Genshin Impact 5.8 free event weapon details, as per leaks

Well-known Genshin leakers spletnik_fatui and HomDGCat have recently shared information regarding a free event weapon that will be awarded to all players in Genshin Impact 5.8. This weapon is possibly a 4-star Claymore named Flame-Forged Insight and is expected to have the following stats:

• Base ATK: 510
• Secondary stat: 165.4 Elemental Mastery

If the leaks are valid, Flame-Forged Insight has a decent Base ATK for a 4-star weapon, and its Elemental Mastery secondary stat implies that it can be used by characters who focus on triggering a variety of Elemental Reactions.

This Claymore also has the following passive effect (at Refinement Rank 1), as per the latest leaks:

"After Lunar-Charged, Electro-Charged, and Bloom reactions are triggered, 12 Elemental Energy is restored for the user, and their Elemental Mastery is increased by 60 for the next 15 seconds. This effect can be triggered once every 15 seconds, and can take place even when the character equipping this weapon is off-field."

Lunar-Charged is supposedly a new Elemental Reaction that is expected to be launched in Genshin Impact 5.8. As seen from the passive effect of the weapon, units that scale off Elemental Mastery will be the best wielders for this Claymore. There are currently quite a few characters in the game who could also make good use of this free weapon, such as Beidou, Kaveh, and Dori.
