Bester Candace Build: Waffen, Artefakte und Teams (v7.1)

BUFF SUPPORT

BUFF SUPPORT Build

Waffen

1

Favonius-Lanze

Aufladerate

Particle generation on CRIT hits refunds energy for the whole team, which is the whole point of running a low-damage support. Needs some CRIT Rate from substats to proc reliably.

2

Grasschnittstrahl

Aufladerate

Massive Energy Recharge converts into ATK after the Burst, so Energy Recharge sands stop being a pure stat tax. Strongest pick when the team already has energy covered.

3

Homa-Stab

KSCH

Use only if the kit scales off HP or you want a damage-leaning hybrid; CRIT DMG and HP-to-ATK conversion do nothing for a pure buffer.

4

Duelllanze

KT

Cheap CRIT Rate and ATK make it a filler option for Favonius Lance-style proc builds or when you want personal damage on the side.

5

„Der Fang“

Aufladerate

Free option: Energy Recharge plus Burst DMG and CRIT Rate on the Burst, letting sub-DPS Burst casts contribute between buffs.

6

Sternsichel-Prototyp

Aufladerate

Craftable Energy Recharge stick with a Skill-triggered ATK buff, giving her some self-damage while keeping Burst uptime high.

7

Himmelsgrat

Aufladerate

Energy Recharge substat plus passive CRIT Rate and attack speed; the free proc offers minor extra hits without demanding a rotation change.

8

Schwarze Quaste

LP%

Budget HP stat stick when the shield or buff scales off HP and nothing better is unclaimed. No support utility beyond the raw stat.

Artefakte

1

Schriftrolle des Recken der aschenen Stadt

4

4pc hands the team 12% Elemental DMG Bonus and the wearer 28% when a matching Hydro reaction triggers — the biggest single buff a support set can give a carry. 2pc adds Elemental Mastery.

2

Wappen des getrennten Schicksals

4

Only worth it if her Burst actually does damage or has huge cost; converts Energy Recharge into Burst DMG instead of team buffs.

4pc gives the party +120 Elemental Mastery after any reaction, which is competitive in Vaporize, Hyperbloom, and Bloom teams. Four-star stat rolls are the tradeoff.

In some teams, Candace's held Skill CD is too long for rotations. If she isn't C4, avoid getting hit and tap Skill as quickly as possible.

BUFF SUPPORT
Candace is a 4★ Hydro support: off-field Hydro application from an HP-scaling Burst, Hydro infusion for Sword/Claymore/Polearm autos via Prayer of the Crimson Crown, and defensive utility from her Skill.
Her kit trades ceiling for flexibility — damage trails Xingqiu, healing trails Hydro healers. Build for uptime instead: stack Energy Recharge to keep her Burst, her main application source, online.

WEAPONS
Favonius Lance: BIS. Solo Hydro needs ~300% ER; with a second Hydro unit, 200–250%.
Each passive proc shaves ~20% off that requirement — prioritize CRIT Rate to keep procs flowing.
Engulfing Lightning: Next best; a large Energy Recharge stat stick.
Staff of Homa / Deathmatch: For personal damage, mainly notable at C6.
"The Catch": Best F2P option — high ER plus Burst DMG and Burst CRIT Rate.

ARTIFACTS
Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City (4): Grants a 12% team DMG Bonus even off-Natlan; the 2-pc refunds Flat Energy on Nightsoul Burst.
Emblem of Severed Fate (4), or 2-pc EoSF + 2-pc Hydro DMG/Noblesse: the 2-pc's 20% ER is the baseline, 4-pc converts stacked ER into Burst DMG. Heavily contested — 2+2 is a fine fallback.
