Player Mistakes
Back to All Characters
Kachina emerges as a versatile Geo sub-DPS character with the release of the Natlan region inGenshin Impact, offering players a new option to enhance their Geo-based teams. She excels when paired with other Geo DPS characters, providing strong off-field damage and unique synergies that make her a viable F2P alternative to established Geo sub-DPS units like Chiori or Albedo. However, what sets Kachina apart is her ability to complement these characters rather than merely replace them, making her a flexible choice in Geo-centric team compositions.
Kachina’s potential shines brightest when equipped with the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City inGenshin Impact, a powerful artifact set that significantly boosts Elemental Damage in teams focused on reactions related to the elemental reactions applicable by the equipping character. While this set is tailored to Natlan characters, Kachina can effectively leverage its buffs to enhance Geo reactions, making her a key player in teams built around Elemental Resonance and Crystallize reaction specifically. This allows her to seamlessly integrate into Geo teams, providing consistent damage and bolstering the overall strength of the group.
Kachina + Navia + Xiangling + Bennett
A team composition of Kachina, Navia, Bennett, and Xiangling offers a strong, a relatively F2P-friendly setup that maximizes the synergy between Geo and Pyro elements while providing robust support forNavia as the primary DPS. In this lineup, Kachina serves as an essential sub-DPS and support unit, generating plentiful Crystallize shields that not only boost Navia’s survivability but also enable her to deal consistent damage. As Kachina continuously applies Geo, Crystallize reactions with Xiangling’s Pyro application ensures a steady supply of Crystallize shards. Furthermore, Bennett and Xiangling add to this composition by offering enabling Pyro Resonance alongside Geo Resoance, which increases the team’s overall ATK, primarly enhancing Navia’s DPS potential. Bennett’s Elemental Burst also provides a substantial ATK buff and healing, keeping the team healthy and amplifying Navia’s damage output even further. Neverthless it’s worth noting that the team’s energy requirement is quite high, as both Bennett, and Xiangling need to leverage their Elemental Burst as often as possible.
For players with access to more premium characters, Furina and Sigewinne can replace Bennett and Xiangling, respectively. Furina provides additional Hydro application and buffs, which can help players have easier time with creating more Crystallize shards in an AoE scale. Sigewinne’s kit also help with Hydro application, and primarily with healing.
Team Roles
Kachina + Itto + Albedo + Zhongli
This mono Geo team composition which includes, Kachina, Itto, Albedo, and Zhongli forms a powerful synergy that capitalizes on the strengths of the Geo element. It is worth noting that however, in a mono Geo team, Kachina artifact’s Elemental DMG Bonus effect from the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City becomes harder to trigger unless enemies naturally apply elements on themselves. Unlike the above team composition however, the energy requirement is quite low, allowing team to have a more seamless rotation.In this team, Itto serves as the main damage dealer, leveraging his high burst damage potential,while Albedo contributes consistentoff-field damage with his Elemental Skill, providing additional Geo constructs to trigger Crystallize reactions if possible. Zhongli, meanwhile, with his strong shield, which greatly enhances the team’s survivability while providing debuffs for enemies.
For players looking for alternative options,Zhongli can be replacedby Gorou, who provides excellent Geo buffs and further boosts Itto’s DPS, especially in Geo-heavy teams and can heal the party with his C6. Albedo can be swapped out for Chiori if players prefer a different Geo sub-DPS that offers a more direct approach to damage dealing. However, the team’s overall synergy remains strong, making this mono Geo composition highly effective in both offense and defense.
Kachina + Noelle + Gorou + Yun Jin
The team composition of Kachina, Noelle, Gorou, and Yun Jin is a highly F2P-friendly setup that allows players to maximize the potential of their Geo characters without relying on any 5-star units. The team composition and function is quite similar to Itto’s with it’s focus on a mono-element setting. In this team, Noelle serves as the primary DPS (and healer), benefiting from the powerful support provided by Kachina, Gorou, and Yun Jin. Kachina acts as a sub-DPS and support, contributing extra damage. Gorou is crucial for boosting Noelle’s performance, offering DEF and Geo DMG buffs that directly enhance her DEF-scaling attacks. Yun Jin complements this by increasing Noelle’s normal attack damage, making her more effective during her Elemental Burst.
This composition is perfect for players seeking a Geo team that is both effective and easy to assemble without needing any 5-star characters while providing a solid foundation forNoelle to shine as a DPS, making it an excellent choice for F2P players looking to build a competitive Geo team. Although this team may not reach the damage output of a team led by Itto, it remains a strong and accessible option, particularly when all characters are well-invested in.
