Guide to Citlali in Genshin impact — a shield-buffer of the Cryo element, using a catalyst as a weapon. During combat, the heroine protects allies with a dense frost barrier and deals ice damage to targets with the help of a summoned creature.

In the build, we will consider what characteristics scale the shield's strength and how to maintain it on allies, as well as effectively use Sitlali's damage-dealing abilities, which have the Night Spirit attribute. Due to her skills, the heroine is a good support for Pyro and Hydro characters who play through reactions with Cryo.

Sitlali is an extremely erudite shaman from the Mictlan tribe, who has a close connection with the lands of the Kingdom of Night. Many call the girl "grandmother Itztlan", which she resents, but she herself does not hesitate to use this expression once again. According to Mavuika, Sitlali is fond of novels and prefers to sit at home, not daring to use her potential to become the head of the tribe.

The Story of Citlali (Biography)

Sitlali in Genshin Impact is a genius who values ​​solitude and the ability to completely surrender to her thoughts. Even her fellow tribesmen from the Mictlan tribe, the Lords of the Night Wind, cannot accurately predict where the girl is. Sitlali has a passion for reading novels and does not know how to drink alcohol at all. After drinking alcohol, the heroine practically does not watch her language and can say what she really thinks, but previously did not dare to voice it. Sitlali prefers not to talk about her real age, although Mavuika mentioned that she has not dared to take the place of the tribe's leader for 200 years.

Sitlali not only subtly senses the line between the real world and the Kingdom of Night, but also skillfully transfers energy from one space to another. Thus, thanks to her efforts, it was possible to obtain a special tool that allowed them to find the soul of the hero Natlan and learn about the location Kachinas. Sitlali is engaged in education Ororona and initiates the withdrawn guy into the basics of the special techniques of the Lords of the Night Wind. She worries about her successor, her excessive concern sometimes grows into guardianship, as if Ororon really is her grandson. In turn, the guy affectionately calls Citlali "grandmother".

The development of Sitlali's story can be found in her Legends Quest "The Truth about the Battle of the Seven Flowers".

Characteristics of Sitlali: what increases with elevation

As Sitlali's level increases, her basic stats increase: health, defense, and attack power. At the ascension stages, she will be able to increase mastery of the elements heroines. The value of this characteristic directly affects the strength of shields. The attached table shows all the basic indicators depending on the level of pumping:

Citlali's abilities

Sitlali's skills imply the heroine's implementation as a shielder and/or a sub-damager of the squad, which reduces the resistance of enemies and hangs a stable Cryo status. Sitlali's E-class accumulates points, which allows you to enter the state of the Blessing of the Night Spirit and get additional opportunities to implement reactions associated with Cryo. To a greater extent, the girl shows herself better in the position of a full-fledged support than a sub-DD, protecting allied heroes from incoming damage with a dense frost shield.

Basic skills (active skills)

We will take a detailed look at the abilities of Sitlali and her constellation, indicate the rollbacks and dependence of various skills on the characteristics of the heroine. We will also talk about passive skills, accumulation and spending of Night Spirit points.

Spiritual Vessel of Shadow Capture (Normal, Charged, Falling Attack)

Source of damage: Attack Power.

Normal attack: up to three attacks on the enemy using Cryo damage.

Charged Attack: Activates the aiming mode, allowing you to choose the direction of the Frost Star's flight, which deals ice damage to the enemy upon impact. Stamina is consumed to activate.

Plunging Attack: merged with the Cryo element, turns into a sphere and descends to the ground. Upon landing, it deals Cryo damage to a small area around it.

Dark Star of Morning Frost (Elemental Skill)

Rollback: 16 seconds

Shield duration: 20 seconds

Night Spirit Points: gains 24 when activated, consumes 8 per sec. Maximum up to 100 points.

Summoned creature damage source: Attack Power.

Shield Strength Source: mastery of the elements.

Sitlali summons the Opal Shield and the Obsidian Tzitzimitl, Itzpapa. Activating the skill will deal Cryo damage with the Night Spirit stat in a small radius around the heroine. The Opal Shield's damage absorption efficiency depends on Sitlali's Elemental Mastery (ice damage is blocked with 250% efficiency). After the barrier is activated, the heroine gains 24 Night Spirit points.

