[@PluppyYT]

thank you zy0x for using cookie E to heal me from my father’s wrath now I can use Hyperbloom - If Electro is inflicted upon a Dendro Core, the Hyperbloom reaction will be triggered, which transforms the Dendro Core into a Sprawling Shot that homes in on the closest enemy (or ally, if triggered by an enemy/the environment), dealing increased AoE Dendro DMG in a 1m radius on hit to both enemies and players. against my dad

[@fivefourtwo4498]

Truly a father wrath moment

[@Zy0x]

Bloom is the Elemental Reaction triggered by inflicting Dendro on a target that is already affected by Hydro or vice versa. This reaction produces a Dendro Core, which stays on the field for up to 6 seconds, and has different effects based on if Pyro, Electro or neither is applied to it before its duration expires. Only 5 Dendro Cores can exist at a time, and producing more than 5 Dendro Cores will cause the oldest one to expire immediately.

another good f2p weapon option for kuki (for those who lack enough sword billets) is the 3* dark iron sword - it has em stat, the passive gives atk boost to kuki after proccing electro reactions which is kina eh. you can get it from a liyue npc, that is if you haven't already taken and foddered it.

[@jmfe10]

The Key is actually her BiS for Hyperbloom. You can stack the buff very quickly (and if you have C4, even quicker). To anyone who got baited by the weapon banner and doesn't know what to do: use the key and look for EM substats on your flower and feather, followed by HP% substats on sands/goblet/circlet. It's the only weapon that can surpass the Freedom Sworn's EM stat it also ties into your HP scaling.

[@4roryvt]

Also a stronger weapon the more EM the rest of your comp can use. For example, it will be much stronger using Nahida as Dendro instead of DMC, or with Kazuha/Sucrose (I haven't run the numbers, but with the strong HP scaling, it might be BiS for Burst Aggravate Kuki)

I've been using Kuki for aggravate teams :) I have her on a build to buff my Keqing's damage, though. I accidentally got Key of Khaj-Nisut (only 17 pity, so it didn't hurt too much) and eventually decided to give it to her. After playing around with that build (Tenacity full HP) I think it is mandatory to have her C4 if you're going to use it. It allows you to Skill → 1 Normal → Bust to get all 3 stacks on the sword's passive. This is because the damage from her C4 counts as elemental skill damage. So you activate her skill while close to an enemy for the first stack, use a normal attack for the second stack, then get the third stack from the skill's first pulse as the burst is activating. Without Shinobu's C4 the rotation for activating the passive on the Key takes to long and it doesn't really work out. I was going to comment on your editing style in this video even if you didn't ask :) I immediately noticed it was different when you included the video on the side while explaining the skill. I really feel like that helps to illustrate what it is you're talking about, so I would say you're improving in this regard. :D I think including text on screen is a great idea, even when it's not for correcting stuff you say. A really common thing I rewatch your guides for is to decide how much ER I should use on specific characters before I get around to testing a new build on them. It's useful to have a ballpark idea of where I need to be before I start experimenting. Being able to more quickly find that information (and other information) would be helpful. Though, I'm not sure it would help your analytics since it would reduce watch time. EDIT: Also, no Dark Iron Sword mention lmao

[@leandrof.m6112]

If u have Kuki C4, u can stack the buff from Key of Khaj- Nisut in something like 2 secs. Just use E, normal hit (a thunder will hit the enemy stacking again) and the ring will hit just after. This weapon is her bis atm for sure.

Great guide! I went from ex-shrine-maidenless to gigachad c6 Shinobu on Cyno's banner and I'm so glad.

I'm still surprised at the hyperbloom damage she does only at lv 80/80 with 830 EM and E lv 11 (I'll ascend her after finishing Nahida)

[@jla5a]

I've built the ayato kuki traveler kazuha team while ago and I've been constantly testing in the abyss , it's really a veeeeery powerful team and fun to play , and as a small tip I recommend to try to affect the traveler's burst with electro not hydro that way it keeps affecting the enemies with dendro like crazy and actually gives more hyperblooms per rotation.

[@henrymorales9584]

I've heard that due to ICD, the electro infusion does not apply more dendro than hydro infusion. It looks like the enemies are being hit more by the traveler's burst, but it just does more damage; it just doesn't apply extra dendro aura.

