C0R1 Varka DPS Test with C0 Nicole + C0 Durin + C2 Prune [DAY 1 Build]

Nicole+Prune team is almost 40K DPS increase compared to my previous C0R1 Varka team. After a bit more artifact farming for Nicole and maxing her talents, I'm pretty sure I can reach 165K - 170K DPS mark. To compare, my C0R1 Nefer with C0 Columbina, C0 Lauma & C0 Nahida can reach 180K DPS. So, I guess I can say that Varka is now Nod-Krai tier DPS.

Team: C0R1 Varka, C0 Durin, C0 Nicole, C2 Prune

Rotation Used: Durin EEQ > Prune EQ > Nicole EQ > Varka E N1C N4E N4E 2N1C.

Personal Observation:

✪ This is Day 1 test so my Nicole's skill build is 6-9-6.

✪ I've tried A LOT of different character builds, rotations, attack strings etc and this is what gave me the best DPS result.

✪ Normally, you'd want to use ATK% sand and ATK% goblet with Varka since Nicole's Astral Projection damage benefits from it. I tested with both ATK% goblet & Pyro DMG Bonus goblet. My ATK% goblet build even has slightly better CV. But Pyro DMG Bonus goblet build was always giving slightly better DPS. SO, I used that my final Varka build.

✪ With my Nicole's current build, I can reach 4K ATK with Skyward Atlas. So, I tested with both TTDS & Skyward Atlas builds. TTDS build was always giving significantly better DPS.

When to use Cissia's Hold Attack ?

Basically the title. Do I use it only when 6 Venom is available or every time before switching to Seed or only before enemy is about to get stunned ?

TIA.

Should I use Tune Break ability with Aemeath or Use it whenever it's available ?

Basically the title. Most of the time, Tune Break ability becomes available when Lynae is doing her combos in rotation. So, I feel like if I delay it to do the break with Aemeath, I'm losing out on free damage. Then again IDK if I'm losing out on any buff when Aemeath is doing her rotation. Does anyone know what is the proper way of Tune Breaking ?