Itzpapa:

• Follows the active character.
• If Sitlali has at least 50 Night Spirit, Itzpapa gains the White Flame status and begins to spend 8 points per second. The effect allows him to summon a Frost Hurricane that follows the hero and deals ice damage to enemies in the area of ​​effect with the Night Spirit characteristic.
• When the Night Spirit points run out, Itzpapa loses White Flame and Citlali leaves the Night Spirit Blessing state.

Decree of the luminaries (explosion of the elements)

Rollback: 15 seconds

Energy required: 60 units.

Source of damage: Attack Power.

Night Spirit Glasses (NS): Gain 24 points per Ice Storm; 3 points per Skull Vessel explosion.

Summons Spirit Vessel Skulls and creates an ice storm in the area in front of him, dealing Cryo damage with the Night Spirit attribute. There can be no more than 3 Skulls on the battlefield. After a while, the summoned Spirit Vessels explode, dealing Cryo damage in the area with the Night Spirit attribute and restoring 3 ND points to Sitlali.

Sitlali's Special Jump (Alternate Movement)

Double-tapping jump will launch you into the air and hover briefly before switching to flight mode. In Natlan, this maneuver will use up your phlogiston bar instead of stamina.

The order of leveling talents

Elemental Skill (E) > Elemental Burst (Q) > Basic Attack (optional).

1. Elemental Skill is Sitlali's main skill when pumping as a shielder and sub-DD. Increasing the skill level affects not only the damage dealt by Izpapa, but also the strength of the created barrier. During the battle, the heroine often resorts to using this skill. The damage dealt has minor differences in percentage, but the shield density has more significant scales. When using Sitlali's build as a defense hero for a squad, it makes sense to raise this ability to level 10.
2. Elemental Burst is the second most valuable ability for realizing the potential of a secondary damage dealer. In a shield build, Sitlali's ultimate is unlikely to be able to deal much damage to targets, so in this case, when leveling, you can stop at level 6. If you build Sitlali as a secondary damage dealer, it is still better to raise it to level 8.
3. Basic attacks - do not represent much value for the heroine, can be ignored.

Passive skills

Sitlali's skills that work passively and do not require activation in combat:

Talent	What gives
Songs of the Hidden Mystery	When Nightspirit Outburst is activated in areas with phlogiston mechanics (Natlan), 20 units of phlogiston are restored to the general bar. The effect does not work in dungeons and the Spiral Abyss.
Gift of the Night Realm: Mirrors, Smoke, and Flickering Winds	In areas with phlogiston mechanics, Citlali is able to use Night Spirit Transfer. When switching characters while in flight, the heroine will jump and use the power of the Tzitzimitl made of white obsidian to begin to float in the air. This effect can be activated once every 10 seconds. While holding aim, Sitlali will enter the Spirit Talker state. This effect allows interaction with graffiti and Night Spirit symbols. The rules for interacting with objects are similar to the Ictomisaur skills. While holding Jump, Sitlali will spend 75 stamina and jump. In areas with Phlogiston mechanics, 5 Phlogiston is spent first to perform a higher jump. Holding Attack while in the air will allow you to enter Aim Mode and perform Charged Attacks, spending either Phlogiston or Stamina. When performing Charged Attacks in Natlan, Sitlali will first spend 20 Phlogiston.
Five days of cold rain	While Itzpapa (creatures with elemental skill) is on the battlefield, when allies activate Freeze or Melt, the Pyro and Hydro resistance of affected enemies is reduced by 20% for 12 sec. Citlali also restores 16 Night Spirit every 8 sec.
Starry robe of the white butterfly	The damage of Itzpapa's Frost Storm, the elemental skill of Black Star of Frost, is increased by 90% of Sitlali's Elemental Mastery. The damage of the Ice Storm from the elemental explosion of Decree of the Luminaries is increased by 1200% of Sitlali's Elemental Mastery. When party members activate Night Spirit Flash, Sitlali recovers 4 Night Spirit.

