HoYoverse's Genshin Impact has some of the most adorable and unique character designs in the entire gatcha game genre! Especially one of the upcoming units, Sigewinne, is hard to beat when it comes to her cuteness! However, HoYovsere can't really seem to make up their mind regarding Sigewinne's rarity, which leaves their community restless.
The Melusines are a new species, which was added into Genshin Impact with the 4.0 Fontaine update. These little creatures are very similar to us humans, but have some significant advantages regarding their skills and abilities!
Especially one Melusine has snuck into the hearts of the Genshin community in no time: Sigewinne! Many players were obsessed with right from the start of 4.0 but HoYoverse wouldn't quite tell us, when and how we will be able to get her! Luckily, they seem to finally made up their mind, making Sigewinne the limited 5-Star character for version 4.5!
Genshin Impact: Sigewinne Seems To Be A 5 Star Once Again
That Sigewinne should become a 5-star character, however, was not settled from the beginning. In the original roadmap, she was meant to be a 4-Star hydro healer and would be available alongside Chioro during the 4.5 limited banner.
However, it seems like HoYoverse decided to switch these two characters regarding their rarity, making Sigewinne the 5-Star and Chioro the 4-Star! Many of the recently leaked hints point towards this change.
Sigewinne herself looks a little clueless about her banner as well …
The leaks state that the 4.5 limited banner unit, will no longer be Chioro and no character from Inazuma whatsoever. Instead, a character, who was originally intended to be a 4-Star on the exact same banner, will be promoted to a 5-Star.
Many players are quite happy about this change, since they hope that our little Melusine nurse has a much more powerful and enjoyable kit like that! She will most likely stay a hydro healer, since that's the only role, that would fit to her regarding the Archon quest line.
Genshin Impact: Who Are Melusines
As mentioned above, Melusines are a fairly new species in Genshin Impact! One rather striking thing is especially their gender, because Melusines are an all female species!
There are some people in Fontaine who underestimate or even mock the Melusines because of their appearance. The truly wise people however, are extraordinarily kind to them and treat the Melusines with appreciation! Most notable is that the Ordainer of Inexorable Judgment, Neuvillette himself, is concerned about the Melusines and tries to help them in every way possible.
Melusines are beautiful creatures. They are the pride of Fontaine, Be sure to befriend them, and cause them no harm. – Neuvillette
The Melusine species would live inside Elynas's body until they met Neuvillette, who brought them outside to the rest of Fontaine as well! Neuvillette is almost like a father figure to all of them, and they show him their utmost appreciation.
A pretty cool new addition to Teyvat, don't you think? I can't wait until we can finally add a playable Melusine character to our roster when Sigewinne's banner goes live!
