SUCROSE BUILDS / STRATEGY

HP | ATK | EM | EM | EM

SUPPORT: This is hands down the best build to get the most use out of Sucrose. Focus on stacking her with as much EM as possible followed by ER%. This build lets you maximize her swirl reactions.

In the late game you can start adding damage on her with CR, CD, and ATK. It’s good to start adding damage on her to make runs faster and more efficient.  

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 catalysts for Sucrose. A general rule for DPS units are CR is roughly 50% of your CD.

STRENGTHS / WEAKNESSES

STRENGTHS:

  • Sucrose is an amazing Swirl support in Genshin Impact!
  • Her weapon of choice is easy to get even at super low AR level.
  • She is very useful even under low investment. 
  • She can be placed into nearly any team comp. 

WEAKNESSES

  • In terms of damage output she get’s outclassed by other Anemo characters.
  • If you’re using Thrilling Tales, you need to be very conscientious in your character rotations. 
  • Her constellations are underwhelming. 

RANKING

Combat Rating (3/10): She’s meant more as a support character and not really for combat. However, under high investment she can be as long as you can constantly apply other elemental reactions on your target.

Exploration (2/10): She is not necessary in your travel team except to collect dandelion seeds every once in while.

Spiral Abyss (8/10): She is a great character here due to her burst and ability to swirl all the elemental reactions together for bigger damage. Also her weapon of choice boosts the next characters ATK. 

Artifact Farming (8/10): She serves the same role here as she does in the Abyss.

Normal/Weekly Bosses (7/10): She’s definitely useful as a damage booster here.
