Role: Hydro Healer / On-Field Enabler / Off-Field Support
Best For: Teams that need reliable healing, consistent Hydro application, and a flexible character who can work both on-field and off-field.
1. Recommended Artifacts
4-Piece Ocean-Hued Clam — The recommended set when Kokomi is used on-field. Her strong healing easily activates the set’s additional damage while her Burst allows her to heal the entire team through Normal Attacks.
Alternative: 4-Piece Tenacity of the Millelith — A strong support option when Kokomi mainly uses her Elemental Skill from off-field. Her Bake-Kurage can maintain the set’s ATK buff while simultaneously providing healing and Hydro application.
2. Recommended Weapons
Premium: Everlasting Moonglow
Alternatives: Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers, Hakushin Ring
F2P: Prototype Amber
Everlasting Moonglow is Kokomi’s signature weapon and improves her healing and personal damage, but Prototype Amber is an excellent craftable alternative. For a pure support build, Thrilling Tales can instead provide a powerful ATK buff to the next character entering the field.
3. Recommended Teams
Furina: Kokomi + Furina + Fischl + Kazuha
Hyperbloom: Kokomi + Nahida + Raiden Shogun + Yelan
Freeze: Ayaka + Shenhe + Kokomi + Kazuha
Kokomi’s combination of healing and Hydro application makes her useful across many reaction teams. Her Elemental Skill can apply Hydro from off-field, while using her Burst allows her to become the team’s on-field driver and continuously heal the party.
4. Main Stats / Substats
Sands: HP% or Energy Recharge
Goblet: Hydro DMG Bonus or HP%
Circlet: Healing Bonus
Substats: Energy Recharge until requirement > HP% > Flat HP
Kokomi does not need the usual CRIT-focused build because her passive greatly reduces her CRIT Rate. Instead, prioritize enough Energy Recharge for your intended rotation, followed by HP and Healing Bonus to improve both her healing and HP-scaling damage.
5. Playstyle
Use Kokomi’s Elemental Skill to summon Bake-Kurage, which periodically heals nearby characters and applies Hydro to enemies. If Kokomi is being used only as an off-field support, she can often perform her job without spending much time on-field.
For an on-field build, activate her Burst while Bake-Kurage is active to refresh its duration, then use Normal Attacks to deal Hydro damage and continuously heal the entire party. This makes Kokomi especially comfortable in teams that benefit from frequent team-wide healing.
6. F2P
Kokomi is very F2P-friendly because Prototype Amber is craftable and provides HP%, Energy restoration, and additional healing. Her main utility as a healer and Hydro applicator does not depend on owning her signature weapon.
Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers is another extremely accessible option for support Kokomi and can provide a large ATK buff to an appropriate teammate. This lets her contribute substantial team utility even with inexpensive equipment.
StoryBillion Tip: Decide whether Kokomi will mainly stay off-field or fight on-field before building her. Off-field Kokomi can focus on Hydro application and team buffs, while on-field Kokomi benefits much more from Ocean-Hued Clam and regular Burst usage.
