Skirk kit in Genshin Impact leaked
Skirk is one of the characters in the silhouettes shown during the version 5.3 livestream. She is expected to be released in version 5.7 as a Cryo character.
According to the leaks via Seele, Skirk is likely to be a Sword user. This shouldn’t be surprising since she is usually referred to as the “mysterious swordswoman” and Childe’s master inGenshin Impact. The leaker also claims that Skirk is a pure main DPS unit that scales with ATK.
Next, let’s take a look at Skirk’s abilities, as per theleaks by Seele:
Elemental Skill
Skirk’s Elemental Skill has two versions, which have the following effects:
Serpent’s Cunning is the new energy type for Skirk, which she uses to charge her Elemental Burst. Meanwhile, the Sevenfold Flash is an enhanced state that boosts her abilities.
Elemental Burst
Upon casting Elemental Burst, Skirk consumes the Serpent’s Cunning. When she has at least 50 Serpent’s Cunning points, she consumes all of them and performs rapid consecutive slashes, dealing AoE Cryo DMG. For every Serpent’s Cunning point above 50, up to a max of 12 points, Skirk’s Elemental Burst DMG is increased.
Additionally, when she is in the Sevenfold Flash state, her Burst is replaced with an enhanced version that doesn’t consume any Serpent’s Cunning. And upon activating the burst, Skirk gains the Withering Effect that lasts until the end of the Sevenfold Flash state. After you unlock Skirk’s first passive, she will also absorb nearby Phantom Rifts when casting the special Elemental Burst.
The Withering Effect has the following effects:
Skirk’s Elemental Burst looks pretty interesting as it increases her special Burst and Enhanced Normal Attacks DMG.
Talents
Listed below are Skirk’s potential talents inGenshin Impact:
Based on Skirk’s leaked kit, she relies on her enhanced Normal Attacks and Elemental Burst to deal DMG. Furthermore, unlike other characters in the game, her Elemental Burst depends on her special energy bar instead of the Elemental Energy.
This also makes sense since the new Finale of the Deep Galleries artifact set is expected to be Skirk’s best-in-slot set, and the equipping unit must have 0 Elemental Energy to trigger all the bonus effects.
