Genshin Impact: Iansan kit, skills, and more!

Recent leaks have suggested that version 5.5 will introduce two new characters to Genshin Impact, featuring both new character Varesa and the long-awaited release of Iansan. The iconic character will be a four-star electro character. Here is everything you need to know about Iansan's kit and skills.

She is one of the many heroes of Natlan and a member of the Collective of Plenty tribe, which has yet to be introduced to Genshin Impact. She was first introduced as an NPC, but now leaks have confirmed the suspicions of many: Iansan will be a playable character soon. Initially, it was thought that Iansan would be a five-star, but it seems that HoYoverse changed her rarity mid-path.

So far, there is still no information about how can you acquire Iansan. However, it's most likely that Iansan will be out alongside the five-star banners Varesa and the other no-confirmed character.

Check out all of Iansan's skills in her kit.

Iansan deals up to three consecutive spear strikes if tapping the normal attack button. Holding it down instead makes Iansan consume stamina to lunge forward, and deal damage to opponents along the way. As with most plunging attacks, Iansan strikes the ground below dealing AOE (area of effect) damage upon impact, and damaging any enemies caught on her path to the ground.

Nightsoul State: Swift Stormflight

While in her Nightsoul's Blessing state, Iansan's charged attack will be transformed into the formidable Swift Stormflight, consuming a certain amount of Stamina to stomp fiercely down, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AOE Electro Damage.

Iansan charges forward a certain distance, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Electro Damage to all opponents in her path. After this is done, using a normal attack will trigger one Swift Stormflight stomp that won't consume Stamina, and after this Skill is used, Iansan will regain Nightsoul points up to her maximum and enter her Nightsoul's Blessing state.

Nightsoul's Blessing: Iansan

Iansan continuously consumes Nightsoul points. If she runs out or uses this Skill again, her Nightsoul's Blessing state will end. Iansan's Blessing state has the following effects:

Iansan's stomping foot shatters the very earth with 'Power', dealing Nightsoul-aligned AOE Electro Damage. Iansan then whips out her 'Limited-Edition Kinetic Energy Scale (For Workouts)'. When this Skill is used, Iansan will gain 15 Nightsoul points and enter her Nightsoul's Blessing state. When the Kinetic Energy Scale leaves the field, Iansan's Nightsoul's Blessing state will also end.

Kinetic Energy Scale

The Kinetic Energy Scale will follow a character around, boosting the attack of your current active party member in different ways based on Iansan's Nightsoul points:

Additionally, the Scale will log the distance your currently active character (excluding Iansan) has moved so long as it is active, restoring Nightsoul points to Iansan every second based on the distance moved in the previous second.

The Scale will disappear once Iansan's Nightsoul's Blessing state ends. It will disappear one second after you cease being in a state of combat. While it is active, Iansan's Nightsoul's Blessing state will not end even if she is not on the field.

After Nightsoul points have been fully depleted and Iansan is on the field, she will switch to using Phlogiston to maintain her Nightsoul's Blessing. While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, Nightsoul Transmission: Iansan can be used.

When the current active character is sprinting or in movement modes caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, switching to Iansan will trigger the following: Iansan enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state and obtains 25 Nightsoul points. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10 seconds by your party.

After Swift Stormflight hits opponents, Iansan will gain the Precise Movement effect for 15s. During this time, her ATK is increased by 20%, and whenever she regains Nightsoul points through the Kinetic Energy Scale in her Elemental Burst, The Three Principles of Power, she will gain 1 extra Nightsoul point.

Additionally, when your current active party member consumes or restores Nightsoul points, the extra Nightsoul points she gains the next time she restores Nightsoul points via the Scale will be increased to 4. This effect can occur once every 2.8s. "Precise Movement" will expire when Iansan's Nightsoul's Blessing state does.

When a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Iansan will obtain the Warming Up effect for 10s. During this time, when Iansan restores at least 1 Nightsoul point, she will also heal your currently active character for 60% of her ATK. This effect can be triggered once every 2.8s.

While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, regain 10 Phlogiston when Phlogiston levels drop below 50%. This can occur once every 10s.

When Iansan is in combat and her Nightsoul's Blessing state, she will restore 15 Elemental Energy for every six Nightsoul points she consumes. This effect can trigger once every 18 seconds.

When using her Elemental Burst, Iansan will also gain the Precise Movement effect from her 'Enhanced Resistance Training' Passive Talent for 15 seconds. Additionally, if Iansan is off-field while Precise Movement is active, she will also increase the currently active character's attack by 30%.

Increases the Level of Iansan's Elemental Skill by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.

When the 'Kinetic Energy Scale' is present, Iansan gains two stacks of Surging Force after the currently active character (excluding Iansan) uses their Elemental Burst. This lasts until the Scale leaves the field, and Surging Force can be gained once per Scale summoning. Whenever Iansan restores Nightsoul points via the Scale, she will consume one Surging Force stack and restore four additional Nightsoul points. Additionally, if her Nightsoul restoration overflows, Iansan will gain 50% of the overflow the next time she restores Nightsoul points via the Scale.

Increases the Level of Iansan's Elemental Burst by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.

The Kinetic Energy Scale's duration is increased by three seconds. Additionally, when Iansan triggers Nightsoul point restoration, if there is any overflow, she will gain the 'Extreme Force' effect, which increases the damage dealt by the currently active character by 25% for three seconds.
