Overview

  • Healer
  • Attack speed buffer
  • Physical support

Mika is a 4-star support who heals and speeds up your on-field attacker. His Elemental Skill gives the party Soulwind, which raises the active character's attack speed, and his passives turn Soulwind into a stacking Physical damage bonus. His Elemental Burst heals the party once and then keeps healing the active character whenever their Normal Attacks land.

His healing scales with his Max HP, so give him HP and enough Energy Recharge to have the Burst ready each rotation. He shines with Physical damage dealers such as Eula, Razor and Freminet, but the attack speed helps any character who relies on Normal Attacks.

Weapons

Best first. Every polearm on this list links to its page.

  1. Dialogues of the Desert Sages ★★★★

    Raises his HP and refunds Energy when he heals, which he does constantly during his Burst.

  2. Favonius Lance ★★★★

    Energy Recharge and particles for the team. Needs a few CRIT Rate substats to trigger reliably.

  3. Rightful Reward ★★★★

    HP as a main stat and an Energy refund whenever he is healed, which his own Burst can do.

  4. "The Catch" ★★★★

    A free fishing polearm. Its Energy Recharge stat makes it easy to have his Burst ready.

Artifact sets

  1. Noblesse Oblige 4-piece

    His Burst gives the whole party an ATK buff with this set, which adds damage on top of his own buffs.

  2. Tenacity of the Millelith + Maiden Beloved 2-piece each

    Max HP plus Healing Bonus. Use this if you just want stronger heals.

  3. Ocean-Hued Clam 4-piece

    Turns his steady healing into a bit of extra damage. A reasonable choice if you have the pieces.

Teams

  • Eula Superconduct

    Raiden triggers Superconduct to cut Physical RES, Mika speeds up Eula's swings and adds Physical damage, and Zhongli shields her.

  • Freminet Physical

    Fischl supplies Electro for Superconduct, Mika adds attack speed and Physical damage, and Zhongli keeps Freminet from being knocked around.

  • Budget Physical

    All 4-stars. Mika's attack speed makes Razor's claymore swings much faster, Fischl triggers Superconduct, and Bennett adds ATK.

Tips

  • Hold his Skill to fire a Rimestar Flare at one target. The shards it throws at nearby enemies each add a Detector stack, so against groups the hold version builds the Physical bonus quickly.
  • Recast his Skill only after the buff runs out, because using it again clears the stacks you already built.
  • His Burst heals the active character each time their Normal Attacks hit. It works best with characters who attack constantly.

Other character guides recommend Mika as a teammate in these teams.
