shinobu loses a part of her HP after initiating this skill and then deals Electro DMG to nearby opponents. She also creates a Grass Ring of Sanctification that has the following properties:
It is worth noting that the HP loss at the beginning of the skill can bring Kuki Shinobu to a minimum of 20% HP.
Shinobu's skill in Genshin Impact is similar to Qiqi's off-field Elemental skill. After using it, the character can be swapped with the main DPS or the sub-DPS who requires the healing. The duration is 12 seconds and the cooldown is 15 seconds.
Shinobu creates a barrier with her Elemental Burst and deals continuous Electro DMG to enemies that are placed within the AoE. The damage is based on Kuki Shinobu's max HP. Also, if her HP is equal to or less than 50%, the shield lasts longer.
The cooldown on the skill is 15 seconds and the Energy Cost is 60.
Long story short, Kuki Shinobu is a support character in Genshin Impact who can constantly apply Electro and heal the party members based on her max HP. This explains why HP% is her ascension stat. Having said that, players might want to keep her HP below 50% for maximum damage output.
