After the equipping character creates a Shield, they gain "Pathfinder's Light" for 20s: Increases your active party member's DMG by 10% for every 1,000 ATK the equipping character has, up to a maximum of 26%. While Pathfinder's Light is in effect, and when your active party member hits a nearby opponent or opens a chest outside of combat, they will also gain "Guide's Contentment": Restores 14 Elemental Energy to the equipping character. The aforementioned effect can trigger once every 16s and can be triggered even when the equipping character is off-field.
Hexerei: Secret Rite: When there are off-field Hexerei characters in your party, they will also gain 50% of the DMG increase from Pathfinder's Light.
Genshin Nicole Normal Attacks - Allegoria
Normal Attack Proclaims a decree in the primordial tongue and performs up to 3 attacks that deal Pyro DMG.
Charged Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to deal AoE Pyro DMG to opponents in front of her after a short casting time.
Plunging Attack Nicole plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Also deals AoE Pyro DMG upon impact with the ground.
With her catalyst, Nicole unleashes normal attacks, dealing pyro damage to the enemies. As a support, her normal attack has minimal impact on her kit.
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.
Nicole's Elemental Skill is her primary means of applying buffs to her teammates. First, she generates a shield, then she provides a team-wide ATK buff. Both effects scale with Nicole's ATK.
The shield that Nicole provides has 100% uptime.
Genshin Nicole 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 5 times each time Nicole switches to Silent Contemplation mode.
After using her Burst, Nicole performs a coordinated attack against the opponent that persists even when she is off-field. Unlike Xingqiu’s, this attack does not apply Pyro aura!
Genshin Impact Nicole kit - Passive skills
Below are all of Genshin Nicole's passive skills and how they work.
Methexis
Methexis Passive enables Nicole to support hypercarry and on-field DPS units such as Varka. After three seconds, the active character gains 300 ATK. If the active character is a Hexerei unit such as Varka, Fischl, or Lohen, this bonus is granted instantly.
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
Nicole provides an additional 300 ATK via Guidance of Theosis to an active party member just by dealing Elemental damage.
When a nearby active party member deals Elemental DMG, Nicole's Grace of Kenosis effect is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis for 8s.
Nepsis
A great passive skill for exploration.
Nicole's Charged Attack becomes "Emissarial Guidance" if you have already obtained the current region's Treasure Compass outside of combat in Teyvat. 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 becoming a Hexerei character, she gains the Hexerei: Secret Rite effect allowing her arcane projections to deal higher damage.
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 150% of Nicole's ATK.
Genshin Impact Nicole kit - Constellations
Nicole’s Constellations enhance her supportive capabilities, further strengthening her buffs, utility, and overall team synergy. Here are all of Nicole’s Constellations in Genshin Impact and why they matter.
Constellation 1. "Do Not Be Afraid, Child Who Is Loved"
C1 allows her to spawn additional Arcane Projection, which increases her personal damage.
When the party's current active character hits an opponent, an additional special "Arcane Projection: Unity" will be summoned to perform a Coordinated Attack against the opponent, dealing AoE Elemental DMG of the character's corresponding Elemental Type at 600% of their ATK. This DMG will be considered as having been dealt by the corresponding character. This effect can trigger once every 6s.
Constellation 2. "I Will Guide You and Show You the Path You Should Tread"
A massive enhancement to Nicole’s supportive capabilities, this allows her to provide stronger ATK buffs while also reducing enemies’ elemental resistance to match the active character’s element.
In addition, Nicole grants a shield to all active party members, similar to Zhongli’s C2 effect.
Enhances the effects of the Elemental Skill Revelation: Uncreated Light: Grace of Kenosis increases ATK by an additional 240 (which does not count toward this effect's ATK Bonus limit), while Guidance of Theosis decreases nearby opponents' Elemental RES against the corresponding character's Elemental Type by 20%. (Effect does not stack for the same element.) Additionally, when Nicole unleashes her Elemental Skill Revelation: Uncreated Light, nearby active party members will also gain a Shield of Blazing Light.
Constellation 3. "A Lamp by Your Side, A Light to Shine the Way"
Increases the damage, shield and ATK buff of Nicole's elemental skill.
Increases the Level of Revelation: Uncreated Light by 3. The highest Level that can be reached is 15.
Constellation 4. "Whether Left or Right, No Matter Which Way You Turn"
Upgrading to Guidance of Theosis allows nearby party members to gain Pathfinder’s Blessing, increasing the damage they deal with Normal Attacks, Charged Attacks, Plunging Attacks, Skills, and Bursts based on a portion of Nicole's ATK.
When nearby party members have their Grace of Kenosis upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, Nicole also bestows them with the Pathfinder's Blessing effect for 20s. Each character can gain this effect once every 17s. 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 the same time, the number of times Pathfinder's Blessing takes effect is based on the number of enemies hit. Each character's Pathfinder's Blessing is counted independently.
Constellation 5. "You Will Hear My Voice Beside You"
Increases the damage dealt by Arcane projections.
Increases the Level of Revelation: Ladder of Divine Ascent by 3. The highest Level that can be reached is 15.
Constellation 6. "This Is the Path, Walk It Without Delay"
When Nicole’s Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, all nearby party members receive the upgrade permanently, and their damage ignores 40% of enemy DEF.
When Nicole's Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, all nearby party members' Grace of Kenosis will also be upgraded to Guidance of Theosis. Once upgraded, Guidance of Theosis will no longer revert to Grace of Kenosis. Additionally, DMG dealt by characters with Guidance of Theosis will ignore 40% of opponents' DEF.
