| Character Details | A capable person who keeps a low profile for too long is often perceived as someone with a mysterious identity and ulterior purposes. Alhaitham himself is a powerful rebuttal to all these cliché views: He is a brilliant man, but he is only an ordinary employee of the Akademiya, with a stable job and a cushy house in Sumeru, leading a carefree and comfortable life. Sometimes, people find it next to impossible to catch the current scribe in his office. Little do they know about the scribe, other than his name, "Alhaitham," and that he is supposed to be present during work hours. The fact is, no one knows his whereabouts, and all they can do is leave documents and files on his desk. Alhaitham couldn't be more satisfied with how things are. The man might be at home or in the library, but he'll never appear where people wish him to be. Having an entirely unpredictable schedule affords undisturbed freedom. |
| Character Story 1 | The title of a "scribe" may sound impressive to most Akademiya students, but this fancy name is just a product of the Akademiya's culture to use unnecessarily high-flown titles. In truth, the scribe does not have to be present at all major meetings, nor does he participate in core decision-making. The scribe is simply responsible for classifying and archiving important documents. However, in Sumeru, where books and manuscript documents were once managed as a resource, the scribe is one of the most "in-the-know" people in the entire Akademiya. One can say that this position is rather similar to that of the Grand Conservator — after all, the person who manages texts will have privileged access to profound wisdom. As the current scribe of the Sumeru Akademiya, Alhaitham acts in perfect compliance with his role: He does not attend any non-essential meetings, and when he is required to be present, he only records key points, jotting down other minute details based on his mood. If the meeting does not affect his personal interests or fails to pique his curiosity, he will not be bothered to give any comments. He does make comments, however, when someone has come up with something offensively foolish — and one should expect these comments to be more blunt than necessary. Such is Alhaitham's life philosophy: Whenever the need for his judgment arises, one must be ready to accept any means and privileges he might require to make that judgment. Fortunately for everyone, Alhaitham notes that he is too lazy to possess too many ambitions. All scholars seek knowledge and the truth. Some do so for fame, while others, for ambition. And some others enjoy conquering knowledge and the truth, transcending them, and savoring the sense of superiority in the process. Alhaitham isn't any one of them. He is only driven by what intrigues him. He believes that many scholars have already become lost in their pursuits, taking the truth as a tool or even a shortcut to self-realization. However, whether one seeks it or not, the truth is always there, hanging high above the sky like an illuminating star. It is not the end of a trip or the destination of a match. It is and shall remain constant, regardless of human existence. Also, human pursuits will not simply end after certain knowledge has been acquired — though people never doubt that they can claim the fruit with joy and are prepared to sacrifice everything for it, their desire for knowledge will keep them going. Those who fail to see through the truth set themselves on an endless path, while those with clear minds will say: The truth did not come into being to serve anyone, and whoever is unable to harness their desire for knowledge will be destroyed by it. Such is the rule of the Nation of Wisdom. Of course, if you want to blend in, you are welcome to fake such a posture. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 2 |
| Character Story 2 | To the people of Sumeru, those who played a part in the operation to save Lesser Lord Kusanali are deemed to be heroes. However, a great many who make such compliments don't really know the full story. They simply repeat a fragment of a tale that they find inspiring. As one of the protagonists in their stories, Alhaitham has no opinion whatsoever about being a "hero," nor does he believe that these stories are worth talking about. Meanwhile, Alhaitham has declined the Akademiya's offer to become the Grand Sage multiple times. But given the chaos in Sumeru, Alhaitham eventually agreed to serve as Acting Grand Sage temporarily. It already defied common logic for someone to refuse the titles of Sage and Grand Sage, and yet Alhaitham went further still, resigning and returning to his humble role as Scribe at the agreed-upon time instead of clinging to power. If he did manage to gain anything from it at all, it was the financial benefits: His salary stayed the same after his resignation, not to mention the several high-quality research projects that he was able to complete on his own. There is no doubt, then, that he will lead a well-off life. In addition, his interpersonal relationships have also improved, as he has more or less befriended the other participants in the archon-saving