Zibai is one of the new characters expected to join Genshin Impact in Version 6.3. She is a 5-star Geo character who we are expecting to be a main DPS unit within a team, and while full details haven’t been revealed yet, early leaks have given us a glimpse of her abilities and signature weapon. Here’s a summary of what we know so far.
What Abilities and Skills Does Zibai Use?
Abilities:
- Normal Attack (Glided Laurel Edge): Zibai performs up to four quick sword strikes, with her Charged Attack consuming stamina to unleash a double forward slash. Her Plunging Attack deals AoE damage both on impact and along the descent path, letting her strike multiple enemies when dropping from mid air.
- Elemental Skill (The Heavens Shift in Silence): Zibai enters the Moonshift Interstice state, converting all her Normal and Charged Attacks into Geo DMG that cannot be overridden and allowing them to generate Interstice Radiance. While in this mode, her 4th Normal Attack hits 2x, with the extra hit counting as Lunar Crystallisation Reaction DMG. Once she builds at least 70 Radiance, she can consume it to replace her Skill with Starlit Steed Trample, dealing two instances of Geo damage, one of which also counts as Lunar Crystallisation DMG. Radiance builds up over time and through Normal Attacks with bonus gains when allies trigger Lunar Crystallisation. This lasts up to 15 seconds or until she casts Starlit Steed Trample four times.
- Elemental Burst (Tri-Seal Sovereign Rite): Zibai summnons the Azure Canopy of Solar Authority, striking enemies with two instances of Geo DMG. The second hit is treated as Lunar Crystallisation Reaction DMG. With a 15 second cooldown and a 60 energy cost, it serves as a reliable reaction enabled damage tool.
- Passive: Zibai’s passives reinforce her Geo conversion and Crystallisation focus. After casting her Skill or triggering Lunar Ward Resonance, she gains Lunar Descent, boosting the damage of Starlit Steed Trample based on her DEF. When entering Moonshift Interstice through her Skill, her attacks convert to Geo, generate Interstice Radiance, and gain reaction bonuses such as an extra 4th Normal Attack hit treated as Lunar Crystallisation DMG. Her defensive scaling is further supported by team synergies: Geo teammates increase her DEF, while Hydro allies increase her Elemental Mastery. Another passive upgrades Hydro Crystallisation into Lunar Crystallisation and raises the team’s reaction damage based on Zibai’s DEF, while also improving Moonsign levels. Finally, she restores Energy every few seconds during nighttime 18:00–06:00 in game) when out of combat, though this effect does not work in Domains or the Spiral Abyss.
The Ideal Weapon for Zibai
- Base ATK – 542
- CRIT DMG% – 88.2%
Zibai’s Signature weapon is a Sword called “Lumensoul Blade“. This weapon enhances DEF by 20% / 25% / 30% / 35% / 40%. After the character uses an Elemental Skill, their Lunar Crystallise reaction DMG is increased by 64% / 80% / 96% / 112% / 128% for 5 seconds.
