Since her announcement in January, fans of HoyoVerse's open-world RPG Genshin Impact have eagerly awaited Dehya, the game's latest playable character. Unfortunately, though, she hasn't quite lived as much as players' expectations.
Yesterday, Dehya made her debut as a playable character using the release of Genshin's Version 3.5, and players were quick to see her seemingly underpowered skillset. Despite her 5-star status, Pyro Claymore wielder Dehya has a few of the lowest attack stats hanging around (even less than many of her 4-star counterparts), as well as a pretty specific build and team composition to achieve success.
At the finish of the game's current version, Dehya will even become obtainable all the time (unlike most of the game's 5-star characters, who're often only accessible for three weeks at any given time). This also implies that players wishing for limited characters regularly will probably get stuck with Dehya instead, leading the city to push for improvements to her skillset.
Of course, Genshin Impact's community has had this to heart — Dehya's dedicated Subreddit has become filled with many players emailing HoyoVerse to inquire about a better skillset yet others offering build advice to hopefully make Dehya worthwhile. Some players who main other characters with imbalanced kits have even offered their condolences and shown solidarity.
Before Dehya's unfortunate summary of the world of Teyvat, we gave Genshin Impact a 9 in our 2020 review, praising its jam-packed open world and element-based combat.
Since the game's launch, Genshin Impact and it is community have experienced a lot of changes, such as the introduction of the long-awaited element, plans to have an anime adaptation, and also the Player's Voice Award in the Game Awards 2022. Keep up with Genshin Impact's latest events with IGN's 3.5 event guide, and find out more about Deyha together with her new story quest.
