Genshin Impact: Kokomi Build Guide

Upon her release, Genshin Impact Kokomi was merely a 5-star Barbara since her damage output is not significant enough to be viable as a DPS. However, after the release of Ocean-Hued Clam artifact set, Kokomi’s popularity rose, and she became one of the most popular characters in the game.

Ocean-Hued Clam allows Kokomi to handle both the role of healer and DPS at the same time, and this is the most optimal build for her. However, Kokomi build can also be designed so that she fulfill other duties, like buffer or Elemental Reaction trigger. Therefore, players have to ensure their Kokomi build in Genshin Impact matches her role.

Kokomi Build – Best Weapon

Since she can take multiple roles, Kokomi build in Genshin Impact should be adjusted to the part they wish Kokomi to take. Here’s a quick overview of her weapon options:

DPS

Everlasting Moonglow: The best-in-slot weapon for DPS Kokomi.
Prototype Amber: F2P Catalyst that enhances HP and her healing.
Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers: 3-star Catalyst with HP sub-stat.
Hakushin Ring: Forgeable Catalyst that can increase Hydro and Electro DMG in Electro-Charged team.

Healer or Buffer

Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers: Great to give 48% ATK to the main DPS.
Hakushin Ring: Only viable to enhance Electro DMG Bonus in Electro-Charged team.
Sacrificial Fragments: Good to reset Skill cooldown. This way, players can minimize using her Burst to refresh the Jellyfish.

Bloom Trigger

A Thousand Floating Dreams: Nahida best weapon in Genshin Impact; enhances Elemental Mastery for better Bloom DMG.
Sacrificial Fragments: Other than Elemental Mastery sub-stat, resetting Skill cooldown means players can further rely on her Skill to trigger Bloom.
Magic Guide: 3-star Catalyst with Elemental Mastery sub-stat. Its passive also enhances damage against opponents affected by Hydro by 24%.

Kokomi Build – Best Artifact

Just like her weapon, the artifact for Kokomi build in Genshin Impact also heavily depends on her role.

DPS

4-Ocean-Hued Clam: The best option for DPS Kokomi as it allows her to deal large Hydro and Physical DMG at the same time.
4-Heart of Depth: Only enhances Kokomi’s Hydro DMG, but still acceptable if players don’t have an Ocean-Hued Clam set. The damage output is far lower, but the farming value of the domain is higher than OHC as Blizzard Strayer and Heart of Depth are more widely used than OHC and Husk of Opulent Dreams.

Healer or Buffer

4-Tenacity of the Millelith: Great source of damage buff, especially if players can continuously refresh her Skill’s duration.
4-Ocean-Hued Clam: Great for both healing and damage.
4-Maiden Beloved: Dedicated set for healing only.

Bloom Trigger

4-Flower of Paradise Lost: Artifact set specifically made for Dendro Core reactions.
4-Gilded Dreams: Has better farming value than Flower of Paradise Lost as Gilded Dreams is amazing for many characters.
2-EM +80 + 2-EM +80: Set mix for players who don’t own a four-piece set.

Kokomi Talent Priority In Genshin Impact

Kokomi talent priority in Genshin Impact would be Elemental Burst > Elemental Skill > Normal Attack. However, if Kokomi is only a healer support, then Burst and Normal Attack can be ignored.
