This!!! If her ult provided a hp-scaling shield she would actually be a good unit. It wouldn't matter that her ult provides lower damage than YunJin, you would instead be given the defensive role of shielder which I feel YunJin is not able to do for someone like Yoimiya. Those little crystallize shards tend to not be enough, meaning you have to bring someone like Zhongli or Diona who are both DPS losses (compared to having an entire free slot for someone like Kazuha).

Mihoyo really made a bad move here. They should have made her burst explode more frequently. They probably forgot that characters like Xinqui exists that can proc water swords that freaking deal x3 more damage than her mini explosions. also I noticed her explosions are smaller size than Yoimiya's Burst. which is honestly useless in most cases.

I think Hoyoverse made candance with the wrong intent. They were too timid to make her numbers high after Hydro Infusion. So they lowered her numbers What came out was a Candace that is just overshadowed by the same mainstay characters (Xingqiu, Bennet, Xiangling) She doesn't even do much better than niche characters. For example: Candace is great with Ayato due to her Normal/Charged attack buff. Plus Water Infusion. Yunjin- Another Normal/Charged attack buffer Does Candace's work better than her! Yunjin is GEO and she 'RESONATES' better than Hydro Candance!!!? Whyyyyy- (I am distressing) She isn't even the best in her specifc areas And she doesnt have enough versatility (Like Kuki with dendro/healing) to replace anyone. I LOVE her design, her trailer.

Timeful block gives extra energy. 3: Make her Burst heals everytime a character is switched. 4: Make her Burst gives extra Hydro particles when teammate deals elemental NA. 5. Make her E gives some stacks everytime she blocks. When she use burst, consume those stacks and buff the burst accordingly.

The only “fun” part of her kit is that her “shield attacks” actually shatters frozen enemies like claymore attacks, i just find it amusing. At the moment, she doesn’t really do anything significant. It’s like they wanted to make a character that has team infusion for hydro, and makes her entire kit to be just that. Just crossing the list of infusion here, pyro, cryo, and hydro crossed off.

Dehya is generic? Wow, how about saying that everyone has their own taste

i think she could be a good pairing with nilou. instead of infusing nilou's normal attacks with her own E, activate the hydro ring using nilou and use candace to give her hydro infusion instead. both characters scale on hp and can help each other with hydro resonance, and with nilou's ring + candace's infusion there will be a higher rate of hydro application and hence multi mega blooms (like the barbara bug), since nilou's hydro ring and regular atks/charge all have different ICDs

Ive notice people tend to overlook how strong the scalings on her normal attacks are. I feel like with the right team and set she can be a solid main dps. I atill dont have her maxed but candace, Benny, Yunjin, and either zhongli or better Thoma for vapes would get her a lot of normal attack buffs and power. Shes only 49 for me atm and unleveled artofacts but her normal attaxks are increasing close to 10x in damage for me woth her, yunjin, and benny buffs

I really think hoyoverse is keeping it on the down low when it comes to designing gameplay for 4 stars and they've been introducing more niche and unique passives and gameplay idk maybe it's too early to say the meta game will probably change drastically in the future once we discover better teams and future characters

Meta will hardly change in reverse powercreep system, since earlier units are way stronger than the later. We can only hope the 4 and 5 stars from snezhnaya are at least half of inazuma 4 stars strength, cause looking at this pattern, snezhnaya 4 star gonna have 120 energy burst, with damage less than kuki skill.

she is strange for me too, she is like a hydro yun jin that can be played at talent 1-1-1 XD i think her best for now comes with yelan u have extra Hp for both of them and the main attaccker do the rest, for now i'm trying to play her with noelle goro yelan and she is like a "cheap" mona with 12 duration sec instead of 8 sec,

I've been running her as an on-field Hydro applicator for hyperbloom and it's pretty decent 1st unit - Candace 2nd unit - Dendro Traveller or Collei 3rd unit - Full EM Raiden or Kuki for Hyperbloom 4th unit - Xinqiu, Yelan or Kokomi for additional hydro application and hydro resonance Use Kuki or Kokomi for healing needs

