Best Diona Builds

SUPPORT As a support, Diona's typically used for three things: Shielding, Healing, and Cryo particle generation. Pairing Diona with Cryo damage dealers such as Ayaka, Ganyu, and Eula allows you to funnel energy into them while providing them a shield. Weapons such as Sacrificial Bow and Favonius Warbow greatly increase her potential as a battery. Regarding Weapon Choices: - Sacrificial Bow: Preferred over Favonius Warbow at higher refinements when batterying another Cryo character. - Favonius Warbow: It is recommended to build some Crit Rate in substats to have a higher chance of triggering the bow passive for energy. - Silvershower Heartstrings & Recurve Bow: These bows will be your best choice for stronger shields; however, the Energy Recharge and useful passives of other weapons will generally make them a suboptimal pick. Regarding Artifact Sets: - Noblesse Oblige (4): This set provides a teamwide ATK% buff while also increasing burst damage - Diona does not have the best uptime on this set, however, she may be the best option to use this set. - Instructor (4): This set is a niche option for Diona. It can be considered in teams which value EM and where she can trigger a reaction while on-field. Do keep in mind that Instructor being limited to a 4* set means your stat potential will be lower. - Tenacity of the Millelith (4): This set is a niche option for Diona. It can be considered in teams including some variants of Ganyu Freeze which have shorter rotation lengths, meaning Diona's burst will not be used every rotation, and where you can snapshot the ATK% buff onto Ganyu's burst. Regarding Main Stats Priority: - Full Stack HP% is recommended if you want stronger shields but a weaker heal. - Healing Bonus Circlet can be used for a nice balance between the two. Regarding Talent Priority: - Prioritise whichever your Diona is geared for (shielder or healer). - If built for a balance between the two, level both equally.

Icy Paws

When she first started bartending, Diona found that no matter how much ice she put in her cocktails, it would never do a drunkard any harm. That all changed when she received her Vision — now she can form ice cold enough to cause severe brainfreeze. Five out of five stars!

The shield's DMG Absorption scales based on Diona's Max HP, and its duration scales off the number of Icy Paws that hit their target.

Hold
Dashes back quickly before firing 5 Icy Paws.
The shield created by a Hold attack will gain a 75% DMG Absorption Bonus.
