Make a build for Candace in Genshin impact may turn out to be an easier undertaking than players would assume, and it ties into how her character kit scales and what duties a player would want from Aaru's Village Guardian with her in your party. With the release of patch 3.1, Candace saw the release alongside Cyno, a five-star electro polearm that may have prompted players to shoot for the limited character banner alongside Candace. While the two characters don't synergize with each other, Candace certainly has her uses in different team compositions.
The stats a Candace build would want in Genshin Impact
Candace resembles a compatriot of the same element, Yelan. In the sense that his character kit is entirely dependent on HP. Different from Yelan though, is that she lacks abilities to act as a damage dealer. This lack of damage relegates her to a support position, where players occasionally replace her to block with her shield, and mainly to boost the team's damage with her elemental burst.
The stats a player would want on Candace are therefore reduced to just HP%, Flat HP, and Energy Recharge. HP to increase his scaling and refill energy to ensure the character is still able to trigger his elemental blast whenever he is out of refill.
Arms
The limited number of stats she wants as a character helps narrow down the selection of weapons that would suit her, and they are as follows:
| Five stars | Four stars | Honorable mention |
|---|---|---|
| thorn to the sky | The catch | black tassel |
| engulfing lightning | lance favonius |
Skyward Spine and Engulfing Lightning's secondary stats should explain why they would be viable options. Both greatly increase energy recharge. The same can be said for The Catch and Favonius Spear, with The Catch helping to boost Candace's elemental damage even further. If players want to use the Favonius Spear, they'll have to deal with the unfortunate caveat that requires crit rate to reliably trigger the Energy Particle passive.
Due to the reduced priority of wanting damage for Candace, The Black Tassel will be a surprisingly strong option for players who have Artifact Pieces with good Energy Recharge sub-stats that already provide Energy Recharge by Candice.
Engulfing Lightning is currently unavailable as it is a limited weapon, while The Catch will require a certain amount of fishing to refine and obtain.
Artifacts to consider for a Candace build in Genshin Impact
Due to the main stats and selective sub-stats Candace wants on her artifact set, the options players can choose from are handy, if limited:
- Circlet: HP %
- Sands: % HP/Energy Recharge
- Goblet: % HP
Aside from if the player has it equipped with the Black Tassel, players may be able to get away with using HP% sands if they use any of the other weapon options, along with decent sub stats in terms of recharging energy.
Artifact set options are more diverse, all centered around giving more power to his Elemental Burst, securing energy for his Elemental Burst, or providing team utility whenever possible while she uses her burst:
| Four pieces | Two pieces |
|---|---|
| Noblesse Obligate | Emblem of Broken Fate/Tenacity of the Millelith |
| Emblem of Broken Fate | Emblem of Broken Fate/Noblesse Oblige |
| Noblesse Oblige/Tenacity of the Millelith |
Noblesse is always a good idea to consider if the player doesn't have another 4-piece Noblesse user on the team. Due to how often Candace will trigger her ultimate, the set's attack buffs should prove consistent. On the other hand, it might be possible to argue that the two-piece mixed option of Emblem and Tenacity will prove more favorable compared to the four-piece Emblem set, due to the interest of the character to have the correct stats to boost it. his teammates, and less by increasing the damage of his Elemental Burst itself.
Candace Team Comps
Due to playing the role of a support, it is difficult to recommend building a character-centric team. Instead, it would be best to use Candace as a piece to complete other team compositions. His elemental burst is designed to increase normal attack damage and as such works best with focused damage dealers. normal attack. Being a hydro character also means that she will naturally fit better into teams with other hydro characters, serving as a battery while providing Hydro resonance.
| damage dealer | In synergy with | General utility |
|---|---|---|
| Ayato/Yoimiya | Xing Qiu | Zhongli/Kokomi |
| The razor | Rosaria/Kaeya | Bennet |
Depending on whether the player is leading a hydro, electro or cryo based team composition. Candace's place will depend on the roster of characters a player has. Consider the information above if you want to use Candace in your teams, but to do so at full efficiency you will first need to find Redcrests as she needs them for her ascension.
Genshin impact is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Android and iOS.
