You don’t actually need the “perfect” meta team to hit high DPS. The biggest gains come from using what you already have, your best weapons and most invested characters, and optimizing around them.
Once you start adjusting team comps, rotations, and synergies based on your account, you’ll squeeze out way more damage than just copying builds blindly.
I honestly don't think Nicole is worth pulling for Klee if you already own Xilonen and Durin. While Nicole offers a global attack buff, she lacks personal damage and only provides a shield and minor RES shred.
Xilonen is her most direct competitor, and it’s hard to see what Nicole offers that Xilonen doesn’t do better; Xilonen provides global shred for the entire party and trades Nicole’s shield for consistent healing, which often offers more utility. Furthermore, Durin is a much more efficient teammate than Nicole—both can trigger the 'Celestial Gift' artifact set and provide RES shred, but Durin contributes significant off-field damage that Nicole simply can’t match.
Unless you’re missing both Xilonen and Durin, Nicole feels like a redundant investment that doesn't actually improve team damage.
What do you guys think?
