Nicole is a new upcoming character in Genshin Impact, soon to be arriving in Version 6.6. She is a 5-star Pyro element character currently thought to be a support charcacter. Although we dont know much yet here are her known abilities and light cone from currently known information from Nanoka.cc and Seele.
What Abilities and Skills Does Nicole Use?
Abilities:
- Normal Attack (Allegoria): “Normal Attack – Proclaims a decree in the primordial tongue and performs up to 3 attacks that deal Pyro DMG. Charged Attack – Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to deal AoE Pyro DMG to opponents in front of her after a short casting time. Plunging Attack – Nicole plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Also deals AoE Pyro DMG upon impact with the ground.”
- Elemental Skill (Revelation: Uncreated Light): “Recreates a fleeting glimpse of an age long past, when the angels acted on the authority of the heavens, bestowing the Grace of Kenosis 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.”
- Elemental Burst (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 5 times each time Nicole switches to Silent Contemplation mode.”
- Passive Talents:
| 1 – Methexis “For 20s after unleashing the Elemental Skill Revelation: Uncreated Light, Nicole will continuously “Observe” the other current active party members. After the observed character has remained on the field for 3s, their Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis, increasing their ATK by an additional 300. If the observed character is a Hexerei character, Grace of Kenosis is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis straight away. When characters other than Nicole who have Guidance of Theosis leave the field, their effect reverts to Grace of Kenosis.” | 2 – Philokalia When a nearby active party member deals Elemental DMG, Nicole’s Grace of Kenosis effect is upgraded to Guidance of Theosis for 8s. |
| 3 – Nepsis Nicole’s Charged Attack becomes “Emissarial Guidance” if you have already obtained the current region’s Treasure Compass outside of combat in Teyvat. Emissarial Guidance: Calls upon nearby Seelie to show the way, triggering an effect similar to the region’s Treasure Compass. This effect has a cooldown time of 5 seconds and does not work in Domains, Trounce Domains, and the Spiral Abyss. | 4 – Witch’s Eve Rite: Light in the Darkness After completing Witch’s Homework: The Role of a Guide, Nicole becomes a Hexerei character. When the party includes at least 2 Hexerei characters, you gain the Hexerei: Secret Rite effect, which enhances Hexerei characters. Hexerei: Secret Rite Increases the DMG dealt by Hexerei characters’ Arcane Projections by 150% of Nicole’s ATK. |

Crown of the Final Scion – “ATK is increased by 12%/15%/18%/21%/24%. After the equipping character creates a Shield, they gain “Pathfinder’s Light” for 20s: Increases your active party member’s DMG by 10%/13%/16%/19%/22% for every 1,000 ATK the equipping character has, up to a maximum of 26%/34%/42%/50%/58%. While Pathfinder’s Light is in effect, and when your active party member hits a nearby opponent or opens a chest outside of combat, they will also gain “Guide’s Contentment”: Restores 14/15/16/17/18 Elemental Energy to the equipping character. The aforementioned effect can trigger once every 16s and can be triggered even when the equipping character is off-field.”
“Hexerei: Secret Rite: When there are off-field Hexerei characters in your party, they will also gain 50% of the DMG increase from Pathfinder’s Light.”
