Genshin Impact 1.6 Leaks: Boat Move Feature, Inazuma, New Weapons and Repair Tools
Genshin Impact 1.6 leaks reveal information about the future of the game, including a new possible mode of movement, new weapons, and a way for players to enter Inazuma in the future.
Players can read all about these new features here, as well as learn about the new boat movement system in the Genshin Impact 1.6 update.
Genshin Impact 1.6 leaks: new boat trips, weapons and more
Two new 4* weapons:

The most interesting feature from the Genshin Impact 1.6 leaks is the possibility of players getting their own boats to travel within Inazuma. This “Skiff Repair Tool Kit” was found in the Genshin Impact files and appears to be used to repair a player's skiff after damage. Skiffs are small boats typically used for short-distance water travel. If players are to travel through the Inazuma island region, it would make sense for them to have a way to travel by water.
This could be a whole new way to get around in Genshin Impact and open the door to all types of vehicles and mobility. Players will be able to get their hands on this “Skiff Repair Tool Kit” sometime in the Genshin Impact 1.6 update.
Genshin Impact 1.6 New Weapon Plums
Another interesting point is the recently leaked 4-star weapon, which seems to be suitable for Fischl and Klee. The method of obtaining these weapons is currently unknown, but it is likely that they will be associated with the "Ludi Harpastum" event in Mondstadt, since both Klee and Fischl are younger residents of Mondstadt. The “Ludi Garpastum” event is a previously leaked Genshin Impact event that focuses around children and is likely the event where Klee will relaunch.
Players should keep an eye out for any additional hints of this event, although with the information leaked, it is very likely that this event will happen soon.
This new weapon brings powerful bonuses to every character. The bow called Mitternachts Waltz is perfect for Fischl's main DPS, having a physical damage exalt status and an effect that causes normal hits on enemies to increase elemental DMG by 20% for 5 seconds. Elemental skill hits on enemies also increase normal DMG attack by 20% for 5 seconds. This is very important for Fischl's main DPS, as she wants to constantly attack enemies normally.
The new catalyst for Klee is currently unnamed, but it rises with % attack and increases Charged Attack Damage for each normal attack.
Genshin Impact 1.6 Leaks: Infiltrating Inazuma
Inazuma will begin with Beidou (and her crew) helping you secretly enter the region. It's through this that you'll meet Kazuha as well.

This will double as a re-introduction to boats which will be frequently used in Inazuma

The Genshin Impact 1.6 leaks have also revealed that Inazuma's method of infiltrating will be sneak infiltration rather than a grand welcome as was the case in previous regions. This infiltration is due to the fact that Inazuma's borders are closed to entry. The archon is much more unfriendly than the others. Players will have to team up with Bei Dou and her crew as they escort players to Inazuma and this will introduce players to the boats.
