She needs as much Elemental Mastery as possible, and you need to choose the correct weapons and artifacts to attain the desired stats.
Citatli also works very well with the melt and frozen teams, and brings out great damage by Nightsoul characters such as Mavuika.

She is a cozy character who enjoys gliding on her pillow, so you can take her to your ventures in mountainous areas.

If you do not have artifacts with the stats you want on the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City, you should go with other sets with better stats till you farm artifacts with desirable stats.
Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City
The Scroll of the Hero of the Cinder City is the best artifact set for Citlali, it doesn’t increase her Elemental Mastery, but it will charge your Elemental Energy faster, and you will be able to givemassive elemental damage booststo your teammates depending on the elements you used to trigger the elemental reaction.

Most of Citlali’s Kit focuses onAttack and Elemental Mastery, however, if you are using her as a support, you can only focus on Elemental Mastery. Citlali is an easier character to build, as you don’t need to balance out the Critical Rate and Critical Damage ratios. Increasing her Elemental Recharge and Elemental Mastery will be all you need.

If you are building her as a Sub-DPS, you should also focus on the attack as a sub-stat.
