Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks have revealed a lot about Gorou and his gameplay, as well as other crucial details like his release date, ascension materials, and more. Fans of the Inazuman archer will want to discover as much as they can about Gorou as soon as possible so that they can gather materials and make their teams ready for him.

Gorou appears to be one of the strongest Geo supports ever added to Genshin Impact, with some incredible utility and talents, and players that primarily use Geo on their teams should not neglect him. The following is the current state of knowledge.

Gorou gameplay and more in Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks

The new 4-star Geo Archer Gorou’s gameplay has been released early, and fans can see it in the tweet above. Both his idle animations, as well as his powerful Elemental Skill and Burst, are seen in the movie.

Gorou’s skills can provide a lot of useful benefits to his squad, especially if he has Geo teammates. Gorou’s bonuses are stronger with each Geo teammate he has, so putting together a team of four Geo characters is a terrific idea.

His skill and burst let him to protect and amp up the damage of his Geo teammates, making him an excellent match for Noelle or Arataki Itto. Fans of Itto will be pleased to get Gorou as they prepare to summon the formidable Oni.

All of Gorou’s essential ingredients are now available in-game, so players can start farming for him right away. Light Talent books, as well as Specter drops, will be needed by fans. Gorou will also require Perpetual Hearts and Prithiva Topaz gems from the Perpetual Mechanical Array.

Finally, Gorou will need Sango Pearls which can be found throughout Watatsumi Island. Those who intend on using Gorou in their parties will want to take advantage of this headstart and grab these materials early.

Last but not least, Gorou will require Sango Pearls, which can be collected all throughout Watatsumi Island. Those who plan to use Gorou in their parties should take advantage of this head start and get these supplies as soon as possible.

Gorou is set to debut in the second half of the 2.3 update, which means he’ll be available in December. Fans should keep an eye on Genshin Impact’s official accounts, as well as our website, for any new information on release dates and other details.

Because Genshin Impact 2.3 is still in beta, anything might happen between now and the actual release.

What else is in the new leak?

Two new artefact sets will be available at a familiar location’s new domain, according to recent Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks.

Seirai Island, interestingly enough, is the place. The domain located near Fort Hiraumi, between the two Teleport Waypoints, if the leak is correct. Husk of Opulent Dreams and Divine Chorus, two artefact sets related with this realm, have also been leaked.

Aside from that, Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks showed the two-piece and four-piece effects of the game. If these insights are correct, they will be acceptable for personalities who are completely different from each other.

Geo characters with a high DEF should use Husk of Opulent Dreams.

In Genshin Impact 2.2, Seirai Island does not have this domain. As a result, travellers who visit this location right now will find nothing. Fans will have to wait for the new domain to be introduced in the Genshin Impact 2.3 upgrade.

In Genshin Impact 2.3, the main benefit of this new domain is that players can farm two new artefact sets. The enemy lineup, on the other hand, has remained a mystery.

Husk of Opulent Dreams is a brand new artifact set to debut in Genshin Impact 2.3. Its two-piece effect gives the user DEF +30%. Its four-piece effect, however, is geared with Geo users in mind. 

The new effects of this updated artefact collection are demonstrated in the Reddit video above. The two-piece bonus for Divine Chorus is +15 percent Healing Bonus. It comes with a four-piece set as a bonus (according to Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks)

This artefact set’s user can heal a party member for three seconds, and a Sea-Dyed Foam will appear. It will save the amount of HP it recovers before inflicting DMG on adjacent opponents depending on 90% of what was healed.

Only once every 3.5 seconds can Sea-Dyed Foam spawn. They can only “gather” a maximum of 30,000 HP. At any given time, only one Sea-Dyed Foam can be active.
