Okay, I've been hyperventilating since HoYoverse dropped Jane Doe's gameplay trailer! 🥵 As a fellow Criminal Investigation Special Response Team agent (in my dreams), seeing her fluid combat style gave me chills. She's not just another pretty face in New Eridu – this S-Rank Physical Anomaly unit is dropping on September 4th, and holy moly, her kit looks CRACKED. After Qingyi blew our minds in Version 1.1's first half, Jane's poised to redefine the meta with those insane Physical damage multipliers. That teaser image? Chef's kiss. I'm already hoarding Boopons like a squirrel prepping for winter!
Let’s Dissect That Wild Kit
Honestly, Jane’s mechanics feel like HoYo took feedback about Anomaly teams and went ‘bet’. Her passive Sore Spot is low-key genius:
-
➕ 20% Physical Anomaly Buildup when paired with ANY Anomaly agent or Special Response teammate (Zhu Yuan stans, rejoice!)
-
➕ Extra 15% buildup if enemies are already suffering an Attribute Anomaly
Her Core Skill revolves around Passion Stream – build it up to enter Passion State mode where:
-
⚡ Physical ATK and Anomaly Buildup skyrocket
-
🔄 Maintain by landing hits or nailing Perfect Dodges/Defensive Assists
-
💥 Hold attack for Salchow Jump – rapid slashes + finisher that refills Passion Stream
But the real showstopper? Her Ultimate: Final Curtain. Imagine this:
-
Teleports through mobs like a phantom
-
Unleashes MASSIVE AoE Physical damage
-
Instantly maxes Passion Stream and triggers Passion State
Team Synergy & Meta Shakeup
Pairing her feels like putting together a dream band. She’ll absolutely slay with:
-
🔋 Grace/Piper (Anomaly batteries)
-
🛡️ Qingyi (Stun + same faction bonus)
-
New 4-star Seth (releasing on her banner for that sweet team resonance)
Current meta’s been dominated by Ellen’s DPS and Qingyi’s crowd control, but Jane? She’s bringing the pain to Shiyu Defense with sustained Physical pressure. Let’s be real – if you’ve struggled against Phys-resistant bosses, she’s your golden ticket.
My Pull Strategy (And Yours?)
I’m dumping 100% of my savings into her banner. Physical Anomaly has been underrated, and Jane’s looking like a mainstay for future content. Seth as bonus? Icing on the cake. For F2P homies: prioritize her over standard S-Ranks unless you whale. This girl’s got ‘future-proof’ written all over her.
