DPS Build

Weapons

Redhorn Stonethresher

CRIT DMG

Best-in-slot: CRIT DMG substat and DEF scaling boost both damage and durability. Its Charged Attack bonus makes extended spins hit hard; open/close the map or Handbook mid-spin once to bypass the 5s cap.

Serpent Spine

CRIT Rate

CRIT Rate substat and stacking DMG% reward uninterrupted Normal Attack chains. Run a shielder or dodge cleanly to keep all 5 stacks; at R5 it rivals 5-star options for crit consistency.

Skyward Pride

Energy Recharge

Energy Recharge substat and vacuum blades help Burst uptime and add off-field hits. Lower CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG ceiling than Redhorn, but a solid stat stick when you need smoother rotations.

Whiteblind

DEF%

Budget option: DEF substat and stacking ATK and DEF on hit suit a DEF-scaling kit. Weaker crit and base damage, so use only until a 5-star or Serpent Spine is available.

Artifacts

Husk of Opulent Dreams

2pc DEF +20% and 4pc Curiosity stacks add more DEF and Geo DMG. Best when running a Geo DPS; stacks build off-field or from on-field Geo hits.

Retracing Bolide

4pc gives +40% Normal Attack and Charged Attack DMG while shielded. Pair with a reliable shielder; strongest for the spin pattern and N3 dash-cancel when you can maintain the shield.

Gladiator's Finale

4pc ATK +18% and +35% Normal Attack DMG is a simple, unconditional boost for N1–N3 combos. Less value for Charged Attack spins, but easy to farm from bosses and strongboxes.

Marechaussee Hunter

4pc +15% Normal Attack and Charged Attack DMG, plus up to 36% CRIT Rate from HP changes. Excellent with Furina or self-drain; otherwise needs HP fluctuation to maintain stacks.

1–2 targets: N1>N2>N3>N4>dash/hop — cast time and knockback often make this unfeasible.
Multiple targets: N1>N2>N3>dash/hop.
Redhorn Stonethresher makes Charged Attack spins worth it: open/close the map or Adventurer's Handbook once mid-spin to bypass the 5s cap.

DPS
Only recommended for C6 Noelle: Burst converts an extra 50% DEF into ATK. Shields, heals, and AoE Geo damage make her a reliable on-field DPS when the team is built around her.
Weapons
Serpent Spine: With Husk of Opulent Dreams, prioritize Serpent Spine stacks over Husk stacks—they conflict (on-field vs off-field).
Skyward Pride: Take if lacking Energy Recharge substats. Strong while its passive is active, but falls off in sustained fights; a comfort pick that can lose to a high-refine Whiteblind with stacks.
Artifacts
Marechaussee Hunter (4): Best personal damage by a few percentage points when paired with Furina.
Husk of Opulent Dreams (4): Burst snapshots DEF. For full 4-stack DEF% on the first Burst, wait 12s off-field before swapping in. In Abyss, time before the chamber starts still generates stacks.
Driver
Best with multiple off-field DPS like Yelan, Xingqiu, or Fischl. Use Archaic Petra to buff the team while still leveraging AoE and defensive utility; her own damage matters but is secondary.
Main Stats
When driving with Furina, DEF% is scarce from weapon, set, and team buffs. Multiple DEF% main stats may be needed to offset Furina's HP drain, especially with high-HP units like Yelan.