Constellations

You can see all the constellations of Citlali in the attached table:

Name	<font><font>Materials</font></font>
1: Sharp Blades of Senzon Mimishkoa	When using the elemental skill "Black Frost Star" while Itzpapa is on the battlefield, Citlali gains 10 levels of Star Blades. When an ally deals damage, 1 level of Star Blades is consumed, increasing damage dealt by 200% of Citlali's Elemental Mastery. Whenever a nearby character activates a Freeze or Melt reaction, Sitlali gains an additional 3 levels of Star Blades every 8 seconds. Using an elemental skill resets the accumulated and remaining levels of Star Blades. While jumping, aiming, or performing a charged attack in mid-air, Phlogiston consumption is reduced by 45%.
2: Path of the Heart Eater	Sitlali's Elemental Mastery is increased by 125, and allies' MS under Opal Shield is increased by 250. When using the skill, active characters in co-op mode also receive a shield. The passive talent Five Days of Cold Rain is buffed: When Izpapa is on the battlefield and allies activate Freeze or Melt, Pyro and Hydro resistance is further reduced by 20% for 12 seconds.
3: Cloud Serpent's Feather Crown	Increases elemental skill level by 3. Max level is 15.
4: Spiritual Skull of the Death Cheator	When the elemental skill is active, hitting enemies with Frost Hurricane creates the opportunity to create an additional skull-spirit vessel. The explosion of the created skull deals Cryo damage over an area with the Night Spirit characteristic at 1800% of Sitlali's Elemental Mastery, and also restores 16 ND points and 8 energy every 8 sec. Such damage is not considered an elemental explosion.
5: Nemontemi's Curse	Increases Elemental Burst level by 3. Max level is 15.
6: The Secret Treaty of Teoitztak	When summoned by the Elemental Skill, Itzpapa is permanently in the White Flame state and does not exit it when the Night Spirit points are depleted. Instead, Itzpapa absorbs all ND points, and for each point spent in this way, Sitlali gains 1 stack of Secret Law. The maximum amount of Secret Law that can be gained is 40. For each level, nearby heroes gain 1,5% bonus Pyro and Cryo damage, and the damage dealt to Sitlali is increased by 2,5%. When Itzpapa leaves the battlefield or the Elemental Skill is refreshed, all levels of Secret Law are lost.

The best constellations of Sitlalli are - С1, С2 и С6.

• first constellation Allows Sitlali to become a full-fledged buffer for the squad and increase the damage of the main damage dealer. This constellation is best implemented within teams with the elements of Pyro and Hydro.
• Second constellation makes her an even more useful support, as it additionally reduces enemy resistance to Pyro and Hydro elements. In addition, Sitlali will receive a bonus MS, which, when the last passive is opened, will affect the damage dealt by the explosion of the element. A nice bonus will be the ability to protect allies in co-op mode with a barrier.
• sixth constellation eliminates the need to accumulate Night Spirit points for the stable operation of the summoned creature Sitlali, which deals damage to enemies during the operation of the protective barrier. Instead, all accumulated ND points will be converted into Pyro and Cryo damage, and also buff the damage of the heroine herself.

How to play as Citlali

Despite Sitlali's potential as a sub-damage dealer and reactor, the gameplay for the heroine as a DD and support does not have any striking differences due to the need to accumulate Night Spirit points to activate Izpapa. Even with the sixth const, it is much more profitable to stick to the usual shield rotation due to the peculiarities of summoning a creature that deals Cryo damage.

Rotation

Procedure: start a turn for buffers or Sitlali herself > apply a shield with an elemental skill (E) > return to further squad rotation or, if Sitlali has an elemental explosion (Q), use it > continue team rotation.

