What it costs to finish this character
Ascension alone: 760 resin (boss drops only) · talents alone: 590 resin.
Talent books: Elysium. 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.

Revelation: Uncreated Light
Recreates a fleeting glimpse of an age long past, when the angels acted on the authority of the heavens, bestowing the {LINK#N11310001}Grace of Kenosis{/LINK}{LINK#N11310002}{/LINK} 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.

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...

Constellations
- C1 · "Do Not Be Afraid, Child Who Is Loved"
When the current active character of your own in the party 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.
- C2 · "I Will Guide You and Show You the Path You Should Tread"
Enhances the effects of the Elemental Skill {LINK#S11312}Revelation: Uncreated Light{/LINK}: {LINK#N11310001}Grace of Kenosis{/LINK} increases ATK by an additional 300 (which does not count toward this effect's ATK Bonus limit), while {LINK#N11310002}Guidance of Theosis{/LINK} decreases nearby opponents' Elemental RES based on the corresponding character's Elemental Type by 25%. This 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.
- C3 · "A Lamp by Your Side, A Light to Shine the Way"
Increases the Level of {LINK#S11312}Revelation: Uncreated Light{/LINK} by 3.

When nearby party members have their {LINK#N11310001}Grace of Kenosis{/LINK} upgraded to {LINK#N11310002}Guidance of Theosis{/LINK}, 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.
- C5 · "You Will Hear My Voice Beside You"
Increases the Level of {LINK#S11315}Revelation: Ladder of Divine Ascent{/LINK} by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
- C6 · "This Is the Path, Walk It Without Delay"
When Nicole's {LINK#N11310001}Grace of Kenosis{/LINK} is upgraded to {LINK#N11310002}Guidance of Theosis{/LINK}, 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.
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.
| Weapon | Rarity | Base ATK at 90 | Secondary stat |
|---|---|---|---|
 Crane's Echoing Call | 5★ | 741 | ATK% |
 Angelos' Heptades | 5★ | 741 | ATK% |
 Skyward Atlas | 5★ | 674 | ATK% |
 Tulaytullah's Remembrance | 5★ | 674 | CRIT DMG |
 Cashflow Supervision | 5★ | 674 | CRIT Rate |
 Vivid Notions | 5★ | 674 | CRIT DMG |
 Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds | 5★ | 608 | CRIT Rate |
 Memory of Dust | 5★ | 608 | ATK% |
| Set | Two-piece | Four-piece |
|---|---|---|
| Resolution of Sojourner | ATK +18%. | Increases Charged Attack CRIT Rate by 30%. |
| Brave Heart | ATK +18%. | Increases DMG by 30% against opponents with more than 50% HP. |
| Gladiator's Finale | ATK +18%. | If the wielder of this artifact set uses a Sword, Claymore or Polearm, increases their Normal Attack DMG by 35%. |
| Crimson Witch of Flames | Pyro DMG Bonus +15% | Increases Overloaded, Burning, and Burgeon DMG by 40%. Increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%. Using Elemental Skill increases the 2-Piece Set Bonus by 50% of its starting value for 10s. Max 3 stacks. |
| Shimenawa's Reminiscence | ATK +18%. | When casting an Elemental Skill, if the character has 15 or more Energy, they lose 15 Energy and Normal/Charged/Plunging Attack DMG is increased by 50% for 10s. This effect will not trigger again during that duration. |
| Vermillion Hereafter | ATK +18%. | After using an Elemental Burst, this character will gain the Nascent Light effect, increasing their ATK by 8% for 16s. When the character's HP decreases, their ATK will further increase by 10%. This further increase can occur this way a maximum of 4 times. This effect can be triggered once every 0.8s. Nascent Light will be dispelled when the character leaves the field. If an Elemental Burst is used again during the duration of Nascent Light, the original Nascent Light will be dispelled. |
| Echoes of an Offering | ATK +18%. | When Normal Attacks hit opponents, there is a 36% chance that it will trigger Valley Rite, which will increase Normal Attack DMG by 70% of ATK. This effect will be dispelled 0.05s after a Normal Attack deals DMG. If a Normal Attack fails to trigger Valley Rite, the odds of it triggering the next time will increase by 20%. This trigger can occur once every 0.2s. |
| Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods | ATK +18%. | After using an Elemental Skill, gain a 20% Geo DMG Bonus for 10s. When under a shield granted by the Crystallize reaction, or when Moondrifts formed by Lunar-Crystallize reactions are nearby, the above effect is increased by 150%. When these conditions are no longer met, this additional increase disappears after 1s. |
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.
