The upcoming Genshin Impact 5.5 update is set to introduce two intriguing artifact sets: “Finale of the Deep Galleries”and “Long Night’s Oath.”Each set is designed with distinct effects to enhance various characters and elements. Notably, the Long Night’s Oath set is tailored specifically for a Plunge DPS build, ideally suited for the character Varesa.
In contrast, the Finale of the Deep Galleries set currently lacks a designated character to wield its full potential. However, its aesthetic and design suggest a close connection to a forthcoming character, sparking considerable excitement among fans.
Exploring the Finale of the Deep Galleries: Could It Be Intended for Skirk?
HoYoverse has officially revealed that the Finale of the Deep Galleries will launch with Genshin Impact Version 5.5, showcasing a focus on Cryo elements through its unique effects:
- 2-Piece Set Effect: Increases Cryo DMG Bonus by 15%.
- 4-Piece Set Effect: If the character is at 0 Elemental Energy, both Normal Attack DMG and Elemental Burst DMG increase by 60%. After executing a Normal Attack, the Elemental Burst buff ceases for 6 seconds, and after using Elemental Burst, the Normal Attack bonus stops applying for the same duration. This effect can activate even if the character is not currently on the battlefield.
To date, no Cryo characters in Genshin Impact can fully utilize the four-piece effect of the Finale of the Deep Galleries set. However, the implications suggest a design created specifically for an impending character, widely speculated to be Skirk.

Moreover, the design of this artifact set aligns closely with Skirk’s color scheme, and intriguingly, she sports a feather accessory from the Finale of the Deep Galleries as part of her hairstyle. This correlation suggests a purposeful design meant for her character, hinting not only at her inevitable release but also providing insights into her potential gameplay mechanics.
Previous leaks had pointed toward Skirk making her debut in Genshin Impact Version 5.7, paired with the Cryo element. With the recent official announcements from HoYoverse confirming details regarding the Finale of the Deep Galleries, it appears these speculations may indeed hold water.
