What’s the best Genshin Impact Faruzan build?

Faruzan is a four-star anemo bow wielder.She has a unique kit that focuses on decreasing enemy anemo resistance while also boosting ally anemo damage. This means that she excels as a support for anemo characters likeGenshin Impact’s Wanderer– and, if you get her have her at C6, she’s incredible valuable as a support forGenshin Impact’s Xiao.

Here’s a brief overview of our best Genshin Impact Faruzan build.


Best weapon	Elegy for the End
Weapon substitute	Skyward Harp Favonius Warbow
Best artifact set	Viridescent Venerer
Artifact substitutes	Noblesse Oblige Tenacity of the Milelith Emblem of Severed Fate
Main stats	Sands:energy recharge or attack% Goblet:anemo damage bonus Circlet:crit rate/crit damage
Sub stats	Energy recharge Crit rate/damage Attack% Attack

The best weapon for Faruzan is Elegy for the End, as it significantly boosts her elemental mastery and elemental recharge. In terms of artifacts, we recommend a full set of Viridescent Venerer or Noblesse Oblige, with stats boosting her energy rechargeabove all else, followed by crit and attack.

When leveling up Faruzan’s talents, you should prioritize her elemental burst first, followed by her elemental skill, then her normal attack. You should aim to get her burst to a minimum of level eight, as her anemo damage scales alongside it.

Building Faruzan as an anemo support is actually pretty easy – your priority above everything else is boosting her energy recharge to ensure that she can burst off cooldown in order to maximize the buffs she offers your anemo DPS.

She can also act as a general support, with her main role being grouping and shredding enemy elemental resistance. However, she faces some pretty steep competition in this role, with characters like Genshin Impact’s Kazuha and Genshin Impact’s Venti offering more value in the same slot.

How to use Faruzan

Faruzan’s kit is pretty easy to get your head around. In combat, she has two main combos that you can use.

Faruzan’s first combo is:

What’s the best weapon for Genshin Impact’s Faruzan?

The best five-star weapon for Genshin Impact’s Faruzan is Elegy for the End, as it offers a significant boost to her energy recharge and elemental mastery. Its skill also works well with her kit, as she can trigger it even when she’s off the field through her polyhedrons,and it buffs her allies’ attack and elemental mastery when she gathers four sigils.

Skyward Harp is also a popular choice for Faruzan, boosting her crit rate and crit damage through its base stat and skill. However, its skill isn’t as useful if you’re primarily using her as a quickswap or off-field support.

Alternatively, Favonius Warbow isundeniably Faruzan’s best four-star weapon, as an affordable option which can still pack a good punch and, in some situations, go toe to toe with Skyward Harp. It helps you navigate Faruzan’s energy issues,boosting her energy recharge and allowing her to regenerate elemental particles on hit. This is especially useful for Xiao teams, as it increases Faruzan’s ability to battery him.

If you don’t have any of these options available, you can use pretty much any bow that has an energy recharge base stat, such as End of the Line or Fading Twilight as a ‘stat stick’. Their skills aren’t as useful, but that all-important energy recharge certainly is.

Weapon	Effect	How to obtain
Elegy for an End	Base stat:energy recharge Skill:increases elemental mastery by 60. When the wielder’s elemental skills or bursts hit opponents, the wielder gains one Sigil of Remembrance. This effect can trigger every 0.2 seconds, even if the wielder is not on the field. When you possess four Sigils of Remembrance, you consume all of them, providing nearby party members with the Millennial Movement: Farewell Song effect for 12 seconds. This effect increases elemental mastery by 100 and attack by 20%. Once this effect triggers, you can’t gain Sigils of Remembrance for 20 seconds.	Gacha
Skyward Harp	Base stat:crit rate Skill:increases crit damage by 20%. Hits have a 60% chance to inflict a small AoE attack, dealing 125% physical attack damage. Can only occur once every four seconds	Gacha
Favonius Warbow	Base stat:energy recharge Skill:crit hits have a 60% chance to generate a small amount of elemental particles, which regenerate six energy for the character. This can only occur once every 12 seconds	Gacha

What are the best artifacts for Genshin Impact’s Faruzan?

Faruzan is a prime holder for either Viridescent Venerer or Noblesse Oblige if no one else on your team is using these sets. Both offer extremely useful team-wide buffs, though they don’t stack. Generally, we recommend prioritising VV over NO due to its powerful resistance shred.

If someone else on your team is holding Viridescent Venerer or Noblesse Oblige, Tenacity of the Milelithor Emblem of Severed Fate areboth decent situationaloptions for Faruzan, depending on your team comp and how you intend to use her. TotM’s skill’s activation is tied to Faruzan’s skill, and its uptime is only worthwhile if you have Faruzan at C6. On the other hand, EoSF is useful for boosting her energy recharge. However, VV is still her best-in-slot, so we recommend sticking to that unless you’re experimenting with your team comps.

Be sure to check out the Faruzan Mains sub-Reddit if you want to see some player-driven comparisons between different sets, or if you’d like some personal advice on your own build.

Artifact set	Effect	Where to get
Viridescent Venerer	Two equipped: anemo damage +15% Two equipped: increases swirl damage by 60%, and decreases opponent’s elemental resistance to the element infused in the swirl by 40% for ten seconds	Valley of Remembrance, Windwail Highland
Noblesse Oblige	Two equipped: elemental burst damage +20% Four equipped: increases all party members’ attack by 20% for 12 seconds after using an elemental burst. This effectdoesn’t stack	Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern, Minlin, Mt. Aozang
Tenacity of the Milelith	Two equipped: HP +20% Four equipped: upon hitting an enemy with an elemental skill, all nearby party members gain 20% attack and 30% shield strength for three seconds. You can trigger this effect once every 0.5 seconds, even if the equipping character isn’t on the field	Ridge Watch, Bishui Plain, Liyue
Emblem of Severed Fate	Two equipped: energy recharge +20% Four equipped: increases elemental burst damage by 25% of energy recharge. You can obtain a maximum of 75% bonus damage in this way	Momiji-Dyed Court, Yashiori Island, Inazuma

Faruzan artifact stat recommendations

When choosing artifacts for Faruzan, your main priority should always be energy recharge. Her energy recharge requirements go from 180% all the way up to 300% depending on how many anemo characters are on her team and whether you are allowing her to collect all the elemental particles she generates or funnelling them into your DPS.

If you intend to pair her up with another anemo character and have her share her particles with them, you should generally aim for around 250% or higher. If you want a more specific number suited to your personal line-up, check out Zakharov’s Energy Recharge Calculator.

What are the best Faruzan team comps?

As we mentioned earlier in the guide, Faruzan shines the brightest as an anemo support.She’s best suited to supporting on-field anemo DPS like Wanderer, Xiao, and Heizou.

The other two slots are flexible, and can go to another anemo character, an off-field DPS for elemental application, or a support that offers shields, healing, or further buffs.

Here are some examples of strong Genshin Impact Faruzan teams. Feel free to experiment and switch out the two flex slots depending on your playstyle and available characters. Click on the character icons if you want to check out their individual build guides.

Elemental burst:The Wind’s Secret Ways	Faruzan deploys a Dazzling Polyhedron that unleashes a Whirlwind Pulse and deals AoE anemo damage on impact. While the Dazzling Polyhedron persists, it continuously moves along a traingular path. Once it reaches each corner of that triangular path, it unleashes one more Whirlwind Pulse. When you unleash a Whirlwind Pulse, it applies Perfidious Wind’s Bale to nearby opponents, decreasing their anemo resistance.
