Genshin Impact Kachina: Leaked Kit, Speculated Release Date & Build

Kachina is a 4-star Geo character featuring in Genshin Impact 5.0 and her kit is focused towards off-field sub-DPS. Her leaked kit is focused around the Geo construct Turbo Twirly, which she can both mount or leave on-field to deal damage to enemies. Geo characters are really getting better with the Natlan, as both Kachina and Xilonen appear to be really good and versatile characters so far. If you are interested in Kachina in Genshin Impact, here is everything we know about Kachina’s kit and her best build.

Kachina: Weapon and Element Type

Kachina is a 4-star Geo character wielding a Polearm and she is a decent off-field Sub-DPS. Her kit focuses on entering the Nightsoul Blessing state using her Elemental Skill, which summons her Turbo Twirly. Kachina can either ride the Turbo Twirly or have the Turbo Twirly deal damage by itself. Kachina also completely scales on Defense and is a decently strong character with her best build.

She is a Children of Echoes and grew up surrounded by adorable Tepetlisaurs, shiny gems dug up from the depths, and heroic stories passed down by tribal elders. She was given the name Uthabiti, based on an ancient poem of her tribe.

Kachina Leaked Release Date and Banners

Kachina is rumored to be released in the first phase of the Genshin Impact 5.0 version alongside Mualani, which is expected around August 28, 2024. She is among the three new characters featuring in Genshin Impact 5.0 banners, with the other two being Mualani and Kinich.

Kachina Voice Actors

Kachina’s English voice actor is Kristen McGuire, who is known for voicing Milim Nava and The Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (anime), Hinano Kurahashi in Assassination Classroom (anime), and Rin Toyama in New Game! (anime).

Kachina’s Japanese voice actor is Yurika Kubo, who is known for voicing Kaede Azusagawa in Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai (anime), Hanayo Koizumi in Long Live! (anime), and Tionishia in Monster Musume (anime).

Kachina Leaked Kit and Best Rotation

Kachina summons her Twirly Turbo after using her Elemental Skill button, which also makes her enter the Nightsoul’s Blessing state. After summoning the Twirly Turbo, she can either mount it using her Skill button and deal on-field damage, or leave it as an off-field damage source and switch out, which is the better option.

After using Kachina’s Elemental Burst, Kachina deals AoE Geo Damage and creates a Turbo Drill field, which increases the damage and movement speed of Turbo Twirly, while Kachina is riding it.

• Kachina’s Elemental Skill summons Turbo Twirly and makes her enter the NB state.
• Her Elemental Skill button changes to the mount/dismount button after summoning Turbo Twirly.
• Kachina can either deal damage by mounting Turbo Twirly or swap to other DPS units and deal off-field damage using the Turbo Twirly.
• Her Elemental Burst creates a Turbo Drill field, increasing the damage of the Turbo Twirly while she is riding it.
• Turbo Twirly is considered a Geo Construct.

Kachina Best Artifacts

• 4-piece Scroll of the Embered City’s Hero
• 4-piece Archaic Petra

The upcoming Natlan artifact set, 4-piece Scroll of the Embered City’s Hero is the best Artifact set for Kachina’s build by a big margin. This artifact set makes the wearer regenerate 6 energy when an ally triggers Nightsoul Burst. Furthermore, after the equipping character triggers a reaction related to their Elemental type, all allies gain a 12% Elemental Damage bonus for the reaction-proximate Elemental Types for 15 seconds. This means that triggering Crystallize reactions with Kachina and other allies will empower the allies based on the type of Crystallize reaction triggered, making it perfect for a Natlan Geo sub-DPS like her.

Other than that, the 4-piece Archaic Petra is another decent option for Kachina, until you farm the Scroll of the Embered City’s Hero set pieces properly. This artifact set increases the Geo damage of the character, and increases all party damage upon obtaining Elemental Shard created through a Crystallize reaction for that particular element.

Best Kachina Build: Main and Sub-Stats Priority

Regarding Kachina’s main stat priority, use Defense % Sands, Geo Damage % Goblet, and Defense % Circlet. For Sub-stats, focus on adding Crit Damage and Crit Rate, followed by Energy Regen until you hit 140%, and Defense %.

