Her ideal build may vary according on your team composition and your intended use, so be sure to read the sections below on weapons and artifacts for recommendations tailored to your tastes.

Regarding the optimal statistics for Beidou, we advise giving top priority.HP, attack%, crit, and energy recharge.You should upgrade her elemental burst first, followed by her elemental skill, and then her regular attack when it comes to her skills.

Beidou is more effective in a sub-DPS position and gains by having a healer, reaction driver, and another off-field DPS in addition to herself. For hyperbloom teams, she is an excellent fit. Additionally, she won't take responses from your hydro DPS since her burst doesn't activate dendro cores.

She depends a lot on her second constellation, and in order to perform to her best, she needs a strong battery and a reasonable investment in her equipment because of the high energy cost of her burst. She may, however, be a highly potent four-star unit with the ability to do some quite high damage overall.

How to Utilize Beidou

from Genshin ImpactYou must perfect the timing on Beidou's Perfect Counter parry elemental skill if you want to take full advantage of her. Once you have the hang of it, hitting it at the right moment may not come naturally to you.

Apart from that, because she "snapshots," which means that buffs only apply to her if they're active at the moment she begins her skill, you need to make sure you set up all of your buffs before she performs her burst. The ideal scenario is to start with a flawless counter after setting up your buffs, then explode immediately after. This not only saves time while doing the most damage, but it also enables you to amass counter particles to power up her next burst.

Her whole five-hit combination is bad for proccing Stormbreaker when it comes to standard attack rotations. Rather, as suggested by community theorycrafters, you should do one regular attack, then walk to end the animation. After that, you should repeat with another normal attack. This makes it simple for you to maximize discharges.
