Summary

    • Nefer is likely the first Dendro Catalyst main DPS centered on the Lunar-Bloom mechanic.
    • Her kit favors Elemental Mastery scaling and stack-based charged attacks.
    • Banner leaks place her alongside Arlecchino in Phase 1, followed by reruns of Furina in Phase 2.

Genshin Impact 6.1 leak suggests that Nefer, a mysterious individual from Nod-Krai, will arrive in Genshin Impact Version 6.1. In essence, she is reportedly a 5-Star Dendro Catalyst user designed to have a Lunar-Bloom reaction system. In this guide, let’s talk about the rumors, her kit, role, and possible team comps.  

Genshin Impact 6.1 Nefer, New Dendro Catalyst DPS Kit

Feature

Leaked Details

Element & Role

5★ Dendro Catalyst – On-field main DPS

Core Mechanic

Lunar-Bloom with direct damage cycle; EM-focused scaling

Passive Talent

Converts Bloom into Lunar-Bloom, granting “xx” stacks instead of Dendro Cores

Elemental Skill (E)

Consumes Verdant Dew and stacks to fire a Lunar-Bloom Charged Attack

Burst Potential

(Leaked via TOPUPlive) Burst reportedly reduces enemy Dendro Resist by 25%

If the Genshin Impact 6.1 leaks are true, Nefer is the first on-field Catalyst DPS on Genshin Impact that has the Lunar-Bloom Mechanic. Unlike other bloom users, she can skip the dendro core and directly gain stacks to amplify her attacks 

What Makes Nefer Stand Out From The Rest

  • Lunar-Bloom Specialist
    Nefer’s passive ensures all Bloom reactions trigger the Lunar-Bloom for added direct damage, which is beneficial to EM-heavy builds. This aligns her with the Nod-Krai region’s new elemental system.
  • Stack-Based Burst Damage
    When she consumes Verdant Dew and her passive stacks with it, her Elemental Skill turns charged attacks into potent Lunar-Bloom bursts. This suggests that she has a repeatable, skill-based DPS potential.
  • Supporting Team Buff
    Nefer is rumored to have a 25% reduction in enemy Dendro Resistance because of her burst, which ultimately benefits Dendro-focused team compositions. Moreover, Players who love experimenting with new reaction mechanics will likely find Nefer both powerful and fun to build.

Nefer’s Timeline & Banner Speculation for Genshin Impact 6.1

Genshin 6.1 leaks indicate the banner structure for Version 6.1 could feature:

Phase 1:

    • Nefer’s debut (5-Star Dendro Catalyst DPS)
    • Arlecchino rerun (5-star Pyro Polearm)

Phase 2:

    • Reruns of Furina (Hydro Archon) and possibly Escoffier (Pyro Bow)

The estimated release date for the Genshin Impact Version 6.1 is on October 22, 2025, which follows Hoyoverse’s 42-day update cycle. 

What We Know About Nefer’s Storyline

According to official lore, Nefer is the head of the Curatorium of Secrets in Nod-Krai. She’s described as a walking encyclopedia who not only knows history but also sees the present and can predict the future. Her name derives from an Egyptian hieroglyph meaning “perfect” or “beautiful,”.

These lore details deepen her mystique and hint at possible narrative importance within Nod-Krai’s unfolding story arc. Her rich lore makes her story just as appealing as her playstyle. 

Final Thoughts

Nefer’s rumored debut, according to the Genshin Impact 6.1 leak, may be one of the most exciting updates in the gameplay and its lore. If the leaks are proven true, she will introduce a new gameplay for the players with the Dendro element. Also, she’ll bring a variety to on-field Catalyst DPS options.  Her ability to scale with Elemental Mastery, combined with the 25% Dendro resistance, means she could quickly become a useful member of Dendro-focused teams.
