· Full kit information for Nico, including her skills, Elemental Burst, signature weapon, and Constellation effects, has been leaked and is a major topic in the community.
· However, it's important to note that this information comes from an unconfirmed source and is unofficial, making it a low-reliability rumor. There's a high possibility that the content may change significantly during the testing phase.
· According to current rumors, Nico is a 5-star Pyro character who functions as an off-field support.
· Her main roles are shield generation and team-wide ATK buffs, specializing in boosting the damage of the main DPS.

· Nico's Elemental Skill generates a shield, and its strength scales with Nico's ATK.
· The shield is stack-based, gaining 1 stack each time Nico performs a Normal Attack.
· Additionally, shield stacks increase further whenever a Pyro Elemental Reaction (such as Vaporize, Melt, Overload) occurs.
· This means the shield continuously strengthens during combat, providing stable defense, and unlike other shielder characters, it has low Elemental Energy dependency.

· Nico's Elemental Burst provides a team-wide ATK buff, excluding Nico herself.
· While the Elemental Burst effect is active, if a Pyro Elemental Reaction occurs, additional effects are triggered depending on the team composition.

Category	Details
Base Effect	Team-wide ATK buff (excluding Nico)
Additional Effect 1	If an Elemental Reaction-focused character's element is involved in a reaction, the ATK buff is further strengthened.
Additional Effect 2	If multiple Elemental Reaction-focused characters' elements are involved in a reaction, ATK buff + team-wide DMG Multiplier Bonus.

· In other words, while an ATK buff is provided in standard compositions, Nico's support performance becomes even stronger in teams that actively utilize Elemental Reactions.

· Nico's signature weapon is a Catalyst, and its main stats are reportedly Energy Recharge and ATK.
· This aligns very well with Nico's kit, as it can simultaneously increase Elemental Burst uptime and shield strength.
· The weapon's effect grants a team-wide DMG buff when a shield is generated by an Elemental Skill, and this team-wide DMG also increases as shield stacks accumulate.
· Since shield stacks frequently build up during combat, this effect also triggers often, creating excellent synergy with Nico's kit.
· The community has high expectations that previously underutilized Catalyst weapons might be re-evaluated with Nico.

· Nico's Constellation effects are designed to greatly enhance her team support capabilities.

Constellation	Effect
C1	Grants a team-wide Crit DMG buff (activation conditions unconfirmed)
C2	Nico's ATK increases (further shield strengthening) Elemental Burst's ATK buff is further strengthened

· Advancing to C2 is expected to significantly improve Nico's support performance, making her a more stable character in both buffer and shielder roles.
· While her basic role can certainly be fulfilled at C0, C1 and C2 are expected to be important enhancements that affect overall team performance, not just simple numerical increases.

· Following the leak of Nico's information, various team composition discussions have been actively taking place in the community.
· With Faruzan: There's high anticipation that Nico will be the best support in Faruzan main DPS teams. Hypercarry compositions centered around Faruzan and Furina are also expected.
· With Arlecchino: Nico's ATK buff is expected to synergize well with Arlecchino, a Pyro DPS who values ATK. Her ability to provide both shields and damage support from off-field is an attractive feature.
· Melt Compositions: Many players want to utilize Nico in Melt teams, such as Melt Ganyu or Melt Mavika. Her mechanism of strengthening shields through Pyro Elemental Reactions makes her theoretically a good fit.
· Overload Compositions: Nico is also being considered as a candidate for Overload parties combining Pyro and Electro elements. She could be used with Fischl or Furina, and the Overload reactions triggered by allies would strengthen Nico's shield, providing defensive benefits.

· Nico is a Pyro shielder support and ATK buffer character, characterized by a stack-based shield and a team-wide ATK buff Elemental Burst.
· She has the potential to exhibit even stronger support performance, especially in compositions that include Elemental Reaction-focused characters.
· Her signature weapon and early Constellation effects are also designed to align well with Nico's kit, enhancing her team support capabilities.
· While there's high anticipation in the community for her synergy with characters like Faruzan and Arlecchino, concerns are also being raised due to her dependency on specific Elemental Reaction compositions.
· Many players are eagerly watching to see if this leaked kit will actually be implemented.
