Genshin Impact 3.5 weapons: Beacon of the Reed Sea & Mailed Flower stats and materials

Genshin Impact has finally revealed all the skills and materials for the two new weapons to be released in the upcoming v3.5 update. One is Dehya's 5-star signature Claymore called the Beacon of the Reed Sea. It will likely be a limited item and will only be available on the Epitome Invocation banner during the first phase of the upcoming Genshin Impact patch.

Meanwhile, the other Claymore is a free weapon called the Mailed Flower, which can be obtained at max refinement by completing the flagship event of the next update, Windblume Festival.

The Beacon of the Reed Sea, a brand new Claymore in the Deshret Series of weapons, is Dehya's signature. It has a Base ATK of 608 as its main stat, which is decent for a 5-star weapon of this type, and a CRIT Rate second stat of 33.1%.

At the same time, the Beacon of the Reed Sea provides several buffs from its passive. At R1, when the wielder hits an opponent with their Elemental Skill, their ATK will be increased by 20% for eight seconds. The same effect can also be triggered upon taking DMG from enemy attacks.

Additionally, the Beacon of the Reed Sea will increase its holder's Max HP by 32% when they are not protected by a shield.

Mailed Flower is a new free weapon that any player can obtain by completing the Windblume Festival event in the upcoming Genshin Impact 3.5 update. For a 4-star, the new Claymore has more than decent skills. It has a Base ATK of 565 and provides 110 Elemental Mastery from its secondary stat.

At R1, upon hitting an enemy with Elemental Skill or triggering an Elemental Reaction, the wielder will gain an increase of 12% ATK and 48 Elemental Mastery. Since this Claymore will be obtainable at full refinement for free, the effects at R5 will be a 24% increase in ATK along with 96 Elemental Mastery. It can be a great F2P weapon choice for Diluc, who usually doesn't have a lot of options in Genshin Impact.