I think you hit all the high points in this guide! I'm almost done building my Kuki and can't wait to run her in Ayato hyperbloom in the abyss. You were really torturing the KZbin compression algorithm in that showcase. Even on 1080p it was hard to see all the numbers. So far I've been running Kuki in overworld/domains in a "companion xp farm team" which is Kuki, Collei and Kokomi with one flex, initially Jean (but it feels pretty dumb running 3 healers) and now Heizou. It works pretty well cause everything is tied to elemental skills, but obviously Ayato-Kazuha-Nahida will be an absolutely insane team! I have had so much fun with Kuki lately that I gave her Freedom Sworn, and put Xiphos on Kazuha (he needed a bit of ER anyway).

As long as you have Kuki c4 then the Key of Khaj-Nisut is great. E-NA-wait for E to hit a second time(less than 2 seconds from cast) and your good. With this, at least in a hyperbloom team, you can hybrid HP and EM on your artifact main stats. Even just R1 is good, but the higher refined the better of course.

[@architsenpai]

"Key of Khaj Nisut" is very good for kuki as it gives both lot of HP% and EM I used it on my kuki who is running 4p tenacity with triple EM her EM goes above 1000 even without running any em base set like gilded/wanderers

With that being said, I'll see you guys in the next one, peace.

[@sephirian688]

Seeing the Ayato team get to shine is amazing. I’ve been preaching this comp since dendro was released. Ayato’s massive amounts of wide spread and consistent hydro application and Kuki’s easy to use reliable electro application makes it seamless. Add in Kazuha or Sucrose (Kazuha being the better option) and the only limiting factor is dendro application. My question for Zy is is it better to activate the increased aoe or the faster attack rate of Travelers burst? I’m pulling Nahida so it doesn’t really matter but it may be important for people who aren’t. To my understanding hitting Traveler’s burst with electro makes it attack faster but it doesn’t do anything for their ICD, so I go for the bigger aoe.

[@Ilovechickenssss]

AGGRAVATE doesn't really need fast application so burst + hydro is better for enemies that move but if they don't move burst + electro should be better since traveller will spread more As for BLOOM personally burst + electro is better cuz bloom has a hard time making bloom seeds I might be wrong

[@sephirian688]

@@Ilovechickenssss The only reason I go for the bigger aoe is specifically because of Ayato. Between the reach of his NAs and his burst if you leave Traveler’s burst at it’s standard size it leaves you with a big gap in where blooms can appear. To me without the bigger aoe it feels like you’re just playing a bad Ayato hyper carry team since maybe 1/3 of the damage is taking place outside of Travler’s range. If you’re using a Xingqiu, Yelan, or Mona then I would agree with you. Edit: I could be wrong though, which is why I asked lol

[@Ilovechickenssss]

@@sephirian688 that's actually makes sense but it'll still hit the enemy since we're supposed to be close to the enemy right?it's better to have hydro on opponent then get a core near you so kuki can hyperbloom instead of making a bloom far away (+ the enemy gonna run towards you + the seeds can't explode if it's hyperbloom) Edit: I edited this a million times lmao

Kind of worth noting that the hit from Shinobu C4 counts as elemental skill damage and if you happen to have the Key then you only need to stay on field for 1 tick if you also trigger the C4 hit, making it a lot easier to manage

[@rainbowman8923]

Key of Khaj-Nisut is actually BiS for a C4 Kuki (E-auto-Eproc or E-auto-Q). My ~39,950hp Kuki gets at least 220 EM which is higher than the other swords. Bonus is that it gives EM to other party members. This build doesn't sacrifice healing either since it gives a hefty amount of HP and EM making your Kuki durable without much compromise to the hyperbloom damage it can deal. (Note: I don't recommend pulling for the Key though)

[@oouuuhhggtt]

not sure if anyone said this, but the dark iron sword is actually pretty good for kuki! it’s a 3 star but at 90 it has 141 elemental mastery and the passive increases kukis attack upon causing an overload, superconduct, electro-charged, quicken, aggravate, hyperbloom, or electro infused swirl reaction !

[@Lyr0n]

[@GodOfEternityForever]

you can get of a max 791 em from gilded dreams with goblet, timepiece and circlet em main stat. that is without the weapon, and substat from ur flower and feather. so, if your making a hyperbloom kuki the best artifact set is of course gilded dreams and weapon iron sting for f2p people. if you are to lazy to grind for kukis weapon, you can get a free sword that has em as main stat in liyue from chen the sharp. your kuki will be even better with constellations (if you can get some) the total with iron sting, gilded dream (all stacks), all em main stat on artifacts will equal up to 956 em, and with sucrose passive is 1006 em (you can get 1000 with substats on flower and feather if lucky enough if u dont have sucrose) thats my tip if you want as much em on kuki, although a hp goblet and er circlet could be better if not wanting to focus on em too much.

