“Detailed Explanation of the New Ice Element Character Silk in Genshin Impact Version 5.7: Skill Mechanism and Exclusive Weapon Analysis and Constellation Recommendation”
In the upcoming version 5.7 of Genshin Impact, a new character is about to debut. She is the five-star ice element one-handed sword character – Silk. This ice element warrior from the Water Country, with her unique fighting style and powerful skill combination, will surely become the target of many players to draw cards. Here, we will analyze Silk’s various skills, exclusive weapons and constellation bonuses in detail for you, so that you can better play her potential in the game.
First, let’s take a look at Silk’s basic character profile. She is a five-star ice element character who uses a one-handed sword as a weapon, with the elemental attribute of ice and the Eye of God as the ice element. Her bonus attribute is critical damage, with an initial value of 38.4%. These basic attributes have already allowed her to show strong single-target output potential.
Next, let’s take a look at Silk’s exclusive weapon – Cang Yao. This is a one-handed sword with a basic attack power of 608 and a basic critical rate of 33.1%. Cang Yao’s exclusive effect is called “Blessing of the White Mountain”. After using the elemental combat skill, Silk’s attack power will increase by 24% within 12 seconds. If Silk’s elemental energy is 0 at this time, the attack power will increase by 24% again, and the critical damage will increase by 40%. The superposition of this exclusive effect allows Silk to maintain a strong output ability in battle.
Now, let’s take a closer look at Silk’s skill system. Her skill design is inspired by the combat style of “Extreme Evil Knight”, which is mainly based on fast movement and high burst damage. These skills are not only suitable for single-target output, but also perform well in group battles.
The first is the normal attack-Extreme Evil Skill Break. Silk can perform up to five consecutive attacks, and these attack methods have their own characteristics. In the normal attack, she can also use heavy attacks and falling attacks. Heavy attacks will consume a certain amount of physical strength, throw out a spinning crystal gun, and cause damage to the enemy in front. The falling attack is to fall from the air and hit the ground, not only attacking the enemies on the falling path, but also causing range damage when landing. The combination of these attack methods makes Silkock full of flexibility and destructive power when facing the enemy.
Next is the elemental combat skill – Extreme Skill·Flash. This skill can be used in two ways: tap and hold. When tapping, Silkock will gain 45 points of “Snake’s Cunning” and switch to “Seven Phases and One Flash” mode. In this mode, her fighting style will change, releasing stronger skill effects. When long-pressing, Silkock also gains 45 points of “Snake’s Cunning” and enters a continuous fast movement state. In this state, her ability to resist interruption is greatly improved, she can control the direction of movement, and end the fast movement in advance by casting the skill again. This flexible mobility allows Silkock to shuttle through the enemy group as accurately as checkers in battle, looking for the best time to attack.
Elemental Burst – Extreme Skill·Destroy is one of Silkock’s most powerful burst skills. Unlike other characters who need to consume elemental energy to cast elemental burst, Silkock releases this skill by consuming “Snake’s Cunning”. When she has at least 50 points of “Serpent’s Cunning”, she can cast this skill, tearing the space in front of her and performing high-speed continuous slashes, causing ice elemental area damage. Moreover, every point of “Serpent’s Cunning” above 50 points when casting will increase the damage of this elemental burst, and up to 12 points of “Serpent’s Cunning” can be counted in this way.
