Looking for the best Genshin Impact Razor builds? Razor is Princess Mononoke of MiHoYo, a wolf boy who fights with his wild brothers by his side. A DPS Electro fighter armed with Claymore, Razor is a useful member of any side. He is a very reliable character, good at everything, but falls short in greatness. That said, as a four-star character, he was much easier to obtain than some of the more elite Genshin Impact individuals. Useful for players who want to avoid sacrificing their money to the gacha gods.
Genshin Impact can be funny, but with most of the characters being aristocrats, politicians, or actual gods, your party can get a little aloof. Razor, a boy raised in the wild who speaks in broken animalistic sentences, is a big foil to that. Oh, and he’s not bad at fighting either. So, here’s how to get Razor in Genshin Impact, and some builds for heroes once you’ve done that.
How to get Razor in Genshin Impact
Honestly, you’ll probably get the Razor by accident. He is part of the Wanderlust Invocation banner, a permanent promotion also home to five-star characters Diluc, Jean, Mona, Qiqi, and Keqing, as well as 13 other four-star characters and many weapons. Chances are you’ll go after a five-star character (with a measly 0.6 percent pull chance), but end up with Razor (which, along with 13 other four-stars on the banner, has a 2.2 percent pull chance).
Even if you don’t plan on landing Razor, she can still make a great party member if you know how to use her.
Genshin Impact Razor . overview
The Razor is a Claymore DPS fighter, and provides a mix of regular attacks, Electro damage, one-on-one combat, AoE damage, party buffs, and reload boosts. He was a real utility man, basically healing abilities far from being a Genshin Impact Swiss Army Knife. He probably wouldn’t make anyone’s dream team ahead of the five-star competition, but he’s an easy-going party member no matter who else you have in your ranks.
1) Normal attack : Steel Fang
• Normal Attack : Razor performs four consecutive non-Electrical attacks.
• Loaded Attack : Razor circled around and attacked all nearby enemies, ending with a powerful slash. This step drains stamina.
• Plunge Attack : Razor attacks and deals AOE damage on landing.
2) Elemental Skills : Claws and Thunder
Razor swings forward, dealing Electro damage via electric claws. For each hit, Razor will earn an Electro Sigil, stacking up to three. Charging Claw and Thunder with these Sigils will create an AoE storm dealing massive Electro damage.
3) Elemental Burst : Lightning Fang
Razor summons the Electro wolf to fight alongside him, increasing his Speed stats and electro resistance, and granting him Immunity to Electro-adjacent stats. The wolf itself will attack with Electro damage every time Razor launches a Normal Attack, but will disable Razor’s Charged Attack.

4) Passive
• Resurrection : Reduced Claw and Thunder cooldown by 18 percent.
• Starving : When Razor’s Energy drops below half, its recharge rate increases by 30 percent.
• Wolvensprint : Stamina consumption of all party members decreased by 20 percent.
5) Constellations
• Wolf Instinct : Razor gets a 10 percent increase in damage for 8 seconds after taking an Elemental Orb or Particle.
• Oppression : Razor’s Critical Hit Rate against enemies with less than 30 percent HP increased by 10 percent.
• Soul Companion : Increases Lightning Fang’s level by 3.
• Bite : Enemies have 15 percent lower Defense for seven seconds during Claw and Thunder storms.
• Sharpened Claws : Increases Claw and Thunder levels by 3.
• Lupus Fulguris : Razor Claymore charges every 10 seconds, with the next Normal Attack releasing lightning that deals 100 percent of Razor’s attack stats as Electro damage. Also, each non-Lightning Fang lightning strike grants Razor an Electro Sigil to charge claw and thunder.

Best Genshin Impact Razor build : Example setup
The Razor is best suited for the standard DPS role, with a focus on its Electro capabilities. However, you may already have some top-tier DPS fighters, and are looking for Razor to fill the gap. In this case, he can also act as a support fighter.
==== DPS ====
Four star weapon
The Razor is more likely to be used by F2P players who rarely pull packs, so it seems foolish to suggest pairing it with a five-star weapon you wouldn’t pull. This is the case, here’s the best alternative. Its five-star building can be found below, just in case.
• Aminus Prototype : On hit, Normal or Charged Attacks have a 50 percent chance to deal an additional 240 percent attack damage to enemies in low AoE. It can only happen once every 15 seconds.
Five star weapon
If you’re looking to pair the Razor with a five-star Claymore, look no further than Wolf’s Gravestone; A perfect weapon for a wolf cub.
• Wolf Tombstone : Increases attack by 20 percent. When hit, attacks against enemies with LESS than 30 percent HP increases all party member attacks by 40 percent for 12 seconds. It can only happen once every 30 seconds.
Artifact
• Gladiator’s Finale Set :2 share: 18 percent extra attack damage. 4 parts: 35 percent extra attack damage for Claymore attacks.
==== Support ====
Weapon
Razor must use the same weapon as the DPS recommendation, with the Artifact set changed.
Artifact
• Thundering Fury Set : 2 parts: Increases electro damage by 15 percent. 4 parts: Razor gets a 40 percent boost for all damage caused by Overloaded, Electro-Charged, and Superconduct.
