Version 6.5’s second phase is a dream pull window for Dendro mains, with the long-awaited rerun of Nefer and Lauma finally arriving. Now’s the perfect time to strengthen your Lunar-Bloom lineup, as the featured banners deliver a powerful mix of control, damage amplification, and flashy gameplay.
Phase 2 also brings the pair’s game-changing signature weapons and a fresh batch of events packed with rewards, including a free 4-star character and boosted farming efficiency. Let’s take a look!
Featured Characters: Nefer and Lauma
Nefer
A brilliant yet enigmatic figure from Sumeru, Nefer leads the Curatorium of Secrets and is known to possess foresight beyond mortal limits, making her one of the most intriguing minds in Genshin Impact’s lore. In combat, she plays like a calculated conductor of chaos, entering the Shadow Dance state through her Elemental Skill to gain mobility, interruption resistance, and access to her unique Charged Attack, Phantasm Performance. Instead of relying on traditional Bloom explosions, Nefer transforms Dendro cores into Seeds of Deceit to amplify her Elemental Burst.
Lauma
Known as the Moonchanter of the Frostmoon Scions, Lauma is a steadfast guardian whose connection to nature reflects her dual roles as mediator and protector in the lore. Her gameplay leans heavily into support and amplification, with her Charged Attack transforming her into a Spirit Envoy, enabling fluid movement while maintaining pressure. Her Elemental Skill summons a Frostgrove Sanctuary that not only deals Dendro damage but also reduces enemy Dendro and Hydro resistance, setting up stronger reactions for the team. Combined with her ability to enable Crit Bloom reactions, Lauma shines as a reaction-focused support who elevates the entire team’s damage ceiling.
The two will be accompanied by 4-star units Xingqiu, Kirara, and Jahoda in Phase 2, which is available until May 19, 2026.
Featured Weapons
Reliquary of Truth (5-star Catalyst)
Tailor-made for Nefer, this weapon delivers a hefty Crit DMG substat with layered buffs that reward precise rotations. It passively increases Crit Rate and grants a significant Elemental Mastery boost after using an Elemental Skill, which perfectly aligns with Nefer’s Shadow Dance entry. The real kicker comes from its Lunar-Bloom interaction, which triggers additional Crit DMG buffs that stack even higher when both effects are active. In practice, this weapon enhances Nefer’s entire gameplay loop: stronger setup, higher scaling, and devastating Burst windows once everything aligns.

Nightweaver’s Looking Glass (5-star Catalyst)
Lauma’s signature catalyst offers Elemental Mastery and teamwide amplification. It grants stacking EM buffs when the wielder deals Hydro or Dendro damage and when teammates trigger Lunar-Bloom reactions, making it incredibly easy to maintain uptime. When both buffs are active, it provides massive boosts to Bloom-related damage across the board, including Hyperbloom, Burgeon, and Lunar-Bloom. What makes it especially valuable is that these effects can trigger even when Lauma is off-field, cementing her role as a high-impact support option.
New Events
Where Waves Meet the Reef
This multi-part event offers a mix of strategy and action, giving players three distinct gameplay modes to tackle:
- Thwack ‘n Smack Defense Bots challenges you to build and combine mechanisms to defend your base.
- Pneumosia Barrage Countermeasure tests your timing and precision with projectile absorption mechanics.
- Fire Support Assault lets you rain destruction from afar using the Guizhong Ballista.
Completing challenges increases your Joint Exhibition Popularity, unlocking rewards like Primogems, a Crown of Insight, and even a free copy of Jahoda. There are also “Tales of Many” quests tied to the event, offering additional story content and rewards for those who want to dive deeper.
Ley Line Overflow
A returning favorite, this event is perfect for Travelers looking to stock up on resources. For a limited time, claiming rewards from Blossoms of Wealth and Revelation grants double the usual loot, up to three times per day. It’s one of the most efficient ways to farm Mora, EXP books, and character materials, so make sure to take advantage of it while it lasts.
Version 6.5 Phase 2 delivers a compelling mix of strategy and power, with Nefer and Lauma offering two distinct but highly synergistic approaches to Dendro—one focused on calculated bursts of damage, the other on amplifying the entire team’s output. Add in their strong signature weapons and a lineup of rewarding events, and this banner becomes an easy recommendation for players looking to invest in reaction-based teams.
If you’re planning to pull, make sure you’re fully stocked: top up your Genesis Crystals quickly and safely through Codashop, and get ready to bring Nefer and Lauma to your account before the banner disappears.