operation — they have gotten close to the point where Alhaitham might greet these people with a nod or two when he sees them. Sometimes, Lesser Lord Kusanali will also invite Alhaitham to the Sanctuary of Surasthana to discuss various matters. He has met many people there: the General Mahamatra Cyno, the mercenary Dehya, and Nilou, star of the Zubayr Theater. Nilou even once asked him: "How did you manage to come up with such a bold plan? When I think back on it, we were all quite lucky to not get hurt..." Nilou hesitated before she continued, and Alhaitham understood her confusion, for anyone would have wondered how he could have stayed unscathed despite the influence of the Divine Knowledge Capsule. But in Alhaitham's eyes, he was never in danger, for he had never used any capsules. As for how he had managed to do that, it was all thanks to his role as the scribe. As a scholar lucky enough to have read the Akasha's system manual, he had studied the headset and Canned Knowledge, such that he knew how to alter the status signal of the Akasha. He had even once thought of reversing the holographic shield of the Akasha Terminal and projecting it to the back of his head to offer protection from attacks on that front. It has been proven that a plan lays the foundation for everything, and that prior research lays the foundation for a plan. Alhaitham, who had no interest in boasting about how he remained unscathed, answered Nilou's question with another: "As far as I know, Cyno and Dehya are also curious about this, yet you are the only one who has raised this question. Were they just too shy to ask me themselves?" * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 3 |
| Character Story 3 | Alhaitham seldom discusses personalities or dispositions with others. He believes that the prevalent theories about them are wrong. Suppose someone insists that one's character has nothing to do with their abilities and opinions, the person with such a view will find themselves unable to judge any aspect of another person. A smart person will often hold different attitudes towards a foolish person and another smart person, and the foolish often think differently when facing success and failure. People's views on Alhaitham are proof of this point — given his superb talents and egocentric personality, no one wants to get too close to him, but still, they see him as an outstanding scholar. This is exactly the public image Alhaitham desires. Many scholars are rigid and inflexible, but Alhaitham is not one of them. As a matter of fact, his occasional sarcasm in part reflects his philosophy. Society (or the collective) relies on rules to regulate individuals, and language is one of these regulative tools. Turning language against its original design serves to challenge unreasonable rules, and one can thus stay out of trouble. The word "talented" is abused within the Akademiya, and so are "born differently," "touched by the archon," and such... In Sumeru, one's talents are a trial. Outstanding talent is not necessarily seen as a perfect gift, but it also divides people. For instance, to compliment someone with unimaginable achievements, ordinary folk often call them a "genius," or "superhuman," or a "prodigy"... But upon reflection, one will soon notice another layer of meaning that even the speakers themselves have not realized: That the talented and the ordinary are categorically different. If someone is capable of things that others aren't, they must have been endowed with some special abilities and gifts. Excessive compliments for and wild imagination regarding outstanding people only serve to alienate them. "They are successful because they are different" — such is the typical excuse favored by underachievers. These ignorant notions mean nothing to Alhaitham. Though he does know his way around people, he will not waste his time on such trivial matters. Rules define borders and set limits. Yet these rules should not be judged solely on the number of people they limit. Therefore, Alhaitham has come up with his own set of rules with which he perceives everything and challenges the world. It is the crystallization of his philosophy. To maintain these rules of his own fashioning, Alhaitham acts on his own will and deals with anything that appears harmful in his eyes. Only with objective judgment can one see the truth. By acknowledging the differences between individuals and recognizing differing levels of capabilities and mental capacities, one will discover the answer right away: Judgment from others is inconsequential, but to leave the right of judgment in others' hands is equal to denying oneself. To be "different" should not simply be a label given to you by others. Rather, the talented should have long understood that their uniqueness is also a gift. To put it another way, when a talented person truly understands that they are different and that they are indisputably ingenious, only then can they truly understand the value of their abilities. And as for cowards who remain blinded by perspectives advocated by the great majority, they have not yet found their true selves. