Is this the correct setup for a Skirk team?

(pretend Kaeya is skirk lol)

Would furina on Golden Troupe and fav sword, Citlali on Tenacity and TTDS, Yelan on Emblem and fav bow be the best combination for skirk? Im assuming yes but I wanna be sure before I start farming

Please feel free to give suggestions!

Where's your healer

-Sky_Nova_20-2026-01-27 06:27

It honestly annoys me seeing people trying to use Furina without a healer. The HP drain is no joke.

Ordinary_Divide2026-01-27 10:15

just go nohit

Impossible_Lock11722026-01-27 11:08

The only downside is the lack of fanfare. Else, lot’s of people are very used to playing no sustain

BrutalSeggs672026-01-27 14:28

I use furina as healer for my mualani 🫣😊

natlansucks2026-01-27 20:27

That's not even the problem, it's that you're wasting Furina's buff by not using a healer. Unless you have c6 or are using her with Neuvillette, you *need* a healer whether you like it or not, because she can't build fanfare properly without one.

Citlali on TTDS

BrutalSeggs672026-01-28 01:58

You mean prototype amber?

Black-----Manta2026-01-27 04:39

No, coffee is much better than Citlali, she does very little here. If you're gonna play Skirk, get Escoffier

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:04

Citlali has cinder city and TTDS. Which if I recall is much stronger in this team over yelan's personal damage and damage bonus.

Black-----Manta2026-01-27 05:42

No, Yelan's A4, damage, and hydro res puts her over Citlali, although Citlali does have better sustain against bosses.

Doesn't matter though, the best 4th slot there is actually Mualani since she also has scroll + TTDS, and gives hydro res

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:44

You sure? I'm seeing some players MW calcs over 3+ rotations prefer citlali over yelan since citlali had a near 40 second uptime on cinder city.

Black-----Manta2026-01-27 05:51

Citlali's at 95k and Yelans at 96k. Ultimately doesn't matter since Skirks 4th slot is famously "throw shit at wall"

[source](https://www.reddit.com/r/SkirkMains/s/iMw7OWGs7a). There were no v5 changes or developments since.

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 06:41

Like I said, Citlali did better than Yelan in some people's testing with 3+ rotations. Which is a better way to communicate dps than the ultra optimized strict paper calculations.

Black-----Manta2026-01-27 06:51

These actually have the opposite problem where they aren't optimized lol. Which is why the DPS is so low, it assumes KQM standards (Yelan scales better with higher stats due to lack of HP buffs and res shred being oversaturated so the standards being low doesn't matter here, which massively sways the favor for yelan)

"In some people's testing on MW" isn't exactly a vote of reliability. Really the only advantage Citlali has is the shield, which is a more than reasonable reason to use her over Yelan. But for damage, Yelan and Mualani are always going to be better

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 07:09

Then it could be skill issue on the part of the players then or the fact they are using Skirk's charge attack combo.

PassionIll32812026-01-27 04:40

Escoffier would ideally(heh) replace yelan here, but yeah you kinda want a healer if you're going to run Furina. Also Citlali should be on scroll as far as I know

PassionIll32812026-01-27 04:54

Fair

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:09

How so? TTDS citlali with cinder + her res shred should be more valuable than the damage bonus, hydro res, and personal damage Yelan provides. Plus, she has insane uptime on cindercity.

WashedWolf42422026-01-27 05:22

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:26

I assume you mean escoffier's. Even then, if you assume it is insignificant enough, citlali provides 40% damage bonus for almost 40 seconds and 48% attack to skirk. Yelan provides 1% damage bonus up to 50% over time during the duration of her burst with personal damage.

Citlali has more going for her.

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:30

Damn, you thought that. It was the hydro shred for furina idiot.

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 05:41

How about you try to read what I said before commenting.

You clearly don't know my level of understanding and clearly don't have the balls to even speak up upon it.

Even if furina's personal damage is lower. Skirk doesn't get any sources of attack in the team other than tenacity furina. Which isn't much. This then makes ttds citlali very good. Not just that, she can hold cinder city providing 40% cryo and hydro damage bonus for 40 seconds. Which benifits escoffier personal damage and skirk's personal damage.

Yelan, provides up to a 50% damage bonus over time during her burst duration. Meaning it won't buff escoffier after skirk is done with her combos. Sure she has much higher personal damage, but it is not worth putting nobless on yelan when citlali on ttds is an option.

JusticeBean2026-01-27 05:30

Me when cinder city set

ZestycloseEmployer622026-01-27 05:55

24% atk since every other rotation dilutes 48%

ZestycloseEmployer622026-01-27 05:58

Yelan gives hydro resonance aswell to buff furina

Happy-Snow37282026-01-27 06:28

Citlali doesn't shred cryo + procing scroll for Cryo here is very hard in freeze teams

RubApprehensive25122026-01-27 06:38

I am talking about the hydro res shred for furina.

Berry_Sprout2026-01-27 10:18

Just not as useful sadly

gryphon_duke2026-01-27 09:35

nope. best i could do on my third rotation was 122k. i took 64.48% hp OFF of my c2 r2 yelan to get her burst ticks to 6.7k (lmao), lower than favonius c0 yelan so that her c2 arrow doesnt overdo it, and it came out to 130k. citlali is not as good of a support as yelan. yelan's even better than shenhe if you give them both constellations, my yelan brings skirk to 140k without nerfs.

_ironhearted_2026-01-27 04:41

Furina would need a healer so Charlotte or another healer might be better than Citlali

bastianwibisana2026-01-27 07:16

skirk, escoffier, furina. last slot can be citlali (ttds) if you use eshu, but if your skirk is c0r1 then shenhe if you have calamity, otherwise yelan with max dmg (ensure energy for burst every rotation) for sub dps and dmg buff

pzlama3332026-01-27 07:29

You can keep either Yelan or Citlali, but you have to drop one for Escoffier. If you keep Citlali, Furina with tenacity and Citlali with cinder city is better.

Shahadem2026-01-27 07:53

Where's Escoffier?

Adventurous-Day-67382026-01-27 07:59

I'm actually curious to know whether escoffier-less skirk is more dps than on-field yelan with escoffier.
Either way, Furina desperately needs a healer, maybe charlotte or some other cryo/hydro healer.

LadyNova012026-01-27 09:15

For my Skirk team I run her with Yelan, Furina and Escoffier(I don't have Shenhe)

Tripdrakony2026-01-27 15:45

No Escoffier and no healer for Furina (which Escoffier would take care off) so no, not the correct setup.

annjjbns2026-01-27 19:09

im way too broke for escoffier so anyone that can replace her?

TaiAnej2026-01-27 20:34

Skirk is sadly a lot worse without Escoffier as they're made to be played together, so no replacement will come close. But if you can't get her, the best option for you is to use this team, except replace Citlali with Charlotte. You need a healer for Furina or you're wasting most of her value.

smallbrekfast2026-01-27 22:52

Sadly shes probably your best bet...other comments have done the diligence of explaining better comps, im just here to say escoffier reruns during varkas patch!
