Video Summary

Chongyun Build Guide

This guide focuses on optimizing your Chongyun build for low-resource and free-to-play team compositions. By leveraging his unique Cryo infusion and burst potential, you can effectively slot him into powerful elemental reaction teams like Reverse Melt and National variants.

Best Weapons

  • Katsuragikiri Nagamasa: This Inazuma forge claymore is an excellent choice for managing energy needs. It provides a consistent way to regenerate energy for his burst while offering a respectable base attack for a free-to-play sub-DPS role.
  • Luxurious Sea-Lord: This event weapon is one of the best weapons for increasing burst damage. It significantly boosts the power of his Elemental Burst, making it a top-tier option for players who participated in the Moonlight Merriment event.

Best Artifacts

  • Blizzard Strayer: Using a 2-piece set of this artifact provides a valuable Cryo damage bonus. It is a staple for any Chongyun build looking to maximize the damage of his skill and burst when paired with other offensive sets.
  • Noblesse Oblige: A 2-piece set of this artifact is ideal for increasing burst damage. When combined with other sets, it helps him function as a powerful burst support who can deal significant damage in a short window.
  • Gladiator's Finale: This artifact set provides a reliable 18 percent attack bonus with its 2-piece effect. It is a flexible option that helps scale his overall damage output across his entire kit when better specific sets are unavailable.

Teams and Stat Priorities

  • For stat priorities, focus on high Elemental Mastery to maximize reaction damage and high Attack to scale his raw output. Balancing these stats ensures his burst hits hard during elemental rotations.
  • The Reverse Melt team featuring Bennett, Xiangling, and Kaeya allows him to trigger powerful reactions. This composition excels at consistent Cryo and Pyro application, making it a highly effective low-resource option for clearing difficult content.
  • The National Team variant with Bennett, Xiangling, and Xingqiu utilizes him as a flexible fourth member. In this niche, he provides Cryo infusion and burst support to help the team maintain constant elemental pressure and high damage.
