When using Albedo's Elemental Skill, it is possible to summon a Silver Isotoma on top of a boss as long as the initial cast hits the opponent.
This can be a useful game mechanic to keep in mind when fighting against bosses, especially in Domains or Spiral Abyss.
To maximize the effectiveness of Albedo's Elemental Skill, consider building him with high Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) to allow for more frequent skill casts.
Some recommended Artifact sets for Albedo include:

  • Abyssal Dominion
  • Archaic Petra

When using Albedo in a team, consider pairing him with characters that can provide Elemental Reactions such as Melt or Freeze to increase overall damage output.

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.
Regarding Weapon Choices:

  • Peak Patrol Song: Make sure you Normal Attack twice before using his Skill with this weapon.
  • Harbinger of Dawn: Albedo's Elemental Skill scales with Defense, which is why the Base ATK from the weapon doesn't matter that much. Harbinger of Dawn offers a lot of Crit stats which is why it is one of the strongest weapons for him despite being a 3 star weapon. The downside of this weapon is that you'd need to keep Albedo's HP at 90% or higher to benefit from the passive, so it might be annoying to use against certain enemies which has a HP lowering debuff, even when off-field, such as Corrosion.

Regarding Artifact Sets:
  • 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.
  • Golden Troupe (4): With Peak Patrol Song and Cinnabar Spindle, this set performs similarly to Husk of Opulent Dreams (4), and slightly better than Husk of Opulent Dreams (4) with the addition of Gorou and another Geo teammate assuming Spindle still. With Harbinger of Dawn however, this set performs worse than Husk of Opulent Dreams (4). It performs worse if Albedo uses his Burst.
  • 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.
