What Does Kirara’s Elemental Skill Do?

Kirara’s Elemental Skill, Meow-teor Kick, deals Dendro damage and creates a Dendro shield that absorbs incoming damage based on her maximum health. If you press and hold the Elemental Skill button for Meow-teor Kick, Kirara creates a shield around herself and enters the Urgent Neko Parcel state.

The Urgent Neko Parcel state does Dendro damage when Kirara bumps into a target. This can happen once every 0.5 seconds. Kirara’s movement speed, climbing speed, and jumping power also increase. The state lasts for 10 seconds but can be cancelled.

What Are Kirara’s Passive Abilities?

Kirara also has the Timely Bedazzlement and Cat’s Creeping Carriage passive abilities. Timely Bedazzlement increases her Elemental Skill damage by 0.4% and Elemental Burst damage by 0.3% for every 1000 max HP that she has. Cat’s Creeping Carriage prevents animals that produce Fowl, Raw Meat, and Chilled Meat from being startled when Kirara is in the party.

What Does Kirara’s Elemental Burst Do?

Her Elemental Burst is called Secret Art: Surprise Dispatch. This sends out a parcel that does AoE Dendro damage. Once it explodes, it will turn into multiple Cat Grass Cardamoms, which will explode when they come into contact with opponents. If they do not come into contact with enemies, then they will explode after a short period of time and deal AoE Dendro Damage.

What Do Kirara’s Constellations Do?

• C1: An extra Cat Grass Cardamom is created per 8000 maximum HP when Secret Art: Surprise Dispatch is used. A maximum of four extra Cat Grass Cardamoms can be created.
• C2: In her Urgent Neko Parcel state, if Kiara crashes into party members, she will grant them Critical Transport Shields. This has 40% damage absorption of the regular shields. They will absorb Dendro damage 250% more effectively. Critical Transport Shields last for 12 seconds and can be triggered once on each character every 10 seconds.
• C3: Increases the level of Meow-teor Kick by 3.
• C4: When an active character that is protected by a shield of safe transport or critical transport shield hits an opponent with normal, charged, or plunging attacks, Kirara will do a coordinated attack with the character using a Small Cat Grass Cardamom. This will do 200% of her attack as Dendro damage. This is considered Elemental Burst damage and can be triggered once every 3.8 seconds.
• C5: Increases the level of Secret Art: Surprise Dispatch by 3.
• C6: When Kirara uses her Elemental Skill or Burst, all party members will gain a 12% elemental damage bonus for 15 seconds.

What Is Kirara’s Role In Genshin Impact?
