When HoYoVerse announced the 4.8 Genshin Impact update was live, it also noted that a Neuvillette bug fix that nerfs the amount of damage he does in certain circumstances appeared among the latest changes. The developer also noted that every player received 100 Primogems as compensation for this bug.
Specifically, the Neuvillette nerf in Genshin Impact applies to his Charged Attack: Equitable Judgment. After charging up up and unleashing what is essentially a water cannon, it would be possible to spin the character around for a greater AOE effect. This has been present and normal for us since he debuted as a playable character on September 27, 2023.
At the one minute mark of this Zhongli Unbreakable Shield video, you can see Neuvillette’s range and speed ahead of 4.8.
And this Engineering Plastics video showed Neuvillette dealing 1.5 million in damage. (Spoiler alert, as this example shows the Everlasting Lord of Arcane Wisdom: Shouki no Kami, the Prodigal Sumeru boss fight.)
Here is the text from the full message sent out to players in Genshin Impact about the Charged Attack: Equitable Judgment fix.
“Dear Traveler,
There is an issue whereby Neuvillette could rotate at an unusually high speed when casting his Charged Attack, resulting in an abnormal attack range under specific circumstances. This issue has been fixed. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused in your gaming experience and have prepared the below compensation for you. Please make sure to claim it in time.”
As for the Scope of Compensation notice in the official update notes, HoYoVerse noted,
“Bug Fix Compensation for the issue whereby Neuvillette could rotate at an unusually high speed when casting his Charged Attack, resulting in an abnormal attack range and other issue fix compensation: Travelers who have reached Adventure Rank 5 or above by 2024/07/17 06:00 (UTC+8).”
As for the 100 Primogems for the Neuvillette Genshin Impact bug fix, that is in every players’ inbox. As long as you were at Adventure Rank 5 as of July 17, 2024, you can claim it. However, the announcement noted people should read and redeem that credit from their in-game mail by July 20, 2024.
Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and Neuvillette’s last rerun appeared in April 2024.