1. If necessary, Sitlali can either start a rotation to protect allies or join in the process. Entering a battle for the heroine in any case should begin with hanging a shield through elem. skill with entering the state of Blessing with the call of Izpapa.
2. Continue the squad rotation with the inclusion of various positions, be it buffing supports or a damage dealer. During this time, you need to wait for the accumulation of ultimate Sitlali. In the process, the heroine's normal attacks can be used to inflict the status, which have a constant Cryo infusion due to the use of a catalyst as a weapon.
3. If necessary, upgrade the shield behind Sitlali. At this point, you need to resort to explosion of the elements heroine, dealing Cryo damage with the ND attribute and summoning skulls-vessels of the spirit. Explosions of the skulls will allow you to regenerate additional Night Spirit points and put Itzpapa into the White Flame state, in which he begins to spend ND and deal Cryo damage to enemies.
4. Return to squad rotation with a summoned creature with Night Spirit's Blessing and the ability to use various Cryo-based reactions.

Advantages and disadvantages of Sitlali

Having understood Sitlali's abilities and the nuances of her mechanics, we can deduce both the pros and cons of the heroine:

Advantages	Disadvantages
Since Sitlali is a Cryo-shield, is capable of closing many reactions (except Dendro) With the ice element it is easier to build a squad rotation with successive statuses on enemies to deal more damage to targets.	Noticeably inferior in shield effectiveness, which is why the same Zhongli still looks much more advantageous for playing within various teams in the position of defensive support.
Can become a carrier of the Natlan buff set (Scroll of the Hero of the Burnt City), which will increase the elemental damage of the entire squad. It is important to remember that the effects of these artifacts do not stack.	Greater focus on playing within a limited number of teams with Hydro and Pyro damage dealers. Playing with other characters is possible, but only for the named elements will the 20% resistance reduction from the passive work.
It makes the process of exploring Natlan much easier and can regenerate phlogiston points while traveling to places with appropriate mechanics.	Traced assembly complexity if you want to keep the heroine's damage high, since Sitlali requires a large number of balanced characteristics.
Strengthens squads with Hydro and Pyro DD ability to reduce the resistance of targets during reactions related to these elements. In addition, Sitlali benefits from accumulating Night Spirit points to maintain Itzpapa's active state.	As a full-fledged buffer, she reveals herself with the presence of C1-C2 constellations and her signature weapon. Before acquiring everything necessary, the heroine will show herself better only in the position of a support shielder.

Leveling up Citlali

Let's look at everything that Citlali needs: ascension items from bosses, talent books and other resources.

Elevations

The stages of Citlali's ascension will require various resources from the territory of Natlan:

• Splinters, fragments, pieces precious jade Shivada - Cryo material dropped by world and weekly bosses: Signora, Azhdaha, childe, wolf lord, Flock of vishaps of the depths, Primo Geovishap, cryo fern, Spiritually Speaking Hermit, Magu kenki, Aeonblight Drake, Perpetual Mechanical Array, cryo hypostasis.

• Tyrant Fang, Adult and Young Fangs - Drop material Saurians Natlana.
• 420 000 Mora and 425 hero experience.

Best Sitlali Builds in Genshin Impact

Within teams, Sitlali can take the position of both a support shielder and a sub-damage dealer with Cryo damage to targets. In most cases, it is much easier to realize the support potential, maintaining a balance of characteristics mastery of the elements и energy recovery, than to try to get stable damage from Sitlali.

As a damage dealer, Sitlali becomes a very demanding character, requiring expensive weapons and a great artifact set. Typically, this requirement requires farming one artifact dungeon continuously for a long time until the perfect set pieces appear.

Recommended characteristic values

Due to the presence of sub-DD and shield potential, two alternative builds can be considered, differing in their focus on defense and buffing the squad or closing reactions on the battlefield with increased damage to targets. Let's highlight the main necessary characteristics of Sitlali, which will be required in the two builds being composed.

• Elemental Mastery (MS) — the characteristic affects the strength of the heroine's shield and the damage dealt during an elemental explosion, as well as the damage of Izpapa, provided that the last passive talent is activated.
• Energy recovery (VE) — due to the expensive ult, which is very effective for accumulating ND, it is necessary to look for this mark in the additional characteristics. The process of collecting Night Spirit points directly affects the work of Izpapa, which absorbs the accumulated stacks to inflict Cryo damage on targets.

Stats such as attack power, crit damage and chance are secondary for Sitlali and are of great value only for a build for the role of an auxiliary damage dealer. Despite this, even for a sub-DD it is necessary to maintain a balance between MS and HE.

