RAZOR BUILDS / STRATEGY

HP | ATK | ATK% | PHYSICAL%| CD%/CR%

Physical DPS: This is the best build for Razor since you can swap stats. If you can get physical DMG on his weapon than you can switch his Goblet from Physical% to ATK% or vice versa. Of course as a DPS you need him with as much ATK, CD, CR, and Physical DMG as possible. Adding ER on him is nice to get his burst back up more quickly.  

These are also general recommendations, you will need to alter your artifacts and stat builds based on what content you want to use this character for and what team you are using him/her with, however, these are consider among the best claymores for Razor. A general rule for DPS units are CR is roughly 50% of your CD. 

RAZOR CONSTELLATIONS

Wolf’s Instinct (Lvl 1): Picking up an Elemental Orb or Particle increases Razor’s DMG by 10% for 8s.

Suppression (Lvl 2): Increases CRIT Rate against opponents with less than 30% HP by 10%.

Soul Companion (Lvl 3):  Increases the Level of Lightning Fang by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Bite (Lvl 4): When casting Claw and Thunder (Press), opponents hit will have their DEF decreased by 15% for 7s.

Sharpened Claws (Lvl 5): Increases the Level of Claw and Thunder by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Lupus Fulguris (Lvl 6): Every 10s, Razor’s sword charges up, causing the next Normal Attack to release lightning that deals 100% of Razor’s ATK as Electro DMG.
When Razor is not using Lightning Fang, a lightning strike on an opponent will grant Razor an Electro Sigil for Claw and Thunder.

STRENGTHS / WEAKNESSES

STRENGTHS:

  • Razor is a strong Physical DPS carry in Genshin Impact!
  • Since he does physical damage he can be taken into almost any battle situation. 
  • Razor is immune to any Electro Reactions while in Burst.
  • She reduces time in exploration to collect rewards.

WEAKNESSES

  • Physical DPS characters lack elemental reaction stack damage. Towards the end game this is crucial to hitting big numbers for faster runs in Spiral Abyss. 
  • He’s a selfish carry since he has to stay on the field until his burst is over. 
  • He has a delay at the end of his normal combo making him vulnerable. 

RANKING

Combat Rating (8/10): His combat style is pretty straightforward. The only caveot is the delay after his normal combo. You’ll need to learn animation cancel to prevent his stalling. 

Exploration (10/10): He is a top notch character to have on your exploration team. His passive reduces sprinting stamina, and he’s a claymore which is great for mining ores, crystals, etc.

Spiral Abyss (7/10): He’s mostly a single target dps which makes it slower to clear this stage. 

Artifact Farming (8/10): He’s pretty strong here since you can use him in pretty much any dungeon.  

Normal/Weekly Bosses (8/10): He really shines in 1v1 fights. And again, is very flexible with each boss.
