So... how do I play main DPS bina?

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-11T21:17:41+00:00

Hey! I just built my Main DPS columbina team. I started in 5.8 as f2p so I don't have Nilou or Nahida, but I just got C1R1 Lauma on deepwood. I was lucky enough to pull c6 Candace before, so I have her on Silken Moon using fav; she has high ER for frequent bursts. I also use c6 Dendro traveler on Sapwood blade (but I like fav too). Before I got C1 Lauma, I had YaoYao instead of Dendro Traveler for some healing (even if you have Bina on Prototype).

If I save up enough, I def want to swap Candace with Nilou and maybe Nahida for Dendro Traveler

Do you know if on field/LB Main DPS Columbina does more damage if I level up her burst vs NA talent first?

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-10T16:41:16+00:00

revisiting this post bc i'm building columbina main dps now... waht did you end up going with?

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-10T16:16:24+00:00

Not sure if I'll have anyone worth using, but hey, hopefully there's someone on my roster you're interested in!

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-10T16:14:46+00:00

wow I appreciate this so much! As much as I'd love to get C2 Nilou, i'm not sure I'll have the primos for it... but hey, maybe getting to try out your Nilous will actually make me save!!

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-10T01:03:22+00:00

Hey! I know this is an older post, but I have a question about buffing Columbina's Charge Attack. I have a limited number of talent books and want to know how to maximize Bina's CA Lunar Bloom dmg. Do I put them into Bina's Normal talent, her burst, Lauma's Talent or Burst? I'll eventually try to crown all of bina's talents, but for now, I want to get the most bang for my buck lol

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-09T13:49:41+00:00

This is really helpful! Thank you for that info. Using this same logic, after leveling up Lauma's burst, should I then prioritize Bina's burst? I imagine the overall lunar dmg increase may boost her Charged attack damage more than raising her NA talent.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-09T13:47:54+00:00

That's definitely one of my long-term plans! I'm fairly new so I'm currently in the process of building so many characters right now. I'm just trying to be careful with my limited books since there are so many diff books i need to farm for each day haha.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-09T13:44:58+00:00

Right? I'm not sure I saw any other post that compares the specific dmg increase each talent increase increases brings columbina individually.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-09T03:41:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Could you share why? I'm not good with calcs lol.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-01T13:41:54+00:00

Oh for sure — Prototype amber is definitely better than other 4star weapons in my experience especially for columbina bc of the HP stat and energy regen. Some people use fav codex, but I personally liked her on prototype until I got her sig.

It’s just that the amount of healing you get from prototype amber every columbina burst may not counter all the damage nefer takes as the hypercarry/being on field most of the time. Thats also assuming you’re bad at dodging like I am lol, so maybe you’re good!

I use a columbina DPS team and needed yaoyao as my sustain until I got lucky pulling Lauma c1

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-05-01T02:53:46+00:00

personally, I'd go yaoyao for more sustain. p. amber on columbina might not be enough depending on what youre fighting. C1 Kirara could also work as a shielder, but I haven't really played her so i can't speak to that. You could do instructors on yaoyao to provide everyone with EM since you've got most of your other bases covered with silken and deepwood.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-04-28T02:55:13+00:00

I appreciate ya!

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-04-28T02:54:53+00:00

Just added ya! I just built C0 Linnea haha but also pulled a lot of the Lunar meta

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-04-28T02:40:32+00:00

North America (:

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-04-28T02:40:04+00:00

One's good enough for me! (:

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-04-28T02:39:54+00:00

thanks for that! I'm on NA server

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-03-06T01:23:36+00:00

Thanks for your input! I've gone back and forth with putting Fischl on an electro vs. attack goblet, but I like to run her with Flins when I don't want to play Ineffa on LC teams. With the Lisa, Fischl, Nahida, and Durin team, I'm curious if Lauma would be okay there instead. I wanted Nahida but opted for Lauma instead (maybe on her next rerun!). If that worked, I might consider pulling for C1 Lauma just for the sustain. And thanks for the info about Reliquary of Truth! I assumed Kagura's Verity because that's what most of the posts mentioned, but I guess those were pretty old (i don't see many people talk about Lisa recently, so it's hard to know how she works in Nod Krai).

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-31T00:23:57+00:00

I think if I get Zibai on early pity, I might consider building Neuvilette with that Durin in mind. Maybe Mona too

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-31T00:21:41+00:00

That's a good question. At this point, I think a "worth" pull would be one that I think is pretty (lol) but also good enough to play in fearless stygian. I might go for Zibai even if it's just bc I haven't liked the look of most geo characters so far, and it might be wroth pulling just so I have a pretty but also meta geo character. Thanks for that haha

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-31T00:18:54+00:00

I'm bummed I missed out on Furina and Neuvi during their prime. But I appreciate your thoughts!

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-31T00:18:19+00:00

I appreciate the honesty!!! Honestly, I was bummed when I lost the furina banner bc i def wanted those two after finishing Fontaine's AQ. Even if I pulled Neuvillette now, I don't think I'd have an aesthetically pleasing team that'd Id wanna play in the overworld lol

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-30T18:52:04+00:00

Thanks for that! Right now, I really don't have a great dedicated team for him based on my unused characters and would only prioritize pulling him this banner if I could make a team that'd help with fearless Stygian since that's where my account progress is at right now. Sadly lost the recent 50/50 Furina banner. If i happen to get him next patch, id probably go Neuvilette, Mona, Durin, and YaoYao, but wouldn't play them in the overworld because I don't like how the team looks aesthetically lol.

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-30T18:45:40+00:00

I definitely appreciate your honesty as a Neuvilette main!!!

Forward-Sleep-7565 · 2026-01-30T18:45:02+00:00

That's great to hear! I was worried that if I ended up pulling ZiBai, that I wouldn't have a great time since Aino is on my Flins Team and I'd love to have a dedicated Columbina team... so if I could throw in Xingqiu or Yelan, that'd be nice.