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Character Story 4 | To live a peaceful and comfortable life, one must meet a few requirements first: Congruous personality and logic, adequate fighting prowess, a slow-paced job, and a cushy house in the vicinity of one's office. Alhaitham has checked all the boxes above. He would never deny that no place suits him better than the Nation of Wisdom, where social capital is linked to one's academic abilities. His current house, which is located near the Akademiya, is one of the academic resources that he gained through promising research projects. This house's story dates back to Alhaitham's student years. If his classmates still remember him, they will recall that he was not one to mingle with the crowd. As a result, he has only participated in one joint research project. Despite its eventual success, the project resulted in a huge quarrel and a parting of ways. Little do people know about Alhaitham's part in this story, though they might be acquainted with the other protagonist: The Kshahrewar architect Kaveh. This academic incident is not very widely-known — and in truth, the tale of two geniuses falling out due to differing perspectives is an all-too-familiar one in the Akademiya. But even though their collaboration did fall through, neither of them will deny the other party's exceptional brilliance. As for their research, the Akademiya would later transfer the relevant assets to the researchers involved as per regulation. Although the two did not continue that research, its great success in the early stage still serves as compelling proof of Alhaitham's academic ability. Later, the Akademiya even used this project, which they had forgotten to cancel, as a reference for allocating housing resources, and as such, Alhaitham was given a very decent house befitting his participation in this ingenious project. But the other contributor, Kaveh, had never approached Alhaitham regarding that allocation. It wasn't until later that Kaveh had someone inform Alhaitham and the Akademiya that he was not in want of a house and thus had no use of this property. When next they met, Kaveh had gone bankrupt. According to Alhaitham, this former friend of his possesses a personality and values that are not congruous with his abilities. The two differ on too many things and cannot reach a consensus even today. Allowing Kaveh to stay in this house provides Alhaitham with an interesting research topic: Legally and socially speaking, since Kaveh has previously forfeited the right to his half of this house, he should pay the landlord during his stay. However, paying rent would, to some extent, deny his contribution to the research, which contradicts the academic spirit. An intriguing matter to consider, but Alhaitham has no interest in the answer. Thus, he has taken his broke former colleague in, collects rent as the rightful landlord, and gives his colleague some household chores. He is well aware of the dissatisfaction Kaveh might have, but it matters not to him. As far as Alhaitham is concerned, Kaveh is a familiar face, similarly lacks familial attachments, and is the polar opposite of himself as a scholar — that is to say, an excellent mirror. Human vision is limited, but it can be perfected through the presence of another genius. Taking this opportunity, Alhaitham will be able to observe other aspects of this world and thus understand more things that may have otherwise been unfathomable. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 5 |
| Character Story 5 | The Nation of Wisdom places academics and knowledge above everything else. As such, a scholar acknowledged by others within the Akademiya usually possesses a higher social status. Alhaitham was born to just such a family of well-received scholars. His parents died very early in an accident, and he was raised by his grandmother, a Kshahrewar scholar. Alhaitham doesn't have many recollections of his parents. He learned from his grandmother that they were both employed by the Akademiya, with his father being a mentor in Haravatat and his mother, a renowned scholar in Vahumana. Alhaitham has inherited his parents' intelligence, and he was always the sharp kid amongst his peers, so much so that he started reading abstruse academic journals at around the age of seven. Having noticed his exceptional talents, Alhaitham's grandmother suggested that he attend school early. However, it only took half a day in the Akademiya for little Alhaitham to report this back to his grandmother: Everyone he met there was boring and he preferred reading alone to listening to their meaningless courses. Alhaitham's grandmother saw his parents' talents and personalities in him, and agreed to let him stay home to be self-taught. To Alhaitham, "to be self-taught" means to read, break down, reorganize, and question. Due to his family background, he was lucky to be exposed to books made of paper. Interestingly enough, he takes more pleasure in reading his grandmother's hard-copy collections than obtaining knowledge from the Akasha directly. As opposed to the Akasha, books are inflexible and rigid, and there is no guarantee that their contents are error-free either. To