Best Teams for Columbina
Columbina Works Best as a Lunar Reactions Support
| Rating | Team Description |
|---|---|
| Best | ▼ Lunar-Charged Team - With Flins and Ineffa as the damage dealers, both are able to benefit from Columbina's Lunar Reactions buff. - Columbina's long buff duration allows for more flexible rotations. |
| 2nd | ▼ Lunar-Crystallize Team - Zibai is supported by 3 other teammates since there's no compatible team comp with a Sub-DPS. - Illuga and Columbina provide Lunar Reactions buffs while Zhongli shreds RES and provides protection. - Zhongli's slot can be swapped out for another support or Sub-DPS character. |
| 3rd | ▼ Lunar-Bloom Team - Due to the limitations on Dendro characters, this team is ranked lower than other Lunar Reaction team due to its lack of sustain in the best comp. - Columbina and Lauma buff Lunar Bloom DMG while Nahida buffs EM to the DPS character. |
| 4th | ▼ Non-Moonsign Lunar Reaction Team - Since Columbina can enable all Lunar Reactions, she can be used as support for non-Moonsign DPS characters. - Recommended to use a Hydro, Electro or Geo DPS in a Lunar-Charged or Lunar-Crystallize team since Direct Lunar-Bloom damage is only dealt by Nefer and Columbina. |
| 5th | ▼ F2P Lunar-Crystallize Team - For F2P, Noelle can work great as a Lunar-Crystallize DPS since she scales on DEF and can easily generate Crystallize shards. - Illuga can also be used to buff Lunar-Crystallize DMG along with Columbina. |
Columbina is a powerful Lunar Reactions support for Moonsign teams. Her ability to apply Hydro and enable all Lunar Reactions allows for more flexible compositions even though there will be damage loss from the lack of Direct Lunar Reaction DMG dealers.

| Ineffa | FischlOroron | - Fischl can be used to activate Hexerei Secret Rite effect with Sucrose and she'll be able to buff EM while providing great Electro application. - Ororon can be used as Electro Sub-DPS with his effect of proccing an Electro attack when Electro/Lunar-Charged happens. |

| Zhongli | ChioriMonaKokomi | - Chiori can be used as Sub-DPS and speed up rotations. - If using Albedo, bring Mona to allow him to create Silver Isotomas so he can generate shards comfortably. - Kokomi can be used if you want healing and EM buff for Zibai |

| Nefer | No Replacement | - Nefer can't be replaced as a DPS for Lunar-Bloom since no one else is able to deal Direct Lunar-Bloom DMG. - Columbina is able to deal Lunar-Bloom DMG with her Charged Attack but it's still weaker compared to Nefer and EM Columbina in a Bloom team. |
| LaumaNahida | BaizhuCollei | - Baizhu can be used as alternative for buffing Lunar-Bloom DMG and provide healing. - Collei can be used as Dendro Sub-DPS for applying Dendro. |
