Genshin Impact Cloud Retainer leaks: Kit and Constellations

Recently, a couple of new Genshin Impact leaks have surfaced, sharing info on Cloud Retainer aka Xianyun's potential kit and some of her Constellations. She is expected to be released in version 4.4, and it seems that her kit is mostly based on Plunge Attacks and healing her party members.

Additionally, it is hinted that Cloud Retainer could be a support unit for Xiao, thanks to one of her passive talents.

This article discusses all the information that has been leaked regarding Cloud Retainer.

Note: Take the information with a grain of salt since it is based on leaks.

According to leaks via Black Rose, Cloud Retainer can supposedly create a wind domain using her Elemental Skill, which allows the active unit to perform three Plunged Attacks. This is expected to be pretty similar to Venti's hold version of Elemental Skill.

Meanwhile, Xianyun's Elemental Burst reportedly increases nearby party members' jumping ability, allowing them to jump higher. In addition, she instantly heals the entire team after using her Burst and provides additional healing periodically, similar to Jean.

Furthermore, one of Cloud Retainer's passive talents buffs the active character's Plunging Attack DMG inside the field created by her Elemental Skill, making her a potential support for Xiao.

Here's a list of the Xianyun's Constellations and their abilities:

• C2: Provides more healing to the entire team after using her Elemental Burst
• C4: Increases ATK (It is unclear if she increases her own ATK or the entire party)
• C6: Increases the number of usages of her Skill and also increases her main DPS ability

Unfortunately, there is no info about Cloud Retainer's C1 ability. Meanwhile, her C3 and C5 are expected to increase her Elemental Skill and Burst levels by three, similar to other characters in the game.

More info is expected to be leaked once the Genshin Impact 4.4 beta begins.
