Overview

  • Off-field Geo damage
  • Sub-DPS

Chiori is a Geo sword user who works best as an off-field damage dealer. Her Elemental Skill dashes forward and summons the doll Tamoto, which keeps slashing nearby enemies. If a Geo Construct is nearby, a second Tamoto appears. Right after the skill, pressing it again swaps to the next character and lets their Normal, Charged and Plunging Attacks call in extra Tamoto strikes.

Her damage scales with both ATK and DEF, so she is easy to build: DEF and ATK both help, and crits matter most. She is at her best in Geo-heavy teams with a construct maker, where she gets both the extra doll and a Geo DMG Bonus from her passive.

Weapons

Best first. Every sword on this list links to its page.

  1. Uraku Misugiri ★★★★★

    Her signature sword. Large CRIT DMG, more DEF, and bonuses to both Normal Attack and Elemental Skill damage that double after Geo damage.

  2. Primordial Jade Cutter ★★★★★

    High CRIT Rate makes her stats much easier to balance.

  3. Cinnabar Spindle ★★★★

    An event sword that adds Elemental Skill damage based on DEF, which fits her well.

  4. Harbinger of Dawn ★★★

    A 3-star with CRIT DMG and conditional CRIT Rate while HP stays high. A shield keeps the condition up.

  5. Flute of Ezpitzal ★★★★

    Gives DEF on the main stat and more DEF after using her skill. A solid 4-star if you have it.

Artifact sets

  1. Golden Troupe 4-piece

    Her best set. Tamoto keeps fighting while she is off the field, which is where this set's bonus is strongest.

  2. Husk of Opulent Dreams 4-piece

    A strong option that adds DEF and Geo damage, and it stacks even while she is off the field.

Teams

  • Navia Geo

    Navia deals the main damage, and her attacks call in extra Tamoto strikes. Furina adds Hydro for Crystallize shards and buffs the team, and Xilonen heals and lowers enemy Geo resistance.

  • Mono Geo

    Zhongli's pillar and Itto's skill are Geo Constructs, so Chiori gets her second doll and her Geo bonus easily.

  • Budget Geo

    All three teammates are 4-stars. Ningguang's Jade Screen counts as a Geo Construct, and Noelle's many Normal Attacks trigger the extra Tamoto strikes.

Tips

  • After her skill, press the skill button again to swap out and give the party the follow-up Tamoto strikes. Press Normal Attack instead only if you want her to keep fighting with a Geo infusion.
  • Place a Geo Construct near her before or during Tamoto's time on the field to summon the extra doll.
  • Pick DEF% or ATK% on the sands based on what your weapon gives. Both are fine, and crit substats matter more than the choice between them.

Other character guides recommend Chiori as a teammate in these teams.
