Genshin Impact Hexerei Guide: Full Character List and Secret Rite Buffs Explained

fragster Jennifer Davis 22. November 2025

Summary:

 

  • A new synergy system, Hexerei, is arriving in the Genshin Impact Luna II update, intending to buff several Mondstadt characters like Albedo, Klee, Venti, and Durin.
  • Working similarly to the Moonsign mechanic, Hexerei: Secret Rite effects can be activated when at least two Hexerei members are in the same team.
  • Players can turn specific characters into Hexerei members by completing tasks in the upcoming “Witch’s Homework” event.

If you liked the Moonsign system in Nod-Krai, you’re going to love what’s coming next. The Genshin Impact Hexerei system in Luna III works kind of the same way, this time for Mondstadt characters. It gives them the upgrades they’ve been needing, like stronger combat buffs, better team synergy, and more flexible team builds. If you’re not sure how Hexerei works, who’s included, or how to unlock the buffs, this guide is here to help.

What Is the Genshin Impact Hexerei System?

Much like the Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam effect, the Genshin Impact Hexerei system is like a special team bonus that activates when you use at least two Hexerei characters together. When it turns on, it improves their damage and adds extra effects to their skills and bursts. This makes Hexerei characters much stronger when they team up, so players are encouraged to build teams around them.

But you can’t activate these buffs immediately. Each Hexerei character needs to finish their “Witch’s Homework” tasks first.

All Hexerei Characters

The roster for the Genshin Impact Hexerei system includes some fan-favorite older units and new additions from Luna III. Here’s the full character list:

  • Albedo
  • Klee
  • Durin
  • Fischl
  • Venti
  • Razor
  • Sucrose
  • Mona

Each character receives different upgrades through Secret Rite, improving their damage, comfort, or team utility.

Witch’s Homework: Unlocking the Hexerei Buffs

When Genshin Impact’s Luna III update arrives, the special event “Witch’s Homework” will be available permanently. This questline is how you turn certain characters into Hexerei members. Each character gets their own set of tasks that fit their personality and skills. For example, Klee—Mondstadt’s little explosion expert—has a task that involves helping Dodoco. Once you finish a character’s tasks, they officially become part of the Hexerei group and can activate the Secret Rite buffs when teamed up with another Hexerei character.

Each Hexerei character gets special upgrades that make their abilities stronger or easier to use. Here’s a simple look at what each one gains:

Albedo

Albedo’s Skill now creates Silver Isotomas that boost his Transient Blossom damage. These also increase the whole team’s damage based on his DEF, making him a better support.

Klee

Klee feels smoother to play because her Normal Attack chain no longer resets during her Burst. Her third Normal Attack also uses an Explosive Spark and triggers an extra Charged Attack, giving her more overall damage.

Durin

Durin’s Burst becomes stronger in both forms. His White form reduces enemy resistance better, and his Dark form increases the power of Melt and Vaporize reactions. This makes him very strong in reaction teams.

Venti

Venti’s Normal Attacks become Anemo-infused while his Burst is active, so he can fight as an on-field DPS. His Burst also now lands exactly in the center of enemies, so it’s more reliable.

Fischl

Fischl’s buffs give her teams different buffs when Oz is on the field, based on the elemental reactions they trigger. For example, Fischl gives the whole team an ATK boost when any member triggers Overload. Meanwhile, if they trigger Electro-Charged or Lunar Charged, the team gains more Elemental Mastery.

Razor

Razor gets a damage buff and also fixes his energy issues. Now, he gets bonus AoE Electro damage when his Electro Sigils overflow in his burst state. He can also cast his burst easier since he also recovers energy during it.

Sucrose and Mona

For these two characters, there haven’t been details yet about the buffs they will receive. However, if we would assume that early leaks are correct, then it’s likely they will get buffs that improve their usual roles—Sucrose for boosting EM and Mona for stronger Hydro reactions and burst setups.

Conclusion

Many players have worried about powercreep in Genshin Impact, but the Luna III update seems to help resolve this issue as it allows older units to catch up. With the Genshin Impact Hexerei system, several Mondstadt characters become relevant again and fit better in modern teams. More characters may be added to Hexerei in future updates, so the system will likely grow over time—or HoYoverse may introduce another feature like it later on.