Support assembly

The build for Sitlali support should look like this:

Optimal stat values ​​for Shield Sitlali:

• Elemental Mastery: from 550-600 units and above. Further development depends on the equipped weapon.
• Energy recovery: about 190-200%.
• ATK: from 1600 units
• Crete. chance/damage: the characteristic is optional, as it does not affect the defensive potential of Sitlali. It can be completely abandoned

Assembly sub-dd

The build for sub-dd Sitlali should include the following stats in artifacts:

Keep in mind that with such a build, Sitlali will noticeably lose her defensive potential for the squad. The ratio of characteristics for the auxiliary damage dealer Sitlali should be as follows:

• Crete. damage: bring it to at least 120% without compromising other stats.
• Crit. chance: no more than 80%.
• ATK: from 1300 to 1500 in relation to other stats.
• Elemental Mastery: approximately 250. A greater number can only be achieved if the weapon is equipped.
• Energy recovery: try to reach 170%.

Best weapon

When choosing weapons for Sitlali, both as a support and as a sub-damager, it is worth considering effects with energy restoration or elemental mastery. The main difference is that in the second role, you can consider crit equipment.

Support assembly

In the Sitlali support build, it is worth looking for energy restoration or elemental mastery. If the total amount of stats from artifacts accumulates an acceptable amount of MS, then you can put a catalyst with VE. Pay attention to the passive features of the equipment so that they give buffs to the squad or the heroine herself.

Name	Passive	Recommendation
The Vigil of the Caller to the Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 44-542 Elemental Mastery: 58-265	Elemental Mastery is additionally increased by 100. When the owner creates a shield, he gains the Mirror of Night effect for 15 sec. The active hero's damage is increased by 28%. The effect occurs once every 14 sec.	Sitlali's signature weapon, capable of both strengthening her shield and providing the active hero in the squad with a damage buff. The buff is almost constant and has no "windows" in uptime, which will have a positive effect in long-range combat.
Dreams of a thousand nights ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 44-542 Elemental Mastery 58-265	If the elements coincides with squad members, the owner's elemental mastery increases by 32 units. If the elements does not match, then the owner receives 10%-26% bonus damage to his element. The effect can be stacked up to 3 times. In addition, the Elemental Mastery of all nearby heroes (except the character equipped with the catalyst) is increased by +40. If other party members also have this weapon, the effect is cumulative.	A good alternative to Sitlali's signature. The weapon provides the necessary elemental mastery to strengthen the shield. Due to the MS buff for the entire squad, Sitlali with this catalyst can be considered as a shielder among teams with Overload, Superconductor, Charged, Shattered, Disperse, as well as a variety of Dendro reactions.
wandering star ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic Attack 42-510 Elemental Mastery 36-165	Every 10 sec. the following effect is applied and lasts for 12 sec.: Owner's attack power +24-48% of elemental mastery. Allies gain 30% of the owner's Elemental Mastery ATK. The effect can stack if other squad members have similar weapons. The buffs work even if the owner is not on the battlefield.	An epic weapon that can grant buffs to the party based on Sitlali's MS. All buffs included are useful and will positively impact both Sitlali's damage and shield durability.
Dragon Slayer Epic ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 39-401 HP: 7,7%-35,2%	When switching a character, it increases the attack power of the character that entered the battlefield by 24%—48% within 10 sec. Can occur once every 20 seconds.	Even though Sitlali's shield doesn't scale with HP, the weapon buff will help her boost her damage output from attack power. It makes sense to take her for short battles, but you need to accurately count the time of switching to main DD and combine it with his rotation to buff in time.
Nautical atlas (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 44–565 Elemental Mastery 24-110	After invoking an elemental reaction for 10 sec. Increases elemental damage bonus by 8-16%. Stacks up to 2 times.

