Genshin Impact is set to introduce a new 5-Star character, Sandrone, during the upcoming version 6.7 update. Leaked beta information suggests Sandrone will be a Cryo element user wielding a claymore. She is slated to appear on a limited-time 'To the Looking-Glass the Mademoiselle Said' Banner.
Sandrone's kit revolves around her companion, Fagio, an automaton that can enter 'Decoding Mode'. In this mode, Fagio unleashes sweeping fire attacks and fires condensed beams that deal AOE Cryo damage. As Fagio's 'Decoding Power' increases, it can enter 'Power Overdrive Mode,' where its attacks deal Cryo damage at longer intervals. Fagio's Decoding Power decreases over time, especially when Sandrone is off-field. Sandrone's Elemental Skill, 'Formule Phenomenale: Differential Analysis,' allows her to board a hovermech. While in this vehicle, she can repair Fagio, reducing its Decoding Power. The skill also allows her to fire two Prism Shots that deal Cryo damage.
Her Elemental Burst, 'Formule Phenomenale: Q.E.D.,' summons Prismatic Resonance Cannons to unleash a 'Convective Inhibition Ray' that deals AOE Cryo damage. Sandrone's passive abilities enhance her capabilities. 'Light of Rationalisme' boosts Stellar-Conduct damage based on her attack when Superconduct reactions occur, changing them to Stellar-Conduct. 'Archaic Calculation Engine' enhances Fagio's Prism Shots and grants stacks of 'Refined Tactics' for her Elemental Burst, increasing its damage. 'A Lady's Code of Conduct' boosts Sandrone's Elemental Mastery based on her attack while in a Radiance: Stellar-Conduct state. Finally, 'A Caucus Prelude and a Long Tale' provides bonus snack rewards from daily commissions when Sandrone is in the party.
Ascension and Talent Materials
To fully level Sandrone, players will need to gather specific Ascension and Talent materials. Leaked information indicates a need for materials like 'Subdetection Unit' and 'Drive Shaft' variations. Ascension requires items such as 'Shivada Jade Slivers,' 'Fragments,' 'Chunks,' and 'Gemstones,' alongside 'Plume of the Fallen Watcher' and the aforementioned 'Subdetection Unit' and 'Drive Shaft' components. Ascending Sandrone at various levels also rewards players with Acquaint Fate.
Talent materials include 'Teachings of Vagrancy,' 'Guides to Vagrancy,' and 'Philosophies of Vagrancy,' as well as 'Broken Drive Shaft,' 'Reinforced Drive Shaft,' and 'Precision Drive Shaft.' Additionally, upgrading talents to their highest level requires 'Madman's Restraint' and 'Crown of Insight' items. Fully upgrading all three of Sandrone's talents will require a substantial amount of Mora and numerous materials.
Constellations
Sandrone's Constellations offer significant enhancements to her kit. C1, 'Morrow After the Golden Dusk,' lowers Fagio's Decoding Power increase rate in Decoding Mode and increases Stellar-Conduct damage for all party members. C2, 'An Heiress Gazed Into the Looking-Glass,' boosts Charged Attack condensed beam damage and further increases damage from subsequent beams during Decoding Mode. C3 and C5 increase the levels of her Normal Attack and Elemental Burst, respectively. C4, 'In Knowledge Lies the World's True Ground,' adds a coordinated attack dealing Cryo damage when Sandrone deals Stellar-Conduct damage. C6, 'Narcissus Wakes, Her Eyes Upon the Dawn,' transforms Fagio's beam into a more powerful Condensed Cluster Beam, with enhanced damage and an overall increase to Stellar-Conduct damage dealt by Sandrone.
It is important to note that all details regarding Sandrone's kit, materials, and Constellations are based on leaked beta information and may be subject to change prior to her official release in Genshin Impact version 6.7.
