Kokomi’s abilities
Here are Sangonomiya Kokomi’s abilities, passives, and Constellations:
Normal: | Performs up to three consecutive attacks that take the form of swimming fish, dealing Hydro damage. |
Charged: | Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to deal AoE Hydro damage after a short casting time. |
Plunging: | Gathering the might of Hydro, Kokomi plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Hydro damage upon impact with the ground. |
Kurage’s Oath: | Summons a ‘bake-kurage’ created from water that can heal her allies. Using this skill will apply the Wet status to Sangonomiya Kokomi. |
Bake-Kurage: | Deals Hydro damage to surrounding opponents and heal nearby active characters at fixed intervals. This healing is based on Kokomi’s Max HP. |
Nereid’s Ascension: | The might of Watatsumi descends, dealing Hydro damage to surrounding opponents, before robing Kokomi in a Ceremonial Garment made from the flowing waters of Sangonomiya. |
Ceremonial Garment: | Kokomi’s Normal Attack, Charged Attack, and Bake-Kurage damage are increased based on her Max HP. |
When her Normal and Charged Attacks hit opponents, Kokomi will restore HP for all nearby party members, and the amount restored is based on her max HP. | |
Increases Kokomi’s resistance to interruption and allows her to move on the water’s surface. |
Tamanooya’s Casket: | If Kokomi’s own Bake-Kurage are on the field when she uses Nereid’s Ascension, the Bake-Kurage’s duration will be refreshed. |

At Water’s Edge: | While donning the Ceremonial garment created by Nereid’s Ascension, the final Normal Attack in Kokomi’s combo will unleash a swimming fish to deal 30% of her max HP as hydro damage. This damage is not considered Normal Attack damage. |
The Clouds Like Waves Rippling: | Kokomi gains the following Healing Bonuses with regard to characters with 50% or less HP via the following methods: Kurage’s Oath Bake-Kurage: 4.5% of Kokomi’s max HP. Nereid’s Ascension Normal and Charged Attacks: 0.6% of Kokomi’s max HP. |

Ascension materials
Kokomi’s Ascension materials
Character
You’ll need specific Ascension materials if you want to level up Sangonomiya Kokomi. The Dew of Repudiation and Varunada Lazurite are both dropped by Hydro Hypostases, while the latter can also be looted from Oceanids. Besides those, you’ll also need the following items:
- Sango Pearl
- Spectral Husk/Heart/Nucleus
Sango Pearl can be found around Watatsumi Island, so if you’ve spent much time exploring the area, you’ve likely collected some already. The Spectral items are dropped by Specters, a new enemy type that is exclusive to both the Watatsumi and Seirai islands.
Talents
These are the items you’ll need to ascend Kokomi’s talents:
- Teachings of Transience
- Spectral
- Hellfire Butterfly
- Crown of Insight
The Teachings of Transience—and its variations—can be obtained from the Violet Court domain on Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays while, as mentioned above, the Spectral items are dropped by Specters found on Watatsumi and Seirai island. The Crown of Insight is a reward for upgrading the Frostbearing Tree in Dragonspine or the Sacred Sakura in Inazuma. You can also get it from various seasonal activities, like Midsummer Island Adventure or Thunder Sojourn.
Potentially the most difficult Ascension material to obtain is the Hellfire Butterfly, which is dropped by the La Signora weekly boss at level 70 and above.
