Ability Tips

Kokomi’s Elemental Burst dynamically alters her skill’s damage, this means that you cannot use her Burst to snapshot the buff onto the Skill and swap out.

Gameplay Tips

Support Kokomi focuses on just using her Elemental Burst before her Elemental Skill’s duration ends to refresh her skill duration. This allows 100% uptime on Hydro application from her Elemental Skill for Freeze / Electro-charge teams.

Regarding Weapon Choices:

• Hakushin Ring: This weapon can provide Elemental DMG% for the team in Electro-charged teams and will outperform Prototype Amber if you value damage more than healing.
• Sacrificial Fragments: Can be useful as Kokomi won’t need to use her Elemental Burst to reset her skill duration. This allows for smoother rotations as she will not face the problem of missing out on the reset for her Elemental Skill due to not casting Burst in time.

Regarding Artifact Sets:

• Tenacity of the Millelith (4): With proper extension of Kokomi’s Elemental Skill, she can maintain near 100% uptime on this artifact set’s 4 piece effect.
• Ocean Hued Clam (4): This ranking assumes Kokomi is being used only for her Elemental Skill. If she is being used to attack onfield during Elemental Burst, this set may overtake Tenacity of the Millelith (4).

Regarding Main Stats and Sub Stats:

• Energy Recharge: Prioritise Energy Recharge first to ensure you can always use Elemental Burst before the Elemental Skill expires in order to maintain Hydro application. Without Prototype Amber, Kokomi will need ~200-220%+ Energy Recharge (170-190% with Prototype Amber at [R1] and 150-170% at [R5])

Ability Tips

Due to Kokomi’s high stamina cost on her Charged Attacks, her best attack strings are:

• At [C0]: N2D
• At [C1]: N3D*

*N3D might result in a loss of Beidou Stormbreaker hits (DPS loss), and as such is only recommended in a Vaporize comp where the added Hydro application is favoured.

*NA = Normal Attack, D = Dash

Gameplay Tips

DPS Kokomi aims to maximise her onfield damage during her Elemental Burst’s duration. Outside of her Elemental Burst, her damage is lackluster and not worth building for.

Regarding Weapon Choices:

• Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers: Although this weapon doesn’t provide as much personal damage for Kokomi, the 48% ATK buff is usually more worth in most cases. This can be her best weapon in for overall team DPS if you don’t already have another TTDS user in your team.
• Hakushin Ring: This weapon can provide Elemental DMG% for the team in Electro-charged teams, and will usually be the best choice in those situations.

Regarding Artifact Sets:

• Tenacity of the Millelith (4): Although this set offers the lowest personal dmg for Kokomi, the 20% ATK team buff can sometimes be better for overall team DPS.
