Following the launch of the Sumeru region in Genshin ImpactHoYoverse has surprised us by launching many new characters, being Dehya one of the most anticipated.
Especially mentioning that he is from the Eremite faction, this new character has a long history within the Sumeru region of the game, so we are not kidding that he will play an important role in the history of the region, and we will tell you all about it. What do we know.
And it is that, during the last live transmission 3.5, HoYoverse revealed more information about the Pyro-elemental mercenary. So if you’re looking for the latest details on the next Pyro character, be sure to check out all of these details.
First of all: Who is Dehya in Genshin Impact?
Dehya belongs to the faction of hermits, a band of warriors who swear allegiance to no nation. Instead, these characters operate as mercenaries, performing tasks for the highest payer, creating no bonds with either. The exact details of his lore are still unknown, but we believe that Dehya will have quite a role in Sumeru’s history.
What are Dehya’s abilities in Genshin Impact?
HoYoverse has confirmed that Dehya is a 5-star Claymore user. Her combat abilities were revealed in the 3.5 live broadcast.
Confirmed Skills:
Dehya’s Elemental Ability: Molten Hell
This ability will activate if there is no Fiery Sanctum created by Dehya herself present at the time. Grants AoE Pyro DMG and creates a field known as the Fiery Sanctum.
This ability will activate if a Fiery Sanctum field created by Dehya herself already exists. Dehya will perform a jump attack, dealing AoE Pyro DMG before recreating a Fiery Sanctum field at her new position. A Fiery Sanctum field created in this way will inherit the original duration of the previous field. Only 1 Reaching Llama can be used for the duration of a single Fiery Sanctum field.
When an opponent inside a Fiery Sanctum field receives DMG, the field will unleash a coordinated attack, dealing AoE Pyro DMG to them. This effect can be activated once every 2.5 seconds. Characters active within this field have their interrupt resistance increased, and when said characters take DMG, a portion of that damage will be mitigated and flow into Blood of Redmane.
Dehya will then take this DMG for 10 seconds. When the mitigated DMG stored by Redmane’s Blood reaches or exceeds a certain percentage of Dehya’s Max HP, she will stop mitigating DMG this way. Only 1 Fiery Sanctum created by Dehya herself can exist at a time.
- Dehya Elemental Blast: The Lioness’s Bite
Unleashing his fiery rage and throwing his sword aside as an inconvenience, Dehya enters the Blazing Lioness state and gains resistance to interrupt. In this state, Dehya will automatically and continuously unleash Flame-Mane’s fists, dealing Pyro DMG, and when its duration ends, she will unleash an Incineration Drive kick, dealing AoE Pyro DMG.
While in this state, his normal Attacks will be replaced by Roaring Flurry. Triggering Roaring Flurry within 0.4 after each hit of Fire Mane Fist will increase the activation speed of the next hit of Fire Mane Fist. If a Fiery Sanctum field created by Dehya’s own elemental ability, Molten Inferno, exists, when this ability is unleashed, Dehya will retrieve it and then create another field once Blazing Lioness’s duration expires. This field will then take the duration of the retrieved field at the time of its retrieval.
The story behind Dehya
Dehya will have a featured story mission in the game. While little is known about the mission, it has been confirmed that it will be called the ‘Mantichora Chapter’ and will involve Dehya providing aid to his tribe.
What is the release date for Dehya in Genshin Impact?
Dehya will be officially released during Update 3.5 Phase 1, which will be available from March 1, 2023, that is, at the same time as Cyno’s banner, and both banners will share the same 4-star characters, however , It has not been revealed who they will be so far.
