Keqing (Chinese: 刻晴 Kèqíng, "Sunny Moment" or "Delicate Carving") is a playable Electro character in Genshin Impact.

As the Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing, she is someone who seeks her own answers instead of idly letting chaos run amok in Liyue. She chooses her own path with her own power and ability, instead of letting the gods determine her fate.

	Stellar Restoration	Elemental Skill
Hurls a Lightning Stiletto that annihilates her opponents like the swift thunder. When the Stiletto hits its target, it deals Electro DMG to opponents in a small AoE, and places a Stiletto Mark on the spot hit. Hold: Hold to adjust the direction in which the Stiletto shall be thrown. Stilettos thrown by the Hold attack mode can be suspended in mid-air, allowing Keqing to jump to them when using Stellar Restoration a second time. Lightning Stiletto: If Keqing uses Stellar Restoration again or uses a Charged Attack while its duration lasts, it will clear the Stiletto Mark and produce different effects: If she uses Stellar Restoration again, she will blink to the location of the Mark and unleash one slashing attack that deals AoE Electro DMG. When blinking to a Stiletto that was thrown from a Holding attack, Keqing can leap across obstructing terrain. If Keqing uses a Charged Attack, she will ignite a series of thundering cuts at the Mark's location, dealing AoE Electro DMG. This skill generates 2.5 Elemental Particles when it hits at least one enemy with the 2nd activation (either from the 2nd use or from a Charged Attack) The CD start at the first activation: if it is reused 3 seconds after the first use, the CD will have ticked down to 4.5 seconds. With Keqing's Passive Talent 1 Thundering Penance, after recasting this skill while a Lightning Stiletto is present, Keqing's weapon gains an Electro Elemental Infusion for 5s. When this happens, all of Keqing's Normal, Charged and Plunge Attacks deal Electro damage instead of Physical damage. With Keqing's 1st constellation, recasting this skill while a Lightning Stiletto is present causes Keqing to deal 50% of her ATK as AoE Electro DMG at the start point and terminus of her Blink. If this skill is recast at point-blank range, both AoE explosions can hit for a total of 100% of ATK damage. The teleportation aspect of this skill is very useful for exploration (e.g. faster climbing, farther gliding by starting from a higher point, reaching places otherwise unreachable), as well as for closing gaps in combat. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Lightning Stiletto DMG 50.4 54.18 57.96 63 66.78 70.56 75.6 80.64 85.68 90.72 95.76 100.8 107.1 Slashing DMG 168 180.6 193.2 210 222.6 235.2 252 268.8 285.6 302.4 319.2 336 357 Thunderclap Slash DMG 84×2 90.3×2 96.6×2 105×2 111.3×2 117.6×2 126×2 134.4×2 142.8×2 151.2×2 159.6×2 168×2 178.5×2 CD 7.5s Media:Talent Stellar Restoration Press.ogv Press Media:Talent Stellar Restoration Hold.ogv Hold Media:Talent Stellar Restoration Press Charged.ogv Using Charged Attack to ignite a series of thundering cuts
	Starward Sword	Elemental Burst
Keqing unleashes the power of lightning, dealing Electro DMG in an AoE. She then blends into the shadow of her blade, striking a series of thunderclap-blows to nearby opponents simultaneously that deal multiple instances of Electro DMG. The final attack deals massive AoE Electro DMG. With Keqing's Passive Talent 2 Aristocratic Dignity, when casting this skill, Keqing's CRIT Rate is increased by 15%, and her Energy Recharge is increased by 15%. This effect lasts for 8s. This skill has a relatively long animation (about 2s), which can be used to gain invincibility frames against any incoming damage. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Skill DMG 88 94.6 101.2 110 116.6 123.2 132 140.8 149.6 158.4 167.2 176 187 Consecutive Slash DMG 24*8 25.8*8 27.6*8 30*8 31.8*8 33.6*8 36*8 38.4*8 40.8*8 43.2*8 45.6*8 48*8 51*8 Last Attack DMG 188.8 202.96 217.12 236 250.16 264.32 283.2 302.08 320.96 339.84 358.72 377.6 401.2 CD 12s Energy Cost 40 Media:Talent Starward Sword.ogv
