Spoiler alert for those who have not done the recent quests yet!
>!Since she is the Trilune God now, meaning she has authority over all three moons, and it's said that the three moon sisters and the four shades should be equal in power, then Columbina right now is as strong as Asmoday, Istaroth, Naberius and Ronova combined together!!<
allmistake22026-01-27 21:35
>!To be fair, she likely has less mastery over those abilities than the four of them. She could probably 1v1 a given shade, but I dont think she could win against all of them.!<
Gentlemanor2026-01-27 21:40
>!That's true. Experience obviously goes to Team Shades!<
HorribleDat2026-01-27 23:44
Her profile suggest the lack of mastery might be partly from personal choice:
>!As for everything else, she either didn't want to do it, or she felt that she shouldn't.!<
>!What she loved was the way this world and her home looked now. Changing it at will just because she could, molding its appearance and rules to suit her own whims... She felt that would be wrong!<
Also...
>!She even tried to wake Sandrone up. But that was one of the few things this trilunar power could not accomplish for her.!<
allmistake22026-01-27 23:53
Which is just all the more reason I love her. It speaks to a greater strength to have self restraint.
Alpha06Omega092026-01-28 00:51
Mastery seems to get less and less important as you get to higher tiers, unless your it’s peak perfection. Columbina who has never fought in her life was going head to head vs rerir who spent his whole life fighting and should have amazing battle Iq and strategies. Still ended up on the ground
CrashCalamity2026-01-28 02:37
> on the ground
Correction: Put into the Time Out hole.
Pristine-Pop19672026-01-28 05:52
Her max ascenscion states she holds the threads of fate. Fate is at the tier of Heavenly Principles so I find this declaration surprising.
Vaerlol2026-01-27 21:39
>! Does her power remain that high without the iridescent moon marrow that she gave back to Arlecchino? I'm not a Varka level lore skipper but I'm definitely not a Nicole level lore knower either. !<
Gentlemanor2026-01-27 21:42
>!She literally had the Trilunar authority when she returned while the marrows were still in Dottore's hands.
Basically two Trilune Gods were duking it out, but Dottore had an artificial one, not a real marrow among the three, so he ended up losing!<
Vaerlol2026-01-27 21:44
I feel informed now, thank you
C0mpl3x1ty_12026-01-28 01:11
>!I mean the tipping of the scale could also be the will of a descender on her side too!<
HilariousLion2026-01-27 22:45
This method of describing one's knowledge of lore is inspired.
Vaerlol2026-01-27 22:57
I am but a humble linguist
anonymityenjoyer2026-01-27 23:48
Funny how Varka and Nicole is used in this context lol
Seaglass21212026-01-28 00:02
The marrows are like gnosis. They don’t hold the authorities, rather, they can channel immense power. She doesn’t need them.
Alpha06Omega092026-01-28 00:48
Alice already said moon marrows are a drop in the bucket for her in 6.2, now they are a drop in the ocean lol. Moon marrows don’t do anything for her
Crimson_Raven2026-01-27 23:55
>!However, she does not have the Moon Marrows. The iridescent moon marrow was given into Lauma's safekeeping, while the crimson moon marrow was returned to Arlechinno. I'm unsure how much that matters as she still has the trilunar authority.!<
Alpha06Omega092026-01-28 00:49
Moon marrows don’t do anything for her, Alice already said they are drops in the bucket and that was pre ascension. Now they are a drop in the damm ocean. Too mabye people forgetting Alice’s lines and think moon marrows mattered to her powers at all
Crymsyn_Moon2026-01-27 21:43
Probably. Sort of. >!She redistributed her power as kuuvhaki back over Nod Krai as to not throw the region out of whack without the moon juice. How much she kept is kinda vague, but its definitely enough to rank her high with the heavy hitters.!<
reservedeed2026-01-27 22:57
>!She has the Frostmoon and the remnants of other moons. Nod-krai had her body's kuuvahki, the other sources still remain.!<
EnGardevoir2026-01-28 00:01
archon quest ending spoilers >!Columbina gives the moon marrow to Lauma and the iridescent moon marrow to Arlecchino at the end of the archon quest.!<
reservedeed2026-01-28 00:03
>!do marrows even matter anymore since columbina has the authority now?!<
EnGardevoir2026-01-28 00:07
>!It seems like maybe they do, like for example Columbina wasn't able to free Nefer, Lauma, and Flins from the place Dottore sent them during the story fight to until they broke the trilune machine on his back and took back the iridescent moon, as an example.!<
Alpha06Omega092026-01-28 00:46
Yeh cause they were stuck inside the moon marrow, she need to get it to let them free. Alice already said moon marrows are a drop in the bucket for her, now they are a drop in the ocean lol
LengthyLegato1145142026-01-28 02:43
Was this before or after she >!gave us a 7 element buff?!<
dadofwar932026-01-28 03:32
Before.
LengthyLegato1145142026-01-28 03:39
That's how I remembered it lol
In that case, it's moot, because her >!giving part of her power back to Nod Krai!< is like "multi-billionaire gives out 90% of net worth to charity" moment.
She's still clearly powerful enough to>! lift some "restrictions" the Heavenly Principles set on the world!< for the Traveler, for >!every element!<
So, by direct arithemtic, she's at least 7 Neuvillettes strong currently.
