Genshin Impact Ifa Kit Leaks Abilities Materials Weapons Constellations Release Date Details

Guides

Whispers from Teyvat hint at the arrival of Ifa, a mysterious new character whose leaked abilities and materials are stirring excitement across the Genshin Impact community. With data miners uncovering details ahead of schedule, players are eager to see how her kit could reshape future team compositions once her release date is confirmed.


Not much official information about Ifa is out yet, but there are a ton of leaks revealing his kit. Here, in this guide, we have collected all the leaks to compile Ifa’s kit in Genshin Impact.

Ifa Rarity, Element, and Stats in Genshin Impact

Ifa is a 5-star Hydro character rumored to wield a Catalyst weapon, blending strong AoE damage with fluid support abilities. Early leaks suggest her skills enhance team Hydro reactions, making her a flexible addition to reaction-based teams. Her base stats appear balanced, with solid HP and Energy Recharge scaling, favoring sustained combat rather than quick bursts. If verified, these attributes could place her among the more versatile Hydro units released by HoYoverse.

Ifa is a 4-star Anemo Catalyst user who is expected to be an Anemo support. Here is everything we currently know about Ifa’s base stats in Genshin Impact:

  • Rarity: 4-star
  • Element (Vision): Anemo
  • Weapon Type: Catalyst
  • Max Base HP: 10081
  • Max Base Attack: 178
  • Max Base Defense: 605
  • Base Crit Rate: 5%
  • Base Crit Damage: 50%
  • Bonus EM: 96

Genshin Impact Ifa Release Date

Ifa is expected to join Genshin Impact in Version 4.7, which is anticipated to launch in early June 2026, following HoYoverse’s regular six-week patch schedule. Based on current leaks, her debut banner will appear alongside reruns of other Fontaine characters, giving players a chance to obtain her immediately upon release. While details remain subject to change until official confirmation, her inclusion is already drawing attention for expanding the game’s roster with another unique hydro-based support.

Ifa has been confirmed to arrive in the Genshin Impact 5.6 update with his Drip Marketing release. He will either be featured alongside Escoffier in the first half’s banner or arrive independently in the second half’s banner.

As Genshin Impact 5.6 is expected to release on May 7, we can safely assume Ifa to be released around the same time if he is featured in the first banner. Otherwise, Ifa will be released on May 27, 2025, in the second banner.

Genshin Impact Ifa: Talent and Passives Leaked

Recent leaks reveal that Ifa’s talents focus on swift elemental strikes and coordinated team support. Her Skill channels precise hits that amplify Elemental Reactions, while her Burst releases a continuous field effect boosting allies’ damage output. Passive abilities are said to enhance her energy generation and grant temporary buffs when switching characters, suggesting strong synergy in reaction-based lineups.

Ifa’s kit leaks have appeared on Reddit, and they reveal him to be a swirl sub-DPS with strong healing abilities. His kit is great for crowd-controlling enemies and supporting allies with buffs and heals. Even as a 4-star character, Ifa is appearing to be very useful in Genshin Impact. Here is Ifa’s complete kit that is based on the latest leaks:

  • Normal Attack (Rite of Dispelling Winds):
    • Basic Normal Attack: Ifa performs up to 3 attacks, dealing Anemo damage
    • Charged Attack: Ifa fires a shot by consuming a certain amount of Stamina, dealing AoE Anemo damage
    • Plunging Attack: Plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents along the path. Deals AoE Anemo Damage upon impact with the ground.
  • Elemental Skill (Airborne Disease Prevention): Ifa summons Cacucu, gains 80 Nightsoul points, and enters the Nightsoul Blessing state. In this state, Ifa can hover with the help of Cacucu. When using Normal Attacks in this state, he uses a different kind of Supporting Fire based on whether you Tap or Hold, firing Tonicshots that are capable of healing all party members. Additionally, ‘Holding’ the Elemental Skill Airborne Disease Prevention while Ifa is in Nightsoul’s Blessing will cause him to use a Nightsoul-aligned Plunging Attack. Letting go of the skill button will interrupt this Plunging Attack to maintain his hover. If Ifa lands due to this Plunging Attack, his Nightsoul’s Blessing state will end.
  • Elemental Burst (Compound Sedation Field): Fires a Therapeutic Sedative at a (temporarily aggressive) opponent. The sedative will explode on impact, creating a restraining wind current that pulls nearby objects and opponents while dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Anemo Damage. When the Therapeutic Sedative hits an opponent affected by Hydro/ Pyro/ Cryo/ Electro, it will apply a Sedation Mark to them, which will explode after a short delay and disappear, dealing AoE Damage aligned with the corresponding element.