use such a medium of knowledge is to dance with potential misinformation. The majority of people in Sumeru hate this, but Alhaitham derives great enjoyment from it. It was from reading that he acquired the ability to learn, analyze, and even rectify, and ultimately, he has learned to question. If the rustic and primitive method known as reading is ever any trouble, it is trouble that Alhaitham appreciates. Alhaitham's grandmother told him: "You and your father both like reading. Now, I can't say if the two of you have been given too much share of wisdom or not, but always remember that being different is a gift." Knowledge is to be recognized, pursued, and trusted, but one should never forget to question it. Perhaps only those who come to such an understanding will not be easily moved by Canned Knowledge and other convenient knowledge media. And only someone who had already met these prerequisites would have casually read the Akasha manual sealed deep within the House of Daena. As Alhaitham's grandmother had said, books contain useless information, and sometimes in large amounts, but his sharp mind will sift through them — and if a book he has read lingers in his memory, it will come in handy one day. After his grandmother's passing, Alhaitham managed her funeral on his own, inheriting her properties and her small library. Before she passed away, Alhaitham's grandmother gave him this earnest blessing: "You are such a smart child. Many such people have large egos and a propensity to act on their own. You are outstanding and possess a broader horizon than ordinary people. This is not a bad thing, but you must take care to have a clearer mind than others. You must understand that vain pursuits are but dust, and that you must discern your path with the greatest of wisdom." Later, Alhaitham applied for the Akademiya and was immediately admitted, scoring high marks in the Haravatat entrance exam. He was informed that his grandmother had also applied for him to be able to attend classes in other Darshans. Following his late grandmother's advice, Alhaitham has always kept a low profile and a clear mind, and always makes decisions for himself. Years later, when Alhaitham moved into his new house, he brought all those books over. While sorting through them, he flipped through a few that he had read long ago. The journals that had well-wishes written on their title pages were from his mother's collection, and the ones with reference materials inserted between pages and notes on the margins had once belonged to his father. On top of them, there was a thick book with an exquisite, emerald-colored cover. On the title page, his grandmother had written thus: May my child Alhaitham lead a peaceful life. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |
| The Doer's Belt Pouch | A sturdy and durable green belt pouch. People often mistake it for a wide belt, an impression perhaps reinforced by its color being in perfect harmony with Alhaitham's outfit. There are only a few things in this pouch: Keys, some recent read of Alhaitham's, and a portable music player that goes with his headphones. Alhaitham personally made the music player when he first became the scribe, and it is connected to the headphones via cables of the same color. He sometimes uses the gadget to play music, and other times, to block noise. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Vision | "The value of language is not limited to words. A unified language helps to govern thoughts. Language is the bottom line, rules, weapons, and violence. By making our language unique, we can open up a special path to the relative completion of minds. Governing thoughts may appear meaningless to some, but to others, it has a very significant meaning. Individuals' pursuit of uniqueness gives rise to various languages and media. People are controlled by language under many circumstances." As Alhaitham flipped through these pages, reaching the end of the book and its back cover, he realized that an intricate ornament had been underneath the tome this whole time. Of course, he knew what it was — a Vision, the proof of one's power. However, this item did not mean much to him. A believer might have perceived this divine item to be a thing most lofty, but to him, it was no more than a useful tool. Alhaitham was out on a research trip when he was given the Vision. He didn't plan to dwell too much on it. It belonged to him, after all, so what difference would it make if he checked on it tomorrow, as opposed to today? And just like the knowledge he has acquired, what he has obtained shall always remain in his possession. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |

his combat flow seems weird with his mirror generation with burst. so like is he either burst focused or natk focused? if this is the case then he would still need a lot of energy for natk focus to cast his burst for fast mirror set up. would he play like skill for mirror set ups, wait for mirrors to disappear then burst for longer uptime?
[skill > ca > burst] for probably the highest multiplier in the game. But now you got a 14s-ish cooldown on your skill and your energy is empty.
