Is Diona worth building?

Diona is one of the best team-keepers you can get for free: a durable shield, solid healing, and off-field Cryo that fits Freeze teams like Ayaka's or Ganyu's perfectly. What she needs most is Energy Recharge to Burst every rotation, aim for around 170%+, then pile on HP% for a bigger shield and heals. Weapons are easy: the 4-star Favonius Warbow or Sacrificial Bow is the standard, no 5-star needed. A tiny investment that carries the whole team.

Diona's talents

Kätzlein Style
Normal Attack
Performs up to 5 consecutive shots with a bow.

Charged Attack
Performs a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG.
While aiming, biting frost will accumulate on the arrowhead. A fully charged frost arrow will deal Cryo DMG.

Plunging Attack
Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Icy Paws
#Fires an Icy Paw that deals Cryo DMG to opponents and forms a shield on hit.
The shield's DMG Absorption scales based on Diona's Max HP, and its duration scales off the number of Icy Paws that hit their target.

{LAYOUT_MOBILE#Tap}{LAYOUT_PC#Press}{LAYOUT_PS#Press}
Rapidly fires off 2 Icy Paws.

Hold
Dashes back quickly before firing 5 Icy Paws.
The shield created by a Hold attack will gain a 75% DMG Absorption Bonus.

The shield has a 250% Cryo DMG Absorption Bonus, and will cause your active character to become affected by Cryo at the point of formation for a short duration.

When she first started bartending, Diona found that no matter how much ice she put in her cocktails, it would never do a drunkard any harm. That all changed when she received her Vision — now she can form ice cold enough to cause severe brainfreeze. Five out of five stars!
Signature Mix
Tosses out a special cold brew that deals AoE Cryo DMG and creates a Drunken Mist in an AoE.

Drunken Mist
·Deals continuous Cryo DMG to opponents within the AoE.
·Continuously regenerates the HP of characters within the AoE.

A horrific mix that even Diona considers inhumane. The horrifying foretaste should be left for one's opponents. It has a crisp aftertaste, but unfortunately, one can only feel it on one's nose and skin.
Cat's Tail Secret Menu
Characters shielded by Icy Paws have their Movement SPD increased by 10% and their Stamina Consumption decreased by 10%.
Drunkards' Farce
Opponents who enter the AoE of Signature Mix have 10% decreased ATK for 15s.
Complimentary Bar Food
When a Perfect Cooking is achieved on a dish with restorative effects, there is a 12% chance to obtain double the product.
Choice Treasures
Within 20s after using the Elemental Skill Icy Paws, Diona will also fire off three Icy Paws when party members trigger Superconduct or Stellar-Conduct reactions. Icy Paws fired this way cannot generate Elemental Particles, nor will they generate a shield upon hitting opponents. This effect can occur once every 3.5s.
Additionally, when inside a {LINK#N11330003}Polestar Field{/LINK}, Diona will enter the Radiance: Stellar-Conduct state.
