Razor

Wolf Boy

A boy who lives among the wolves in Wolvendom of Mondstadt, away from human civilization. As agile as lightning.

Overview

  • On-field Physical damage
  • Electro applier

Razor fights up close with fast claymore swings. Most of his damage is Physical, from Normal Attacks, while his Elemental Skill and Burst add Electro on top. His Burst summons the Wolf Within, which strikes alongside each Normal Attack and speeds up his swings, so the burst window is when he does his real work.

Build him like a classic Physical carry: ATK, a Physical DMG goblet and crits. His own Electro pairs well with a Cryo teammate, because Superconduct lowers the enemy's Physical resistance and makes every swing after it hit harder.

Weapons

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

  1. Wolf's Gravestone ★★★★★

    A large ATK bonus that works with everything in his kit. The best all-round 5-star for him.

  2. Song of Broken Pines ★★★★★

    Physical DMG as a main stat and extra ATK and attack speed from its passive. Excellent if you have it.

  3. Serpent Spine ★★★★

    The strongest 4-star for him. CRIT Rate helps balance his crits and he stays on the field long enough to keep its stacks up.

  4. Prototype Archaic ★★★★

    Craftable at the Blacksmith. Simple ATK and a bonus hit from his attacks. A dependable free choice.

  5. Snow-Tombed Starsilver ★★★★

    A free 4-star you can forge after the Dragonspine quests. Physical DMG as a main stat suits him, and it hits harder against Cryo-affected enemies.

Artifact sets

  1. Pale Flame 4-piece

    The best set for him. He uses his Elemental Skill often enough to keep both stacks, which doubles the Physical DMG bonus.

  2. Pale Flame + Bloodstained Chivalry 2-piece each

    Two Physical DMG bonuses at once. A good mix while your full Pale Flame set is incomplete.

  3. Gladiator's Finale 4-piece

    An easy alternative from the overworld bosses. ATK plus a Normal Attack bonus that fits his claymore playstyle.

Teams

  • Mika Physical

    Mika raises his attack speed and heals, Rosaria adds Cryo for Superconduct and shares CRIT Rate, and Bennett adds ATK. A strong use of Razor's fast swings.

  • Budget Superconduct

    Built from common 4-stars. Kaeya keeps Cryo on enemies for Superconduct, Fischl adds off-field Electro damage and Bennett heals and buffs ATK.

Tips

  • Use his Elemental Skill before his Elemental Burst. The burst turns his Electro Sigils into Energy and resets the skill's cooldown, so you can use the skill again right away.
  • Holding the Elemental Skill with three Electro Sigils turns them into Energy, which helps the burst come back faster.
  • His Charged Attack is disabled during the burst, so stick to Normal Attack strings while the Wolf Within is out.
  • Leaving the field ends the burst early. Stay on him for its whole duration and swap only after it ends.
