With her rather useful kit, Diona is a four-star cryo support unit who can heal, protect, and enhance her companions.Diona's finest weapon is a tie between the Sacrificial Bow and the Favonius Warbow, both of which provide her a much-needed boost to her energy recharge. To improve her healing skills, we advise getting a full set of Maiden Beloved as artifacts, with an emphasis on HP and energy regeneration as stats. See the sections below on weapons and artifacts for further information.We advise improving both her elemental burst and elemental skill simultaneously when she levels up her abilities. You don't have to bother about leveling up her standard attacks if you don't want to since they don't really help you and inflict relatively little damage.

She's rather simple to develop and has a basic skill set that condenses many roles into one slot, giving you more versatility in your team compositions.. Her constellations significantly increase her supporting power, and she also functions admirably as a cryo battery.

How to Make Use of Diona

Diona has really basic abilities that are straightforward to learn. Unless you're attempting an experimental build, you shouldn't depend on her to deliver any kind of damage since her standard attack damage is really low.

Alternatively, to keep Diona's shield up, we usually advise swapping to her and using Icy Paws (hold) as often as you can. This not only negates damage, but also cleanses the shielded character of elemental effects and provides a mobility buff. After using Icy Paws, you may either sprint or swap to a different character to maximize efficiency.Remember that she throws the AoE onto an enemy during her blast. Therefore, charging into her healing circle with an unshielded, low-HP character might be dangerous. Thus, , be sure to align her skill and burst effectively, and create a rhythm in your rotation that works for your playstyle and team composition..

Which weapon suits Diona the best?

The two most viable options for Diona's weapon are the Sacrificial Bow and the Favonius Warbow. With its basic stat, the Favonius Warbow increases Diona's energy recovery. Its elemental particle regeneration also enables her to serve as a charger for troops who aren't cryogenic.However, Sacrificial Bow also has that useful energy recharge stat, and her passive gives her more energy regeneration and longer shield uptime. Sacrificial Bow, whether for Diona or cryo-based friends, is really a superior choice, according to Keqingmains, if you desire more cryo particles.Elegy for the End, is yet another fantastic choice.This increases her energy regeneration and may initiate a teamwide buff. Nonetheless, maintaining the weapon's buff requires considerable technical expertise and experience, since this is a highly contested weapon.
Weapon Effect How to obtain
Sacrificial Bow Base stat: energy recharge
Skill: after you deal damage to an opponent with an elemental skill, the skill has a 40% chance to end its own cooldown. This can only happen once every 30 seconds
Gacha
Favonius Warbow Base stat: energy recharge
Skill: crit hits have a 60% chance to generate a small amount of elemental particles, which regenerate six energy for the character. This can only occur once every 12 seconds
Gacha
Elegy for the End Base stat: energy recharge
Skill: increases elemental mastery by 60. When the equipping character hits an enemy with an elemental skill or elemental burst, they gain a Sigil of Remembrance. You can trigger this effect once every 0.2 seconds, even if the character is not on the field. When you possess four sigils, all of them are consumed and all nearby party members obtain the Millenial Movement: Farewell Song effect for 12 seconds, which increases elemental mastery by 100 and attack by 20%. Once this effect triggers, you don’t gain any new sigils for 20 seconds. Buffs of the same type do not stack
Gacha

Which artifacts fit Diona the best?

If you are the only member of your squad without a complete set of Noblesse Oblige, as it provides a very beneficial team-wide bonus, we usually advise choosing that set. If you want to utilize Diona primarily for healing, then investing in a complete set of Maiden’s Beloved is the ideal choice to maximize her healing potential.
Artifact set Effect How to obtain
Maiden Beloved Two equipped: Increases healing effectiveness by 15%
Four equipped: Elemental skills and bursts increase healing received for all party members by 20% for ten seconds
Valley of Remembrance, Windwail Highland (near the Dawn Winery)
Noblesse Oblige Two equipped: Increases elemental burst damage by 20%
Four equipped: When you use an elemental burst all party members’ attack is increased by 20% for 12 seconds
Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern domain, Minlin, Mt. Aozang

Recommendations for artifact stats

You should strive for all HP% pieces for Diona's primary stats in order to strengthen her shield. We usually advise avoiding using a healing bonus circlet since her shield is considerably more useful than her healing, however there are several circumstances in which it can be helpful.In terms of sub-stats, you should try to raise Diona's energy recharge up to around 170% before aiming for a burst on every cycle. In addition, if your Diona is utilizing the Favonius Bow, try to get some crit rate in there in addition to pumping a ton of HP.Principal statistics:
  • Sands – HP%
  • Goblet – HP%
  • Circlet – HP%
Sub-stats:
  • Energy recharge
  • Crit rate (if using Favonius Bow)
  • HP%
  • HP

Which Diona team compositions are the best?

Diona is a rather versatile healer and shielder that works well in most team compositions.She can serve as a good stand-in for and performs best in freeze and melt teams.The Zhongli of Genshin Impactshould you be utilizing him on a different team or not have him at all.Diona is a good choice for fridge teams at C6, where she may be paired with a hydro unit, a dendro unit, and either an electro or pyro unit because to her substantial elemental mastery bonus.But there are some drawbacks to employing her in conjunction with a hydro and dendro unit. Her Icy Paws target the bloom reaction dendro cores, which is odd since cryo and dendro don't produce an elemental reaction. Since her Icy Paws only create elemental particles when they strike an adversary, this might cause problems with energy recharge.These are a few of our best choices for Diona team competitions that don't need her to be C6: To see each character's unique build guide, click on their symbol. Remember that there is always space for substitutes in many of these team competitions, provided that the components remain the same and the kits have comparable functionality. As an example, you may replace Kazuha with . or VentiKlee out for , sucroseKokomi out for Ayato or Mona, Diluc, etc.

Priority talent

The following should be given top priority when Diona's talents are leveled up:
  • Elemental skill = elemental burst >> normal attack
Diona may be used as a standard support role without requiring any leveling up of her base attack. Though you may prioritize one over the other based on your requirements, you should generally try to enhance her skill and burst at the same time. For example, you might focus burst if you want more healing, or prioritize skill if you need a stronger shield.That is all the information in our build guide for Genshin Impact Diona. See our Honkai Star Rail tier list, for more Hoyo experiences.codes for Honkai Star Rail and the Honkai Star Rail update instructions. Additionally, we have a build for Bailu (Honkai Star Rail). We have a good feeling that her and Diona would get along.
