Geo
Polearm
Kachina
Mottled Gold Yet Unsmelted
A shy but determined young warrior of the Children of Echoes, Kachina fights alongside Turbo Twirly, a drill disguised as a spinning top. Her Skill leaves Twirly on the field to slam enemies with DEF-scaling Geo damage while she swaps out, and as a Natlan character she unlocks the full power of Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City. She is a free, flexible off-field Geo unit for Navia, Chiori and mono-Geo teams.

Main stats
Substat priority
Stat targets
- DEF 2,000+
- CRIT Rate 50–60% and CRIT DMG 100–120%+
- Energy Recharge only if you want her Burst every rotation: about 130–150% (Game8) to 180–220% (KQM, C1) with another Geo unit, 200–280% as the only Geo at C0 depending on rotation length
Talent priority
Turbo Twirly is her Skill, so level it first. Her character level also matters because all her damage scales with DEF. Most rotations can skip her Burst at C0; C2 makes it much more useful.
Recommended teams
Navia Crystallize
Kachina adds off-field Geo, holds Scroll to buff Geo and Pyro, and each Crystallize she triggers creates shards that power up Navia's Skill.
Chiori double doll
Turbo Twirly lets Chiori summon her second doll, and Furina buffs everyone's damage.
Mono Geo
Geo Resonance and lower Energy needs; Kachina can hold Husk of Opulent Dreams here.
How to play
How she works
- Go, Go Turbo Twirly! (Skill) summons Turbo Twirly and gives her 60 Nightsoul points and Nightsoul's Blessing. Left on its own, Twirly slams the ground at intervals for AoE Geo DMG based on her DEF. Hold the Skill to ride it instead (for exploration or on-field play).
- Twirly counts as a Geo Construct: it lets Chiori summon her second doll.
- Time to Get Serious! (Burst) deals Geo DMG and creates a Turbo Drill Field that enlarges Twirly's attacks.
- Mountain Echoes: +20% Geo DMG for 12s after a teammate's Nightsoul Burst. The Weight of Stone: Twirly deals extra DMG equal to 20% of her DEF.
Rotation
- E (tap) to drop Turbo Twirly, plus Q if it is ready.
- Swap out right away: Twirly keeps attacking until her Nightsoul points run out.
In non-Geo teams, her Crystallize triggers the 4-piece Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City: the whole party gains up to 40% DMG Bonus for Geo and the element she crystallized.
Strengths
- Simple, long-lasting off-field Geo damage from a single tap
- Natlan character: holds the 4-piece Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City at full power
- Turbo Twirly counts as a Geo Construct for Chiori
- 4-star with easy-to-get constellations; her C6 is common
Weaknesses
- Modest personal damage compared with newer sub-DPS
- Her Burst is expensive (70 Energy) and hard to use every rotation
- Crystallize shields and shards are her only defensive contribution
- Newer Geo supports such as Xilonen and Illuga bring more team utility
Notable dupes · Constellation
Collects Crystallize shards when mounting and restores 3 Energy from shards or Lunar-Crystallize (once every 5s): a real cut to her Energy Recharge needs.
Her Burst restores 20 Nightsoul points and summons Twirly if it is gone: much better uptime.
Up to +20% DEF for the active character inside the Turbo Drill Field.
Extra Geo DMG whenever the active character's shield breaks or is replaced (once every 5s).
