Razor with EB (Elemental Burst) active grants you an Electro Status when you basic attack, allowing for status-cleansing (no particular effective element). This can only be done on Razor himself.
To utilize this effect, consider the following team composition:
- Razor (main DPS)
- Electro Sub DPS (e.g., Keqing or Beidou)
- Anemo Support (e.g., Qiqi or Sucrose)
- Geo Support (e.g., Ningguang or Albedo)
For optimal results, consider the following build recommendations:
- 2-Piece Gladiator Set for increased Elemental Mastery
- 2-Piece Shimenawa Set for increased Elemental Burst DMG
- EM-boosting artifacts (e.g., Viridescent Venerer)
When farming for Razor, consider the following locations:
- Winds of the Dawn (Winds of the Dawn)
- Winds of the Dawn (Winds of the Dawn)
Note: The above team composition and build recommendations are subject to change based on future updates and balance changes.
Talents Priority
Razor focuses 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:
- Favonius Greatsword: This weapon sacrifices some of Razor's potential reaction damage for team energy.
- Wolf's Gravestone: While the passive is inactive, this weapon outperforms Skyward Pride in every scenario except crowd battles.
- Beacon of the Reed Sea: Weapon ranking assumes one stack, at two stacks it outperforms the other weapon options.
- Redhorn Stonethresher: Depending on the amount of ATK% buffs you're getting, this weapon can overtake Wolf's Gravestone in personal damage.
- The Unforged: The playstyle with this weapon becomes a lot more comfortable without having to worry about snapshotting Wolf's Gravestone / Song of Broken Pines buffs for Sub DPSes, while also granting more Shield Bonus for better Shield uptime. A shielder is required for this, with Zhongli being the most ideal option.
- Serpent Spine: At [C6] and high refinement Serpent Spine, it is better to run an ATK% Goblet over Physical Damage%. This is due to the oversaturation of damage bonuses (ascension stat + Serpent Spine) in addition to the fact that Electro accounts for a significant portion of Razor's damage. An in-depth explanation can be found here. It is also worth noting that an [R5] Serpent Spine with max stacks can outperform all 5✩ weapons at [R1].
- Skyward Pride: This weapon is viable with a Physical DMG goblet, as the damage dealt through its passive scales with Physical.
Regarding Artifact Sets:
- Pale Flame (2) Bloodstained Chivalry (2): This set is better if your ATK% is covered by your substats, otherwise you would be better off running Gladiator's Finale (4). This is only recommended to those who have no immediate access to a decent Pale Flame (4) set, otherwise you would be better off investing on Pale Flame pieces, regardless of weapon choice.
