Choose the best Weapons and Artifacts for Beidou in our Best Build Guide. One of the best Electro Support in Genshin Impact!

Beidou, from Genshin Impact, is the captain of The Crux, a heavily armed fleet of ships that travels the seas, never halting for long periods of time. She gets along well with her entire crew and enjoys spicy food and alcoholic beverages. Beidou frequently defies the laws when she arrives in Liyue, resulting in large fines from the Tianquan. But they have an interesting relationship according to some fans.

Genshin Impact Beidou can use her Elemental Burst to continuously induce Electro Reactions, causing massive damage depending on the number of attacks she receives while holding Elemental Skill. When she has enough constellations, Beidou’s damage increases and decreases the foe’s resistance from Electro harm. These skills are an excellent upgrade for players who want to form an Electro-type group in Genshin Impact.
