Genshin Impact Kirara Talents (Skills)
Boxcutter
Normal Attack
Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 rapid strikes.
Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 3 rapid claw strikes.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Meow-teor Kick
Elemental Skill
Press
Leaps into the air with all the agility of a cat passing through the bushes, and thwacks her foes with a flying kick that deals AoE Dendro DMG while creating a Shield of Safe Transport. This will also briefly apply Dendro to Kirara.
The shield will absorb Dendro DMG with 250% effectiveness. The shield’s DMG absorption will be based on Kirara’s Max HP and will not exceed a certain percentage of that Max HP. The remaining DMG absorption on a Shield of Safe Transport will stack on a new one when it is created, and its duration will reset.
Hold
Out of her desire to “deliver within half a day,” Kirara deploys a Shield of Safe Transport identical to the one that can be created by pressing the skill. She will also curl up into a special express delivery box, entering the Urgent Neko Parcel state in order to move and fight more swiftly.
Urgent Neko Parcel
- Deals Dendro DMG to opponents she crashes into. This effect can be triggered once on each opponent every 0.5s.
- When in this state, Kirara’s movement speed, climbing speed, and jumping power are all increased, and her Stamina Consumption from climbing is increased.
- When the duration ends or the skill is used again, a Flipclaw Strike more powerful than the attack in the Mode will be unleashed, dealing AoE Dendro DMG.
- The Urgent Neko Parcel state lasts a maximum of 10s. When the state ends, the skill will enter CD. The longer Kirara spends in this state, the longer the CD will be.
- Sprinting or actively canceling climbing will end this state early.
Secret Art: Surprise Dispatch
Elemental Burst
Unleashes a Celestial Dreamsphere that constantly fires Starlight Slugs at opponents within its AoE, dealing Cryo DMG.
When a Starlight Slug hits, it will generate 1 Night Star for nearby Curtains of Slumber. Each Curtain of Slumber can gain 1 Night Star this way every 0.5s.
Bewitching, Betwitching Tails
1st Ascension Passive
When Kirara is in the Urgent Neko Parcel state of Meow-teor Kick, each impact against an opponent will grant her a stack of Reinforced Packaging. This effect can be triggered once for each opponent hit every 0.5s. Max 3 stacks.
When the Urgent Neko Parcel state ends, each stack of Reinforced Packaging will create 1 Shield of Safe Transport for Kirara. The shields that are created this way will have 20% of the DMG absorption that the Shield of Safe Transport produced by Meow-teor Kick would have.
If Kirara is already protected by a Shield of Safe Transport created by Meow-teor Kick, its DMG absorption will stack with these shields and its duration will reset.
Pupillary Variance
4th Ascension Passive
Every 1,000 Max HP Kirara possesses will increase the DMG dealt by Meow-teor Kick by 0.4%, and the DMG dealt by Secret Art: Surprise Dispatch by 0.3%.
Cat's Creeping Carriage
Utility Passive
When Kirara is in the party, animals who produce Fowl, Raw Meat, or Chilled Meat will not be startled when party members approach them.
Genshin Impact Kirara Constellations from C1 to C6

Genshin Impact Kirara Team Combo
The AoE explosive equivalent of Hyperbloom. Burgeon deals recoil damage to you if you’re caught in the explosions, and these hits of damage add up.
Kirara’s shield offers some protection when Thoma’s is on cooldown. Keep in mind, though, that shields do not stack; an attack that deals 3,000 damage will damage both shields for 3,000 damage. However, if you don’t have Thoma, you can instead use a character with slow Pyro application like Dehya.
Kirara
It’s wise to have additional protection options on this team, which is what Kirara is here for. A healer in addition to this shield is necessary for survival.
Thoma
The most sensible dedicated Burgeon trigger, thanks to Thoma’s slow Pyro application and shield generation, protecting the teams from Burgeon reactions created.
Xingqiu
The best 4-star Hydro applicator. His Burst applies Hydro and deals respectable damage in synchonicity with the active character’s Normal Attacks and the orbiting swords that act as defensive utility also apply Hydro to enemies when in direct contact.
Nahida
The best choice for maximizing the damage potential of Dendro-based reactions. She needs almost no field time and shares EM with the active character.
Genshin Impact Kirara Weapon
Kirara only cares about HP and, to a lesser degree, Energy Recharge, which limits her viable weapon choices. However, she is quite Free-to-Play friendly, despite her best weapon being a limited 5-star.
Key of Khaj-Nisut
Base ATK 542 | HP 14.4%
(66.2%)
Sunken Song of the Sands
HP increased by 20~40%. When an Elemental Skill hits opponents, you gain the Grand Hymn effect for 20s. This effect increases the equipping character’s Elemental Mastery by 0.12~0.24% of their Max HP. This effect can trigger once every 0.3s. Max 3 stacks.
When this effect gains 3 stacks, or when the third stack’s duration is refreshed, the Elemental Mastery of all nearby party members will be increased by 0.2~0.4% of the equipping character’s max HP for 20s.
Primordial Jade-Cutter
Base ATK 542 | CRIT Rate 9.6% (44.1%)
Protector’s Virtue
HP increased by 20~40%. Additionally, provides an ATK Bonus based on 1.2~2.4% of the wielder’s Max HP.
Sapwood Blade
Base ATK 565 | Energy Recharge 6.7% (30.6%)
Forest Sanctuary
After triggering Burning, Quicken, Aggravate, Spread, Bloom, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon, a Leaf of Consciousness will be created around the character for a maximum of 10s. When picked up, the Leaf will grant the character 60~120 Elemental Mastery for 12s. Only 1 Leaf can be generated this way every 20s.
This effect can still be triggered if the character is not on the field. The Leaf of Consciousness’ effect cannot stack.

Skyrider Sword

Determination
