Mona vs Sigewinne

Damage amplification vs. teamwide healing and Skill buffing

TL;DR — Quick Pick

Pick Mona if…

  • When running high-investment Freeze or Vaporize nuke teams
  • When you need a Catalyst user to carry Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers
  • When grouping is provided by Anemo and you just need more DMG %

Pick Sigewinne if…

  • When you need a sustained teamwide healer for Furina stacks
  • When your main DPS relies heavily on off-field Elemental Skill damage
  • When you prefer a low-field-time Hydro enabler
Verdict

Mona provides superior offensive scaling for burst windows, while Sigewinne offers comfort through healing and niche Skill damage buffs. Sigewinne is the better choice for Furina teams, whereas Mona remains the queen of damage showcases.

Shared Team Members

With Mona

Furina's Universal DMG bonus from Fanfare stacks multiplicatively with Mona's Omen debuff, leading to astronomical damage windows. This combination is particularly effective for front-loaded burst setups that can capitalize on the short Omen duration.

With Sigewinne

Sigewinne's teamwide healing from her Skill quickly generates Fanfare stacks for Furina, allowing her to reach her maximum DMG bonus early in the rotation. Additionally, Sigewinne's passive specifically buffs the Elemental Skill damage of off-field dealers like Furina.
