Buffs for Nahida and Layla revealed by Genshin Impact 3.2 leaks

Nahida buffs

Genshin Impact 3.2 leaks have revealed some massive buffs for Nahida and Layla, with Nahida, in particular, gaining a ton from these buffs. The first set of buffs for Nahida focus on increasing the strength of her Elemental Skill. Her skill has had its trigger interval increased from 1.9 seconds to 2.5 seconds, which has effectively removed the internal cooldown on the ability. Nahida will now essentially apply Dendro every time her Elemental Skill ticks on an enemy.

This means that players will be able to create tons of reactions by utilizing her Elemental Skill, making her an amazing option for teams that focus on reactions like Spread or Hyperbloom. To aid this, her Elemental Skill's linking effect (known as the Seed of Skandha) has also had its duration increased from 20 to 25 seconds, giving fans even longer to apply Dendro to enemies and create reactions with her skill.

Her passive ability was also increased, granting even more Elemental Mastery to characters within the field of her Elemental Burst. This means that players can gain up to 250 Elemental Mastery simply by being within the range of Nahida's massive burst, which is easy to do given its constant uptime and huge area of effect.

Her Elemental Burst also received some buffs, increasing the value of the buffs that Nahida gains from having certain elements in her party. Fans will need to create their teams with these buffs in mind if they want to get the most out of Nahida's burst effects:

  • Pyro: DMG Bonus 11.1%/16.7% -> 14.9%/22.3%
  • Electro: CD Decrease 0.17s/0.25s -> 0.25s/0.37s
  • Hydro: Duration Extension
  • 1 Character 2.22s to 3.34s
  • 2 Characters 3.34s to 5.02s

Layla buffs

Layla has also received some big buffs to her abilities in Genshin Impact 3.2, first improving her Elemental Burst. The buffs focus on increasing the uptime of her burst while lowering its damage. The Energy Cost of the ability has gone down from 60 to 40, while the cooldown has been decreased from 15 seconds to 12 seconds.

This means that players will be able to keep Layla's Elemental Burst up at all times, as its duration is also 12 seconds. This provides a potent source of Cryo damage, making Layla an amazing choice for a Cryo support.

Unfortunately, the massive buffs to her Elemental Burst uptime have come at the cost of damage from her skills, and Layla will do a bit less damage with all of her abilities. Still, her burst having a 100% uptime definitely makes up for these changes.
