Genshin Impact Mika: Elemental Skill, Burst, Constellations, Release Date, and More
Normal Attacks, Elemental Skill, and Burst Explained
Overall, according to his leaked set, currently available on Project Amber, Mika’s normal moveset will be composed of a series of Polearm slashes and crossbow shots. His Elemental Skill, Starfrost Swirl, on the other hand, will allow Mika to perform a quick or an aimed crossbow shot by pressing or holding his Skill respectively. The shot will then deal Cryo damage to enemies and apply the Soulwind effect to teammates for a set amount of time. Characters affected by Soulwind will have their ATK Speed increased by 13 to 25% depending on the Skill’s level.
With that said, Mika’s biggest strength will lie in his Elemental Burst. Skyfeather Song, as performing it will allow him to regenerate the HP of his party members and then apply the Eagleplume state to them. While under the effects of the said state, the on-field character will be able to periodically regenerate HP by performing hits.
