Mualani Guide

Mualani is a 5-star Hydro Catalyst character in Genshin Impact who chews up her enemies with hefty on-field nukes, all while surfing around on a very cute shark. Learn about Mualani’s best builds, best weapons, best artifacts, and best teams in this quick guide.

Mualani's entire kit scaling is on HP% so giving her as much HP as possible while Crit Rate/DMG and Energy Recharge is important! What's even better that with her having so much HP she will not be as squishy, which is very important due to her being a Catalyst User (weapon type that has the lowest Defense and HP out of everyone). But remember how I said she does great reactions in teams meant for Vaporize? So make sure to try and get some Elemental Mastery for her as well since she'll be the one creating the reaction! Elemental Mastery can be gained from artifact substats, or from a party member that has a mechanic to give team members Elemental Mastery.

Normal Attack

Normal Attack: Cooling Treatment Performs up o 3 attacks that deal Hydro DMG. 

Charge Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to smack a Pufferball into the air that deals AoE  Hydro DMG upon landing.

Plunge Attack: Gathers the power of Hydro and plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Hydro DMG upon impact with the ground.

Skill

Combining her mastery of speed and the waves and water, Mualani can surf anytime, anywhere. After using this skill, Mualani will gain 60 Nightsoul points and enter the Nightsoul's Blessing state.

 Nightsoul's Blessing: Mualani Continuously consume Nightsoul points. When they are depleted or when the skill is used again, Mualani's Nightsoul's Blessing will end. The state itself has the following traits: ·Mualani mounts her Sharky Surfboard, increasing Mualani's Movement SPD and interruption resistance. Mualani can move on water and liquid Phlogiston while this state is active, and she will take no DMG from the latter.
 ·Normal Attacks will be converted to Sharky's Bites, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Hydro DMG based on Mualani's Max HP. Sharky's Bites can be used in mid-air. DMG dealt this way is considered Normal Attack DMG. 

·When she makes contact with opponents in this state, Mualani applies "Marked as Prey" to them and gains 1 Wave Momentum stack. Max 3 stacks. 1 stack can be gained from the same opponent every 0.7s. Wave Momentum and Marked as Prey When Mualani uses Sharky's Bite, her DMG dealt increases based on Wave Momentum stacks. When she has 3 stacks, Sharky's Bite will be converted to Sharky's Surging Bite, further increasing her DMG and removing all her stacks when hitting an opponent. When Sharky's Bite hits an opponent Marked as Prey, that mark will be removed, and she will fire Shark Missiles at up to 5 nearby opponents Marked as Prey, dealing DMG to them equal to this Sharky's Bite instance and clearing their Marks. If more than 1 opponent is the target of Sharky's Bite and Shark Missiles, the DMG dealt will decrease, decreasing at most to 72% of the original DMG when 3 opponents are targeted.

Elemental Burst

Fires a Super Shark Missile that can track opponents, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Hydro DMG based on Mualani's Max HP.
