Summary
Emilie’s leaked gameplay kit inGenshin Impact4.8 seems to confirm prior rumors of her role in team comps. The new character known as Emilie has been officially revealed by developer HoYoverse as the next new character, set to be released in Version 4.8 Emilie has long been featured in leaks as the perfumer from the region of Fontaine, though her release is going to happen almost a year after the arrival of the Nation of Hydro. While HoYoverse did not provide extra details about thisnew character inGenshin Impact4.8, leaks indicate what she may do.
While speculation about Emilie seemed to indicate she would be a damage dealer of some sort,new information hints at her operating as a sub-DPS in team comps. According to details provided by Seele Leaks, which were then shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” onReddit, Emilie’s Elemental Skill is called Fetch Fragrance and will see her create a Casket of Soft Light on the field, which deals Dendro AoE DMG inGenshin Impact. This rumored item will allegedly fire Pure Dew Breath at opponents at a fixed interval, dealing Dendro DMG to them.

Although HoYoverse has not revealed the release date for Natlan in Genshin Impact, it is possible to predict exactly when it will arrive.
Emilie Is Likely A Sub-DPS In Genshin Impact
Dendro Character Could Improve Element’s Usage
From the description provided in the leak, the Casket of Soft Light seems like a reliable source of Dendro application against enemies and one that seemingly remains even after Emilie has left the field – further hinting at her possible role as a sub-DPS.The Dendro attacks fired by the Casket of Soft Light are said to increase in power level when nearby enemies are afflicted with the Burning state. This seems on par with the previous rumors about Emilie being a specialist with the Burning Elemental Reaction inGenshin Impact.
“Because her specialty seems to lie with the Burning Elemental Reaction, it seems like Emilie will be a good sub-DPS for Pyro main DPS characters.”
Furthermore, the leak describes Emilie’s Burst, which is rumored to be called Fragrance Deduction, and seemingly creates a new Casket of Soft Light at level 3, destroying the previous one. This item will not collect fragrance from Burning Reactions to enhance itself and, instead, only deal Dendro DMG via Pure Dew Breath.Emilie’s leaked Passive Talents hint at an increase in the Casket of Soft Light’s DMG, as well as a boost to resistance to Pyro Resistance via Burning DMG when the Casket is on the field.
Another leaked Passive of Emilie’s also boosts damage to enemies in the Burning state, while also decreasing damage to those in the Quicken state.From what it seems, Emilie will indeed be a Dendro sub-DPS who operates primarily off-field, with her Casket of Soft Light dealing consistent Dendro DMG to opponents. Because her specialty seems to lie with the Burning Elemental Reaction, it seems like Emilie will be a good sub-DPS for Pyro main DPS characters.
If the leaks are true, characters like Hu Tao orArlecchino inGenshin Impactcould be great main DPS units for Emilie to assist.
While a lot of the details about Emilie should be taken with a grain of salt, as the leaks may be inaccurate or subject to change, the information so far hints at what seems like a very reliable Dendro sub-DPS that may not only buff one of the most underused Elemental Reactions in the game but even change how players use Dendro inGenshin Impact.
