The information about Genshin Impact version 6.0 has been stirring up the gaming community. Everyone is eagerly awaiting new adventures in the land of Nod-Krai in Snezhnaya, along with the appearance of three new characters: Aino, Lauma and Flins. However, the hot news from the beta test has made Travelers worried, especially about the most anticipated character: Flins.
Is one of the most promising Thunder DPS at risk of becoming a huge disappointment? Should we continue saving up for Primogems, or risk investing in this character? Let's dive into the leaks and analyze the changes that could happen in Genshin Impact version 6.0 !
Flins was nerfed heavily in Genshin Impact 6.0
According to the leaked beta, Flins has been hit with a significant nerf, especially to his Rage ability. Damage reductions include Lunar-Electric Final Phase, Symphony of Thunder, and Symphony of Thunder's Bonus Damage. This is not good news, as Symphony of Thunder is considered the strongest point of Flins' kit.

HoYoverse's decision to nerf a highly anticipated character like Flins right before launch may make many players reconsider. This is reminiscent of the case of Cyno, a highly anticipated Thunder DPS who did not live up to expectations upon launch, leaving players looking for other Thunder DPS. However, we need to remember that these changes are still in the testing phase. It is still possible that these adjustments will be reviewed and changed again in the next beta of Genshin Impact 6.0 .

Should I save Primogems for later versions?
With the risk of Flins not being strong enough to compete with the current Lightning DPS, many players are wondering whether to save Primogems for later versions like Genshin Impact 6.1. According to some leaks, Lauma, an Elementalist support character, could be a worthy choice. She can synergize well with powerful characters like Alhaitham and Nahida, opening up new potential team compositions.

Additionally, HoYoverse has also teased characters like Durin, Nefer, Columbina, and Varka for the future. Notably, there are rumors that a new Fire character will be released in Genshin Impact 6.1, and Durin is said to be that Fire character. With a new area and a promising lineup of new characters, saving up on Primogems could be a wise strategy.
If you’re an anime fan and like characters with personality, Flins is still a compelling choice. But Hobiverse thinks it’s wise to wait for the final update before deciding. Because right after Flins, 6.1 has leaked, featuring the mysterious Fire character Durin, along with a bunch of other Snezhnaya faces.
Meanwhile, artifact sets and resonance buffs will give you a fresh experience whether you have Flins or not. So, if you like experimental gameplay, enjoy it right away. But if you want to make sure your investment in raw stones is effective, it's worth being patient.

The Flins nerf in the Genshin Impact 6.0 beta is worrying news, but it's also a reminder that we need to be more careful with our Primogems. Flins may be nerfed, but the new artifact sets and resonance buffs have given creative Lunar Reaction comps hope. Hobiverse believes that, if you know how to use them, whether you run Flins or wait for 6.1, your journey in Nod-Krai will be a memorable experience.
