BUDGET CLORINDE GUIDE

SUMMARY
Clorinde is a 5-Star Sword DPS character whose kit revolves around the Bond of Life mechanic. She can infuse her NAs with Electro and may deal increased DMG depending on her BoL

TALENT & ASCENSION MATERIALS
Clorinde leveled to 90/90 for her Ascension Stat (CRIT Rate %) and maximum Reaction DMG.
While her Skill can infuse NAs with Electro, the damage of these attacks scales based off her Skill Talent multipliers, not her NA Talent multipliers


TALENT EXPLANATIONS


CONSTELLATIONS


ARTIFACTS

Artifact Sets
- 4pc Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy is Clorinde's BIS Set since she can manipulate BoL
- Other viable 4pc sets include 4pc Thundering Fury and 4pc Gladiator's Finale.
- If you don't have a full set yet, you can use a 2pc set mix between: ATK / Electro DMG / EM / NA DMG Sets
Main Stat & Substats
- ATK % Sands is the general stat to look for, but an EM Sands can work in Dendro team comps

WEAPON OPTIONS
- Finale of the Deep - Craftable Weapon and Clorinde's best F2P option since its passive can increase her ATK based on how much BoL has been cleared
- Black Sword - Battle Pass weapon that increases CRIT Rate and NA DMG
- Lion's Roar - Solid 4-Star option that increases DMG against enemies affected by Electro
- Calamity of Eshu - Can work if there's a Shielder on the team as its Passive will increase her NA DMG and CRIT Rate!
- Harbinger of Dawn - Great 3-Star weapon that increases CRIT Rate and DMG
- Toukabou Shigure/Iron Sting/Dark Iron Sword - Event/Craftable/Free options that provide EM substats. While this is generally not as ideal as some of the above options, these weapons can fare well in Dendro teams

TEAM COMPS

- Fischl is a great teammate as she can easily apply off-field Electro and deal respectable DMG
- Aggravate - Electro / Dendro / Flex
- Electro: Fischl, Yae Miko, Beidou, Lisa, Kujou Sara
- Dendro Options: Nahida, Kirara, Dendro Traveler, Baizhu, Yaoyao, Collei
- Flex: Anemo VV holder, Xilonen/Kachina, or a Shielder
- Quickbloom - Hydro / Electro / Dendro
- Hydro: Furina, Yelan, Xingqiu
- Electro: On top of the ones mentioned above, Ororon can also be an option here
- Overloaded - Chevreuse / Pyro / Electro
- Off-field Pyro: Thoma, Xiangling, Bennett, Dehya, Mavuika
- Electro-Charged - Hydro / Electro / Flex

Notes:
- Weapon options in my budget guides exclude weapons that are only obtainable from the limited (weapon) banner.
- With the addition of Chronicled Wish, this means some Weapon Banner exclusive weapons were added to Chronicle Wish as well, but these weapons are still considered "limited" for the purposes of these guides
- The rationale behind this is that the Chronicled Wish banner has the same duration as a normal banner and uses precious Intertwined Fates.
- This makes the Budget Guide friendlier to newer players, F2Ps, and low spenders.
- Materials for ascending the character to level 90/90 (for additional CRIT Rate and Reaction DMG) & talent levels 1 / 8 / 8
- Potentially frees up resin that may be spent on leylines to farm artifacts instead
These are the concepts behind the Budget Guides and I hope it can help some of you!
