Playable Characters

Alhaitham is a playable Dendro character in Genshin Impact.

Alhaitham is a member of the Haravatat of the Sumeru Akademiya and the Akademiya's Scribe, responsible for documenting their findings and drafting ordinances. Despite his brilliance, people within the Akademiya are perplexed by Alhaitham due to his unwillingness to aspire for higher office in spite of his egocentricity, and many have been at odds with him for his uncompromising view on rationality and the truth.

Description Gameplay Notes Advanced Properties Attribute Scaling Preview Rushes forward, dealing Dendro DMG to nearby opponents when the rush ends, causing a Chisel-Light Mirror to form. Holding this skill will cause it to behave differently. Hold Enters Aiming Mode to adjust the direction of Alhaitham's rush attack. Chisel-Light Mirror When this skill is unleashed, Alhaitham will generate 1 Chisel-Light Mirror. If there are no Mirrors at this time, he will generate 1 additional Mirror. Chisel-Light Mirrors will have the following properties: When he possesses Chisel-Light Mirrors, Alhaitham's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will be converted to Dendro DMG. This cannot be overridden. When attacks of the aforementioned kinds hit opponents, the Chisel-Light Mirrors will unleash a Projection Attack that deals AoE Dendro DMG based on the number of Mirrors on the field. A total of 3 Chisel-Light Mirrors can exist at once. The Chisel-Light Mirrors will disappear one after the other over time, and will all disappear when Alhaitham leaves the field. When a Projection Attack hits at least one enemy, it generates 1 Elemental Particle. This particle generation has a cooldown of 1.5 seconds. Projection Attacks individually snapshot upon starting their animation. A Plunging Attack can be performed immediately after holding this skill, regardless of Alhaitham's altitude.

Description Gameplay Notes Advanced Properties Attribute Scaling Preview Creates a Particular Binding Field and deals multiple instances of AoE Dendro DMG. If Chisel-Light Mirrors exist when this ability is unleashed, all such Mirrors will be consumed and increase the number of DMG instances dealt. 2s after this ability is unleashed, if 0/1/2/3 Mirrors were consumed, Alhaitham will generate 3/2/1/0 new Mirrors in turn. DMG dealt by this skill will snapshot Alhaitham's stats on cast and will not be affected by changes in his stats that occur afterwards. If the player switches to a different character and back to Alhaitham within 2s after using this skill, Alhaitham will still be able to regenerate Mirrors. However, if the player fails to switch back within 2s, the Mirrors will not be gained.