The effect occurs once every 12 seconds.	The equipment will perform better with awakenings from P3 to P5 due to the increased chance of creating additional particles to restore energy to Sitlali and the party.
Sacrificial Fragments ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 41-454 Elemental Mastery 48-220	When an elemental skill deals damage, there is a 40-80% chance that its cooldown will be instantly restored. Can occur once every 30-16 seconds.	A specific weapon variant that increases elemental mastery and gives a chance to refresh Sitlali's barrier. Due to the fact that the heroine's elemental skill is not offensive and becomes so only after Izpapa enters the White Flame state, difficulties with the full implementation of the barrier rollback may arise.
fruit of replenishment (F2P) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic Attack 42-510 Energy recovery 10%-45,9%	Summoning an Elemental Reaction grants the character a buff that increases Elemental Mastery by 24-36, but reduces Attack Power by 5%. The effect can occur once every 0,3 seconds and stack up to 5 times. If you do not trigger Elemental Reactions, one level is lost every 6 seconds. This effect occurs even if the equipped character is not on the battlefield.	F2P weapons that can be obtained and awakened in Sumeru. If you maintain an acceptable amount of elemental mastery, but lack energy recovery, you should lean towards choosing such equipment. The difficulty lies in the need to trigger a reaction with Cryo to maintain the buff.
emerald ball ⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 40-449 Elemental Mastery: 20-94	When activating Steam, Charged, Freeze, Bud or Hydro Dispersion reactions, the owner's attack power is increased by 20% for 12 sec.	A basic early game catalyst that will need to be replaced with a rarer alternative over time. Provides the necessary Elemental Mastery stats and increases Sitlali's attack power.

Assembly sub-dd

In the variation of the auxiliary damager, Sitlali's weapon should increase attack power, critical damage or chance to maintain the balance of characteristics. The choice of a catalyst for the heroine in this vein should be approached thoroughly, carefully familiarizing yourself with the passive effect. In case of urgent need, you can put any equipment with critical mass or attack power, but there is a risk of losing a lot of damage.

Name	Passive	Recommendation
Dreams of a thousand nights ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 44-542 Elemental Mastery 58-265	If the elements coincides with squad members, the owner's elemental mastery increases by 32 units. If the elements does not match, then the owner receives 10%-26% bonus damage to his element. The effect can be stacked up to 3 times. In addition, the Elemental Mastery of all nearby heroes (except the character equipped with the catalyst) is increased by +40. If other party members also have this weapon, the effect is cumulative.	An excellent option for the sub-DD position in a squad with the ability to strengthen the entire team with bonus elemental mastery.
The Widsith ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic Attack 42-510 Critical Damage 12% ~ 55,1%	When switching to a character, a random melody plays for 10 seconds. The effect works every 30 seconds: Recitative: Attack Power +60-120%. Aria: Elemental Damage +48-96%. Interlude: Elemental Mastery +240-480 points.	An epic weapon that allows you to balance the heroine's critical mass and give a buff to all key stats. When switching the hero to Sitlali, the allotted time is enough to perform a rotation for the heroine under the effect of a random buff from the weapon.
Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 46-608 Critical Damage Chance 7,2-33,1%	Increases movement speed by 10%. During combat, every 4 seconds grants an 8-16% bonus elemental damage, stacking up to 4 times, and ends when the character dies or leaves the battlefield.	The weapon's effect will not be revealed if Sitlali spends little time in combat. In this case, the catalyst can be considered as an item for balancing the characteristics. This equipment will show itself better on a full-fledged damage dealer or in a cooperative mode, when the active hero is Sitlali herself.
Skyward Atlas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 48-674 ATK 7,2-33,1%	Increases elemental damage bonus by 12-24%. When hitting with a normal attack, there is a 50% chance to gain a blessing of clouds that attacks nearby enemies for 15 seconds and deals 160-320% of attack power damage. Can occur once every 30 seconds.	Provides a buff to elemental damage and increases attack power. The passive effect allows you to deal significant damage to enemies once every 30 seconds.
Memory of dust ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 46-608 Attack Power: 11%-50%	Increases shield durability by 20%. When hit, increases attack power by 4%-8% for 8 sec. The effect can stack up to 5 times and occurs once every 0,3 sec. In addition, while under shield protection, the attack power bonus of this effect is increased by 100%.	Allows to slightly balance Sitlali's damage and defensive potential by strengthening the shield. However, the buff only affects the heroine herself. For other allies, the barrier density will depend on Sitlali's initial MC.
Kagura's Verity ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 46-608 Critical Damage 14,4-66,2	Activating an elemental skill grants the owner the "Kagura Dance" effect, which increases the damage of their elemental skill by 12%-24%. This effect lasts for 16 seconds and can be stacked up to 3 times. At level 3 of the effect, the character gains a 12%-24% damage bonus with all elements.	Suitable for balancing characteristics. However, the passive effect will not be able to reveal itself properly, because to activate 3 levels, you need to use E-shka 3 times. When playing as Sitlali, you will only be able to get 1 stack of "Dance Kagura".
Paired jade ⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 40-608 Critical Chance: 3%-16%	Defeating an enemy increases movement speed and attack power by 20% for 15 sec.	An option for a transitional build on a heroine, helping to balance the characteristics.

