Clorinde is a 5-star Electro DPS character in Genshin Impact with unique Bond of Life mechanics. Once you’ve learned how to play Clorinde, here are the best weapons and artifacts to maximize her d𒈔amag🅘e.
Clorinde’s best weapons in Genshin Impact
Absolution
Absolution is Clorinde’s best weapon. As her signature 5-star Sword, its passive is tailor-made for her Bond of Life mechanics, and Clorinde should have no trouble keeping u🎐ptime on its buff. Still, the di🌊fference in damage between Absolution and the other 5-stars below is not wide enough to justify gambling on the weapon banner.
Light of Foliar Incision / Haran Geppaku Futsu
Light of Foliar Incision and Haran Heppaku Futsu are good 5-star options if you don’t have Absolution. Their damage comes fairly🎉 close to her signature, since their passives are🎃 generally useful for Clorinde.
Primordial Jade Cutter / Uraku Misugiri
PJC and Uraku Misugiri don’t perf💮orm quite as well as the options above, but they’re still quite strong on Clorinde. Other 5-star Swords like Splendor of Tranquil Waters or Mistsplitter Reforged will also work fine if you happen to have them.
The Black Sword / Finale of the Deep
Black Sword and Finale of the Deep are the 4-star options for Clorinde. With Refinements, Black Sword can be competitive with the 5-stars above. Finale of the Deep is the F♐ontaine craftable weapon, and I recommend Refining it if possible.
Artifact sets for Clorinde in Genshin Impact
4pc Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy
Since Clorinde has Bond of Life built into her kit, 𓄧she synergizes well with 4pc Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy. If you’re farming from scratch, though, you may want to consider the 𒁏sets below. They’re almost as good in the right circumstances, and they may be more efficient to farm.
4pc Thundering Fury
4pc Thundering Fury can reduce 🅷Clorinde’s Skill cooldown, possibly allowing for shorter or more flexible rotations. Whether this is worth it really depends on your team. At best, Thundering Fury performs similarly to Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy. At worst, if you don’t use the reduced Skill cooldown, it’s roughly on par with Gladiator’s Finale.
4pc Gladiator’s Finale
If neither of the above sets appeal to you, 4pc Gladiator’s Finale is a good alt🌟ernative. While its damage potential is not as high, it’s very consistent, and you don’t need to worry about optimizing Clorinde’s team to make good use of her build.
Artifact stats to prioritize for Clorinde
| Sands | Goblet | Circlet |
| ATK Elemental Mastery | Electro DMG | CRIT Rate/DMG |
Clorinde does not rely on her Burst every rotation, so don’t worry a𒅌bout her Energy Recharge. Focus on offensive stats instead, like CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, ATK, and Elemental Mastery.
Pick a CRIT circlet that brings your CRIT Rate:CRIT DMG ratio cloღser to 1:2. This will primarily be determined by your weapon; if using a CRIT Rate weapon, try to𒀰 use a CRIT DMG circlet and vice versa.
