Genshin Impact version 2.7 will introduce Kuki Shinobu as a playable four-star character. As per leakers, she will be featured in a banner during the second half of the update.

Kuki Shinobu is a four-star Electro Sword user with healing capabilities. She is undoubtedly a unique unit and players are excited to unlock her. However, unlocking a character is just the first step. To unleash their true potential, players are expected to ascend their level and talents.

On that note, here's everything to know about Kuki Shinobu and her ascension materials in Genshin Impact.


Kuki Shinobu's ascension materials in Genshin Impact

To fully ascend Kuki Shinobu, players will have to farm the following items:

Naku Weed x168

Naku Weed is a local specialty of Inazuma and is primarily found in the Tatarasuna region. Only Yoimiya and Kuki Shinobu use this item for ascension.

Naku Weeds can be grown in the Teapot Realm as well. The Path Of Value: Luxuriant Glebe item is essentially to do so.

Kuki Shinobu's abilities in Genshin Impact

Kuki Shinobu is an Electro Sword user who can heal party members with her Elemental Skill.

Elemental Skill- Sanctifying Ring

Shinobu creates a Ring of Sanctification, but loses a part of her HP. The ring deals Electro DMG to nearby opponents and has these properties:

  • Follows the active character.
  • Deals Electro DMG to nearby opponents every 1.5 seconds and heals active character based on Shinobu's max HP.

Elemental Burst

Creates a barrier and deals AoE Electro DMG to every opponent in the area. The damage dealt is based on Shinobu's max HP. If her HP is less than 50%, the burst lasts longer.

The Energy Cost for this ability is 60 and the cooldown is 15 seconds.

All in all, it is evident that Kuki Shinobu has the potential to be a great support character in Genshin Impact. Based on the information provided, she seems to be a sub DPS unit who can also provide heals when characters need them the most.