We will also note a few options that might make you want to give them to Sitlali, but in reality they are not very suitable for her:

• Treasury supervision — despite the increase in crit. chance and attack power, it will not have the desired effect, since the mandatory condition for receiving additional attack power is the loss and restoration of HP. In the conditions of the game with Sitlali, where the rotation provides for the use of a shield, this catalyst will show itself mediocre.
• Tulaytullah's Remembrance - catalysts for increasing the normal attack are not very suitable for Sitlali and can be implemented in a limited number of teams. The heroine deals the main damage with her skills, so weapons of this type can look specific or be used as an alternative to balance the characteristics.

Best Artifacts

Among the artifacts for Sitlali, both as a sub-damage dealer and as a support, the best is the set from Natlan: Scroll of the Hero of the Burnt City Provides a powerful boost to the entire team and can be easily implemented by the heroine. Frequent use of Night Spirit Flash will allow Sitlali to restore valuable energy units.

Support assembly

As a support, Sitlali's artifacts should increase her elemental mastery and energy recovery. You can build a 2v2 build, although you should always prioritize full sets.

Assembly sub-dd

Sitlali's preferred set as a support damage dealer, even in this role, remains the buffing set from Natlan, since other builds encourage a more selfish play for the heroine. In such a scenario, Sitlali will not be able to provide the necessary support to the squad.

Detachments for Sitlali

Squads for Sitlali can differ in their variability, but it is always preferable to assemble teams with a Pyro or Hydro damager to implement a reduction in resistance to these elements in enemies. Other types of squads will lose in overall damage due to the lack of such a boost, which is why they look much weaker in conjunction with the heroine. In addition, Sitlali receives a bonus 16 Night Spirit points for Freeze or Melt reactions, and their shortage will negatively affect the overall rotation.

Best characters

In the following points we will indicate the best allies for the Sitlali group.

damage dealers

Damage dealers of various elements for playing in squads with Sitlali:

Sub-dd

Sub-damage dealers who can apply various elements to their opponents:

Sapports

Support heroes that provide a buff to damage, energy regeneration, or attack power:

Top Teams

The best teams for Sitlali are those where Melt or Freeze can be easily implemented. This requires Hydro and Pyro heroes in various positions. Less often, additional Cryo characters may be needed, since Sitlali has a weak application without activating White Flame at Itzpapa.

Teams playing from a full Freeze with the Cryo damager dominating show themselves to be much weaker, because in this case the 20% cut of resistances for Pyro and Hydro elements is lost, and the debuff on the ice element of Sitlali does not apply.

Squads with Hydro Main-DD

Teams with Hydro damage dealers, boosted by Sitlali:

Squads with Pyro main-dd

Commands with Melt reaction and buff from Sitlali. If you are using a character with a two-handed sword, keep in mind that you won't be able to maintain the reaction constantly because claymore strikes destroy frozen enemy statues.

Squads with Cryo Main-DD

In these squads, Sitlali will not be able to provide adequate support to the main damage dealer; it makes sense to add her only if the squad has strong Pyro or Hydro sub-DDs, and the Cryo main-DD needs resonance or energy boost.

