Turbo Twirly is considered a Geo Construct.
It is important to understand the Elemental type of the Construct to effectively utilize it in Reactions and Elemental Reactions such as Crystallize or Shatter.
When building a team around the Turbo Twirly, consider characters with Geo Elemental abilities, such as Zhongli or Albedo, and Artifacts like the Archaic Petra set for increased Geo DMG.
Some key game mechanics to keep in mind:

  • Using 20% or higher Energy Recharge (ER) to maintain Elemental Burst (EB) uptime
  • Applying Bonus effects like Elemental Mastery (EM) to increase Reaction damage
  • Focusing on 80% or higher Crit Rate for increased damage output

For farming Materials, consider visiting Liyue or Mondstadt for an abundance of Geo Elemental enemies and resources.

Kachina Support and Off-Field DPS Current section is a WIP and may change in the future
A lot of Kachina's value comes from being able to provide the 4pc Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City effect. She is also able to deal some off-field damage and provide a construct which can be beneficial in certain Geo teams, such as when paired with Chiori. Do note that while Kachina can deal some off-field damage, her personal damage is relatively poor and she can be built as a low investment support without heavy offensive stat investment. Regarding mainstat and substat priority:

  • If you are building Kachina as a low investment support, using the correct mainstats is not important.
  • Crit Rate should be prioritised further in this case when using Favonius Lance for more consistent triggers.
Regarding Weapon Choices:
  • Footprint of the Rainbow: Kachina can opt to use this weapon if her ER needs are satisfied and the team does not value the energy from Favonius Lance.

Turbo Twirly only looks like a top — it is, in fact, a drill that can split even the strongest rock asunder!
