✅ New Character Confirmed for 5.8: Ineffa (Electro – 5★ Support)
HoYoverse officially revealed Ineffa, a new 5-star Electro polearm user from Nod-Krai. Her design stands out with robotic features, metallic hands, and a mechanical aesthetic inspired by the Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop—a faction within Nod-Krai.
🔹 Kit Overview (Leaked):
- Elemental Skill: Summons a shield that also deals AoE Electro damage.
- Shield Scaling: Based on ATK.
- Passive Ability: Grants Elemental Mastery (EM) buff to allies.
- Role: Off-field Electro support, not suited for sub-DPS.
Ineffa is likely to appear in Phase 1 banners and may synergize well with elemental DPS units like Mualani.
🔁 Phase 1 Rerun Banners (Leaked)
🌊 Mualani – Hydro DPS (5★)
- Originally released in Version 5.0, Mualani returns for her first rerun.
- Playstyle: On-field Hydro DPS who builds up Wave Momentum for massive burst damage.
- Synergy with Ineffa: Great Electro-Charged potential; Ineffa’s shield protects Mualani during long uptime.
While she’s not quite as dominant as Neuvillette, Mualani is a great Hydro DPS option if you missed her initial release.
🔁 Phase 2 Rerun Banners (Leaked)
🍃 Chasca – Anemo Bow (5★)
- Powerful Anemo DPS focused on Swirl reactions.
- Can infuse attacks with Pyro, Hydro, Electro, or Cryo without team setup.
- High-mobility skill that enhances both combat and exploration.
❄️ Citlali – Cryo Support/Shielder (5★)
- Specializes in Cryo application and shield defense.
- Ideal for Melt and Frozen teams due to Pyro and Hydro RES shred mechanics.
- Strong potential as a Cryo utility support.
Both characters would be making their first rerun appearance in Version 5.8 if these leaks hold true.
🧠 Banner Summary: Genshin 5.8
Phase | Character | Role | Element | Rarity | Banner Type |

🔮 Final Thoughts
The Genshin Impact 5.8 banners are shaping up to be some of the best yet. With the exciting debut of Ineffa and long-awaited reruns for Mualani, Chasca, and Citlali, players will have excellent opportunities to strengthen their teams before the full release of Nod-Krai in Version 6.0.
Keep in mind that the final banner lineup may still change before the 5.8 livestream, but these leaks seem reliable based on current beta testing information.
