Leaks hint at new Plunging and Cryo DMG artifact sets in Genshin Impact 5.5

According to a leak by Narc1ssus, translated by Seele Leaks, here are full set bonuses for the rumored Plunging Attack DMG artifact set:

• 2-pc: Increases Plunging Attack DMG by 25%
• 4-pc: When the wielder's Plunging Attack, Charged Attack, or Elemental Skill hits an enemy, they gain 1/2/2 stacks of "Everlasting Radiance," respectively. This effect can be triggered once per second by Plunging Attacks, Charged Attacks, or Elemental Skills. Everlasting Radiance: Each stack increases Plunging Attack DMG by 15% for 6 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. Each stack's duration is calculated independently.

This set provides a ton of Plunging Attack DMG bonus, making it great for characters who excel in Plunging Attack DMG playstyle. This includes Xiao, Gaming, and even Diluc when paired with Xianyun.

Seele Leaks is a fairly reliable source, so the leaks are also likely credible.

Cryo set

The reported bonuses on the new Cryo artifact set are:

• 2-pc: Increases Cryo DMG Bonus by 15%.
• 4-pc: When the wielder's energy is 0, Normal Attack DMG is increased by 60%, and Elemental Burst DMG is increased by 60%. After the wielder's Normal Attack deals DMG, the Elemental Burst DMG increase effect will be disabled for six seconds; after the wielder's Elemental Burst deals damage, the Normal Attack DMG increase effect will be disabled for six seconds. These effects can be triggered even when the character is off-field.

The 4-pc set bonus is pretty interesting since it provides significant Normal Attack and Elemental Burst DMG bonuses. It is speculated that the Cryo set could be for a future Cryo character, most likely Skirk.