[ca > burst > skill > na] and depending on the timing of your skill, you can get “4” mirrors for the c6 passive (2 from skill because you had 0 to start, and 2 more later from the burst payback). And now you got 12s of infusion to Unga Bunga with, leaving you with a 6s downtime, and depending on energy factors, your burst is probably full now. *Skyward Blade, anyone?*
[skill > ca > na > burst when no mirror > na > ca] for maximum infusion time, around 26s. By the time the infusion ends your skill is already back up. But your supports’ skill and burst typically only lasts 12-15s so it’s a waste of time (unless you have Raiden and Nahida with their 25s long skill).
Love Alhaitam. Helps me save primos
Dendro Keqing kekw. No way he gonna top Scaraking’s sales tbh
Damn im not usually one to advocate for nerf balancing but aren’t his multipliers too high??
303 atk% + 576 EM% combined on his skill projectiles, thats higher than Nahida’s E and procs faster
2180 atk% + 4370 EM% on his burst??? Ehh????
Comparing that to Keqing’s measly 842 atk% on her burst.
Unless im missing something Alhaitham is shaping up to be a game breaking Spread DPS, probably out dpsing all the roster with just c0 and fiscel.
it’s 218.0% atk not 2180% atk but yeah his multiplies is still pretty high. seems like a solid dps on paper so far
Dude multiplied it by 10 because if you have 3 Chisel-Light Mirrors, you get 10 instances of damage on Alhaitham’s Burst. Funny how you saw Keqing doing 842% on her burst and thought “Yeah that’s accurate”. Also it’s 218.88% atk%.
that’s per hit and he does 10 hits, so yeah 2180% multiplier, almost yae’s with 3 turrets + em scaling.
keqing % lower but she’s Crit ascend + wide AOE Q
however El_Heitham spam EAA to buff ok AoE Q, 11instances dmg only 3xSpread maybe
Why are his CDs so long and it sucks that his normals don’t scale off EM as well. Also weird to call the stacking mechanic, mirrors when they don’t function like mirrors. I was hoping for something like he can place these diamond shaped mirrors on the field and these mirrors would copy/reflect what Alhaitham does. Idk I thought that be more unique but implementation could be messy and difficult. As of right now, not really interested in pulling for him even though I have some pretty sick gilded pieces for him.
Does he generate particles on E cast or on infused hit? Because if it’s the latter, you could burst and get a full 12 seconds of infusion and particle generation, which kind of sounds nuts.
E cast and probably from the mirror damage as well.
I don’t know why people are calling Hoyoverse lazy for this. This Keqing skin is amazing! It’s the most detail they have ever put into a skin, it looks like a whole different character!
Trolling aside, he will at least have a higher damage ceiling than Keqing if he keeps these scalings. I’m skipping tho, got to save for Dehya.
I agree, this is definitely gonna be a 6 star skin with a price tag of 16,000 genesis crystals with the amount of details and cool new alternative skill animations, they even changed her element! Unfortunately, I wish for Keqing to stick being a woman, and electro supremacy.
um can someone explain in razor language what the skill do ? if anything what i understood was 1 mirror at the beginning of the skill ,1 when u charge or plunge (passive) which has 12 sec cooldown so how to create the 3rd one ? when u use skill does it give infusion and for how long might that last if i use a c0 haitham (i assume its 12 sec if no mirrors before using skill and the one charged in between do correct me if i am wrong )? also does the infused haithams multipliers be same as his normal hit multiplier
One mirror is generated when casting the skill, the second one is generated automatically (If there are no Mirrors at this time ((when casting E)), he will generate 1 additional Mirror), and the third one comes from doing a charge or plunge attack by his A1. His infusion lasts as long as he has mirrors, which at the max of 3 is 12 seconds, since they disappear 4 seconds after the previous one is gone.
Basically: Casting E attacks and generates one mirror. If there were no mirrors before casting, it generates a second mirror immediately. Plunging or charging generates a third mirror. His attacks are converted to Dendro, and it can’t be overwritten. The mirrors are on a 4-second timer to disappear, and the timer starts after the previous one has disappeared. With three mirrors, that means total infusion time is 12 seconds, leaving a 6-second downtime on the skill.
