A new enemy fromGenshin Impact5.1 has leaked and it may prove to be more annoying than the Wolves of the Rift faction, often referred to as Riftwolves or Rifthounds. Version 5.1 is the next major update for HoYoverse’s action RPG and it should give continuity to the Natlan-related contents that were first introduced with Version 5.0. In the current, players saw the release of three new playable characters: Mualani, Kachina, and Kinich. There was also the introduction of severalnew Natlan enemies inGenshin Impact5.0that help populate the Nation of Pyro’s map.
This includes the Sauroform Tribal Warriors and the Saurians themselves, both groups that drop Ascension materials for characters from Natlan. In addition, players also gained access to the first Archon Quests set in the region, allowing them to meet several Natlan characters and aid them in the efforts to save the Nation from impending doom. This should continue in Version 5.1 as the game continues to expand and not only are players getting access toXilonen inGenshin Impactbut they will also seemingly face at least one new type of enemy in the Version 5.1 patch.

New Leaked Enemy From Genshin Impact 5.1 May Have A Strong Shield
Rumors Say The Barrier Needs To Be Hit By Elemental Attacks
A new enemy type called Chasmic Mimiflora has leaked for Version 5.1and it may be a tough one to face without the proper team comps. The information was provided by the leaker known as HomDGCat, which was shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” onReddit. According to the leak, Chasmic Mimiflora is an Abyssal enemy that is an enhanced version of the original opponent that is capable of teleporting. Furthermore, the creature is said to have a void barrier shield capable of blocking all damage until it is destroyed by Elemental attacks.
The rumors say that attacks from characters withNightsoul alignment inGenshin Impactdeal more damage to the shield.

Leaked Genshin Impact 5.1 Enemy May Be Tough To Beat At Higher Levels
It Is Uncertain If They Will Deal Corrosion Damage Like Riftwolves
In addition to having an all-protecting shield,the Chasmic Mimiflora is rumored to be able to cause damage to the player’s active character while ignoring any active shieldsthey may have. The leak says the maximum single instance HP loss is limited to 18% of their Max HP + 900. The ability to teleport regularly around the arena and deal damage while ignoring shields makes the rumored enemy in Version 5.1 sound similar to Riftwolves, though it seems like the damage the leaked Chasmic Mimiflora deals is not Corrosion DMG, which continuously depletes the afflicted character’s HP inGenshin Impact.
The leak mentions that the void barrier shield used by Chasmic Mimiflora will require 40/70/105 Elemental attacks to destroy.The number of attacks should vary based on the enemy’s leveland in which activity they are presented. As such, higher-level Chasmic Mimiflora in tougher activities and possibly within the Spiral Abyss may prove to be more challenging to beat. Players will have to continuously attack the opponent simply to destroy its shield and then gain access to its health bar, all while surviving the strikes Chasmic Mimiflora and any other nearby enemies will be using inGenshin Impact.

Genshin Impact 5.1 Leaks Have Me Surprised Over An Early Story Twist
There may be a very early plot twist in Genshin Impact 5.1, as indicated by leaks, which may significantly change the course of the narrative.
Apparently, the best way to deal with this leaked enemy from Version 5.1 is to continuously use Elemental attacks against them, regardless of the power of the attacks, per si. This means using team comps that have reliable off-field sub-DPS characters that consistently use Elemental attacks while the main DPS uses their own Elemental attacks to quickly deplete their shield.Using Raiden Shogun or Yelan as sub-DPS with a catalyst-wielding DPS could help dispatch the void barrier shieldfrom the leaked Chasmic Mimiflora enemy inGenshin Impact5.1.

Physical DPS Are Useless Against Leaked Genshin Impact 5.1 Enemy
Eula & Freminet May Suffer With The Leaked Chasmic Mimiflora
Contrarily, the addition ofthe new leaked enemy in Version 5.1 could take more value away from Physical DPS characters, who rely on normal attack damage than those infused with Elements. Such characters include Eula, Razor, and Freminet, for example. Of course, the reduction in value does not only affect the main DPS units, specifically, as it also negatively impacts supporting characters who boost the power of Physical DMG. Characters like Rosaria are also among those who should have a hard time beating the leaked Chasmic Mimiflora inGenshin Impact5.1.
Genshin Impact 5.1 Leaks: Slower Players May Miss Out On Hundreds Of Free Primogems
Players may be given the chance to claim hundreds of free Primogems in Genshin Impact 5.1, but some Travelers may be left out of the rewards.
The leak about the new enemy type in Version 5.1 should be taken with a grain of salt, as the exact details about how it functions in combat and even how its shield is taken down are still highly subject to change. Buffs and nerfs can occur during the next few weeks leading up to the update’s release, which is expected to occur on October 9, givenGenshin Impact’s regular six-week schedule for every patch.