  • Passive 1 (Night Realm’s Gift: Focused Emergency Rescue): After his Nightsoul points are exhausted, Ifa will switch to consuming Phlogiston to maintain his Nightsoul’s Blessing. He can use Nightsoul Transmission Ifa while he is in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan. When the active character is a certain height in the air, the following will occur when switching to Ifa: Ifa will enter the Nightsoul’s Blessing state and gain 32 Nightsoul points. The Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10 seconds by your own team.
  • Passive 2 (Field Medic’s Vision): While in the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, every 1 Nightsoul point out of the total in his entire team grants him 1 Rescue Essentials point. Rescue Essentials increases the Swirl and Electro-Charged Damage dealt by all nearby party members.
  • Passive 3 (Mutual Aid Agreement): Ifa’s Elemental Mastery increases by 80 for 10 seconds when a nearby Party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst.
  • Passive 4 (Tactical Warm Compress Bandaging): While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, when the current active party member or indwelt saurian has less than 40% HP, Ifa will consume 10 Phlogiston and restore 40% of their HP. This effect can trigger once every 10 seconds, and does not take effect in Domains, Trounce Domains, or the Spiral Abyss.

Genshin Impact Ifa Constellation Leaked

Recent leaks have revealed details about Ifa’s Constellation, hinting at abilities that strengthen her elemental skill and burst with each level. Her higher-tier constellations appear to boost team synergy by enhancing support capabilities and energy regeneration. While specifics might still change before release, these early leaks suggest that her Constellation upgrades could make her a valuable addition for players focusing on coordinated elemental reactions and sustained team performance.

Ifa’s Constellations have also leaked, and they appear decently strong. According to the leaks, his C2, C4, and C6 have really good values, making them worth pulling alongside him. Here are all of Ifa’s Eidolons in his leaked kit:

  • C1 (Vitiferous Elixir’s Concoction): When Supporting Fire hits an opponent, it will restore 6 Energy for Ifa. One such Energy restoration can be triggered once every 8 seconds
  • C2 (Guiding Spirit of Ballistic Prayer): While in the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, every Nightsoul point the party has above a total of 60 will grant Ifa 4 additional Rescue Essentials points. Additionally, Ifa’s Rescue Essentials limit is increased by 50
  • C3 (Rebuttal in Negotiations With the Night): Elemental Skill level 3
  • C4 (Decayed Vessel’s Permutation): The restraining wind current created by the Elemental Burst Compound Sedation Field lasts for 3 extra seconds. Additionally, Ifa gains 100 Elemental Mastery for 15s after using his Elemental Burst Compound Sedation Field
  • C5 (Vow of Universal Coexistence): Elemental Burst level 3
  • C6 (Oath on a Feathered Knot): When Ifa uses the Hold version of his Supporting Fire, there is a 50% chance that he will fire an additional Tonicshot that deals 120% of Ifa’s Attack as Anemo Damage. This damage is considered Normal Attack damage. Plus, when he is not in combat, Ifa will consume 20% less Nightsoul points and Phlogiston in his Nightsoul’s Blessing state.

So, that’s everything we know about Ifa in Genshin Impact right now. Although Ifa is expected to release soon in the Genshin Impact 5.6 update, the above kit details are still leaks and can change before release. We will update any changes to Ifa’s kit as soon as it is leaked or officially revealed by HoYoverse. So, bookmark this post if you want to stay up-to-date with Ifa’s kit and release details.