Edit: For obvious reasons, I have to declare that the last part is a joke.
reservedeed2026-01-28 07:04
Then you're telling me she wa also this powerful before she became >!Trilune Goddess? Because she was barely alive during her sacrifice.!<
LengthyLegato1145142026-01-28 07:22
No. Obviously not.
>!The world was still rejecting her, and even at her peak before she joined the Fatui, she had the power of one moon, not three!<
Seaglass21212026-01-28 00:00
Definitely yes. She reassures she won’t disappear since she’s the trilunar goddess. Which already gives her domain over life, death, space, time. There is no maybe in terms of authority and “ranking”. She is if anything comparable to the shades (plural) atp.
Glum_Gain9662026-01-28 10:29
According to her character story about trilunar convergence, she can pretty much do anything she wants, bar reviving sandrone.
CoolGuyBabz2026-01-27 22:58
She probably is but its still kinda hard to imagine her beating prime Zhongli or Ei with the crazy shit they were doing
SomeAwakenedDude2026-01-27 23:38
not when you think about the crazy shit Columbina can do. Literally manipulating space, time, life, death and shi
Gentlemanor2026-01-28 00:08
Columbina stops time, draws funny mustaches on Zhongli and Raiden, unfreezes time and watches them die from shame
Cocoatrice2026-01-27 23:37
I am actually wondering if Zhongli isn't some primordial being, even stronger than Archons. He was a menace to other gods long before before he became Archon himself. Also given that he is so secretive, it could turn out that there is something big about him, that would be a plot twist or something. He can't tell anything due to contract. Quite convenient for the plot, hm? And he is China's avatar, so I wouldn't be surprised at all. What if he is Nibelung or even one of the descenders, maybe something of that kind. Also notice, that Zhongli basically often knows *everything* that happens in the world. Like he had a deal with Rhodeia to not hurt her hydro mimics, he tells Traveler to *record everything*, like he knew about truth of the world, not just fake sky, but more than that. Zhongli is hiding something big, but I can't prove it yet. I recently started to think about it, because hey, who is he, living for thousands of years, before Archon War and before anything else. Isn't it sus? He formed Adepti 3700 years ago. This is loooooooooooong before Archon War and long before Khaneri'ah cataclysm. But he is at least 6000 years old. Archon War was like 2000 years ago. And according to Google, War of Funerary flame was around 6000 years ago. Sus af.
KazakiriKaoru2026-01-28 01:26
The lore about him being born 6000 years ago was from a book right? Zhongli himself says that books tend to embellish a lot from actual history
In_Dreams_Begin2026-01-28 04:46
Just wait until Zhongli pulls his power back (destroying all Mora in the world in the process)
Sproot_bonk2026-01-27 21:21
It’s because you have her w-engine 👀

VladDHell2026-01-28 01:35
Haha I just got astra’s and thought of bina lol
CrazyFanFicFan2026-01-28 09:32
I like that ZZZ went the "minor visual change" way with W-Engines, rather than Arlecchino's whole new weapon.
(Columbina instead has visual changes based on her Constellation. The circle on the back changes with each unlocked Constellation, all the way up to C6.)
JrButton2026-01-27 21:41
"is everyone as unobservant as I am?"
Aggravating-Yak21652026-01-27 21:46
for me her hair looks like feather on how thin it is, like a plastic idk looks so fake
it's not really well rendered
GalacticDeg2026-01-27 22:19
It's kind of weird because it also weirdly splits apart for certain animations, like becoming 2 or 3 strands for a moment, and that throws me off every time I notice it
Seaglass21212026-01-28 00:04
Right? Usually the split is used for easier gameplay movement design and to usually show off the back design since that’s what the player will be looking at mostly. Yet, it doesn’t solve the second issue at all, from the back you’re still looking at a cascade of hair w her signature feathered head piece, yet her entire outfit is hidden.
cochese252026-01-28 08:44
Hoyo has a habit of making sure most of the female characters look like they have fish tails be it with their hair or with their clothes
Yashirai2026-01-28 03:21
Pretty sure looking like feathers is the whole point…. Shes “Columbina”, the name of a type of dove
Aggravating-Yak21652026-01-28 04:24
I imagine so, does not bother me tho. Just a small nitpick
Admrl-kell2026-01-27 22:24
I mean she kinda is the archon of nod-krai so it makes sense
Environmental-Belt492026-01-27 23:57
Well, duh! she uses Pantene Total Damage Care.
gna1492026-01-28 15:00
Pantalone Pro V
Seaglass21212026-01-27 23:58
Yes
Hot-Masterpiece43252026-01-28 01:02
she IS effectively the Lunar Archon so it makes sense considering Ei, Zhongli, Venti, Mavuika, and Nahida have their hair glow when using their abilities.
Beans_Chilli692026-01-28 04:16
Nah I too employed to notice the hair.
Lanky_Candidate_46612026-01-28 08:02
And your manager has told you many times to quit playing with your phone and get back to flipping burgers.
Confident_River_35832026-01-28 06:05
Wait… her hairs actually glows i thought that was just lighting magic.Genshin really keeps surprising me!
FateBreaker922026-01-28 08:25
Nivea. Because she's worth it. ™️
TheJimDim2026-01-28 08:44
Everyone talks about the split hair curse, but I'm genuinely getting sick of the flat hair. How are the characters getting more detailed, but their hair getting more 2-dimensional? I'm starting to regret pulling Flins because of it tbh.
