Genshin Impact 5★ Hydro Catalyst Main DPS
Energy Recharge (ER) is the focus until hitting the required value, then aim to get HP to 35k. Afterwards you can invest into CRIT stats.
How much Energy Recharge Columbina needs to cast the Burst every rotation, by team and by weapon. Where a target is out of reach, the advice beside it says what to do instead.
| Team | Burst Every Rotation | Burst Every Other Rotation |
|---|---|---|
| Premium Lunar-Charged Team | ~200% | ~110% |
| Premium Lunar-Bloom Team | ~250% | ~130% |
| Premium Lunar-Crystallize Team | ~210% | ~110% |
| Reduction per team Favonius trigger | -20% | -10% |
| Reduction from Nocturne’s Curtain Call/Prototype Amber | -50% | -30% |

Normal Attack should be levelled if played as the main Damage Dealer.
Columbina as an off-field Sub-DPS simply requires her to use her Skill. Her Burst is used if available, but typically isn’t required every rotation. An exception to this are on Lunar-Bloom teams, which often prefer it.
Columbina is similarly simple to use as a Main DPS, as she can simply hold down her Attack button to repeatedly use her special Charged Attack so long as the team has Verdant Dew. For those looking to maximize her, however, they can be cancelled with any of her dash, Skill, or Burst as soon as the Verdant Dew is consumed for a minor damage increase. Beyond this, just cycle through teammates as needed to reapply buffs as needed, or to buy time for Verdant Dew generation.
Rotation and combos from the prydwen.gg guide, rephrased
Columbina plays sub DPS in this Lunar Bloom team built around Nefer, with Lauma (support) and Yaoyao (support). Nefer, Lauma and Yaoyao give Dendro resonance (Sprawling Greenery: Elemental Mastery +50, more after Dendro reactions). Yaoyao heals.
Columbina plays sub DPS in this Bloom team built around Lauma, with Yelan (sub DPS) and Kuki Shinobu (support). Columbina and Yelan give Hydro resonance (Soothing Water: Max HP +25%). Kuki Shinobu heals.
Columbina plays sub DPS in this Lunar Charged team built around Flins, with Xilonen (support) and Ineffa (support). Flins and Ineffa give Electro resonance (High Voltage: Electro reactions drop Electro particles). Xilonen heals, Ineffa shields.
Columbina carries this Lunar Charged team as main DPS, with Sucrose (sub DPS), Jahoda (support) and Ineffa (support). Sucrose and Jahoda give Anemo resonance (Impetuous Winds: stamina use −15%, movement speed +10%, skill cooldowns −5%). Jahoda heals, Ineffa shields.
Hydro carry with two Electro units for Electro-Charged and resonance, and Anemo to swirl across the pack.
Three Geo units for the resonance shield and damage bonus, with Columbina adding Hydro application around Zibai.
Genshin Impact 5★ Hydro Catalyst Main DPS
Nocturne's Curtain Call tops the weapon ranking for Columbina at R1, ahead of Sacrificial Jade, Favonius Codex and Prototype Amber. That order is prydwen.gg's, measured in play and rephrased here; every row of it sits under Weapons below.
Run Silken Moon's Serenade on Columbina, with Aubade of Morningstar and Moon and Deepwood Memories behind it. Main stats are Energy Recharge = HP% sands, HP% goblet, CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG > HP% circlet. Roll substats in the order ER > HP% > CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG.
Talent priority is Skill = Burst > Level. The Elemental Burst costs 60 energy, which is what an Energy Recharge target has to clear.
Aim for -50% to -10% Energy Recharge, depending on the team and the weapon, per prydwen.gg's calcs.
The strongest team is Nefer, Lauma, Yaoyao and Columbina, built around Columbina: Hydro · Lunar Bloom.
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.

When triggering Gravity Interference, Columbina gains the Lunacy effect, increasing her CRIT Rate by 5% for 10s. This effect can be stacked up to 3 times.

Up to 3 Moonridge Dews can be gained every 18s. · Lunar-Crystallize: When Moondrift Harmony is triggered, every Moondrift has a 33% chance to inflict an extra attack.

For every 1,000 points of Max HP, the Base DMG of Lunar reactions is increased by 0.2%, up to a maximum of 7%.

Columbina’s outfit is a weightless, graceful raiment crafted by the Kuuhenki from Frostmoon Scion fabrics and threaded with strands of gentle moonlight. The Frostmoon Scions, not quite fully understanding what they were seeing, naturally assumed this new vestment to be yet another miracle from Kuutar. No wonder that, ever since then, Columbina would occasionally hear wishes like, "Lady Kuutar, kindly grant me a hand as nimble as your own, I beseech you."
Names, descriptions and art from the game data. Pick an outfit on the stage to see it full size.
Columbina is a 5-star Hydro character from Nod-Krai who uses a catalyst, released in version 6.3.
Columbina's abilities multiply HP. That is read from the scaling rows on the Elemental Skill and Burst, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.
Nocturne's Curtain Call is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star catalyst with CRIT DMG as its ascension stat, and its passive acts on HP. Ring of Yaxche is the best 4-star alternative.
Heart of Depth. Its 2-piece bonus is: Hydro DMG Bonus +15% Its 4-piece bonus is: After using Elemental Skill, increases Normal Attack and Charged Attack DMG by 30% for 15s.
Taking one talent from level 1 to 10 costs 1,652,500 Mora and 38× Philosophies of Moonlight among other materials. The Materials tab lists every item per level.
