Introduction — Columbina
Columbina is a 5-Star Hydro Catalyst Character in Genshin Impact. Our Columbina guide covers everything you need to know about Columbina's best builds, including skills, artifacts, team compositions and more. To learn more about Columbina, use the tabs above to switch to our build information for Columbina or her team compositions.
Columbina's Strengths & Weaknesses
Long-lasting AoE Hydro application, applied every 2 seconds for 25 seconds.
Good buffing for Lunar-Reaction focused teams.
Enables all three Lunar-Reactions herself, allowing them to be used even without other Nod Krai 5 stars on the team which gives good team flexibility.
High damage capabilities without needing to be on-field.
Flexibility to be used either off-field or on-field if desired.
Uses 5 different stats well, making Columbina easy to build.
While Columbina doesn't need other Nod-Krai 5 stars on the team to function, not having Ineffa or Lauma would make Lunar-Charged and Lunar-Bloom teams substantially less powerful.
High energy requirements in solo-Hydro teams.
Abilities revolve entirely around Lunar reactions, so she does not perform well outside of Lunar reaction teams.

Columbina's Talents
Normal Attack
Summons Moonlit Tides, performing up to 3 attacks that deal Hydro DMG.
Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to deal AoE Hydro DMG after a short casting time.
If you have at least 1 Verdant Dew, Columbina's Charged Attacks will be replaced with the special Charged Attack Moondew Cleanse, which will not consume Stamina: Consume 1 Verdant Dew to deal 3 instances of AoE Dendro DMG to opponents in front. This DMG is considered Lunar-Bloom DMG.
Plunging Attack
Plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Hydro DMG upon impact with the ground.
Awaken Moonbound Tides, dealing AoE Hydro DMG and summoning Gravity Ripple.
Gravity Ripple will follow the active character on the field, while continuously dealing AoE Hydro DMG to surrounding opponents. While Gravity Ripple is on the field, and nearby party members trigger Lunar reactions or inflict Lunar Reaction DMG, Columbina will accrue a special Gravity. Once Gravity is accumulated to its limit, different types of damage will be dealt to enemies based on the type of Lunar Reaction that has accumulated the most Gravity for Columbina.
Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam
Gravity Ripple inflicts AoE Hydro DMG over a wider area.
Hills and tides unite under the silver light of a pristine new moon. Temporarily transforms the surrounding terrain into Lunar Domain, dealing AoE Hydro DMG.
After unleashing Elemental Skill Eternal Tides, Columbina will summon Gravity Ripple.
Gravity Ripple will follow the current active character on the field, while continuously dealing AoE Hydro DMG to surrounding opponents.
Additionally, while Gravity Ripple is on the field, and nearby party members trigger Lunar reactions or inflict Lunar Reaction DMG, Columbina will gain the New Moon's Omen effect for 2s, continuously accumulating Gravity. 20 Gravity can be accumulated every 2s.
You can have up to 60 Gravity, and it will be removed when the duration of Gravity Ripple ends.
Once Gravity is accumulated to its limit, a special Gravity Interference will be triggered. Different effects will be triggered depending on the Lunar reaction type that has accumulated the most Gravity for Columbina. If the Lunar reaction type that has accumulated the most Gravity for Columbina is:
· Lunar-Charged: Gravity Interference will deal a single instance of Electro AoE DMG. This DMG is considered Lunar-Charged DMG.
· Lunar-Bloom: Gravity Interference will fire 5 Moondew Sigils at surrounding opponents, dealing Dendro DMG. This DMG is considered Lunar-Bloom DMG.
· Lunar-Crystallize: Gravity Interference will deal a single instance of Geo AoE DMG. This DMG is considered Lunar-Crystallize DMG.
When party members trigger Lunar-Bloom reactions, the party will receive such a resource.
Your party will receive 1 Verdant Dew every 2.5s for 2.5s after triggering a Lunar-Bloom reaction. Your party can have up to 3 Verdant Dew. If you trigger another Lunar-Bloom reaction during this time, the duration of this effect will be reset.
