Players are excited as new information reveal more about Hydro Archon and her abilities. Expected to debut in version 4.2 banners, many eagerly await to learn anything about the character and her abilities. These sources have provided insights about the Elemental Burst of the Hydro Archon, creating a buzz among the community.
Interestingly, most within the community believed that she would be a healer, but based on the new information, that doesn’t seem to be the case. For those unaware, she is the current Hydro Archon and the ruler of Fontaine in the game. However, based on the latest info, it seems Focalors’ kit works exactly the opposite of what was previously believed.
Based on the translation of the latest info from Chinese forums, Focalor’s Elemental Burst will create a field where she can freely manipulate gravity inside that space. All party members inside will be inflicted with an HP drain, providing them with massive buffs and increasing resistance to interruption.
On the downside, the burst does not have a safety net and puts some sort of debuff. This implies that if nothing is done, players can lose their character to Focalor’s burst.
Thinking back, Focalors would not be the first character to consume their own or an ally’s HP whenever she uses her skill. Kuki Shibonu’s Elemental Skill creates a Grass Ring of Sanctification at the cost of her HP. Similarly, Xiao loses HP over time whenever he uses his Elemental Burst.
And The sources emphasizes that even shield users and healers like Zhongli and Kuki Shinobu will not have great compatibility with Hydro Archon’s kit and must be avoided when building her teams. However, her HP drain Elemental Burst perfectly complements Baizhu’s kit. On the second page, Chinese leakers talk about how Hydro Archon kit mechanics revolve around gravity. Although sources use the term corrosion, it is still unclear what type of effect is granted to all characters in the field. Furthermore, the leaks don’t mention how Hydro Archon’s burst affects the enemies inside the zone. The community is also wondering if she will have any healing abilities to compensate for the HP drain or will this new mechanic add more playstyle and variation to teams.
Remember, these are very early informations and have been flagged as questionable by credible sources. While Fontaine version 4.0 is rumored to launch in August 2023, the Hydro Archon might not appear until the version 4.2 update in November 2023.