Genshin Impact Kachina Leaked Talents

• Cragbiter (Normal Attack): Kachina performs up to 4 consecutive Spear strikes using her Normal attack combo. Her Charged Attack consumes Stamina as she lunges forward, dealing damage to enemies along the way. Her Plunge Attack damages opponents along the way and deals AoE damage upon impact.
• Go, Go Turbo Twirly! (Elemental Skill): Kachina summons and rides the Turbo Twirly, gaining 60 Nightsoul points and entering the Nightsoul Blessing state. After entering the NB state, every of Turbo Twirly consumes the Nightsoul points and she exits the state after reaching 0 points. When Turbo Twirly is present, Kachina’s Elemental Skill changes to an option to Mount/Dismount. When present independent of Kachina, it slams the ground at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Geo Damage based on Kachina’s Defense. When Kachina is riding Turbo Twirly, she can control it to move and climb swiftly and use Normal Attacks to slam the ground, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Geo Damage based on Kachina’s Defense. Turbo Twirly disappears once Kachina exits the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, and is considered a Geo Construct. Only one Turbo Twirly can exist on the field at any one time.
• Time to Get Serious (Elemental Burst): Kachina strikes the ground, dealing AoE Geo damage based on her Defense, and creates a Turbo Drill Field. The Field increases Turbo Twirly’s attack AoE and its movement speed when Kachina is riding it. If Kachina’s own Turbo Twirly is present when this is used, Turbo Twirly will be summoned to her side.

Genshin Impact Kachina Leaked Passives

• Boon of Crystal Flame: 20 Stamina is restored when interacting with some harvestable items while in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan. Additionally, this effect will also mark the nearby resources unique to Natlan on the mini-map.
• Night Realm’s Gift: Heart of Unity: After her Nightsoul points are depleted, Kachina switches to consuming Phlogiston to maintain her Nightsoul’s Blessing. While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, she can use Nightsoul Transmission: Kachina, which when the active character is currently sprinting, climbing, in a movement mode caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, makes the following effect trigger when switching to Kachina:
  – Kachina will enter the Nightsoul’s Blessing state and ride Turbo Twirly when taking the field while gaining 30 Nightsoul points. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10 seconds by your own team. Additionally, while in Natlan, Kachina consumes 90% less Stamina when climbing while riding Turbo Twirly.
• Mountain Echoes: When nearby party members trigger a Nightsoul Burst, Kachina’s Geo damage bonus increases by 20% for 12 seconds.
• The Weight of Stone: Turbo Twirly’s Damage is increased by 20% of Kachina’s Defense.

Best Weapons for Kachina

• Deathmatch
• The Rainbow’s Trail
• Favonius Lance
• Staff of Homa
• Primordial Jade Winged-Spear

Deathmatch is the best weapon option for Kachina’s best build as it has a strong bonus effect Crit Rate and increases the Attack of the wielder from the weapon effect. Other than that, the Rainbow’s Trail is another great option for Kachina, which is the new Natlan’s craftable Polearm. Favonis Lance is also a good option. For 5-star weapons, Staff of Homa and Primordial Jade Winged-Spear are the best options.

Kachina Leaked Constellations

• Shards Are Gems Too (C1): When she mounts or dismounts Turbo Twirly, she absorbs nearby Elemental Shards created by Crystallize. Additionally, when a party member picks up such a Shard, 3 Energy will be restored to Kachina. Energy can be restored this way once every 5 seconds.
• Never Leave Home Without… Turbo Twirly (C2): When Kachina uses her Elemental Burst, she regains 20 Nightsoul points. If there is no Turbo Twirly belonging to her on the field, she enters Nightsoul’s Blessing and summons one.
• Improved Stabilizer (C3): Elemental Skill level + 3 up to level 15 max.
• More Foes, More Caution (C4): When there are 1/2/3/4 (or more) opponents within the Turbo Drill Field created by her Elemental Burst, the active character within the field gains 8%/12%/16%/20% increased Defense.
• All I’ve Collected Till Now (C5): Elemental Burst level + 3 up to level 15 max.
• This Time, I’ve Gotta Win (C6): When your active character’s shield is replaced or destroyed for any reason, Kachina deals 200% of her Defense as AoE Geo Damage. This effect can be triggered once every 5 seconds.

Kachina has some decent constellations, with her C1 and C6 being the best options. Her C1 makes her regenerate Energy when allies pick up Elemental Shards created by her Crystallization reaction. Her C6 deals AoE Geo damage to enemies when the active character’s shield is replaced or destroyed, increasing her off-field damage output by a lot.
