BUDGET KUJOU SARA GUIDE
SUMMARY
Kujou Sara is a 4-Star Bow Support character who can grant a short ATK Bonus to an active character. She is most often used in combination with another Electro DPS (Raiden Shogun in particular) thanks to her C6!
TALENT & ASCENSION MATERIALS
Kujou Sara leveled to 90/90 to maximize her Base ATK and thereby the ATK Bonus she grants via Skill.
If you are low on resources, prioritize leveling up her Burst last!
TALENT EXPLANATIONS
CONSTELLATIONS
ARTIFACTS
Artifact Sets
- 4pc Noblesse Oblige is a great Support set to buff the team's ATK %. Sara can hold this if no one on the team is holding it
- Otherwise, 4pc Emblem of Severed Fate is a good option that can also increase her personal DMG
- 2pc Sets listed are decent temporary sets while you farm a full set
Main Stat & Substats
- ER Sands is recommended due to Kujou Sara's high Energy requirements, even in teams with Double Electro.
- ATK Sands are viable in Triple Electro teams or if she is using an ER Weapon in a Double Electro team
- Build some ER substats as well. Otherwise, Sara can be built for her personal DMG (most of which comes from her Burst)
WEAPON OPTIONS
This weapon list will be sorted in order of Base ATK at Lv 90:
- Skyward Harp has the highest Base ATK, followed by Amos' Bow - Both Standard Banner weapon options with over 600 Base ATK
- At 565 Base ATK:
- Fading Twilight - Limited-time Event weapon that provides a valuable ER substat
- Sacrificial Bow - Another weapon with ER substat (provides the same amount of ER as Fading Twilight)
- Other: Scion of the Blazing Sun (Battle Pass), Blackcliff Warbow (Shop), and Ibis Piercer (Limited-time Event Weapon) are other weapons with 565 Base ATK and may help with Kujou Sara's personal DMG
- At 510 Base ATK, the weapons are less preferred:
- End of the Line: Fishable weapon with ER substat
- Other: Prototype Crescent, Royal Bow, Rust, Song of Stillness, The Stringless, Viridescent Hunt, Windblume Ode
- At 454 Base ATK: Favonius Warbow - Listed as it has a higher ER substat and can assist the team with any ER needs
- Messenger and Raven Bow are 3-Star weapons that offer the most Base ATK of the 3-Star weapons, so they can be beginner-friendly options
TEAM COMPS
Highly recommended to pair Kujou Sara with an Electro DPS character. She doesn't mind having a third Electro character on the team either!
- Hypercarry Raiden (Raiden, Kazuha, Bennett, Sara) and Mono Electro teams are popular comps that use her!
- Electro-Charged or Aggravate teams with a DPS that can deal relatively fast and front-loaded DMG is preferred since her Skill's ATK Bonus has a 6 second duration
- With the release of Chevreuse this patch, these two may find themselves working together in an Overloaded team!
- Kujou Sara's ATK Bonuses are not limited to Electro characters, only the CRIT DMG increase from her C6 is limited. Some DPS characters who can take advantage of her short ATK Bonuses are: Kamisato Ayato, Navia, Ningguang, and Xiangling
Notes:
- Weapon options in my budget guides exclude weapons that are only obtainable from the weapon banner.
- This makes the Budget Guide friendlier to newer players, F2Ps, and low spenders.
- Materials for ascending the character to level 90/90 (for maximum Base ATK) & talent levels 1 / 8 / 8
- Potentially frees up resin that may be spent on talent domains to farm artifacts instead
These are the concepts behind the Budget Guides and I hope it can help some of you!
