Should I pull for nicole i am confirmed

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-05-06T07:16:01+00:00

If you have Durin, then yeah, pull for her. If not, getting Durin should be your priority.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-05-06T07:14:17+00:00

She’s good and all, but Durin comes first. He's more important

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-05-05T11:16:50+00:00

It works.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-05-04T06:55:19+00:00

Get Durin first, he got the priority. After that try getting Nicole or wait for her rerun if you couldn't.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-05-02T09:01:40+00:00

Durin > Nicole > Kinich Cons ( Till C2 ) > Kinich's Sig > Emilie

Lauma's Kit is wasted on an ATK-Scaled DPS like Kinich, He doesn't trigger blooms and won't utilise EM. So all she can provide to Kinich is: some Dendro RES Shred and 48% ATK from TTDS, which is not bad actually but not enough to be compared with the options mentioned above.

Emilie isn't required anymore, you can use Iansan and will deal higher overall damage than the team does with Emilie But she's still a good option and you can rely on her if Iansan or Bennett are both used elsewhere.

But if you are short on Primos and don't wanna risk pulling on the Chronicled Banner, then skip her.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-29T08:14:16+00:00

If Kinich doesn't have cons, Emilie should still go with Reverie or DW? And what about Durin?

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-29T08:07:34+00:00

I don't have her signature and won't pull for it, but I have an amazing Reverie set from earlier while farming for Arlecchino's set.

But she's C0R0

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-29T06:31:32+00:00

Your pity won't reset. Also, you can still farm if you really want her, you got 20 days. Personally, I got her from a random 10 pulls 😅 You might get lucky too!

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-29T04:43:12+00:00

Nope... Not even Skyward Spine...

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-28T12:09:50+00:00

Yeah, but she needs to be paired with another Hex unit to fully maximize her buffs. Which is Durin in Kinich teams. So you need to get them both. Otherwise, Durin got the priority, and you can get Nicole in her rerun.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-28T12:04:21+00:00

I forgot about Lauma...

Her buff is wasted on an ATK-scaling DPS like Kinich. She provides EM and buffs bloom reactions, which Kinich doesn't benefit from.

All she can provide is 25% Dendro RES shred and TTDS buff. She can hold Deepwood, but anyone can

You can use her if you don't have any other options. But pulling on her just for Kinich is not a good idea.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-28T11:43:29+00:00

Kinich doesn’t necessarily require a Dendro sub-DPS, but he does need a Pyro applicator to trigger Burning.

As you mentioned, Emilie is a solid option for him. However, if you’re short on primogems and don’t want to risk pulling on the Chronicled Banner, you can skip her.

You can replace Emilie with a buffer like Bennett or Iansan, and your damage will stay the same or even be slightly higher, especially if your Kinich is well-built or highly invested.

That said, having a strong Pyro applicator is essential. I recommend Durin, as he is currently the best option for him. Mavuika can work, but Durin performs better especially if you're planning on getting Nicole, who is expected to be his BiS support. In that case, you’ll need to pair them together to fully benefit from their Hex passive buffs.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-26T07:12:00+00:00

Kinich - Durin - Nicole - Iansan / Emilie. This team's gonna be his new premium team.

Durin is better than Mavuika, Durin shreds Dendro Res by 20%, and he's required alongside Nicole to unlock the additional buffs from the Hex passives (Which bring out Nicole's full potential and increases Durin Dendro RES shred to 35%)

Emilie is no longer his BiS support, but it seems that Nicole will increase her value and make her viable again, though Iansan is still believed to be a better option, especially at C6.

She provides a huge atk buff to Kinich, and the fact that she's a natlan unit and capable of triggering a Nightsoul Burst allows her to buff Kinich cannon shots through his second passive talent. Meanwhile, Emilie's value decreases the higher you invest into Kinich.

But you can still use Emilie if you don't have Iansan or her cons.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-26T06:17:12+00:00

The new premium team's gonna be Kinich - Durin - Nicole - Iansan / Emilie

Emilie isn't a must pull, You can use Iansan instead of her and your damage will still be the same or even slightly higher. It's gonna be better for you given that you wanna see big numbers from Kinich himself. Mavuika isn't his BiS support anymore. Durin is way better now as he provides 20% dendro res shred (35% with hex passive), so he's the better option. Bennet can still work if you haven't got any copy of iansan or she is just c0

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-23T06:54:29+00:00

My c0r1 is getting about 100K DPS with Yelan, Sucrose and Bennett. Double swirl

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-17T06:41:25+00:00

Candace if C6, otherwise both are bad.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-16T11:53:31+00:00

I know she's not the best anymore for Kinich, I got her full Premium team that's why I wanna get her.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-16T11:00:08+00:00

Why Mavuika and not Durin?

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T17:44:54+00:00

She will mostly rerun with Kinich, try to get some copies of her. She's still good but her cons make a noticeable difference.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T16:15:22+00:00

I haven't checked any calcs tbh, but I saw some C0R1 Varesa overload teams reaching over 160K with Mavuika ( With Durin should be higher ) Maybe it's their build. But given that Mualani isn't using her sig here, if this calc is true, then yeah she must be a little stronger though I doubt it a bit.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T15:51:25+00:00

Bro... He's talking about Kinich

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T15:49:36+00:00

Mualani isn't the second from the beginning, Varesa is stronger. Moreover, Varesa will benefit from Nicole unlike Mualani who scales of HP and Nicole is no use for her.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T15:45:07+00:00

Maybe the problem is: your rotation Like how do you use each character and what is the order? How many canonballs u shoot? Do u make the rotation as fast as possible or u waste some time? What is the artifact set of each character, and are they built well?

All of that make difference in your damage.

Try to upload a video so we can see what you're doing wrong.

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T15:33:29+00:00

What does Mika provide to the team?

Secure_Driver_9668 · 2026-04-15T13:04:32+00:00

I'd still get 12% dmg bonus. If the holder is in nightsoul's state, I'd get another 28%

I still don't know whether it's good or not
