Albedo's Elemental Skill can be used to summon a Silver Isotoma on top of a boss, provided the initial cast hits the opponent. To achieve this, follow these steps:
- Cast Albedo's Elemental Skill on top of the boss.
- The initial cast must hit the opponent for the Silver Isotoma to be summoned.
- Albedo (main DPS)
- Qiqi (support)
- Beidou (offense)
- Keqing (offense)
- Winds of the Dawn (Sumeru)
- Wanderer's Troupe (Sumeru)
Albedo is a character that can summon a Geo Construct from his Elemental Skill which deals damage on a 2 second interval whenever enemies in the field are damaged. His Elemental Burst provides 125 EM to the party, which is good on teams that rely on amplification reactions, such as Vaporize. It is worth noting that since his stat priority is focused on DEF (Elemental Skill scaling), you might want to skip casting Elemental Burst if your team doesn't benefit from the 125 EM buff.
OFF-FIELD DPS
Regarding Weapon Choices:
- Peak Patrol Song: Make sure you Normal Attack twice before or after using his Skill with this weapon.
- Harbinger of Dawn: Assumes the passive is active. Without the passive active most of the time, this weapon is not worth using.
- Husk of Opulent Dreams (4): Due to Albedo's skill snapshotting upon cast, you need to either wait ~12 seconds before starting a domain/fight to reach max stacks or recast his skill to benefit from the DEF and Geo DMG bonus provided by the 4 piece set effect.
- Tenacity of the Millelith (4): This set is used for the 4 piece set effect which has good uptime on Albedo. Worth noting that this set decreases your Elemental Skill damage by a lot if compared to the other offensive sets.
- Archaic Petra (4): This set is a niche option for Albedo. It is lower personal damage than several other set options, but can be a reasonable option in some teams for buffing other characters. Do note that the 4pc bonus requires you to pick the shard up on Albedo.
- Goblet: DEF% is generally preferred for team damage unless Albedo already has, or is close to 3,000 DEF in combat.