I was pretty close to my petty 5 star summon so I went for Cyno (I'm not some op player and only had Miya as a 5 star) however I was lucky enough to get Candice to c1 and Cyno with my saved summons. I love Cyno but haven't tried Candice yet, because Guhua Geek is way more favorable since he has dr/ healing/ long burst that pairs perfect for either Cyno or Miya and is still a viable choice on his own if a character dies. Super excited I got my 2nd five star as another featured unit, and can't wait to see who I get next

I really love her design and so disappointed in her kit. I will still build her and use her though. Hopefully she will get a buff or something in the future

She feels like a strange lovechild between Yun jin and Xingqiu (at c6). I think she might be useful to run in the Hu/Yelan team* and replace Xingqiu (not because its better) but because it frees Xingqiu up for another team *(Assuming you don't have c1 Hu who only charge attacks)

The number 1 team I have in mind that uses her is Razor, Candace, Kazuha, and Dendro Traveler for hyperbloom Razor. Infusing Razor's normal attacks with hydro will allow him to deal both hydro and electro dmg during his burst and Kazuha can vv shred both elements while also giving Razor hydro and electro dmg bonus. Using this team, you only need to focus on stacking Razor with em and Rainslasher fits perfectly as Razor's weapon.

Might wanna revisit once Nilou is out, I havent been too up-to-date with the leaks but since she (Nilou) is a Hydro sword user she might work well with Candace... Just some food for thought...

I think she'll be great for future characters idk, and maybe like her kit we already have normal attacks that can be overwritten like Bennet C6, Chongyun, and Candace so it's expecting that we might get more elements that can overwritten normal attacks Would be nice if there's a character that can do multiple overwritten normal attacks tho within the team that would be such a great combo

I think candace ans kaeya would work really well together since both ult times r same 9 sec

A 9 second buff that wants you to cycle through your team and then normal attack with the last character... I fail to see what Mihoyo wants her to do with that.

I got her and I level her up immediately to level 20 and get the Aquent fate and probably put her at the basment alongside aloy and amber.

I'm pretty much sure dori and candace both are working with particular 5 star characters which mihoyo will release in future

Ok like- I wanted to get her sm on my main acc, but seeing this I'm kind of glad I am not going to roll for her- but like- maybe she's just here for bloom so she might be a good support for nilou but moving on- this makes me happy bc I finally wont have to risk getting Cyno/Venti for her

I'm really sad they did her dirty with her Ult duration. Xingqiu and the starter 4*s are stronger than the current ones because Hoyoverse learned their lesson in not making 4* powerful units: either great in a niche or clunky unless investment is given. It's in a gacha game's nature, after all.

So... TL;DR she's a character with no purpose at all, since YunJin buff is stronger, and Kazuha provides a "similar" buff, but not only for Normal Attacks, but also for all elementla dmg Even worse, she doesn't provide anything outside a rather low value buff, compared to other characters which people might already have well developed

She has a purpose no other character can replicate. She infuses your character's normal attack with hydro. It being usefull depends on the person. While I dont see her as top tier, she will create new possibilities others cant replicate and perhaps in the future she might jump up a tier. Just like how people trashed Kokomi and Kuki because they were less viable at the start because what they offered were niche compared to other existing characters, yet now they have their own role not many can replicate. Fischl cant replicate Kuki. Mona cant replicate Kokomi. Yunjin cant replicate Candace.

If not oh well I have her around for some future spot in hydro/dendro teams. I'm sure we will get a more moblie dendro applying unit soon enough. my traveller is probably stuck with my kequing/cyno aggrevate team for now. and I mean I have a built wateboy with c2 to fall back on but I'll try her out for sure. especially since she's so easy and cheap to build with all the HP scalling