How strong is Ifa compared to other Anemo healers

Ifa is generally considered a niche, mid-tier Anemo healer whose raw healing is weaker and more restrictive than Jean’s or Xianyun’s, but he offers stronger offensive support in specific Swirl/Electro-Charged teams than they do. In practice he is good if you build around his EM and reaction-focused kit, but he is rarely the best universal Anemo healer option.​

Healing strength

  • Theorycraft resources and community testing note that Ifa’s healing multipliers are low compared to standard healers, and even other Anemo healers, especially before high constellations.​

  • Guides frequently recommend extra help (Prototype Amber or a second healer) if he is paired with HP-draining units like Furina, which stronger healers can usually handle alone.​

Utility and damage

  • Ifa brings consistent on-field Swirl, crowd control, and Electro-Charged/Swirl damage buffs, letting him function as a driver that also heals, something Jean and Xianyun are less specialized for.​​

  • This means his overall team value can be high in taser-style teams that lack a 5-star Anemo driver, even if his pure healing is only “decent.”​​

Versatility versus Jean/Xianyun

Aspect Ifa Jean Xianyun
Rarity 4-star Anemo Catalyst ​ 5-star Anemo Sword ​ 5-star Anemo Polearm ​
Healing power Below top healers, EM-scaling, field-time reliant ​ Strong burst + passive healing, flexible ​ Strong burst-based AoE healing in plunge teams ​
Utility focus Swirl/Electro-Charged buffs, grouping, driver ​​ Cleanse, knock-ups, general Anemo support ​ Plunge buffs and Anemo support ​
Versatility Niche; best in taser/Natlan-synergy teams ​ Very universal healer/anemo flex ​ More specialized plunge comps ​

Overall verdict

  • As an Anemo healer, Ifa is weaker and less universal than Jean and strong 5-star supports, and even some 4-star healers outclass him in raw sustain.​

  • If a team specifically wants an EM-scaling Anemo driver who buffs Electro-Charged/Swirl and provides “good enough” healing, Ifa is quite valuable; otherwise, more generalist Anemo healers usually win out.​

Ifa vs Jean strengths and weaknesses

Ifa excels as a reaction-focused Anemo driver and niche healer, while Jean remains a far more flexible, stronger general healer and utility support for most teams. If you play a lot of Electro-Charged/Swirl teams, Ifa can outperform Jean there; otherwise Jean is usually the safer and stronger choice.​

Core roles

  • Ifa: 4-star Anemo Catalyst whose kit is built around Swirl and Electro-Charged buffs, light team healing, and on-field driving.​

  • Jean: 5-star Anemo Sword who provides strong teamwide healing, cleansing, and flexible Anemo utility with simple builds.​

Strengths of Ifa

  • Very good at enabling Electro-Charged and Swirl damage as an on-field driver, especially with units like Mona, Fischl, Yelan, and Ororon.​

  • Has grouping on Burst and can contribute continuous reaction damage while providing “good enough” sustain in reaction teams.​​

Weaknesses of Ifa

  • Healing multipliers are low; many guides note he struggles to solo-heal HP-draining teams (for example with Furina) without extra help or specific builds.​

  • Buffs are narrow (mainly Swirl/Electro-Charged and Natlan synergies), so outside those comps his value drops sharply compared to other Anemo supports.​

Strengths of Jean

  • Strong, consistent team healing from Burst plus passive healing, enough to comfortably support high-HP-drain teams.​

  • Extremely flexible: provides crowd control with Skill knock-ups, can deal good personal damage with VV sets, and fits nearly any element combination.​

Weaknesses of Jean

  • Offers no specialized reaction buff for Electro-Charged/Swirl like Ifa does, so in those specific teams she may be out-damaged in overall team output.​

  • Needs a 5-star pull and weapon/crit investment to reach notable personal damage, whereas Ifa can feel “online” with cheaper EM-centric builds.​

When to use each

  • Prefer Ifa: in taser/Electro-Charged or Swirl-centric teams that want an on-field Anemo driver and only moderate healing.​

  • Prefer Jean: when you need strong, universal healing, cleansing, and a plug-and-play Anemo support that works in almost any team or Abyss floor.​
