Kamisato Ayato

The new addition is Kamisato Ayato, who is Ayaka’s older brother. Unlike his younger sister, Ayato is a Hydro sword user. He excels at dealing AOE damage while buffing the normal attacks of teammates.

His Elemental Skill leaves an explosive Hydro illusion behind as he shifts to a different spot and enters Takimeguri Kanka state. While in that state, Ayato’s normal attacks will deal AOE Hydro damage, and if they connect, he’ll gain stacks of Namisen to deal even more damage based on his max HP.

His Elemental Burst rains down Bloomwater Blades from the sky to deal Hydro damage and create a realm that increases the normal attack damage of teammates inside of it.

Venti

Genshin Impact 2.6 Venti (1)

Venti is finally back with a rerun in Genshin Impact 2.6. His banner will come in the first Event Wish alongside Ayato’s. This Anemo Archon is one of the best characters in the game because he can fit on nearly any team you create. He’s a five-star bow user who can deal with crowds effectively.

For those who don’t remember, his Elemental Skill summons a Wind Domain that deals AOE Anemo damage to enemies caught within it, and holding down the skill lifts Venti up into the air. His Elemental Burst sucks enemies in with a Stormeye and deals constant Anemo damage along with any one element that gets added in.

Kamisato Ayaka

Genshin Impact Ayaka (1)

Kamisato Ayaka is easily one of the very best DPS characters in Genshin Impact and she’s getting a rerun banner in the second Event Wish of the 2.6 update. She’s a Cryo sword user who hits like a truck when given the proper artifacts and gear.

Her Elemental Skill launches nearby opponents and deals instant AOE Cryo damage. It also enhances her normal and charged attacks for a short amount of time if you have her passive unlocked. Her Elemental Burst is where things get crazy. It summons a snowstorm that deals constant Cryo damage, then explodes.

That’s everything you need to know about all the revealed characters and banners from coming in Genshin Impact 2.6. Be sure to check out our guide wiki for more tips, tricks, and other useful info on the game whether you’re a veteran player or a newcomer.
