Skirk is finally playable in Genshin Impact — top-tier Cryo DPS or overhyped Fontaine tease?

She’s insane. Best Cryo DPS if you build her right, even in F2P setups.

Skirk hits like a truck and moves like a jet. Her kit is complex, but once you get the rhythm, she makes other Cryo units feel outdated.

Not overhyped at all — her mobility and raw damage are unmatched.

Skirk might be the most fun and flexible 5★ Cryo unit we’ve had in a while. The dual Burst mechanic, her unique energy-free playstyle, and built-in mobility from her Skill make her a beast in Abyss and exploration alike. Sure, she’s kind of team-locked into Cryo/Hydro comps, but that synergy gives her one of the highest normal attack multipliers in the game. Even without constellations or her signature sword, she performs extremely well. She’s not just hype — she’s the future of Cryo DPS if HoYoverse doesn't nerf her through future content balancing.

I was skeptical, but she’s meta-breaking. Being able to skip energy requirements and still dish out 150k+ per rotation is wild.