[@siddiqhh]

Recently tried Raiden EM hyperbloom and pleasantly enjoyed the playstyle. Next I watched Kuki hyperbloom and now I have lvl 90 Cookie with lvl 3 dark iron sword and just EM main stats artifacts not caring of the substats. Cleared level 12 spiral abyss with her.

what i did to my kuki to be the main Hyperbloom damage dealer is. Her having a 2pc Gilded Dreams and 2pc Wanderer. Then have a support (Beidou/AnyDendro) equip full Gilded. As Deepwood Memories 4pc set, it is also crucial to have it. as it reduces the dendro resistance as you apply them. You can expect to roughly 35k with this on c0 Kuki

[@t0q14s9]

While it is important to remember that the most important thing with the characters you use is that you enjoy playing them, if youre new and want some tips on how to improve your damage it would be advisable to remove pyro from your team altogether. If you used alhaitham as your main dps character, anyone geo, anemo or electro as a bonus slot that doesnt interrupt your dendro and electro reactions, a second dendro character who is using the deepwood memories set (for example dendro main character, collei, yaoyao or nahida if you have her and then finally kuki shinobu. Alternatively you could try a hyperbloom team with the same members except with a hydro like xingqiu or yelan if you have her as your second free slot. Again this is only a suggestion tho.

[@nou1579]

My favorite hyperbloom team is this extremely budget friendly team with kuki, traveler, collei, and barbara. Stacks Kuki with EM (im currently still using 2pc gilded + 2pc wanderer), 4pc deepwood on traveler for dendro resistance shred, 4pc instructor on collei for an extra 120 EM, and barbara just use whatever with sacrifical fragment for somewhat permanent hydro application. With dendro resonance and the instructor set effect my kuki can get around 1.2k EM, and this can still go higher since she's still lv 79 with lv 80 iron sting with 1pc of 4star EM sands.

Now I just get to have the satisfaction of seeing "waifu" become "meta" and the sense of self satisfaction is so satisfying. My main team has been kuki, kazuha, yelan, and lumine ever since sumeru launched and I can't get over how fun it is to play.

Kuki became my favorite 4 star since she was released. Prior to Dendro, I use her in electro-charge team with ToM for 100% uptime buff. But with Dendro, I use her for hyperbloom and enjoyed her playstyle more with gilded dreams. Will probably try ToM with triple EM to make her a hybrid hyperbloom trigger, healer, and an atk buffer, and EM buffer with Khaj Nisut. My favorite team with her is Ayato, DMC, and Albedo. Found myself playing this more than classic meta teams.

[@siddiqhh]

Ayato Fischl Kuki Nahida in the first phase of spiral abyss is so good. Balanced between aoe and single target damage.

[@FangirlKazu]

Dear Zy0x, All Shinobu guides I found on KZbin explain what the best aggravate and what the best hyperbloom build for her is. In my case, though, I would love to switch her dendro teams, without farming different artifacts for her... I understand that the mentioned builds are the "optimal" ones but do you have a recommendation for a "hybrid" build or do you think a hyperbloom build could also work well in an aggravate team or the other way around, even if its not "perfect"? Thanks a lot! Kazu

[@astro-byun]

loved kuki since release and her hyperbloom is literally CARRYING me rn through abyss. i just got xingqiu and it's all working perfectly

[@nissraaa]

i just finishes raising her artifacts and farming naku weed omg she's so pretty I'm glad her kit is god tier now with dendro

[@Kakavasha29]

Dont forget spread teams cos kuki is pretty good paired with Tighnari (mainly since I'm using slingshot in tighnari so I have to be close to enemy for optimal dmg)

[@yellowintherealm9596]

Black Iron Sword is a free three star sword with EM substats, a bit less than iron sting but if you don't want to use a billet that's actually a decent alternative.

[@Zy0x]

black iron is ok yeah ! i just can't recommend leveling that vs iron sting for ur account esp since sting is also viable on other characters like Keqing

[@yellowintherealm9596]

@@Zy0x Yo! Yeah that's fair, btw it seems we are gonna get a free EM weapon in 3.3 with 165 EM substat at lvl.90 (the same as iron sting) and the passive seems interesting, I guess a fine addition to our collections.

