Genshin Impact Navia kit leaks: Abilities, talent, and signature artifact effects

Genshin Impact will very soon see Navia as a playable character, as the Fontaine arc is slowly progressing through each update. New characters are expected to arrive throughout the patch, as HoYoverse is planning to set up a series of stories, all surrounding the nation of Hydro.

Thankfully, Navia serves as one of the main characters in the ongoing story missions, as she is a renowned personality within the city walls.

Based on Navia's in-game model in the first patch, it was already easy to deduce her element and weapon of choice. With the release of recent leaks, it seems that she will be wielding the Geo element while playing the role of a buffer in a team. Navia is expected to be released with v4.3 on December 20, 2023.

Readers will find more information on Navia's kit and a new signature artifact set below.

Genshin Impact leaks hint at Navia's kit and new artifact perks

Navia is scheduled to be a limited 5-star character in Genshin Impact 4.3. Since her release is yet some time away, the community doesn't have a whole lot of information regarding her gameplay and numbers on the field.

That said, recent leaks from Uncle SH seem to be concrete, as they are stating some of the abilities in detail.

Here are the descriptions of all the abilities based on the leaks by Uncle SH:

• Talent: Increase attack power by stacking teammates with different colored elementals.
• E or skill: Fires a canon, followed by a Rock Elemental Attachment that absorbs crystals.
• Q or burst: Set up a turret (sustained Rock Elemental Attachment) and give a buff. Lasts 12 seconds with a 15-second CD. Requires 60 Energy.

Some of these leaks also include a new Artifact set meant exclusively for Navia as a playable unit. The following perks will be granted by the 2-pc and 4-pc set bonuses:

• 2-Piece: 18% Attack
• 4-Piece: Stacks increase attack and Geo damage when obtaining crystals. When fully stacked, the effect of the four-piece set is doubled (1.5 or 2?).

Players are free to equip the set mentioned above on any Genshin Impact character they prefer, with Navia being the BiS (best in the slot) in this case. Note that there isn't any gameplay footage on Navia's kit available as of this writing.
