The electrifying winds of Teyvat are about to crackle with unprecedented intensity as HoYoverse unleashes Clorinde, Fontaine's undefeated Champion Duelist, in Genshin Impact 4.7. This Electro-wielding warrior doesn't just enter the frayβ€”she rewrites the rules of combat with a sword in one hand and a pistol in the other, promising to shock both enemies and allies alike. clorinde-fontaine-s-thunderous-duelist-storms-genshin-impact-image-0

⚑ The Legend Behind the Lightning

Hailed as Fontaine's ultimate judicial enforcer, Clorinde's reputation precedes her like thunder before a storm. Once Focalors' personal guard, this 5-Star phenomenon has single-handedly dismantled 1,247+ fraudulent court cases (unofficial estimates by the Steambird Press). Her mere presence in legal proceedings causes defendants to spontaneously develop moral compassesβ€”or at least acute survival instincts.

Breaking tradition like a false witness's alibi, Clorinde merges:

  • A rapier sharp enough to split hairs (and souls)

  • A pistol crackling with the raw energy of Electro itself

Insiders whisper her Elemental Skill involves parrying attacks with blade spins before countering with lightning-infused gunshotsβ€”a combo that could make even Raiden Shogun check her warranty.
