Introduction

Finina, the Hydro Archon from Fontaine, has quickly risen to the top of the Genshin Impact meta thanks to her versatile kit and powerful buffs. As one of the few characters that excels in both support and damage-dealing roles, building Finina correctly can significantly amplify your team’s performance.

Whether you’re playing her at C0 or fully maxed at C6, this guide will help you unlock Finina’s full potential.

Leveling and Talents: Prioritization and Tips

• Skill: Main source of personal damage, especially in Ousia alignment.
• Burst: Best for buffing the team; prioritize crowning this.
• Normal Attacks: Can remain at level 1 unless playing C6, where Triple Crowning becomes viable.

Recommended Weapons: Best Choices for Every Level

• Five-Star Options:
  • Splendor of Tranquil Waters: Her signature weapon with HP% main stat and perfect synergy.
  • Jade Cutter: High Crit Rate and HP% boost make it a strong alternative.

• Four-Star Options:
  • Favonius Sword: Best for energy recharge and burst uptime.
  • Flandre F: A free-to-play option with high energy recharge and crit bonuses.

Team Compositions: Maximizing Finina’s Synergy

Finina’s flexibility allows her to fit into almost any Hydro-centric team, including:

• Vaporize and Freeze Teams: Leverage her burst for massive buffs.
• Bloom and Hyperbloom Teams: Exploit HP scaling for both healing and damage.
• Mono-Hydro: Pure Hydro teams benefit immensely from her energy generation and buffs.

Constellation Analysis and Priorities
