5
Peak Patrol Song

DEF%

DEF% substat and passive that converts DEF into DMG Bonus after Normal Attacks; ideal for the N4E weave and DEF-scaling damage.

6
Splendor of Tranquil Waters
Splendor of Tranquil Waters

CRIT DMG

High CRIT DMG stat stick, but passive favors HP-scaling; only use if her talents scale with HP or you need the CRIT stat.

7
Haran Geppaku Futsu
Haran Geppaku Futsu

CRIT Rate

Boosts Normal Attack DMG after Skill use, matching the N4E combo; high base ATK and CRIT Rate ease building.

8
Athame Artis

CRIT Rate

Budget reaction sword: after triggering Lunar-Crystallized, grants ATK and Elemental Mastery, boosting her damage.

9
Flute of Ezpitzal
Flute of EzpitzalR5

DEF%

Accessible DEF-scaling option: passive increases DEF and converts it to Normal Attack DMG, a budget version of Uraku Misugiri.

Artifacts

Best-in-slot: directly amplifies Lunar-Crystallized damage and CRIT stats after triggering Moonsign effects.

2-piece DEF +30%; 4-piece stacks DEF and Geo DMG Bonus—great if damage scales off DEF and stacks are maintained.

Simple 2-piece DEF +30% or equivalent; use as filler if lacking a full 4-piece, prioritizing DEF and CRIT substats.

Zibai needs a second Moonsign teammate to unlock most of her damage.
Full combo: Skill → 4×[N4E]; swap one N4E for N1QBurst when available.
Condensed: E n4 n4 E n1E n1E QE — no extra damage and tends to land inside teammates' Skill cooldowns; use only for front-loaded damage.
Slower off-field Hydro appliers often mistime Lunar-Crystallized, so stay flexible.

Zibai on-field DPS: builds stacks with Normal Attack and Lunar-Crystallized to use enhanced Skill. Needs field time for all 4 Skill charges and full Normal Attack chain.
Weapons: Harbinger of Dawn [R5] assumes 90% passive uptime; without healing/shielding, worse than Flute of Ezpitzal [R5]. Splendor of Tranquil Waters assumes no HP fluctuation. Light of Foliar Incision assumes 28 stacks. Haran Geppaku Futsu assumes max stacks. Uraku Misugiri assumes doubled passive. Detailed comparisons here.

Moonlit Courser

Moonlit Courser

Moonlit Courser icon
Default

Zibai's outfit, made out of silk and hemp. It is said that thousands of years ago, the ancient nation of Lang-Gan possessed exquisite weaving techniques that were brought down to the mortal world by Zibai, a messenger from the high heavens. Ages passed, that old kingdom and its long history faded away, scattered by time until they became as elusive as the moon's reflection on water. Yet their craft has somehow endured. Even now, it still lives on in every pulley and wooden frame of the spinning wheels in Liyue Harbor.
