  1. So I found that using her for a shielded driver with furina and fischl both dealing off field damage to create hyper bloom is really fun. Just run around in her little cat box and watch stuff blow up

  2. Man I wish I would’ve gotten a kirara but I went 130+ wishes and got another yae con on her original banner. This time I’ve gone 50 wishes no kirara still and I don’t wanna get another 5 star again man 😢

  3. Good video. But the reasoning at the beginning was silly

    I disagree with the idea that Genshin was dying around the time Kirara came out. Western content creators were just going through their usual cycle of drama farming during the later patches.

  4. Kinda tempted to get a key on the next nilou rerun if the banner is good. Support swords and bows are just so good.
    But key kinda takes the cake for how often it shows up as a relevant option for a non nilou character.

  5. Although Kirara is definitely underrated, she's worse than Baizhu basically in every team except in some cases Tighnari (interruption resistance is important) and at high constellations in Aggravate and Spread teams where her application is enough and damage is higher than Baizhu's, while healing can be replaced with shielding (doesn't work that well with Nilou because you can't heal back the damage if you accidentally lose the shield and because her application pre-C4 is too inconsistent. Frontloaded, but inconsistent. She's arguably better than Yaoyao in Aggravate and probably Spread, but Yaoyao in my opinion is better in Nilou teams and in Burgeon/Hyperbloom, mostly because of her better dendro application.

  6. She has the 3rd best shield, with 30k HP talent lvl9

    Zhongli shield = 9034
    Layla = 7622
    Kirara = 7056(tap)~11,293(hold)

    Zhongli shield being number 1 since it has extra dmg reduction added to it and its a geo shield. I think kirara is a great shield bot to teams that needs dendro and a shielder.

  7. Not sure if I feel comfortable playing a team with no healer yet. I do eventually want to build my c0 kirara, she’s only 70 w/ level 6 talents and I mainly use for open world for climbing . I’m sure with higher investment she’ll be a fine choice, but getting flashbacks of 3.7 abyss with consecrated beasts, doesn’t matter how strong your shield was it just got chunked. I do like the look of that nilou team, but I’m not sure how heavy the sustain can be with no healer.

  8. I want to get her but afraid of pulling a 5 star i don't need. I don't have either of them but i don't need another Hydro dps with my limited gems and Cyno seems like a unit i would build then never use again.

  9. I don't think that people think that she's underrated. It's just that pulling just one copy of a 4 star can be really hard, so a lot of people that want to play her don't have her. I have 80 pulls between both of her banners and still don't have a single copy of her. Now I have to wait until God knows when to try again.

    "Kirara is one of the defensive units with the highest damage potential in the game"
    Huh, now that would be an interesting tier list! Ranking units that have active character defensive utility in the game and rank them based on strength. Which healer, shielder, and interruption resistance units are the least DPS loss to include in your team. A tier list like this would be very helpful for casuals still wanting a strong team to help clear abyss with.

  11. I really wanted to use Kirara with Nilou, but every time I've tried replacing Collei with her, it seems to just exchange a lot of damage for somewhat better consistency. Though that's partly because Kirara is c0 and Collei is c6, because they only put her on undesirable banners… the Instructor idea might be worth a try, hopefully it doesn't weaken her shield too much.

  12. Problem with Kirara is she runs on banners that people don't want to pull on.
    Yoimiya?
    Yae?(maybe)
    Ayato?
    Cyno?
    All yikes choice. Imagine if she ran on Furina banner, it'll be insane but hoyoverse is all about that $_$

  13. U can play kirara in hyperbloom team like nahida, yelan, kirara, kuki cus in this team u don't have a unit like xq to protect u & provide interruption to resistance. She's good in this & the dendro res does helps alot if your kuki is below 1000em mark.

  14. I like the subtitles but the font is small and the style is harder to read than id like. What are your thoughts on Layla? She's similar in that she's a shielder that does dmg. How's her damage in a freeze team? Praise worthy or forgettable? Thirdly, you said kirara does impressive damage like baizhu but then showed graphs where baizhu and kirara do 6% of a teams damage. Is that supposed to be a lot? I feel like sub 10% is just not noteworthy. Its like when people say jean is a big damaging healer. I dont get how these numbers are impressive? Thanks for the interesting video!

  15. Interesting, no wonder I found her to be garbage.
    I don't have c4.
    I don't use 4 star artifact sets.
    I don't invest into damage main stats on a survivability unit or grind months for their substats.
    Obviously I also don't have 5 star weapons to waste on a niche support.
    I also gave her EM sands instead of ATK tho with HP cup and circlet without Crit, ATK would be useless anyway.
    Oh and I don't ever play without a healer except for Hu Tao so I'd still need Yaoyao or Baizhu or Kokomi anyway which makes Kirara kinda unnecessary and way inferior to Collei or Nahida in the second dendro slot.

    Yep, thanks, for the video, at least I was able to confirm this unit is not for me but it's good to know c4 might at least improve her.
