How to play Chiori in Genshin Impact

Chiori is a 5-star Geo character who debuted in Genshin Impact Version 4.5💯. She has some interesting synergy with other Geo units and their constructs. So how do you make the best use o🍨f Chiori?

In most cases, Chiori’s playstyle will be to use her Skill twice in quick succession, then attack with another character. Using Chiori’s Ski𓄧ll twice wi💮ll automatically switch to the next character in your team lineup.

Chiori’s dolls

Chiori’s primary source of damage is ಌthe dolls conjured by her Skill. Using her Skill creates a doll named Tamoto. Tamoto stays on-field when Chiori switches out and will automatically atta🅷ck enemies once every 3.6 seconds for a total of four hits.

Enemies do not have to take damage to trigger Tamoto’s attacks. Tamoto functions likᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚe a turret and will attack enemies in this way even when they’re shielded. Tamoto stays where it is summoned and has decent range, with a small AoE on it꧙s hits.

If there is a Geo construct on the field, Chiori will summon an additional Tamoto for a total of two dolls. You can either use Chiori’s Skill first or create the c𒅌onstruct first, the💮 order does not matter. Creating a construct while one Tamoto is on-field will summon another Tamoto with its own independent duration.

Ending Chiori’s Skill

After casting Chiori’s Skill, you c♏an follow up with either another Skill press or Normal Attack.

Using her Skill twice in a row will automatically swap Chiori out for the next character in your team. It will also grant Tamoto two more instances of damage when your nex♌t character uses a Normal, Charged,💧 or Plunging Attack.

Using Chiori’s Normal Attack right after her Skill will cause Chiori to gain a Geo infusion on her Normal Attacks. While this lets Chiori deal Geo damage while on-field, these Normal Attacks will still scale with her ATK stat, which you normally won’t build for. I don’t rec🧸ommend using her Geo infusion unless you specifiꦇcally want her on-field.

Best teams for Chiori

Having a Geo construct on the field practically doubles Chiori’s damage. You sh🍸ould pair Ch💧iori with a Geo teammate who can create constructs. The list includes:

• Albedo
• Arataki Itto
• Geo Traveler
• Ningguang
• Zhongli

Having more than one construct does not create more dolls, but many Geo characters have synergy with other Geo characters anyway. You might as well lean into it with a primarily Geo-focused team. If you don’t want to go all-in on a full Geo team, you can try double Geo instead to take advantage of Geo Resonance. Some examples of Chiori’s teams include:

• Chiori – Itto/Noelle – Gorou – Albedo/Zhongli
• Chiori – Noelle – Furina – Albedo/Zhongli
• Chiori – Navia – Albedo/Zhongli – Fischl
• Chiori – Ningguang – Furina – Charlotte/Mika
• Chiori – Ningguang – Bennett – Fischl/Xiangling
• Chiori – Lyney/Wanderer – Bennett – Zhongli

However you choose to play Chiori, the most important thing is to🦄 have fun. If you have an idea that’s not represented here, try it out and see if it works for you!
