A new Natlan leak hints at two new artifact sets in Genshin Impact 5.0. The new artifacts themselves shouldn't come as a surprise to players since Natlan is a new region with characters. However, the effects on these sets suggest that a new mechanic called Night Spirit will be introduced in the Pyro nation, similar to the Pneuma and Ousia mechanics in Fontaine. Additionally, the new artifacts provide damage bonuses, suggesting that they are only for on-field damage dealers.

This article will briefly discuss the two leaked artifact sets in Genshin Impact 5.0 and the rumored Night Spirit mechanic in Natlan.

Genshin Impact 5.0 leaks hint at two new Natlan artifact sets and mechanic

As mentioned, two new artifact sets have been leaked and will likely be available in Genshin Impact 5.0. The information comes from Foul, who has a fairly good track record and has accurately leaked a few banners in the past. As such, it is safe to consider the leaks as reliable.

Here are the effects on each artifact set, according to the leaks:

  • First set: When a character is in Night Spirit state, they deal increased DMG%. When the state ends, the character's CRIT Rate is increased.
  • Second set: When a party member enters the Night Spirit state, the equipping character regains some energy and a reaction occurs that increases their DMG bonus.

Both artifact sets have Night Spirit mechanics. The first one provides a DMG bonus when the unit is under the Night Spirit state and a CRIT Rate bonus when they are not in the special state. Meanwhile, the second set restores some energy and increases the damage dealt by the equipping character when a party member enters the Night Spirit state.

Unfortunately, it is not clear what the Night Spirit state exactly is. That said, it is hinted to be a new type of mechanic exclusive to Natlan characters, similar to the Pneuma and Ousia mechanics in Fontaine.

Interestingly, the potential kit of an upcoming Natlan character named Kinich was recently shared on X by @Razor_language. The leaks suggest that the Dendro unit's Elemental Skill relies on the Night Spirit mechanic to trigger certain effects.

If the leaks turn out to be true, it is safe to assume that most, if not all, characters in Natlan will have the Night Spirit mechanics in their kit.
