Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Ifa’s Skill Set

In the vibrant world of Genshin Impact, players are buzzing with excitement over the anticipated arrival of Ifa, a 4-Star Anemo Catalyst. Touted as the fifth healer of its element, Ifa is stirring up quite the anticipation among adventurers. His skill set promises exceptional healing abilities with potential for great synergy within Electro-Charged teams. Given his impressive crowd control potential, Ifa is poised to become a substantial asset in the game, making his debut one of the most awaited events.

Leaked information within the community suggests that Ifa’s arrival in the game will bring a refreshing twist. His introduction follows the appearance of Wriothesley, another male character who joined the roster as a 5-Star back in October 2023. Although Ifa won’t carry the 5-Star title, his capabilities pack a punch. As an Anemo healer, he shares the stage with beloved characters like Xianyun and Jean. Originating from Natlan, his value as a support character is already high. Players are eager to see what makes Ifa stand out from his Anemo Catalyst counterparts and how he compares to other 4-Star heroes.

Thanks to the insights provided by Seele Leaks, we get an early glimpse into Ifa’s abilities. Hailing from the Flower-Feather Clan, Ifa is humorously suggested to be an upgraded version of Yumemizuki Mizuki, a recent 5-Star character. His healing powers are unlimited and perform well alongside Furina’s Fanfare, offering seamless compatibility with Electro-Charged strategies. This naturally gives Ororon a perfect spot on Ifa’s team.

Genshin Impact: Breaking Down Ifa’s Ability Kit

Skills

• Normal Attack: Ifa unleashes a series of three attacks, each inflicting Anemo damage.

• Charged Attack: Consuming stamina, Ifa performs a forward-moving attack, inflicting area-of-effect (AoE) Anemo damage.

• Plunging Attack: From mid-air, Ifa descends to the ground, dealing damage along the way and delivering AoE Anemo damage upon impact.

• Elemental Skill: Activating this, Ifa earns 80 Nightsoul points and enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state with Cacucu’s aid. Hovering, his Normal Attack becomes Supportive Shooting with two options:

  • Tap: Fires Medicinal Bullets for Anemo damage and healing, scaling with Elemental Mastery.
  • Hold: Continuously fires Medicinal Bullets, providing damage and healing.
• Elemental Burst: Launches a therapeutic projectile that explodes, forming a Binding Wind Field that draws in nearby items and enemies, dealing AoE Anemo damage. Enemies marked with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, or Electro gain a "Calm Mark," detonating for matching AoE damage.

Talents

• A1: During Nightsoul’s Blessing, each Nightsoul point buffs the Swirl and Electro-Charged reaction damage for allies, boosting by 1.2% per point.

• A2: Triggering "Nightsoul Burst" increases Ifa’s Elemental Mastery by 80 for 10 seconds.

• P1: Once Nightsoul points deplete, Ifa uses Phlogiston to maintain Nightsoul’s Blessing. Switching to Ifa mid-air in Phlogiston Mechanism zones grants an entry into the Nightsoul’s Blessing state.

• P2: In similar zones, Ifa heals allies below 40% HP, based on 150% of his Elemental Mastery. This can trigger every 10 seconds but excludes Domains and Spiral Abyss.

Constellations

• C1: "Supportive Shooting" hits restore 6 Energy every 8 seconds.

• C2: With excess Nightsoul points, Ifa gains more "Rescue Essentials," bolstering max limits.

• C3 & C5: Enhance Elemental Skill and Burst levels by 3.

• C4: Extends Binding Wind Field duration, boosting Elemental Mastery post-cast.

• C6: A chance for an additional Medicinal Bullet with reduced resource consumption in the non-combat setting.

Ifa’s crowd-control capabilities via Elemental Burst stand out remarkably, hinting that he may become a formidable character. With abilities that rely heavily on Elemental Mastery, players might find it challenging to assemble the ideal Artifact Set promptly, except by borrowing items from characters like Kazuha.

Team setups suggest Ifa pairs well with Natlan allies, with a strong boost to Electro-Charged damage that aligns perfectly with Ororon. A lineup with Furina and Fischl appears optimal, though Yelan’s inclusion remains feasible. As the build’s "driver," Ifa effectively triggers reactions through his Normal Attacks. Full specifics of Ifa’s abilities are due in March 2025, ahead of Version 5.6’s release on May 7, 2025.