[@SparkleNatsu]

Perfect timing! I was literally watching the old guide earlier today 😆

[@theskysaphir]

Nice guide! Perfect timing ;)

[@Guttins]

I plan on using her with keqing, nahida and kazuha. Currently in love with aggravate

[@ShuckleII]

Pros: You get an ER recommendation. Cons: You might not get an ER recommendation tomorrow.

[@elknolasshrineofraja3966]

🌸😌It would be a revisit to a character whom was always great, but misunderstood by a meta two-steps behind HoYoVerse and without the tools to unlock her kit.😌🌸

[@Myron_The_Slavicwolf]

I really wish you made this when Cyno's banner was around, as I was using Kuki when I got her up until now.

[@The_NPC20]

I prayed to Jesus with my christian buddie to pull for this character today. And guess what, I was beyond happy and screamed at the top of my lungs thanking the lord in the middle of my classroom after getting her.

[@_xstarbutterfly]

Kuki became my main dmg dealer now with Dendro mc, Xq, Kazuha hahahah currently dealing 30k+ per seed!

[@undeadicus]

For my Hyperbloom I run Candace, Kuki, Collei, and Xingqui. Candace C4- main dps, heart of depths 4set and the missive windspear, Kuki C0- gilded dreams 4set full EM with iron sting, Collei C4- Deepwood 4set with sacrifical bow, Xingqui C6- Emblem 4set pure atk with sacrificial sword, I find that this team does solid with it being full melee, with collei only really using her E and Q then swapping out. Her dendro app with her passives and C4 actually isn't half bad... I just refuse to level MC lol. Candace infusion does get decent cleave if enemies are stacked up and she's tanky enough to just stand there swinging away making cores while kuki pops them. They can clear abyss just fine, and it's a lot of fun to play!

[@K1Crawford]

Went with Ayato+DMC+Candace+Kuki (Kuki is running instructor set and does have the Key sword otherwise i'd be using R5 iron sting) This team setup is just.... fun. It feels like a fresh way to play. I like using the Instructor set to help buff Dendro Main Character as well, who is running Deepwood. Whilst this isn't the most amount of damage that i have seen my Ayato do (Previously had Ayato with Yunjin+Xingqiu+Ganyu/Anemo Character), I'm quite enjoying this Kuki team a lot

[@osiris9918]

Love the new editing style

[@td2972]

You really made it clear in this vidéo great job ! I do run the hyperbloom team, but one thing You missed to explain is juste the little formula for the dammage of the hyperbloom réaction. I know You credit another vid for that, but the formula is really easy and showing the numbers will surprise ppl ! Anyway thanks You for confirming the build i ve done with kuki 😊

[@JohnDiggle21]

I was already building kuki due to Sevy's video on this but its always nice to get more info from Zy0x

[@FM-on4mx]

I found her to be pretty efficient on a hybrid CRIT/HP/HP TOTM build as a aggravate support for my Yae, using tenacity with about 47k HP 50/150 crit and around 300 EM. I got spooked by the key so I run that weapon on her giving my team around 95 EM when I get the passive on as wel as healing and 20% attack from TOTM passive. She still can do decent burst damage (enough to kill trash mobs on abyss 12-1) while doing 4k healing ticks. Tried a full HP build and while it was fun seeing her wit 58k hp and doing big healing ticks, her crit was abysmal so her burst didn't do much damage.

[@GuranPurin]

I got to Jade Cutters while pulling for Key of Khaj-Nisut. Gave one to Shinobu~ I'm enjoying her so much more built for Electro DMG over a 4 Tenacity set,

[@hakeemflanders5546]

TYSM for this, im building Kuki and love seeing vids on her

[@Crampanula]

Just started using her with Nahida and Childe. She isn’t even properly built, but omg the damage.

[@jackal8858]

me here after rolling for pjc but got the cricket bat instead and now pulled kuki from the grave.

[@ravenger2445]

I was about to YT search how to improve my Kuki. I then got lost in the YT recommendation page, and this popped up.

[@hajrakhan2129]

TY finally decided to use kuki because I need an electro healer for dendro teams!

[@khoufo]

Actually the key is the BS for kuki giving her and teamates EM since it give huge hp substat + kuki assend with hp the EM she get from the key is more than any 4 star EM sword even on 3 em main stat and no hp substat with hp substats it can give more em than freedom . For the stack if you have c4 you can get all 3 of them in 1 combo e auto q . The c4 dmg count as skill dmg and give 1 stack . Hope it help
