Jahoda is a 4-star Anemo Bow character introduced in Genshin Impact version 6.2 "Luna III". As the official employee of Nod-Krai's Curatorium of Secrets, she functions primarily as an off-field Anemo support and healer, with sub-DPS potential. Her kit revolves around absorbing elements via her Skill for Swirl reactions and off-field application (enhanced in Ascendant Gleam Moonsign state), while her Burst summons healing cat robots that also deal Anemo damage. She excels in Lunar/Moonsign teams, providing EM buffs, RES shred, and consistent healing scaled off ATK.
Jahoda Kit Overview
Normal Attack: Strike While the Arrow's Hot / Opportunistic Arrows
Performs up to 3 consecutive bow shots. Rarely used in rotations; not worth leveling.
Elemental Skill: Savvy Strategy: Splitting the Spoils / Shadow Pursuit
Jahoda enters Shadow Pursuit state, dashing to absorb nearby enemy elements (priority: Pyro > Hydro > Electro > Cryo). Hold to fill flask fully, then throw for AoE Anemo DMG (or Smoke Bomb if no hit). With Ascendant Gleam (party Moonsign level), consumes element for continuous off-field DMG of absorbed type + 2 Energy per hit.
Elemental Burst: Hidden Aces: Seven Tools of the Hunter
Summons 2 Purrsonal Household Helper Coordinators (cat robots) for 15s. Heals active character (ATK-scaling), deals off-field Anemo DMG. Converts based on majority nearby element:

- Electro: +1 robot
- Cryo: -10% attack interval
At >70% active HP: EM buff + heal lowest HP ally.
Passives
- Utility Passive 1: In Moonsign parties, Skill flask enables off-field elemental DMG.
