Is Mika worth building?

Mika is an adorable, fully free 4-star support, but he only truly earns his slot when you run a Normal-Attack Physical carry like Eula, or a fast-hitting DPS who loves Attack Speed. Outside those teams he's pretty niche. The one thing to worry about is enough Energy Recharge to Burst consistently; everything else goes into HP% and Healing Bonus. No premium weapon needed: the Favonius Lance is his best and it's a 4-star. In short, he's fantastic in the right team and safely shelved otherwise.

No talents really need farming — just aim for enough Energy Recharge to Burst on time; put a bit into E for the buff stacks and Q for healing, skip Normal Attacks.

Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Skyfeather Song
Derives the ability to spur his teammates on from the recited prayers of the knightly order, regenerating HP for all nearby party members. This healing is based on Mika's Max HP and will grant them the Eagleplume state.

Eagleplume
When the Normal Attacks of active characters affected by Eagleplume hit an opponent, Mika will help them regenerate HP based on his Max HP.
Characters affected by this state can only regenerate HP in this way once per short interval of time.

"Carry hope when in dire straits, and keep vigil when all is well... For that pure white plume shall at last guide the lost wayfarers."
Suppressive Barrage
Per the following circumstances, the Soulwind state caused by Starfrost Swirl will grant characters the Detector effect, increasing their Physical DMG by 10% when they are on the field.
·If the Flowfrost Arrow hits more than one opponent, each additional opponent hit will generate 1 Detector stack.
·When a Rimestar Shard hits an opponent, it will generate 1 Detector stack. Each Rimestar Shard can trigger the effect 1 time.

The Soulwind state can have a maximum of 3 Detector stacks, and if Starfrost Swirl is cast again during this duration, the pre-existing Soulwind state and all its Detector stacks will be cleared.
Topographical Mapping
When an active character affected by both Skyfeather Song's Eagleplume and Starfrost Swirl's Soulwind at once scores a CRIT Hit with their attacks, Soulwind will grant them 1 stack of Detector from the Ascension Talent Suppressive Barrage. During a single instance of Soulwind, 1 Detector stack can be gained in this manner.
Additionally, the maximum number of stacks that can be gained through Soulwind alone is increased by 1.
You must first unlock the Ascension Talent "Suppressive Barrage."
Demarcation
Displays the location of nearby resources unique to Mondstadt on the mini-map.
