With Childe returning on the event banner, Genshin Impact players are ready to use this Hydro Bow user. If you need the Best Build for Childe/ Tartaglia we have got you covered.
Tartaglia, also known as “Childe” in Genshin Impact, is a playable Hydro character. He is the eleventh and most current of the Fatui’s Harbingers. Childe, despite being the youngest member, is constantly eager for a challenge and follows danger wherever he goes. As a result, despite being the youngest member, he is incredibly dangerous.
With the appropriate build, Childe’s Hydro powers can completely destroy opponents. Tartaglia’s massive Hydro DMG output makes him an ideal Main DPS or on-field Support for your team, especially if you plan to pair him with a Pyro partner for Vaporize or Cryo for Freeze reactions.
Tartaglia’s build will mostly rely on him and him alone, requiring friends to be constructed around sustaining his damage output. Tartaglia can be built as a Sub-DPS, but for the greatest DMG, it’s recommended to fit him in as a Main DPS.
