The winds of change are blowing across Teyvat once again, and Genshin Impact’s Version 6.0 Phase 2 is looking to electrify your party setups in more ways than one. The star of this update is the mysterious new 5-star, Flins, whose kit shows the full potential of the recently added Lunar-Charged reaction. Pairing this with a rerun of the ever-reliable Hydro queen Yelan, players have a chance to build some of the most versatile and hard-hitting teams we’ve seen yet.
In this article, we’ll break down the highlights of Phase 2: the debut of Flins and his signature weapon, Yelan’s comeback, their 4-star companions in the new banners, and the fun new events that will keep you busy. Let’s dive in!
New Character: Flins
Flins, the Lightkeeper of Nod-Krai, is as enigmatic as he is powerful. Standing watch over the northern lighthouse and its surrounding graveyard, this cultured and courtly gentleman comes armed with his Pocztowy Demonspear and the arcane power of his lamp. On the battlefield, Flins swaps between quick spear strikes and devastating Electro-infused attacks that channel Lunar-Charged elemental reactions, making him a versatile main DPS with high AoE potential. His Manifest Flame form ramps up interruption resistance, while his Elemental Burst delivers layered, thunderous explosions of Electro damage that are perfect for reaction-heavy comps.
But he’s not arriving alone! Flins’ banner is paired with a rerun of Yelan, the quick-witted Hydro bow user from Liyue. Known for her off-field Hydro application and scaling damage, Yelan is a perfect fit for Vaporize, Electro-Charged, and now, Lunar-Charged teams. Joining them in Phase 2 are the 4-stars Aino, Sucrose, and Dori, rounding out a lineup of strong supports and utility picks for all sorts of team compositions.
Phase 2 runs from September 30 to October 21, 2025, so mark your calendars and start saving those Primogems!

New Weapon: Bloodsoaked Ruins
What’s a new 5-star character without a signature weapon to match? Enter Bloodsoaked Ruins, the best-in-slot ATK stick for Flins. With a massive 674 Base ATK and 22.1% Crit Rate bonus, this weapon takes Flin’s potential to new heights. Its passive effect, Mournful Tribute, boosts Lunar-Charged DMG by a whopping 36% right after using an Elemental Burst. As if that weren’t enough, triggering a Lunar-Charged reaction also grants an extra Crit DMG boost and Elemental Energy restoration, ensuring he keeps his rotations smooth.
Simply put: if you’re planning to make Flins your centerpiece, this weapon is the ultimate way to push his capabilities as a main DPS.
New Events

Paimon’s at it again, and this time she’s dragging you into a Mondstadt garden where Dodoco’s latest chaotic game is in full swing! In this playful event, you’ll team up with other Travelers and lob Jumpy Dumpties at waves of Spikey Fish and hulking bosses. The more stages you clear and the higher your scores, the better the rewards. Complete the stages to win Primogems, EXP books, and even a Serenitea Pot furnishing to spruce up your realm.

Phase 2 of Version 6.0 feels like a feast for both theorycrafters and meta chasers. With Flins bringing the full glory of Lunar-Charged, Yelan returning to prove why she’s still one of the strongest Hydro units in the game, and events stacked with Primogems and goodies, there’s plenty to keep Travelers busy this season!
