Oh, i never thought about using both parts of Fischl Hexerei talent at once, i either specialize in one or the other. That's good insight, all i can hope now is getting some Fischl cons' when i'll pull for Columbina.

Also thx for sharing the details, i didn't know about that voting web event.

Thank you for coming up with these! I would love to try the second comb as I have all the characters in there. Any sense on power gap vs. the flagship lunar teams? How much “worse” relatively speaking? Appreciate that the game is not all about damage and coming up with creative team comp can be so much fun. I just wanted to understand the relative performance!

Yup, people who try to just talk about her potential with other Nod Krai 5\*s completely miss the point of her kit.

That’s what she’s best at. Buffing Lunar reactions is her main draw. It makes sense people hype up her making meta teams the best teams in the game more than making budget cope teams slightly less cope.

jinxedandcursed2026-01-16 06:49

She enables Lunar reactions by herself. That's kinda the point. She can buff the Lunar reactions she herself can enable, and being a hydro there's access to ALL of them.

DaSpood2026-01-16 08:52

Lunar reactions do little damage though. All LC/LB/LCr damage from lunar teams come from the characters themselves, not from the reactions. Lunar Charge without Ineffa will hit about the same as Electro Charge, Lunar Bloom does litteraly nothing on its own and has the lowest multipliers because Lauma exists, Lunar Crystalize is the same as Lunar Charge but this one is at least coming from a reaction that does nothing so it's a flat upgrade.

Slotting Bina in a tazer team to enable LC is just applying a skin to the damage numbers. Again most of that type of damage will come from her directly.

DaSpood2026-01-16 08:48

90% of her kit revolves around buffing and relying on lunar reactions and people saying she needs other NK characters "miss the point of her kit" ?

If you want to pull a five star to use as a worse Xingqiu go for it buddy but don't pretend to be smart about it lol.

There are possible teams for her for those who want her regardless of usability because they like the character, but let's not pretend for a second these teams are anywhere near those that use NK characters.

You were really that angry to comment twice?

DaSpood2026-01-16 08:55

I answer to two different comments with two different responses ?

if you pull columbina and have no nodcrai units you just must pull ineffa now

Or keep waiting for Zibai.

Thanks for this! I use Columbina, Nahida, Xingqiu and Raiden but I might replace Xingqiu now with Aino. May I know what build should I use for Aino? And for Bina, what stats should I look for? And based on my understanding, Raiden and Nahida here should have full EM build right? Thanks!
