Eula Build Guide, Best Artifacts, Weapons and Talent Priority

Eula is built as an on-field Physical DPS while dealing a huge amount of her damage via the use of Eula's Elemental Burst.

  2. Wolf's Gravestone
  3. Skyward Pride

Best Artifacts
  1. Pale Flame
Main Stats
  • Sand Stats: ATK %
  • Goblet Stats: Physical DMG
  • Circlet Stats: CRIT Rate > DMG
Substat Priority
  1. Energy Recharge to requirements
  2. CRIT Rate / DMG
  3. ATK %
Talent Priority
  1. Normal Attack
  2. Elemental Burst
  3. Elemental Skill

Eula's best weapon is her signature weapon Song of Broken Pines, with it having an incredibly high base ATK and also providing Physical DMG % making it perfect for your build. Because Eula's build scales on ATK, there are a large amount of viable 5-star Claymores. Some 4-star options include Serpent Spine and also "Ultimate Overlord's Mega Magic Sword".

Build Eula with Pale Flame, it is by far Eula's best artifact set which was clearly made with her in mind. She can easily maintain the 2 stacks of 9% ATK increase making it easy for her to have the buffed 2-piece effect as a result.

Build recommendations assume a "decently built" level of artifact rolls alongside Eula's best weapon. Using other weapons may increase or decrease certain stats relative to these recommendations.

  • HP: 18,000 - 21,000
  • ATK: 2000 - 2400
  • Energy Recharge: 120 - 150%
  • CRIT Rate: 60 - 70%
  • CRIT DMG: 130 - 155%
  • Physical DMG: 83.3 - 104.0%

Combos and How to Play Eula

Eula's Elemental Skill Icetide Vortex can be pressed or held providing different effects accordingly. Pressing gives stacks of Grimheart while Holding uses the stacks to deal increased damage and lowering both the Physical and Cryo RES of enemies.

Eula's Elemental Burst Glacial Illumination is your main source of damage. Upon use, a Lightfall Sword will follow Eula for 7s. Attacks deals to opponents from Eula during this time will add a stack to the Lightfall Sword therefore increasing its Physical DMG at the end of the 7-second mark or when you swap to another character. This makes Eula's damage very backloaded, only occurring once a full rotation has been completed.

Eula's main combo to gain Lightfall stacks is:

  • Icetide Vortex Tap
  • Glacial Illumination
  • Favonius Bladework - Edel x4
  • Icetide Vortex Hold
  • Favonius Bladework - Edel x4

With Attack SPD buffs, you can do alternate rotations such as a 5th Normal Attack at the end of the rotation giving you an additional stack.

Eula's Best Team Comps

Eula's best teams always involve an Electro character as well as Cryo characters to create Superconduct reactions. This reduces Physical@ RES by 40%. Without other Elemental Reactions taking place Eula can only really fill Physical based roles. Eula's most common non-standard team is Hyperbloom teams.

5.1.

Eula DPS Teams

Main DPS Sub DPS Sub DPS Support
Eula Raiden Shogun Rosaria Zhongli
Eula Escoffier Yelan Furina

Eula is often used in Physical-centric teams using characters such as Raiden Shogun or Fischl and some Cryo units to focus on Superconduct's buffs. Alternatively, Eula can be used in Cryo-centric teams mainly using Escoffier who is half-carrying with their impressive personal damage alongside Cryo RES Shred.

5.2.

Plunge Eula Teams

Main DPS Support Support Support
Eula Xianyun Bennett Furina

As a claymore character, Eula is a great option for plunge teams using Xianyun. Xianyun helps to generate fanfare for Furina who provides massive buffs. If this is the team you plan to use exclusively, it would be worth changing artifact sets to the Long Night's Oath set.
