Genshin Impact 2.2 Leaks: Thoma’s Elemental Skill, Elemental Burst, Normal and Charged Attacks

While Genshin Impact players were preparing to dive into the version 2.1 update. The Genshin Impact leakers and data miners had something else in mind. On September 1, 2021, we not only got the official announcement from miHoYo that Thoma is coming in Genshin Impact 2.2 update. But we also got a plentitude of information on Thoma’s elemental abilities, his attack animation, and many other details in the form of leaks.

In this article, we have gathered the data-mined information on Thoma’s normal attacks and elemental abilities.

Normal attack

Performs up to 4 consecutive polearm strikes.

Charged attack

Consumes a certain amount of stamina and lunges forward, dealing damage to enemies in his path.

Elemental Skill: Chuuken Guard

Thoma plunges his polearm into the ground as support, and kicks forward with the power of flames, causing AoE Pyro damage. He also conjures a shield of Chuuken Guard to protect himself and infuses his attacks with pyro.

The shield’s damage absorption scales with Thoma’s max HP.

The shield has the following properties:

• 250% bonus absorption towards pyro damage;
• If Chuuken Guard is refreshed while active, the remaining HP of the existing shield stacks with the new one, and its duration will be extended.

The shield’s maximum damage absorption cannot exceed a certain ratio beyond Thoma’s own max HP.

• Skill damage: 146%
• Shield damage absorption: 7.2% Max HP + 693
• Shield duration: 8s
• Shield damage absorption maximum: 23.5% max HP
• Cooldown: 15s

As an outlander, only by igniting the most passionate fire of sincerity will he be able to master the purest and highest form of Inazuman swordsmanship. But Thoma’s achievements stop at neither his astonishing speed of learning nor his mastery of the polearm. As someone who is dedicated to “protect”, he infuses the art of defending against enemies into his skills.

Elemental Burst: Blazing Armor of flames

Thoma spins his polearm, cutting down enemies around him with scorching flames, causing AoE pyro damage, and creates a flaming armor.

Flaming Armor

While a character on the field is protected by the armor, normal attacks will cause a fiery eruption, causing AoE Pyro damage, and conjures the protection of Chuuken Guard.
Fiery eruptions may only occur once every second.

Other than damage absorption, shields generated in this state shares the same properties as those generated by Chuuken Guard:

• 250% bonus absorption towards pyro damage;
• If Chuuken Guard is refreshed while active, the remaining HP of the existing shield stacks with the new one, and its duration will be extended.

The shield’s maximum damage absorption cannot exceed a certain ratio beyond Thoma’s own max HP.

If Thoma falls in battle, the effects of Flaming Armor will no longer be active.

• Skill damage: 88%
• Fiery eruption damage: 58%
• Shield absorption: 1.1% max HP + 110
• Shield duration: 8.0s
• Burst duration: 15.0s
• CD: 20.0s
• Energy cost: 80

“I will never forget the promise made that day, so with this flame, I will protect the people close to me. These flames will never die out”
