Best Build for Sayu in Genshin Impact

Sayu is a new character from Genshin Impact which was released at the same time as Yoimiya. He is the first character to wield a Claymore weapon but with wind or Anemo elements. In addition, the kit he has provides unique potential for his team.

Best Build for Sayu in Genshin Impact

Here are the best builds for Sayu in Genshin Impact.

Best Weapon for Sayu

Sayu has a kit that is actually quite self-contained and can be paired with multiple teams. But the one weakness he had was his Elemental Burst price which was quite high. For this reason he needed a weapon that gave him additional Energy Recharge.

  • Favonius Greatsword: For Energy Recharge needs, there is no better choice than the Favonius group of weapons. This weapon provides a very high Energy Recharge and will meet your energy needs without the help of Artifacts. The effect can also provide additional energy which is certainly more helpful.
  • Katsuragikiri Nagamasa: Another Claymore that provides additional Energy Recharge is the new Claymore which was introduced in patch 2.0. This weapon does not provide as much energy as the Favonius Greatsword, but in exchange you can get Elemental Skill damage that is greater than this weapon.

Best Artifact for Sayu

Sayu’s Elemental Skill and Burst will get stronger based on her Attack. This means you need to look for Attack, Anemo Damage, and Critical Damage/Rate stats on the Artifact he uses. For a suitable set, you can choose one of the two options below.

  • Viridescent Veneers (4): Because it relies on Anemo’s damage, the Viridescent set will certainly be very suitable for Sayu. This set not only increases the damage of Anemo and Swirl, but also reduces the opponent’s Resistance which means greater damage potential.
  • Noblesse Obligations (4): Because it can act as support, using the Noblesse set for Sayu is also not a bad choice if your team doesn’t have a Noblesse holder. The effect will be useful not only to your Elemental Burst but to your team as a whole.

Best Lineup for Sayu

As an Anemo character, Sayu actually fits into any lineup. The mobility he gives through Elementa Skill makes him ideal for teams with DPS melee characters. But other than that, he also has Elemental Burst which is suitable for characters that have a large and long-lasting AoE effect.

Ganyu is one of the best choices to pair with Sayu. It has an Elemental Burst that lasts a very long time and also has a very large area. In addition, there is also Mona who can pull opponents to the Sayu Elemental Burst position. Then if you need help gathering enemies to the Sayu Elemental Burst area, you can bring one more Anemo character like Venti or Sucrose.
