In the latest updated Genshin Impact 4.0 version, the Kingdom of Fontaine is finally opened. As a huge version update, Genshin 4.0 brought us a bunch of new stuffs. For example, new bosses “Icewind Suite” and “Emperor of Fire and Iron”, new artifacts “Golden Troupe” and Marechaussee Hunter”, also the new weapons “Finale of the Deep”, “Rightful Reward” and “Song of Stillness” etc. In terms of game mechanics, the Genshin 4.0 also introduces the diving function that everyone is most excited about. In addition to these updates, I believe that what everyone is most looking forward to is the new characters. Genshin Impact 4.0 brought us three new characters which are “Lyney”, “Lynette” and “Freminet”. In this blog post, I will give a comprehensive introduction to Lyney, the 5-star Fontaine magician.

“This is no mere illusion, tis I, Lyney! The greatest magician in all Teyvat! How are we feeling today? Excited? Surprised?”

In Genshin Impact, Lyney is a playable Pyro character. Lyney is Lynette's twin brother and Fontaine's great magician. He is talented and articulate. Lyney has completed missions for the House of the Hearth and declared that he will eventually succeed their "Father" after their parents passed away and after being saved from an abusive lord by them.

Raise your Lyney

This is the total cost of how you raise Lyney to max Ascensions and Stats plus max Talent Upgrade. If you love Lyney, then prepare these materials to raise him. In general. As a brand new character, Lyney's mechanism and character story are very attractive. So he's definitely a character worth raising.

How to play Lyney

Lyney’s basic gameplay revolves around HP, Charged Attack and Elemental Skill. Lyney’s level 2 charged attack need to cost HP to create extra damage and also summon a “Grin-Malkin Hat”, in the same time to to obtain 1 Prop Surplus stack. When Lyney uses his Elemental Skill, he can restore his HP according to the stacks count and also explode the “Grin-Malkin Hat”. Therefore, when Lyney in a single attack damage carry system, he needs to rely on his level 2 charged attack to create main damage for the team, in the same time obtain as much stacks count as you can to restore his HP and explode the “Grin-Malkin Hat”. The ideas are somewhat similar to Hu Tao. However, when Lyney in a duo attack damage carry system, then his “Grin-Malkin Hat” can be use as a taunt tool to improve the environment for others to create damage. Based on the information currently known, the game mechanics of many characters in Fontaine revolve around HP. So, let’s get familiar with this kind of gameplay of deducting and returning HP by ourself as soon as possible.

Lyney Cosplay

Genshin Impact is a game that is inextricably linked to cosplay culture. The launch of Lyney is bound to become a new trend in the cosplay world. Lyney is Fontaine's greatest magician, his costume is also very exquisite. As a great magician who attracts much attention, Lyney seems to be full of sweet gifts that make people curious. SanyMuCos used exquisite textured matte stretch leather to restore Lyney's jumpsuit and shawl. The overall shape of the clothing is slightly loose for comfort. The three-dimensional pattern on the shawl uses three-dimensional silicone heat transfer technology to highlight the sense of layering. Even the accessories are embroidered. So let’s put on this suit and explore the righteous Fontaine!
