Genshin Impact 3.8 will see a rerun of Sangonomiya Kokomi in the second half of the 3.8 update. Kokomi has a unique kit with a negative crit rate as her passive talent, but that does not stop the five-star hydro catalyst from dealing decent damage with the right build.
Kokomi is a five-star Support character who boasts excellent healing abilities and sub-DPS potential in recent Spiral Abyss teams. Despite the initial backlash, players now use Kokomi in a lot of Bloom and Hyperbloom teams in the Spiral Abyss.
Players hoping for Kokomi in her rerun banner will want to farm her ascension materials, artifacts, and weapons.
Genshin Impact: Kokomi ascension materials, builds, weapons, and more
Travelers will need to farm Varunada Lazurite Gems, Dew of Repudiation, Sango Pearl, and Spectral Drops to ascend Kokomi to level 90. They can farm all of these ascension materials in Inazuma itself.
Players can fight the Hydro Hypostasis found in Suigetsu Pool, Watatsumi Island for Varunada Lazurite, and Dew of Repudiation. To obtain spectral drops, they can fight specters of any element that can be found all across Inazuma.
Players can consult the table below for the details of Kokomi's ascension materials required at various levels.
Players can build either a support Kokomi that is more useful in Vape teams or a DPS Kokomi which becomes the on-field Hydro applicator for Electro-charged or Bloom teams.
A support Kokomi focuses on 100% uptime of her Elemental Skills that constantly apply Hhydro to the opponents. For a support build, players can go for a four-piece set of the Tenacity of Milelith that increases HP by 20% and buffs team ATK by 20%.
They could also opt for a four-piece set of Maiden Beloved that increases healing effectiveness by 15% and using elemental skill or burst will increase healing received by all party members by 20% for 10s.
Regarding weapon choices, players can go for the following:
- Everlasting Moonglow
- Prototype Amber
- Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers
- Sacrificial Fragments
- Oathsworn Eye
DPS Kokomi focuses on being an on-field damage dealer while healing as well as applying hydro elements to enemies. This DPS build is highly recommended for electro-charged teams where Kokomi will constantly deal hydro damage to opponents.
For a DPS build, it is advised to go for a four-piece set of Ocean-Hued Clam. The two-piece grants a 15% healing bonus and the four-piece set bonus converts the amount of total healing done into raw damage on enemies.
Regarding weapon choices for Kokomi in Genshin Impact, players can go for the following:
- Everlasting Moonglow
- Prototype Amber
- Hakushin Ring
- Sacrificial Fragments
- Oathsworn Eye
With the rise of corrosion and anti-shield enemies in Genshin Impact, more and more people will switch to Kokomi. Hopefully, her rerun banner will perform better than the first banner, now that the community has realized her true potential in Genshin Impact.
