A Comparison of Flins’ Constellations in Genshin Impact 'Luna I'

Hi! Travelers! Is it worth investing in Flins’ constellation, and what benefits does each one bring?  Above all, which is the smarter investment: the smoother mechanics of C1 or the base stat gains from C2?

Today, LDShop has put together a full comparison of Flins’ all constellations.

Constellation 0

Build and Stats
Weapon:		ATK:  2,354 EM:  240 CRIT Rate/DMG: 70%/236%

Expectations: The fully charged buff of Flins is expected to be 1,198,798 with weapon strength setting as 100%.

Constellation 1

Build and Stats
Weapon:		ATK:  2,354 EM:  240 CRIT Rate/DMG: 70%/236%
Artifact:
Team Comp
Flins	Ineffa (2,200 ATK)	Furina	Xilonen
Expectations: The fully charged buff of Flins is expected to be 1,543,418 with weapon strength setting as 128.7%.

Notes:

C1 has two effects:

• (1) reducing the time of basic cooldown of the special Elemental Skill (Northland Spearstorm) from 6s to 4s;
• (2) recovering 8 Elemental Energy when teammates trigger Lunar-Charged reactions and the recovery occurs once every 5.5s.

Before C1, you can hit 2 special E and 2 special Q in each duration. After unlocking C1, you can hit 3 special E and 3 special Q in each duration. Therefore, it is an improvement in mechanics and is not affected by the dilution of teammates' assistance.

Constellation 2

Build and Stats
Weapon:		ATK:  2,354 EM:  240 CRIT Rate/DMG: 70%/236%
Artifact:
Team Comp
Flins	Ineffa (2,200 ATK)	Furina	Xilonen
Expectations: The fully charged buff of Flins is expected to be 1,896,473 with weapon strength setting as 158.2%.
Comparison: 58.2% higher than C0; 22.9% higher than C1

Notes:  For the next 6s after using the special Elemental Skill, when Flins’ next Normal Attack hits an opponent, it will deal an additional 50% of Flins’ ATK as AoE Electro DMG. This DMG is considered Lunar-Charged DMG. While Flins is on the field, when his Electro attacks hit an enemy, that enemy’s Electro RES will be creased by 25% for 7s. C2’s DEF reduction overlaps with the DEF debuffs from support characters, so the effects weaken each other. Since Xilonen is already part of this team, moving from C1 to C2 gives a definite 22.9% boost. This gain looks modest, but that’s mostly because C0 is already very strong.

WOW!!

Conclusion

Flins is a pretty easy character to build and is more geared toward Free-to-Play players. His strength at C0 is already sufficient, and if you have a CRIT polearm, you don’t even need to worry about his signature weapon. To fully unlock Flins’ constellation, consider topping up through LDShop website.

When it comes to constellation value, C1 is the best bang for your buck, while C2 is pretty much the peak. C3, C4 and C5 are not worth considering at all since Flins benefits more from basic ATK% than a specific damage bonus. It is easier to optimize his stats and stack CRIT compared to other characters.
