Genshin Impact 6.7 character buffs and Witch’s Revelation (Luna VIII)

Seven returning characters gain new talents and Constellation upgrades built around the Stellar-Conduct reaction in Luna VIII.

Seven returning characters gain new talents and Constellation upgrades built around the Stellar-Conduct reaction in Luna VIII.

Seven existing characters are getting reworked talents in the Luna VIII update, all tied to the new Stellar-Conduct reaction. The system handing out these upgrades is called Witch’s Revelation, and it touches Wriothesley, Yae Miko, Cyno, Qiqi, Diona, Beidou, and Yumemizuki Mizuki. Two of them also see their signature weapons buffed. The update lands on July 1, 2026.

Quick answer: Finish the world quest Revelations by Chance to obtain the Witch’s Revelation Case, then complete the Witch’s Revelation quest for each character you own who is at least Level 70. Once done, that character keeps an extra Additional Talent plus upgraded Constellations at C1, C2, C4, and C6.

How to unlock the Witch’s Revelation buffs

The buffs are not automatic. Each one is gated behind a short quest, and you only get the option for characters you actually own and have leveled high enough.

Complete the world quest Revelations by Chance. This rewards the Witch’s Revelation Case, which is the item that opens up the rest of the process.
Bring the character you want to upgrade to at least Level 70. The Witch’s Revelation quest for that character only becomes available once they meet this requirement.
Start and finish that character’s Witch’s Revelation quest. When it ends, the character permanently gains a new Additional Talent and upgraded effects on their Constellations at Levels 1, 2, 4, and 6. You confirm it worked by checking the character screen, where the new talent and the changed Constellation text will appear.

How the Stellar-Conduct reaction works

Every one of these buffs is built around Stellar-Conduct, a new reaction that fires when Cryo meets Electro under the right conditions. When it triggers, a Starlight Prism drops onto the field and forms a circular Polestar Field around it.

Inside that field, several things happen at once. Cryo and Electro damage both get a bonus for characters standing in the zone, the base reaction coefficient of Stellar-Conduct itself goes up, and the Physical RES of enemies caught inside is reduced. The field stores elemental energy on the battlefield and converts it into these party-wide buffs.

One important catch carries over from the Lunar reactions: not every character can set off Stellar-Conduct, and most of the new talents below only activate while a Polestar Field is present. In practice that means the field, and usually a character who can create it, is what switches these upgrades on.


Wriothesley buffs

Wriothesley becomes a strong on-field Stellar-Conduct option, with changes to his talents, Constellations, and his signature weapon Cashflow Supervision.

TypeEffect
GeneralEnters the Radiance: Stellar-Conduct state inside a Polestar Field. Part of his enhanced Charged Attacks and enhanced Normal Attacks (during his Skill state) counts as Stellar-Conduct DMG, and he gains a Stellar-Conduct DMG bonus.

ConstellationRaises Stellar-Conduct DMG, adds bonus Cryo DMG that counts as a Stellar-Conduct reaction, reduces damage he takes, grants party-wide ATK SPD, boosts CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG with extra icicle DMG, and increases his enhanced Normal and Charged Attack damage.
Signature weaponCashflow Supervision: when current HP rises or falls, Stellar-Conduct DMG increases by 14%.

Yae Miko buffs

Yae Miko’s rework directly fixes her long-standing weakness: her Sesshou Sakura no longer vanish when she casts her Burst. Her signature catalyst Kagura’s Verity is upgraded too.

TypeEffect
GeneralEnters Radiance: Stellar-Conduct inside a Polestar Field, where part of her damage counts as Stellar-Conduct reaction DMG, and she gains a damage bonus plus extra lightning strike damage.
GeneralTotal Sesshou Sakura duration increases by 10 seconds, and existing totems are no longer destroyed when she casts her Elemental Burst. With 3 Sesshou Sakura active, casting her Skill triggers an extra lightning strike.
ConstellationRaises Elemental Mastery for her and the party, restores extra Elemental Energy, adds an Elemental Burst DMG bonus, grants teammates an Electro and Stellar-Conduct DMG bonus, and greatly increases her Stellar-Conduct reaction CRIT DMG.
Signature weaponKagura’s Verity: the Kagura Dance effect also raises Stellar-Conduct DMG by 12%.

Cyno buffs

ConstellationWhile in Pactsworn Pathclearer, raises Elemental Mastery for Cyno or the party, increases his Stellar-Conduct DMG, and restores his Elemental Energy.

Qiqi buffs

TypeEffect
GeneralEnters Radiance: Stellar-Conduct inside a Polestar Field, boosting Superconduct and Stellar-Conduct DMG for the whole party. Her Elemental Burst can deal extra Stellar-Conduct DMG.

ConstellationRestores extra HP, restores Elemental Energy, raises ATK, and increases the on-field character’s Stellar-Conduct DMG while in the Stellar-Conduct state.

Diona buffs

ConstellationRaises her Max HP, and while in Radiance: Stellar-Conduct, characters inside her Burst field deal increased Superconduct and Stellar-Conduct DMG.

Beidou buffs

TypeEffect
GeneralEnters Radiance: Stellar-Conduct inside a Polestar Field. Holding her Elemental Skill stores power, and the more she stores, the more her Skill cooldown is reduced and Elemental Energy is restored.
ConstellationWhile in Radiance: Stellar-Conduct during her Elemental Burst, she lowers nearby enemies’ Cryo RES and raises the on-field character’s Elemental Mastery.

Yumemizuki Mizuki buffs

Mizuki’s upgrade leans on her Anemo and Swirl identity rather than a Cryo-Electro core, so her changes center on the Dreamdrifter state.

TypeEffect
GeneralWhile in Dreamdrifter, triggering a Swirl reaction increases her next instance of AoE Anemo DMG and raises the party’s Elemental Mastery.
ConstellationWhile in Dreamdrifter, she deals extra Anemo DMG, reduces enemies’ Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, Electro, and Dendro RES, restores additional HP, and raises CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG.

Because almost every general buff above keys off the Polestar Field, these characters lean heavily on having a Stellar-Conduct enabler in the team to reach their full output. If you already own Yae Miko, Wriothesley, or any of the others on this list, the Witch’s Revelation quests are worth running as soon as you have the Witch’s Revelation Case in hand and your character at Level 70.