If he uses the skill with no mirrors, he will get 2 mirrors. Then yes, the third mirror is created by his A1 passive. Therefore, you want to open his rotation by using the skill right away. If you use a normal attack and generate a mirror, then the skill will only give one mirror.
The skill grants dendro infusion for 8 seconds by default (4 seconds per mirror, you start with 2 mirrors by just using the skill). A total of 12 seconds of infusion factoring in the passive. Then, every 1.6 seconds there will be a dendro explosion from his normal attacks. Yeah, I would assume the multipliers for the infused attacks are the same as his normal attacks if it works like other characters.
Any TC here? is he on hu tao/ayaka level or itto/ayato level?
Mihoyo made him incredibly safe. He has nothing unique or gimicky, but nothing too boring either, apart from his ult.
He has strong multipliers for each part of his kit, great auto animations, passives that buff his damage and crafting. It’s just the issue that he has nothing unique compared to other units, but that’s probably a good thing since he’s very popular.
his attack animation are pretty cool.
Besides multipliers that are STC, there are a lot of nuances in his kit – both visually and mechanically. It’s far from safe. lol
well he’s not female, not an Archon, he’s not from Liyue, he’s not pyro or cryo. everything points out to him being a mid unit overall since he doesn’t meet any of the criteria mihoyo holds to make good units, regardless of multipliers, so let’s cope
Well all those points also apply to kazuha so i was just hoping they would make a mistake and release another one like him since we usually only have 1 good male character from each region but oh well lets hope at least baizhu will be somewhat decent since at least he’s from liyue
Kazuha is Liyue’s step son
pyro.. if only this was true 🙁 the last pyro unit we had came out 1,5 year ago and that was Yoimia. Now watch how hoyo will make Dehya mid and then release 13456778 limited 5* hydro characters in next year
Tbh I was very excited for alhaitham thinking that he was gonna be another kazuha case who’s almost used in every team but lo and behold hoyo won’t ever allow another strong male character he is just another weak male main dps like cyno, wanderer, itto and ayato
kindly, fk off
not all characters have to be midzuha
you can cope all you want about how bad supposedly kazuha is but the facts is that kazuha was the last good male character
That’s your own opinion.
average geo fan
First of all, he’s Dendro, not Anemo, so he’d never be able to react with and buff units the same way Kazuha does. Get a grip.
I didn’t say i wanted an exact copy of kazuha but with dendro i just wanted another good non main dps male character like kazuha. he doesn’t need to be anemo to be a good non main dps
“thinking that he was gonna be another kazuha case who’s almost used in every team”
Is what you said. By virtue of his Element, it’s impossible for Alhaitham to be a staple in almost every team, like Kazuha. Unless you meant like some sort of Dendro buffer or off-field Dendro DPS for Dendro reaction teams?
doesn’t to be anemo, more like dendro male nahida
he has crazy mutlipliers, where are you pulling the “like cyno, wanderer etc…” from? none of those characters entered beta with good numbers, and there were always comments that always for the kit multipliers raised.
with alhaitham, his kit has ayaka level multipliers – damage shouldn’t be an issue. but i am scared they’ll nerf him to the ground like they did with faruzan but we’ll see.
Already decided that way back then, I’d get Scaramouche 100%, and then I’d get Alhaitham.
truly didn’t expect for Haitham to be running directly in the patch afterwards. I would have hoped that he’d be pushed back a little bit like 3.5 or so. I need more primogems cause I already got Scaramouche.
what are you even talking about? Itto and Ayato are both amazing units,,, In what way they are weak?? Itto is a monster in mono geo with a very accessible nuke on E and if u get Ayato u are set for any hydro u would ever need since he does everything and has very good dmg as well. Plus dendro elevated him super high as an onfielder. Not sure about Scara yet but it doesn’t even matter since he is super fun.
