Best Albedo Builds

OFF-FIELD DPS Albedo is a character that can summon a Geo Construct from his Elemental Skill, dealing damage on a 2-second interval whenever enemies in the field are damaged. His Elemental Burst provides 125 EM to the party, which is beneficial on teams that rely on amplification reactions, such as Vaporize. However, 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. Another option is to build him with ATK-DEF Hybrid, which results in lower Skill damage but higher Burst damage. SKILL ONLY Regarding Weapon Choices: - Harbinger of Dawn: Offers a lot of Crit stats, making it one of the strongest weapons for Albedo despite being a 3-star weapon. However, you need to keep Albedo's HP at 90% or higher to benefit from the passive, which can be challenging against enemies with HP-lowering debuffs. - Mistsplitter Reforged: Realistically, you can only get 2 stacks of this weapon's passive, which requires setup. It's generally better to use Harbinger of Dawn and give Mistsplitter Reforged to another sword DPS character. - Freedom-Sworn: Decreases Albedo's own damage significantly but is a good option for buffing other party members. - Wolf-Fang: Performs better than Harbinger of Dawn at R5 due to its unconditional passive. Note that the Crit Rate passive does not stack off-field, but you can perform Skill>N1>Swap character for two stacks instead of one. SKILL + BURST Regarding Weapon Choices: - Harbinger of Dawn: Offers a lot of Crit stats, making it one of the strongest weapons for Albedo despite being a 3-star weapon. However, you need to keep Albedo's HP at 90% or higher to benefit from the passive, which can be challenging against enemies with HP-lowering debuffs. - Mistsplitter Reforged: Realistically, you can only get 2 stacks of this weapon's passive, which requires setup. It's generally better to use Harbinger of Dawn and give Mistsplitter Reforged to another sword DPS character. - Freedom-Sworn: Decreases Albedo's own damage significantly but is a good option for buffing other party members. - Wolf-Fang: Performs better than Primordial Jade Cutter at R5. Note that the Crit Rate passive does not stack off-field, but you can perform Burst>Skill>N1>Swap character for more stacks. OFF-FIELD DPS Regarding Artifact Sets: - Husk of Opulent Dreams (4): Provides DEF and Geo DMG bonus, but you need to either wait ~12 seconds before starting a domain/fight to reach max stacks or recast his skill to benefit from the set effect. - Golden Troupe (4): Performs similarly to Husk of Opulent Dreams (4) with Cinnabar Spindle, but worse with Harbinger of Dawn. It also performs worse if Albedo uses his Burst. - Tenacity of the Millelith (4): Provides good uptime on Albedo, but decreases Elemental Skill damage significantly compared to other offensive sets. - Noblesse Oblige (4): Can be used on Albedo if you don't have another character with this set. You may want to get Energy Recharge substats to maintain Elemental Burst uptime. - Archaic Petra (4): A niche option for Albedo, providing lower personal damage but can be a reasonable option for buffing other characters. Regarding Artifact Substats Priority: - ATK% and Energy Recharge substats are only valuable on a Hybrid Albedo that casts his Elemental Burst.
