Vodyanitsa GUIDE
Understand Vodyanitsa
Useful when…
Providing periodic healing and interruption resistance through Song of Ages Past.
Reducing Hydro and Cryo RES on opponents hit by Skill attacks.
Using Water Imp form outside combat to swim and move across the water's surface.
Skill support and Burst
Rechitativ: Sonorous Dawn deals area Hydro damage and activates Song of Ages Past. Its initial attack and Horn of Spring's Call attacks each reduce Hydro and Cryo RES by 16.5% for six seconds on opponents hit. While the effect is active, the party's active character gains increased interruption resistance and periodically regenerates HP every 1.5 seconds, based on Vodyanitsa's Max HP plus a flat amount. The state lasts 16 seconds, and the Skill cooldown is 16 seconds. Koda: Sink With Thee deals area Hydro damage and gains a 48% damage bonus while Song of Ages Past is active; its listed Energy cost is 60.
Water Imp form and attacks
Holding her Skill outside combat puts Vodyanitsa into Water Imp form for up to 10 seconds at the cost of Stamina. In that form she can move across the water's surface and swim faster, though Stamina consumption is also increased. The form ends if the Skill is used again, its duration ends, or Stamina runs out. Her Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks are Hydro catalyst attacks; her Charged Attack consumes Stamina to throw a water ball.
Talent and ascension materials
The Skill track covers her Skill attacks and support effect, while Burst levels affect Koda: Sink With Thee and its stated Song of Ages Past bonus. The Normal Attack track applies to her catalyst sequence. Ascension examples list Varunada Lazurite, Frostfairy Flower, Chimeric materials, and Unscorched Blossom Branch at later stages. A listed level 9-to-10 talent step costs 700,000 Mora, 16 Philosophies of Fortitude, 12 Prime Chimeric Nexus, two Madman's Restraint, and a Crown of Insight.
Conditions and comparisons
RES reduction applies only to opponents hit by the initial Skill attack or Horn of Spring's Call. The active character's healing uses both a Max HP scaling term and a flat amount. Water Imp traversal requires holding the Skill outside combat and is limited by Stamina and duration.
Limitations and tradeoffs
RES reduction depends on Skill attacks hitting opponents and lasts six seconds.
Water Imp movement is limited by Stamina and a ten-second maximum duration.
The Burst's 48% damage bonus requires Song of Ages Past to be active.
Common mistakes to avoid
Assuming RES reduction applies to opponents not hit by Skill attacks.
Describing the healing as only Max HP scaling and omitting its flat amount.
Treating Water Imp travel as Stamina-free or unlimited.

Rechitativ: Sonorous Dawn · Elemental skill
Reveals her true Water Imp form, dealing AoE Hydro DMG and gaining the Song of Ages Past effect: While this effect is active, Vodyanitsa summons the ancient Horn of Spring's Call, periodically moving closer to an opponent in a swift movement to attack them, dealing Hydro DMG. The above two types of attacks will also decrease the Hydro RES and Cryo RES of opponents hit. Additionally, while the Song of Ages Past effect is active, the party's active character gains increased resistance to interruption and periodically regenerates HP based on Vodyanitsa's Max HP.

The Last Djeguako Songstress
When the Elemental Skill Rechitativ: Sonorous Dawn is used, any Stellar Vortex on the field will turn into a Wandering Vortex instead. While the **Song of Ages Past** effect is active, nearby party members' Stellar Swirl reactions will generate Wandering Vortex instead. Generating or detonating a Wandering Vortex will also reduce nearby opponents' Anemo RES by 35% for 6s. Additionally, nearby party members who enter the Radiance: Stellar Swirl state while Song of Ages Past is in effect will have the Radiance: Stellar Swirl state extended by 4s.
Dirge of the Fandyr
When the Elemental Skill Rechitativ: Sonorous Dawn is used, Vodyanitsa will also gain 25 stacks of **Lead Vocal** as well as 10 stacks of **Chorus**. The two effects above last 30s each, and the stack count is refreshed when the Elemental Skill is used.
Echoes Over the Frozen Lake
Holding the Elemental Skill outside of combat will cause Vodyanitsa to embody her true Water Imp form and swim for up to 10s at the cost of Stamina. Naturally, as a Water Imp, she can also move across the water's surface. Vodyanitsa will exit her Water Imp form when the Elemental Skill is used again, when the duration ends, or when all Stamina is depleted. Additionally, while Vodyanitsa can swim faster, her Stamina consumption rate is also increased.
Heartless Siren Song
As the Prima Donna of the Korolevskiy Troupe, Vodyanitsa sings in person in place of playing an instrument.
