CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG

Razor tends to prefer his Tap Skill over his Hold Skill for its cooldown advantage.
Razor's Burst resets the cooldown of his Elemental Skill, as such Elemental Skill > Burst > Elemental Skill is the standard opener for Razor's combos.
To maximize Razor's damage output, consider the following:

  • Use Razor's Tap Skill for its cooldown advantage
  • Utilize Razor's Burst to reset his Elemental Skill cooldown
  • Follow the standard opener: Elemental Skill > Burst > Elemental Skill

HYPERBLOOM / REACTION DPS Build

Razor is a DPS character who focuses on using his Burst and Skill to deal high Electro damage, while also having non-negligible Normal Attack damage from his Claymore attacks. He is not incredibly reliant on other characters, but it does help his Energy Recharge requirements and slightly increases his damage.
Regarding Weapon Choices:

  • Talking Stick: Ranking assumes Razor is being used with Bennett. If Razor is not used with Bennett, this weapon is much worse.
  • Skyward Pride: Gains significant value in teams where Razor's Energy Recharge requirements are higher.
  • Tidal Shadow: If Razor cannot be healed, this weapon ranks lower than Earth Shaker.
  • Earth Shaker: Assumes a teammate can trigger a Pyro reaction, otherwise, use other weapons.

Regarding Artifact Sets:
  • Marechaussee Hunter (4): If Razor is used with Furina, this artifact set is roughly equal to A Day Carved from Rising Winds.

Razor can also be built as a Hyperbloom / REACTION DPS character, focusing on using his Burst's Electro to trigger Hyperbloom. If you have C6 Bennett, you can infuse Razor's Normal Attacks with Pyro to trigger Hyperbloom, Burgeon, and Overload.
Regarding Weapon Choices for Hyperbloom / REACTION DPS:
  • Favonius Greatsword: This weapon sacrifices some of Razor's potential reaction damage for team Energy.
