Yun Jin's rarity
According to leaks, Yun Jin will be a 4-star character in Genshin Impact.
Leaks suggest that both new characters in Genshin Impact 2.4, Yun Jin and Shenhe, will appear on the same banner. While Shenhe will be the premier character on the banner, Yun Jin will have increased drop rates along with the other featured 4-stars.
Yun Jin is predicted to arrive on the first banner in 2.4, so Genshin Impact players can assume her release date will be January 5.
With no other new characters announced for version 2.4, the second half of this version may feature rerun banners. As of version 2.3, Genshin Impact has begun releasing two rerun banners at once. Therefore, players can likely expect the same from the end of 2.4.
Yun Jin's animations and elemental abilities
A popular Genshin Impact leaker, Lumie, recently shared a video of Yun Jin in-game. In the video below, fans can see all of Yun Jin's idle animations, as well as her normal attack, charged attack, and elemental abilities.
With her Elemental Skill, Yun Jin makes a large horizontal slash with her polearm. By holding this ability, Yun Jin may also form a shield.
Yun Jin's other elemental ability is a little more flashy. By performing her Elemental Burst, Yun Jin creates four flags that surround the active character. These flags may buff a character's damage based on Yun Jin's defense.
Gamers who want to summon Yun Jin will have to wait until early next year, but more information about the character may arrive in the version 2.4 livestream.
