Mualani kit
Mualani is a 5-Star Hydro character who uses a catalyst.
Keeping in mind that this is leaked beta information from honeyhunterworld that could change upon Mualani's official release, here's a summary of Mualani's kit in Genshin Impact:
- Element: Hydro.
- Rarity: 5-Star.
- Weapon: Catalyst.
- Normal attack: Cooling Treatment.
- Elemental Skill: Surfshark Wavebreaker.
- Elemental Burst: Stormburst Shot.
- Passive one: Night Realm's Gift: Crests and Troughs - After Mualani's Nightsoul points are depleted, she can switch to consuming Phlogiston to maintain her Nightsoul's Blessing. While in an area with Phlogiston Devices within Natlan, Mualani can use Nightsoul Transmission: Mualani. When the active character is currently sprinting, swimming, in a movement mode caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, Mualani will enter the Nightsoul's Blessing state and gain 40 Nightsoul points, when switching to Mualani. She can trigger Nightsoul Transmission every 10 seconds. Additionally, Mualani's Nightsoul point or Phlogiston consumption while moving on water during Nightsoul's Blessing is decreased to 25% while in Natlan, and to 65% when doing the same outside Natlan.
- Passive two: Heat-Resistant Freshwater Floater - When Sharky's Surging Bite hits an opponent, it will generate a Floater nearby. Mualani will restore 25 Nightsoul points when she picks up a Floater she has created. Only one such Floater can be created in this way during a single use of Nightsoul's Blessing.
- Passive three: Natlan's Greatest Guide - When a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Mualani will gain one stack of Wavechaser's Exploits, which lasts for 20 seconds, with a maximum of three stacks. When she uses Stormburst Shot, Mualani will clear all such stacks and increase the damage of this Stormburst Shot by 20%/30%/40% of her Max HP.
- Exploration bonus: The Key is to Keep Smiling! - While in an area with Phlogiston Devices within Natlan, interacting with some collectibles can restore 15 Phlogiston. Additionally, the location of Natlan local speciality materials is displayed on the minimap.
Mualani normal attack - Cooling Treatment
Mualani performs up to three rapid attacks of Hydro damage, if tapping the normal attack button. Holding it down instead makes Mualani consume stamina to smack a Pufferball into the air that deals AOE (Area of Effect) Hydro damage upon landing.
As with most plunging attacks, Mualani strikes the ground below dealing AOE Hydro damage upon impact, and damaging any enemies caught on her path to the ground.
Mualani Elemental Skill - Surfshark Wavebreaker
Mualani can surf at any place, any time, and after using her Skill, Mualani will gain 60 Nightsoul points and enter her Nightsoul's Blessing state.
Nightsoul's Blessing: Mualani continuously consumes Nightsoul points, and when they are depleted, or when the skill is used again, Mualani's Nightsoul's Blessing will end. The Nightsoul's Blessing: Mualani state itself has the following traits:
- Mualani Mounts the Sharky Surfboard, increasing her movement speed. Mualani can move on water and in liquid Phlogiston while this state is active, and she will take no damage from the latter.
- Normal attacks will be converted to Sharky's Bites, dealing Hydro damage based on Mualani's Max HP with the Nightsoul attribute. Sharky's Bites can take place in mid-air. damage dealt this way is considered normal attack damage.
- When Mualani makes contact with opponents in this state, she applies 'Marked as Prey' to them, gaining one Wave Momentum stack, with a maximum of three stacks. One stack can be gained every 0.8 second, per opponent.
When Mualani uses Sharky's Bite, the damage dealt increases based on her Wave Momentum stacks. When she has three stacks, a normal attack will use Sharky's Surging Bite instead, further increasing her damage and cancelling all stacks thereafter.
When Shark Bite hits opponents Marked as Prey, that mark is removed, and Mualani will fire Shark Missiles at up to five nearby opponents Marked as Prey, dealing damage to them equal to this Sharky's Bite instance and clearing their Marks. If more than one opponent is the target of Sharky's Bite and Shark Missiles, the damage dealt will decrease, with 28% being the maximum decrease when at least three opponents are targeted.
Mualani Elemental Burst - Stormburst Shot
Mualani fires a Super Shark Missile that can track opponents, dealing AOE Hydro damage based on Mualani's Max HP.

Mualani Ascension materials
Just like Talents, you need to use Mualani Ascension materials to upgrade her health, attack, defence, and Critical hit effectiveness.
Based off the same honeyhunterworld beta leaks, it looks like you'll need to farm a lot of Sprayfeather Gill and Whistle materials for Mualani to fully upgrade her capabilities.

There is also Acquaint Fate rewarded for reaching certain Ascension levels. You can spend this Fate on the standard and beginner Banners to Wish for characters and weapons.
Here's what Mualani Ascension materials and Mora you need to upgrade her for each Ascension level:

Mualani Constellations
By getting duplicates of Mualani from wishing on her Banner, you will receive her Stella Fortuna. This material allows you to unlock Constellation levels, with each upgrade either improving an existing Talent or Passive ability.
With thanks to honeyhunterworld again for sourcing this leaked beta information, here are all of Mualani's Constellations in Genshin Impact:
- The Leisurely "Meztli" (C1): Mualani's Nightsoul point and Phlogiston consumption in Nightsoul's Blessing is decreased to 70% while not in combat. Additionally, the first Sharky's Surging Bite she performs once she enters Nightsoul's Blessing and the Shark Missiles this Bite triggers deal 75% of her maximum HP as increased damage. This damage is subject to the damage decrease rules imposed by Surfshark Wavebreaker.
- Mualani, Going All Out! (C2): Mualani gains two of Surfshark Wavebreaker's Wave Momentum stacks when she enters Nightsoul's Blessing, and she will gain one stack when obtaining a Floater. Additionally, aside from pre-existing Nightsoul point regeneration, Mualani also restores 20 Nightsoul points in the four seconds after she obtains a Floater.
- Surfing Atop Joyous Seas (C3): Increases the Level of Mualani's Elemental Skill by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
- Sharky Eats Floaters (C4): Mualani regenerates seven Energy when obtaining a Floater, and Stormburst Shot deals 200% increased damage.
