Genshin Impact players disappointed by Kokomi\u2019s \u201cunderwhelming\u201d abilities miHoYoSangonomiya Kokomi has finally made her big debut in the Genshin Impact 2.1 update, but fans aren\u2019t happy with her lack of synergy. Kokomi is the latest 5-star character to join Genshin Impact\u2019s ever-growing roster, but just like Baal, players aren\u2019t happy with Kokomi\u2019s abilities. While the Hydro healer can save her allies from succumbing to a quick death, there are a number of problems that have been raised by the game\u2019s playerbase. One of the main concerns comes down to how Kokomi synergizes with current team comps, particularly given that there are other supports who outclass her. While Kokomi\u2019s place within the wider Genshin Impact meta won\u2019t matter for those who like her design, the current issues surrounding the Pearl of Wisdom have put a lot of players off of using her. Genshin Impact fans disappointed by Kokomi abilities Support characters are invariably a great option for those looking to tackle tough enemies, but a number of Genshin Impact players believe that the game\u2019s current content lacks the need for such a healer reliant role. \u201cI think it\u2019s fine to be a 5-star niche but at least be a niche that people would actually want or need,\u201d said nullmarked. \u201cA healer niche with current content is just pointless.\u201d While Kokomi\u2019s role as a healer isn\u2019t a problem, many players have been disappointed to find that her abilities share a similar theme to Noelle\u2019s \u2013 a free 4-star Geo character. \u201cLooking at Kokomi\u2019s kit, it\u2019s pretty easy to see what her intended playstyle is,\u201d says Felyndiira. \u201cShe pops her ult, becomes an immortal healer that heals all her damage, and deals some okay damage in return. This isn\u2019t really a \u2018meta\u2019 concept but is not really a bad concept in theory. Except, we already have an immortal healer that pops her ult, heals, never takes damage, and deals good damage in return. Her name is Noelle.\u201d However, unlike Noelle, Kokomi\u2019s entire kit is tailored around healing. There\u2019s also the fact that her ability to apply hydro to all enemies is closely matched by Mona \u2013 another Hydro 5-star that has been in the game since launch. To make matters worse, Kokomi\u2019s Elemental Skill (Kurage\u2019s Oath) lacks synergy with her signature weapon. Everlasting Moonglow grants energy recharge whenever Kokomi attacks, which is at odds with her healing-orientated kit. After all, Kokomi\u2019s abilities enable players to apply her Elemental Skill, before switching out into their main DPS characters. Unfortunately, the same can\u2019t be said for her Burst, which forces players to attack with Kokomi in order to heal nearby allies.

Instead, what players are left with is a support\/damage dealer hybrid that feels a little at odds with itself. Whether MiHoYo will make any adjustments to Kokomi\u2019s abilities remains to be seen, but for now, it appears fans aren\u2019t happy with her current playstyle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
