Genshin Impact 2.1 leaks: Kokomi’s skill scaling information, was she nerfed?

In the most recent leaks for Genshin Impact version 2.1, one of the most unexpected was the information about the new Hydro character, Sangonomiya Kokomi’s skill scaling. She’s supposed to be the game’s next 5-star healer, but her insane scalings that were posted on Honey Impact suggested otherwise.

How does Kokomi’s skill scaling work?

HP scaling is nothing new for healers in Genshin, but according to her Elemental Skill description, both her heal and her amage would scale from HP. For reference, her skill is similar to Mona’s, but also heals allies close to its area. This means she would be able to use it and leave the field for another DPS to enter.

With such high numbers and Kokomi’s natural high HP, she would instantly be the strongest character in the game. With around 30000 HP (which wouldn’t be hard for her to get), she would be able to deal around 33k damage with each tick with a lv 6 Talent. For 12 seconds. While ALSO healing the party.

The discussion about her being on a new level of powercreeping made the leaker abc64 (who recently announced that he’ll stop doing leaks) post about it, correcting some of the misinformation.

According to abc64, the description on Honey Impact matches the in-game one, but the damage scales only from Atk, just like most skills in the game.

Was she instantly nerfed? Actually, no. The description wasn’t right from the beginning, and miHoYo should quickly fix it in a few updates to the beta. Since she’s a healer, she’s probably not supposed to deal that much damage.

Is nice to notice that her Burst description actually matches the in-game effect, so after using it, she will deal some damage from her HP scaling, but not as much as we thought she would.

She will be a very strong healer and great for applying Hydro, but she won’t set a new bar for OP as Ganyu, Xiao and Hu Tao did.
