Zibai, titled "White Horse's Fleeting Spring," is a 5-star Geo Sword character from Liyue and one of the Eight Adepts. She functions as a main DPS who excels in DEF-scaling Normal Attack spam infused with Geo during her Elemental Skill's Lunar Phase Shift mode. Her kit revolves around the new Lunar-Crystallize reaction (triggered by Hydro + Crystallize, converted via her passive), delivering high Geo damage output while buffing team Lunar-Crystallize damage. Zibai ascends off CRIT DMG (38.4% at max) and thrives in Geo-Hydro teams with supports like Gorou or Illuga (her Phase 2 rate-up 4-star). She releases in Version 6.3 Phase 2 "Luna IV" banner alongside her signature weapon.

Normal Attack: Golden Blade's Petaled Touch

Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes. Charged Attack consumes 20 Stamina for 2 rapid strikes. Plunging Attack deals damage along the descent and AoE on impact.

In Lunar Phase Shift (from Skill), Normal/Charged Attacks convert to unoverrideable Geo DMG scaling off DEF. Every 4th NA adds extra Geo DMG (considered Lunar-Crystallize) via Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam.
