Release6.5

Nod-Krai's cheerful naturalist fights alongside her companion Lumi. As a Moonsign character, she turns Hydro Crystallize into Lunar-Crystallize, shreds Geo RES and sends Lumi to pound enemies with direct Lunar-Crystallize DMG, all from off-field. Add a strong team heal on her Burst and she becomes Zibai's best fourth teammate.

Stat targets

  • DEF 2,000+ (caps her +14% Lunar-Crystallize Base DMG bonus); after that, DEF and CRIT are about equal
  • CRIT ratio around 1:2
  • Energy Recharge 100% if you Burst every other rotation; 180–200% to Burst every rotation (145–165% with two Favonius procs)
  • EM 100–200 is a nice bonus

Talent priority

Normal Attack

An Energy Recharge sands is only worth it in teams that need constant healing (Furina teams, Zibai teams without another healer). Direct Lunar-Crystallize DMG scales with DEF, EM, reaction bonuses and CRIT, and ignores enemy DEF.

Teams

Recommended teams

Zibai Lunar-Crystallize

The best Lunar-Crystallize team: Columbina provides Hydro and Lunar buffs, Illuga amplifies Zibai's Geo hits, and Linnea shreds RES, deals damage and heals.

Zibai with Aino

Without Columbina, the 4-star Aino takes over Hydro application: around 80% of the premium team with C6 Illuga.

Navia Lunar-Crystallize

Navia keeps her own build and takes advantage of Linnea's Geo RES shred; here Linnea Bursts often to sustain Furina's HP drain.

Guide

How to play

How she works

  • Moonsign Benediction: Habitat Survey converts Hydro Crystallize into Lunar-Crystallize and raises its Base DMG by 0.7% per 100 of Linnea's DEF (up to +14% at 2,000 DEF). She also raises the party's Moonsign by one level. Each Lunar-Crystallize creates a Moondrift (which counts as a Geo Construct), and every third trigger launches a Moondrift Harmony.
  • Countermeasure: Lumi's Battle Cry! (Skill), tapped once: Lumi fights in Super Power Form, dealing AoE Geo DMG every 2s; with a Moondrift nearby, every other attack becomes direct Lunar-Crystallize DMG. This is most of her damage.
  • Tapped repeatedly: Linnea feeds Lumi gemstones until she strikes once in Ultimate Power Form (Million Ton Crush), a single huge Lunar-Crystallize nuke worth about four of her regular Lunar-Crystallize hits. Lumi then drops to the much weaker Standard Power Form.
  • Memo: Survival Guide in Extreme Conditions (Burst) heals the party, keeps healing the active character and refreshes Lumi's duration in her current form.
  • Field Observation Notes shreds Geo RES by 15% near Lumi (30% at Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam), and Universal Naturalist Archive gives Moonsign on-field characters EM equal to 5% of her DEF.

Rotation

  1. Most of the time: tap E and swap out immediately.
  2. Use Q when the team needs healing, or every other rotation.
  3. Save the multi-tap Skill for burst windows: instantly breaking a boss phase, clearing a wave, or finishing a fight while your carry's buffs are active.

Strengths

  • Strong team-wide healing on a short field time
  • Up to 30% Geo RES shred and a +14% Lunar-Crystallize Base DMG bonus
  • Flexible: steady off-field damage or a front-loaded nuke on demand
  • Her F2P bow (Slingshot) is not far behind her signature

Weaknesses

  • Often suboptimal outside Lunar-Crystallize teams
  • Not a huge upgrade over a C6 Gorou in pure damage
  • After her nuke, Lumi's weaker form lowers Moondrift Harmony uptime
