Sangonomiya Kokomi is a 5-star Hydro catalyst user and the Divine Priestess of Watatsumi Island.
Known for her tactical brilliance and healing grace, Kokomi offers off-field Hydro application, team-wide healing, and surprising on-field carry potential with the right setup.
The best Kokomi build focuses on HP scaling and Hydro uptime, either for healing or as a driver in Bloom and Electro-Charged teams.
Unlike other characters, Kokomi has a unique trait: she cannot CRIT due to her passive, instead gaining healing bonuses in return. This makes her one of the most consistent healers in the game while also enabling damage through Elemental Reactions.

How to Play Kokomi Effectively
Kokomi’s strength lies in reliable Hydro application and full-party healing. Her Elemental Skill, Kurage’s Oath, summons a jellyfish that applies Hydro and heals allies over time.
Her Elemental Burst, Nereid’s Ascension, empowers her Normal Attacks with Hydro and healing effects, scaling entirely from her Max HP.
The best Kokomi build focuses on HP% and Healing Bonus, allowing her to stay on-field during Burst and trigger reactions while keeping the team alive. Use her in Dendro and Electro comps to maximize Bloom or Electro-Charged uptime, or rotate her in as a healer in Freeze teams.
Is Kokomi Worth Building?
Yes — Kokomi is an S-tier support and healer, especially valuable in Dendro and Freeze team metas.
Her reliable healing, Hydro application, and low-maintenance playstyle make her one of the most versatile units in the game.
