Nicole’s kit

Elemental Skill

Revelation: Uncreated Light

Recreates a fleeting glimpse of an age long past, when the angels acted on the authority of the heavens, bestowing the Grace of Kenosis effect on nearby party members. This increases their ATK and deals AoE Pyro DMG, as well as creates a Shield of Blazing Light. The Shield of Blazing Light's DMG Absorption is based on Nicole's ATK, and it will absorb Pyro DMG at 250% effectiveness.

Elemental Burst

Revelation: Ladder of Divine Ascent

As Nicole weaves the path of anchored fate with golden threads of light, she deals AoE Pyro DMG and switches to Silent Contemplation mode. In this mode, when nearby active party members hit an opponent, an Arcane Projection is summoned to perform a Coordinated Attack against the opponent, dealing AoE Elemental DMG of the character's corresponding Elemental Type. This DMG scales based on the corresponding character's ATK and will be considered as having been dealt by them. This effect can occur once every 3s, and can be triggered up to 4 times each time Nicole switches to Silent Contemplation mode. It is worth noting that Hexerei characters' Arcane Projections appear to differ somehow in appearance from the others...

Passive Talents

  • Methexis

    For 20s after unleashing the Elemental Skill Revelation: Uncreated Light, Nicole will continuously "observe" the other current active party members. After the observed character has remained on the field for 3s, their Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, increasing their ATK by an additional 300. If the observed character is a Hexerei character, Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis straight away. When characters other than Nicole who have Guidance of Theosis leave the field, their effect reverts to Grace of Kenosis.

  • Philokalia

    When Elemental DMG from nearby active party members hits an opponent, Nicole's own Grace of Kenosis effect is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis for 8s.

  • Nepsis

    When you are in Teyvat and not in combat, Nicole's Charged Attack becomes "Emissarial Guidance" if you have already obtained the current region's Treasure Compass. Emissarial Guidance: Calls upon nearby Seelie to show the way, triggering an effect similar to the region's Treasure Compass. This effect has a cooldown time of 5 seconds and does not work in Domains, Trounce Domains, and the Spiral Abyss.

  • Witch's Eve Rite: Light in the Darkness

    After completing Witch's Homework: The Role of a Guide...?, Nicole becomes a Hexerei character. When the party includes at least 2 Hexerei characters, you gain the Hexerei: Secret Rite effect, which enhances Hexerei characters. Hexerei: Secret Rite Increases the DMG dealt by Hexerei characters' Arcane Projections by 300% of Nicole's ATK.

"Do Not Be Afraid, Child Who Is Loved"

This DMG will be considered as having been dealt by the corresponding character. This effect can trigger once every 6s.

"Whether Left or Right, No Matter Which Way You Turn"

Grants a flat damage increase to party members' attacks based on Nicole's ATK for up to 8 hits when upgrading to Guidance of Theosis.

When nearby party members have their Grace of Kenosis upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, Nicole also bestows upon them the Pathfinder's Blessing effect for 20s. Each character can gain this effect once every 16s. The Normal Attack, Charged Attack, Plunging Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst DMG of characters with Pathfinder's Blessing is increased by 70% of Nicole's ATK. This effect will be removed once it has taken effect 8 times or when its duration is over. When multiple opponents are hit at once, instances of Pathfinder's Blessing are consumed equal to the number of opponents hit. Each character's Pathfinder's Blessing is counted independently.
