Genshin Impact 2.4 Special Program Livestream showcased the new character Yun Jin, which was leaked before in previous weeks. There also was that one teaser during The Game Awards 2021 that featured Yun Jin (that sadly overshadowed Arataki Itto). The 4-Star Geo Polearm user will be arriving in Genshin Impact version 2.4 as soon as the version releases in January 2022. Let's take a look at Yun Jin's Character Gameplay Teaser below:
Yin Jun is a renowned opera singer, working as the Director of the Yun-Han Opera Troupe and works at the Heyu Tea House. She'll be crossing paths with the Traveler during the events of the Archon Quest Interlude Chapter in version 2.4.
In battle, Yun Jin is a Geo Polearm user. Just like in her different occupations, Yun Jin is very versatile on the battlefield. She works really well in parties with diverse elemental affinities, so you really wouldn't have to worry about elemental resonance with her around. Here are her abilities, as demonstrated in Yun Jin’s Character Gameplay Teaser:
Passive Talent: No Mere Traditionalist – The Normal Attack DMG Bonus granted by Flying Cloud Flag Formation is further increased by a percentage of Yun Jin's DEF when the party contains characters of different Elemental Types.
Her other Passive Talents lets her obtain double the product when achieving Perfect Cooking on Food with Adventure-related effects. That's because she really has to take care of the food she eats, so as to maintain her form as an actress. She can also unleash a Level 2 Charged Form when her Whirling Opener is used at the precise moment when she gets attacked, similar to how Beidou's Elemental Skill has a stronger effect when used just as she gets hit by an opponent.
Article Continues BelowElemental Skill: Opening Flourish – Yun Jin attacks her enemy in two different forms: depending on whether the Skill is tapped or held. When tapped, she flourishes her polearm in a cloud-grasping stance, dealing Geo DMG. When held, she takes up the Whirling Opener stance and charges up, forming a shield. Her DMG Absorption is dependent on her Max HP and has 150% effectiveness against Elemental DMG and Physical DMG. The shield lasts until she finishes unleashing her Elemental Skill. When released, its duration ends, or when the shield breaks, she unleashes the charged energy as an attack, dealing Geo DMG. Based on the time spent charging, she may deal a higher amount of DMG.
Special Effect: Flying Cloud Flag Formation – Yun Jin activates this when she uses her Elemental Burst. During this special effect, when Normal Attack DMG is dealt to opponents, Bonus DMG will be dealt based on Yun Jin's current DEF. The effects of this skill will be cleared after a set duration or after being triggered a specific number of times. When one Normal Attack hits multiple opponents, the effect is triggered multiple times according to the number of opponents hit. The number of times that the effect is triggered is counted independently for each member of the party with Flying Cloud Flag Formation.
Elemental Burst: Cliffbreaker's Banner – Yun Jin deals AoE Geo DMG to enemies around her and grants all nearby party members a Flying Cloud Flag Formation.
