What it costs to finish this character

1,350
resin, level 1 → 90 and all three talents to 10
2,072,500
mora
8
days at a minimum, if you spend nothing else

Ascension alone: 760 resin (boss drops only) · talents alone: 590 resin.

Talent books: Moonlight. To show the days this domain opens, add its row to the rotation table — the six regions already in it are there, and this one is not, so no day is claimed for it.

A Crown of Insight is needed for the tenth level of each talent, and crowns are not farmable at any resin price — they come from events.

Materials and mora above are exact, straight from the game’s own tables. The resin figure and the day count divide by an average drop per run, which the game does not publish — they are a community-measured mean, not a promise.

Eternal Tides

Awaken Moonbound Tides, dealing AoE Hydro DMG and summoning {LINK#N11250001}Gravity Ripple{/LINK}.

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.

Weapons and artifacts

UNSURE This is not a tier list and not community guidance — this product has neither. It is a mechanical shortlist, and the rule is printed so you can check it: Catalysts of 4★ and above whose secondary stat is one this character’s ascension stat scales with, ordered by base attack at level 90. Weapon passives are not weighed, because a passive is an effect and not a number.

Mirrored Nymph stacks created by Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks, Elemental Skills, and Elemental Bursts exist independently.

To turn this into a real recommendation section, add a build dataset — per character, the weapons and sets a community source actually recommends, with the rotation each assumes. Nothing in the game’s published data contains that judgement, and a ranking invented here would be indistinguishable from a researched one, which is why there is not one.

Teams

To build a team section, add team data. Which characters go together is judgement about rotations, energy and shielding that this product does not receive and will not guess at.
