Genshin Impact Layla Abilities, Constellations, Ascension Materials

Genshin Impact 3.2 is coming out this November with the Dendro Archon banner. The new 4-star character Layla is going to debut alongside her. Since everyone is going to try to get Nahida, it is likely that people would also get Layla.

In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase everything you need to know about Genshin Impact Layla, including abilities, constellations and ascension materials.

Layla Attack: Sword of the Radiant Path

• Normal Attack: Performs up to 3 rapid strikes.
  
• Charged Attack: Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes.
• Plunging Attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Layla Elemental Skill: Nights of Formal Focus

Puts forth a shield known as the Curtain of Slumber, dealing AoE Cryo DMG. The Curtain of Slumber's DMG Absorption is based on Layla's Max HP and absorbs Cryo DMG with 250% effectiveness.

Night Stars and Shooting Stars

While the Curtain of Slumber is active, it will create 1 Night Star that will be attached to it every 1.5s. When a character protected by this shield uses an Elemental Skill, 2 Night Stars will be created. Night Stars can be created once every 0.3s in this way. A maximum of 4 Night Stars can be accumulated at any one time.

Once the Curtain of Slumber has accumulated 4 Night Stars and there are opponents nearby, these Night Stars will transform into homing Shooting Stars that will be fired off in sequence, dealing Cryo DMG to any opponents hit.

If the Curtain of Slumber's duration ends or it is destroyed, the Night Stars will disappear. If they are already being fired off as Shooting Stars, these Shooting Stars will last until this wave of shots ends.

New Night Stars cannot be created until the previous wave of Shooting Stars has been fired completely.

Layla Elemental Burst: Dream of the Star-Stream Shaker

Unleashes a Celestial Dreamsphere that constantly fires Starlight Slugs at opponents within its AoE, dealing Cryo DMG.

When a Starlight Slug hits, it will generate 1 Night Star for nearby Curtains of Slumber. Each Curtain of Slumber can gain 1 Night Star this way every 0.5s.

Layla Passive Talent

Like Nascent Light

While the Curtain of Slumber is active, the Deep Sleep effect will activate each time the Curtain gains a Night Star:

• The Shield Strength of a character under the effect of the Curtain of Slumber increases by 6%.
• This effect can have a maximum of 4 stacks and persists until the Curtain of Slumber disappears.

Sweet Slumber Undisturbed

The DMG dealt by the Shooting Stars fired by Nights of Formal Focus is increased by 1.5% of Layla's Max HP.

Talent for Daily Life

When Layla crafts Character Talent Materials, she has a 10% chance to receive double the product.

Layla Constellations: Luscinia

1. Fortress of Fantasy

The Shield Absorption of the Curtain of Slumber generated by Nights of Formal Focus is increased by 20%.

Additionally, when unleashing Nights of Formal Focus, she will generate a shield for any nearby party members who are not being protected by a Curtain of Slumber. This shield will have 35% of the absorption of a Curtain of Slumber, will last for 12s, and will absorb Cryo DMG with 250% effectiveness.

2. Light's Remit

When Shooting Stars from Nights of Formal Focus strike opponents, they will each restore 1 Energy to Layla. Each Shooting Star can restore Energy to her in this manner once.

3. Secrets of the Night

Increases the Level of Nights of Formal Focus by 3. The maximum upgrade level is 15.

4. Starry Illumination

When Nights of Formal Focus starts to fire off Shooting Stars, it will grant all nearby party members the Open Mind effect, causing their Normal and Charged Attack DMG to increase based on 5% of Layla's Max HP.

Open Mind can last up to 3s and will be removed 0.1s after dealing Normal or Charged Attack DMG.

5. Stream of Consciousness

Increases the Level of Dream of the Star-Stream Shaker by 3. The maximum upgrade level is 15.

6. The Fruit of Reason's Culmination

Shooting Stars from Nights of Formal Focus deal 40% increased DMG, and Starlight Slugs from Dream of the Star-Stream Shaker deal 40% increased DMG.

Additionally, the interval between the creation of Night Stars via Nights of Formal Focus is decreased by 20%.
