Candace is an upcoming 4-star Hydro user from Sumeru. A few weeks ago, we received a speculative model of her design, which leakers confirmed was very close to the official model. New leaks have revealed an updated design that is based on her official model and is thus more accurate than before. We’ve also received a few leaks on Candace’s character and personality since her initial model speculations. In this article, we’ll discuss all we know about Candace till now.
Candace in Genshin Impact
Her updated model, closely based on her official model, looks somewhat like this.
Candace is said to be cool, calm, gentle, and graceful. Her allegiance is to her home village, which she protects with all her heart. She’s a wise, helpful soul who will help anyone who needs it without prejudice.
She shares similarities with Lisa as she has a playful sense of humor which she uses to ease the worries of others.
She’d dedicated her life to protecting her village even though she could be doing so much more. Anyone who threatens her village meets swift, immediate consequences without any mercy.
According to fan arts and rumors, she’s said to wield a polearm as her weapon of choice. If this is true, she could be the first Hydro polearm user in the game. As a Hydro unit from Sumeru, her kit is expected to focus on Hydro-Dendro reactions like Bloom.
She’s expected to be hydro support for upcoming Dendro units considering she’s 4-star, and Genshin hardly releases 4-star DPS units even though their last 4-star Heizou was one.
Her expected release date will likely be on Version 3.1, according to recent leaks. She’s going to feature alongside another new 5-star’s banner- either Nilou or Cyno. Considering Version 3.1 has already been confirmed to release on the 28th of September, 2022, players won’t have to wait long for Candace.
