TheGenshin Impact5.3 leaks aboutMavuika’s Elemental Skill has already presented one major issue that will drastically impact gameplay with some characters if it is not fixed before her official release in early January. The Pyro Archon has been confirmed to be a new playable character arriving in HoYoverse’s action RPG in the next update. Along with Citlali, who has also been confirmed as a new playable unit, Mavuika is among the fournew characters inGenshin Impact5.3, which should prove to be a big patch for players looking to expand their roster of available heroes.
As is the case with all other Archons, Mavuika is expected to be a 5-star character.She has been confirmed to use Pyro as her element in combat, which reflects her role as the Pyro Archon. HoYoverse hasn’t confirmed more details about the character other than the fact that she rides a motorcycle, but the leaks coming from the Version 5.3 beta tests are revealing most details about her. In fact, theMavuika leaks inGenshin Impact5.3point toward a promising Pyro DPS and sub-DPS unit, but the tests have also revealed a big problem with her Elemental Skill.
Mavuika’s Leaked Elemental Skill Has A Range Problem In Genshin Impact
When Flying, Her Ability Does Not Reach Enemies
While the leaked Elemental Skill used by Mavuika should be the central part of her rotation, it has already presented a big problem. As seen in leaked footage provided by the leaker known as GI Kitchen,Mavuika’s Elemental Skill has an issue when it comes to hitting targets due to a limitation on her vertical range. While enemies on the same level as the character, horizontally, are affected by the attacks of her leaked Skill, when Chasca takes to the air, the Pyro DMG from Mavuika does not hit opponents inGenshin Impact.
Genshin Impact 5.3’s Leaked Weekly Boss Is Straight Out Of Souls Games & That’s Incredible
Several details about the new weekly boss being added with Genshin Impact 5.3 have emerged and it seems heavily inspired by Soulslike games.
The leak was shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” onReddit, and, in addition to the footage, there were also comments made by the leaker known as Uncle Balls in response to the post.The post mentions that the range on Mavuika’s Elemental Skill is 10 units, but that this is applied differently when the active character is at a different elevation. As such, when the active character like Wanderer orChasca inGenshin Impactstarts flying, the range on Mavuika’s leaked Skill starts being reduced, thus not reaching enemies as it should.
Mavuika’s Leaked Skill Could Negatively Affect Team Comps In Genshin Impact
The Character’s Issue Seems Like A Bug Rather Than A Deliberate Choice
The leaked issue with Mavuika’s Elemental Skill is a very terrible one. Chasca is one of the main DPS units from Natlan and, given the synergy that Natlan characters have due to the Nightsoul mechanics, Mavuika’s off-field Pyro DMG must work alongside Chasca.If Chasca can’t rely on Mavuika’s DMG, then characters who main the Anemo DPS may not have a reason to pull for the Pyro Archon at all. Additionally, Mavuika is expected to be the core character in Natlan teams, as mostNatlan characters inGenshin Impacthave some bonus when interacting with Pyro.
Genshin Impact 5.3’s Leaked Events Show The Next Update Will Be Massive
New leaks about Genshin Impact 5.3 include details about the upcoming events and what looks like the Lantern Rite, which should make for a huge patch.
Kinich, for example, gains bonuses when Burning or Burgeon Reactions are triggered, whereas Mualani also benefits from Vaporize Reactions.These require interaction with Pyro and Mavuika is expected to be the best in this category thanks to her empowerment from other Natlan characters who consume Nightsoul points and trigger Nightsoul Bursts, for example. Overall, the issue with Mavuika’s leaked Elemental Skill should not stand if the character is set to be one of the most important character releases inGenshin Impactthis year.
The problem with Mavuika’s Elemental Skill not reaching enemies when the active character takes on a different height than who they are combating genuinely feels more like a bug requiring fine-tuning rather than a poor design choice.
Mavuika is building up to be an incredible playable character, as all Archons in the game have received some sort of special treatment when it comes to their gameplay kit. Nahida is still one of the strongest Dendro characters around, while Furina’s hybrid gameplay kit makes her a staple in several team comps.Mavuika’s leaked hybrid build as both a Nightsoul-focused Pyro main DPS and an off-field Pyro sub-DPS makes her sound like an interesting pull, as she would meaningfully expand the options for players, much like thePyro Traveler inGenshin Impact5.3.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks Hint At Update You’ve Been Waiting For Ages To Happen
A great system optimization update for Artifacts may occur in Genshin Impact 5.3, allowing players to have a better time when farming them.
However, as reliable as the leaks may seem, they should still be taken with a grain of salt. As was previously mentioned, the issue with Mavuika’s leaked Skill feels more like a bug than a design choice, and it may be corrected before her official release within a few weeks. If that is the case, players may have the chance to obtain one of the most reliable off-field Pyro characters so far. More details should arise as the beta tests continue andGenshin Impactmoves ever closer to Version 5.3.