Freeze Squads

It is better not to play Sitlali from pure Freeze in the late stages, since the heroine will not be able to fully open up and give the team the necessary boost. In such squads, Sitlali should only be considered in a support build with maximum shield strengthening. It is not worth knocking out a girl specifically for such groups, Dione or Laila will often prove themselves to be no worse.

Is it worth knocking out Sitlali?

In Genshin Impact Sitlali is a Cryo Shield with scales from mastery of the elements, capable of reducing enemy resistance to Pyro and Hydro damage. Due to this feature, the heroine is better suited to teams with a limited number of damage dealers and reactions. Sitlali is dependent on Freeze and Melt to receive buffs and stable operation of her own skills, and, despite the status of a Cryo debuffer, is actually more suitable for Pyro and Hydro damage dealers than for heroes with the same element.

In addition, it is difficult for Sitlali to choose an alternative to the signature weapon from the available options. Innate mechanics allow you to become a carrier of artifacts Scroll of the Hero of the Burnt City and provide additional reinforcement to the squad, and the build as a shielder is very simple. The heroine will be a good investment for players with already assembled primary or secondary damage dealers, but if you only need a shield and survivability from Sitlali, she is not critical for knocking out on the account.

What is better for Sitlali: signa or c1

The choice between the signature Sitlali and C1 largely depends on the further plans for the development of the heroine and the availability of alternative equipment.

• Acquisition of The Vigil of the Caller to the Stars will realize the full potential of the buffer and strengthen Sitlali's shield due to the bonus elemental mastery. It is difficult to find a worthy alternative for the heroine without losing effectiveness, especially if you want to get damage from her.
• The first constellation of Citlali offers a number of buffs for the girl, useful in combat and for exploring the territory of Natlan, and, in addition, it opens the way to C2. However, pure C1 without C2 does not make much sense in the future. If you do not plan to roll to the second constellation, it is better to take the signature weapon instead of opening the first.

Sitlali or Zhongli: who is better

Let's compare the benefits of Sitlali with another top shield Zhongli, which is also capable of reducing enemy resistances.

Sitlali Bonuses (C0)	Bonuses Zhongli (C0)
Assembly: main stat - mastery of elements, uses Natlana set. In another version or in a hodgepodge 2/2 shows itself much worse. Collect a full set Scroll of the Hero of the Burnt City it is critical for her, and considering that pieces for elemental mastery drop rarely, farming can take a long time.	Assembly: main stat is HP. The sets that Zhongli can use either buff attack power by 20% (Tenacity of the Millelith from E-shka, Noblesse Oblige from Q), or give 35% elemental damage of one element from Crystallization (Archaic Petra). However, it does its job perfectly even without 2/2 bonuses and is not actually tied to any set.
Teams: plays well only with Pyro and Hydro damagers. It is not implemented in Freeze because it does not reduce resistance to Cryo, it is not suitable for physical damage for the same reason.	Teams: plays in almost any squad, except that it is less common in Dendro groups and Freeze, since the column's ticks break the ice from frozen enemies.
Personal Damage: capable of producing noticeable numbers with a stable Pyro status from fiery main-dd and sub-dd, if it closes reactions.	Personal Damage: is practically absent. E-shka hits 2-4k damage every couple of seconds. Damage from the ult in a crit build rarely justifies its use, since the animation duration is 3 seconds. Often, the explosion of the elements is completely abandoned, since during this time other characters are capable of inflicting much more damage.
Need for additional investments: very strong signature and constellations, especially C1-2. Suitable for players who like to improve their existing characters. And, conversely, although Sitlali copes well on C0, it is not suitable for users who are confused by the potential hidden in consts and signatures.	Need for additional investments: constellations and signature do not increase the support potential or personal damage of Geo Archon in any way, and will not bring any tangible benefit even if they are present.

In conclusion, Sitlali is better for teams with Pyro and Hydro damage dealers, especially with a stable fire status, so that Sitlali can deal significant damage from closing reactions. Her shield is less durable than Zhongli's, and this is compensated by her personal damage. Zhongli is more versatile and easily switches teams, so she is more suitable for a beginner without clearly formed squads. Sitlali is better for old players or those who have good Pyro or Hydro damage dealers with whom they plan to play for a long time.
