Dori in Genshin Impact: Best Weapon and Artifact Builds, Skills, Talents and Leveling

Dori — a four-star swordswoman in Genshin Impact, who serves as a healer and electro-support character. In this guide, we will talk about the heroine's abilities, the resources needed for her leveling, as well as combat tactics involving this beauty.

The first banner with Dori was available on September 9, 2022, in the 3.0 update. It's possible that the developers will add it again later with other major updates. Stay tuned to our website for news!

Dori is a female merchant who specializes in rare and sometimes strange goods. Among them are unique herbs, precious stones, and other exotic items that cannot be bought from other merchants. It remains a mystery where she gets them from. Some believe that the girl takes advantage of the situation and jacks up the price, while others are grateful to her for truly useful items for them.

Dori is a four-star swordswoman who deals Electro damage to enemies. However, her key ability is summoning a genie. This creature restores health and energy to the active character.

Weapon

Ceremonial Greatsword. This weapon has an attack of 44-565 units and an energy recharge bonus of 6.7-30.6%. When the character's elemental skill hits an enemy, there is a 40-80% chance its cooldown will reset, allowing you to use the skill again. The effect can occur no more than once every 30-16 seconds. The sword can be obtained through prayers to the Mountain and Market, Forest Patrol, and Incarnation of the deity.

Katsuragikiri Nagamasa. This sword has a base attack power of 42-510 units with an additional increase in energy regeneration of 10-45.9%. Thanks to this weapon, damage from the elemental skill is increased by 6-18%. If it hits an enemy, Dori will lose 3 energy units but will regenerate 3-5 units every 2 seconds for 6 seconds. The effect can occur once every 10 seconds and will activate even if Dori is not on the field.

Artifacts

Ocean-Hued Clam. Perfect for those who use Dori strictly as a healer. Equipping two pieces from this set increases healing effectiveness by 15%. If you equip 4 artifacts, a Sea-Dyed Foam Bubble appears during healing on the battlefield. It counts healing points, including the excess. The maximum value is 30,000 units. After 3 seconds, the Bubble explodes and deals damage to enemies equal to 90% of the counted points. The effect can occur once every 3.5 seconds. These set items can be obtained in the Slumbering Court dungeon.

Thundering Fury. An optimal choice for players who use Dori as a character for dealing additional attacks and elemental reactions. Two artifacts from this set increase Electro damage by 15%. Four pieces increase the damage of Overloaded, Superconduct, and Electro-Charged statuses by 40%. Their application also reduces the cooldown of the elemental skill by 1 second. The effect occurs no more than once every 0.8 seconds. Find artifacts from this set in the Midsummer Courtyard dungeon. Its location is marked on the map.

Pros:

Cons:

If Dori is primarily a healer for you, she will feel great in any squad. Switch to her, summon the djinn, and bring in the main attacking character. Their health and energy will automatically be restored.

If Dori is needed as a character for dealing additional damage, then it's best to rely primarily on her elemental skill. It's advisable to combine it with attacks from other characters to trigger elemental reactions. Even with such an approach, it's sometimes worth summoning the djinn for healing. In this case, another healer in the team won't be necessary.

Below we've described examples of teams with Dori as an Electro character for dealing additional damage.
