Chiori is a Geo character who wields a sword and holds a 5-star rarity. She is the sole new character introduced in Genshin Impact version 4.5. Positioned as a sub DPS, her kit scales with both Attack and Defense, with a higher emphasis on Defense scaling. The stylish seamstress of Fontaine can deliver significant damage when built correctly. Here’s how you can build Chiori in Genshin Impact to maximize her potential.
Genshin Impact Chiori Kit and Best Rotation
Chiori is a Geo character who fights with a sword. Her kit is ideal for serving as an off-field DPS, with her elemental burst being her primary source of damage. Here’s a quick overview of Chiori’s abilities in Genshin Impact and how you should approach playing her:
- Chiori’s kit scales with both her Attack and Defense, with a slightly higher emphasis on Defense.
- Chiori’s Skill summons an Automaton Doll Sode, which performs an AoE Geo Damage attack, while she executes a sweeping attack dealing AoE Geo Damage.
- Her Elemental Burst is a powerful attack that inflicts AoE Geo Damage.
- The optimal way to play Chiori is to start with her Elemental Burst, then use her Skill to trigger her Talent effect Tapestry. This allows her to switch out with the next character in the roster while enabling Sode to perform the sweeping attack, dealing AoE Geo damage.
Best Chiori Builds in Genshin Impact
The optimal build for Chiori includes the “Husk of Opulent Dreams” artifact set paired with her signature weapon, Yukaru Odenkiri. Chiori excels as an off-field Sub DPS, and her damage output is enhanced by other Geo constructs present on the field.
Since Chiori is a Geo character, she cannot trigger offensive elemental reactions and is most effective when paired with other Geo characters. With the right Artifacts, she can deal significant off-field damage.
Chiori’s abilities scale with both Attack and Defense, with Defense scaling slightly higher than Attack. Therefore, it’s advisable to prioritize Defense over Attack in the Artifact stats for optimal results. Regarding Energy Recharge (ER), aim for 120-130% through sub-stats on mono Geo teams to ensure her Elemental Burst is readily available. However, if you are running Chiori on a double Geo team, she will have higher ER requirements. In this case, prioritize her Defense and Critical stats over ER.
Here are the recommended artifacts for Chiori, including the best option and alternatives:
- Husk of Opulent Dreams (Best artifact)
- Golden Troupe (Best alternative)
- Archaic Petra
- Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods
The Husk of Opulent Dreams is the optimal Artifact set for Chiori, providing a significant boost to her Defense and maximizing her Elemental Burst damage potential. The Golden Troupe set is also a viable alternative, offering increased Skill damage compared to the Husk of Opulent Dreams. However, it falls short in enhancing her Burst damage output.
Chiori Main and Sub-Stats Priority
Most players use Chiori as an off-field Sub-DPS. For Chiori’s kit, Defense, Attack, Crit Rate, and Crit Damage are the most important stats, followed by Energy. Therefore, prioritize her stats in this order: Defense% -> Crit Rate ≡ Crit Damage -> Attack -> Energy.
Chiori Talents
Chiori’s Elemental Skill enables her to summon Automaton dolls that deal AoE Geo damage, scaling with her Defense and Attack stats. Her Elemental Burst unleashes high AoE Geo damage. Here are the details of her talents.
- Weaving Blade (Normal Attack): Chiori performs up to 4 rapid strikes, a charged attack that unleashes 2 rapid sword strikes consuming Stamina, and a plunge attack that deals AoE damage upon impact, damaging opponents along the way.
- Fluttering Hasode (Skill): Chiori dashes forward and summons the automaton doll Sode beside her. Sode sweeps her blade upward, dealing AoE Geo Damage based on Chiori’s Attack and Defense. Holding the Skill triggers a different behavior, entering Aiming mode to adjust the dash direction.
The Sode Automaton doll slashes at nearby opponents at intervals, dealing AoE Geo Damage based on Chiori’s Attack and Defense stats. While active, if more Geo Constructions are present, additional Geo Constructs are created nearby, summoning an additional Sode next to the active character. Only one additional Sode can be summoned in this way, and its duration is counted independently.
- Hiyoku: Twin Blades (Elemental Burst): Chiori slices with her Twin Blades like a master tailor, dealing high AoE Geo Damage based on her Attack and Defense.
Chiori Passives
- Brocaded Collar’s Beauteous Silhouette: When any party member wears an outfit (other than the default) or equips a glider (other than Wings of First Flight), they gain the Swift Stride effect, increasing movement speed by 10%. This effect does not stack and does not apply in Domains, Trounce Domains, and the Spiral Abyss.
- Tailor-Made: Chiori gains two effects depending on her actions after using her Elemental Burst. Using Normal Attacks triggers the Tailoring effect, while using her Skill triggers the Tapestry effect. If neither action is taken within a short time, the Tailoring effect triggers by default.
1. Tapestry Effect: Switches to the next character in the roster and grants all allies the Seize the Moment effect. This effect causes Sode to execute a coordinated attack, dealing 100% of Fluttering Hasode’s upward sweep damage as AoE Geo Damage at the opponent’s location when the active party character hits an opponent with their Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks.
2. Tailoring Effect: Chiori gains Geo Infusion for 5 seconds.
- The Finishing Touch: When a nearby party member creates a Geo Construct, Chiori gains a 20% Geo Damage bonus for 20 seconds.
Best Weapons for Chiori
Chiori’s signature weapon, Yukaru Odenkiri, is her best weapon. It significantly boosts her Normal Attacks and Elemental Skill damage and further enhances her damage based on other Geo characters dealing damage. Additionally, this weapon increases her Defense by 20%.
Here are the recommended weapons to maximize Chiori’s kit:
- Yukaru Odenkiri (Signature Weapon)
- Primordial Jade Cutter (Best Alternative)
- Harbinger of Dawn (Best F2P Option)
- Cinnabar Spindle
Chiori Build: Constellations
- Six Paths of Sage Silkcraft (C1): Increases the AoE of the Sode summoned by Fluttering Hasode by 50%. Additionally, after using her Elemental Burst, if another Geo character is on the team, the following effects will trigger:
1) Summons an additional Sode. Only one additional Sode can be summoned this way.
2) Triggers the Passive Talent “The Finishing Touch.”
- In Five Colors Dyed (C2): Summons a simplified automaton doll named Kinu next to the character every 3 seconds for 10 seconds after using her Skill. Kinu attacks nearby opponents and deals AoE Geo Damage equal to 170% of Sode’s Damage. Kinu leaves the field after one attack or after lasting for 3 seconds.
- Four Brocade Embellishments (C3): Skill level +3, up to level 15 max.
- A Tailor’s Three Courtesies (C4): During the 8 seconds of triggering the Tailoring effect of the Tailor Made talent, one Kinu can be summoned every 1 second, and up to 3 Kinu can be summoned during each instance of triggering the Tailor Made talent. This effect can be triggered once after every 15 seconds.
- Two Silken Plumules (C5): Elemental Burst level +3, up to level 15 max.
- Sole Principle Pursuit (C6): Reduces the cooldown of Fluttering Hasode by 12 seconds after triggering the follow-up effect of the Passive Talent Tailor Made. Additionally, Chiori’s Normal Attack damage increases by 235% of her DEF.
Chiori’s constellations play a crucial role in enhancing her damage output, particularly C2, which enables her to summon an additional doll, Kinu, alongside Sode. While aiming for C2 can be costly, it might be more beneficial to save Primogems for Arlecchino.
