In our guide, we'll cover everything you need to know to get the most out of your Faruzan, from building the best Artifacts and Weapons to important stat priorities and rotations.

Best Weapons for Faruzan

Listed below are Faruzan's best weapons. While weapons are listed in a priority order, what's best to build on your Faruzan can vary depending on the exact team composition and level of investment you want to put into Faruzan.

Favonius Warbow R5

Windfall

Base ATK: 454

Energy Recharge: 61.3%

CRIT Hits have a 60% / 70% / 80% / 90% / 100% chance to generate a small amount of Elemental Particles, which will regenerate 6 Energy for the character. Can only occur once every 12s / 10.5s / 9s / 7.5s / 6s.

Elegy for the End R1

The Parting Refrain

Base ATK: 608

Energy Recharge: 55.1%

A part of the "Millennial Movement" that wanders amidst the winds. Increases Elemental Mastery by 60 / 75 / 90 / 105 / 120. When the Elemental Skills or Elemental Bursts of the character wielding this weapon hit opponents, that character gains a Sigil of Remembrance. This effect can be triggered once every 0.2s and can be triggered even if said character is not on the field. When you possess 4 Sigils of Remembrance, all of them will be consumed and all nearby party members will obtain the "Millennial Movement: Farewell Song" effect for 12s. "Millennial Movement: Farewell Song" increases Elemental Mastery by 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 / 200 and increases ATK by 20% / 25% / 30% / 35% / 40%. Once this effect is triggered, you will not gain Sigils of Remembrance for 20s. Of the many effects of the "Millennial Movement," buffs of the same type will not stack.

Faruzan's Stat Priority

: Energy Recharge % > ATK %

: Anemo DMG > ATK %

: CRIT Rate

Substats: ER to requirements > CRIT Rate / CRIT Damage > ATK %

When building Faruzan's stats, the most important thing is always Energy Recharge. CRIT Rate should also be highly prioritized, to increases the chances of activating Favonius Warbow's effect. After achieving high Energy Recharge and CRIT Rate, CRIT Damage and ATK % can be focused on to improve Faruzan's personal damage.

Recommended Stats for Faruzan

Build recommendations assume a "decently built" level of artifact rolls alongside Faruzan's best 4 star weapon, Favonius Warbow. Using other weapons may increase or decrease certain stats relative to these recommendations.

The main variable with these stats will be Energy Recharge, as you can need vastly different amounts from team to team.

Faruzan's Talent Priority

Faruzan's Elemental Burst is the most important Talent to level as this increases her Anemo DMG % buff. Faruzan's Skill should be leveled next, as this is where most of her damage comes from at 6. Her Normal Attack talent is not an important part of her kit and can be left unleveled.

How to Play Faruzan

Faruzan's playstyle is very simple - you cast her Burst, then swap to the next character. If Faruzan is not C6, she should cast her Skill and perform a Charged Attack, as she won't make any Anemo particles otherwise.

Once Faruzan's Burst is active, she will be providing all of her buffs. Because Faruzan's buffs have long durations, she will usually be used as the first character in the rotation, and should swap to the next support after.

Faruzan's Best Constellations

Most of Faruzan's Constellations are primarily focused around improving her supportive capabilities and decreasing her Energy Requirements. C2 increases her Burst duration by 6 seconds, making her buff uptimes much better.

If you are unable to get Faruzan to C6, it is recommended to try and get her to at least C2. But Faruzan's Constellation 6 greatly improves her entire kit, not only giving her much more buffing via the Anemo CDMG% and allowing her to use the Tenacity set, but also allowing her to deal her Skill damage from off-field. This allows her to produce Anemo particles from off-field, greatly decreasing the Energy requirements of herself and the rest of the team.

Furthermore, since Faruzan will no longer need to perform a Charged Shot to produce particles, her field time becomes much lower, allowing for shorter rotations. All these factors combined result in a night and day difference once you get Faruzan to C6, and getting her there as fast as possible should be your priority.
