Qiqi Best Weapon
Physical DMG Support/Healer Build
| Weapon | Details | |
|---|---|---|
| Best | Sacrificial Sword | Energy Recharge 61.3% (Lvl. 90) - Will allow Qiqi to have an almost 100% uptime for her skill - Energy Recharge will help keep Qiqi's Burst up |
| 2nd | Aquila Favonia | Physical DMG Bonus 41.3% (Lvl. 90) - High Base ATK - Provides additional ATK from weapon skill |
| 3rd | Summit Shaper | ATK 49.6% (Lvl. 90) - High Base ATK and additional ATK from sub-stat - Weapon skill provides additional ATK when you hit enemies |
| 4th | The Alley Flash | Elemental Mastery 55% (Lvl. 90) - Highest Base ATK for a 4-star weapon |
| 5th (F2P) | Amenoma Kageuchi | ATK 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - ATK sub-stat will increase Qiqi's healing - Weapon skill doesn't work on Qiqi however |
Sacrificial Sword Is The Best Weapon For This Build
Although the Sacrifical Sword is just a 4-star weapon, it's ability to reset the cooldwon for Qiqi's Elemental Skill makes it an essential part of this build. Since Qiqi gets most of her healing from her skill, having a good uptime for it is better than having more healing through ATK weapons.

The Best Artifact For This Build Is The Ocean-Hued Clams
Since you're aiming for a Superconduct build anyways, having Ocean-Hued Clams will allow Qiqi to deal additional DMG for the team. Without it, she'll be relegated to just a Cryo applicator and healer.
Aim For Triple ATK%
Qiqi's healing scales off her ATK so when it comes to build her in order to use the Ocean-Hued Clams, it's better to have triple attack across her Artifact Stats. Although Healing Bonus can be used, ATK% should yield a higher healing for Qiqi.

Notes About Team Comps For Qiqi
Qiqi loses out against other healers because she doesn't offer other utilities. This makes it hard to add her to team comps that require damage from all members. It's really with Superconduct that she shines best in the current meta.

Qiqi Skill Guide & How To Use Qiqi
Recommended Rotation For Qiqi
| Recommended Rotation | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Use Qiqi's Elemental Skill to heal active character and apply Cryo in the process |
| 2 | When in need of great healing, use Qiqi's Elemental Burst. Switch to your low health character and attack the marked enemies with Elemental attacks to heal |
| 3 | Repeat Step 1 |
Uses Of Qiqi's Elemental Skill
Periodically Heals Active Character
Qiqi's Elemental Skill can continuously heal the active character. Healing is done in time with the rotation of the Spirit Ball wherein it heals after every 2 rotation. The amount of healing you get depends on Qiqi's ATK. In addition, Qiqi can heal the whole team when doing Normal Attack while the Skill is active.
Inflicts Cryo To Nearby Enemies
Besides healing, Qiqi's Elemental Skill can deal Cryo DMG to enemies that are hit by the Spirit Ball. Cryo is only applied whenever the Spirit Ball circles around the active character and hits any enemy.
Uses Of Qiqi's Elemental Burst
Marks & Damages All Enemies Within Its Range
Qiqi's Burst deals Cryo DMG and marks all enemies within the range. Those marked will have her Talisman symbol on them until it expires!
Heal By Attacking Marked Enemies
The talisman is a unique status and attacking marked enemies can heal a portion of the damage dealt. Besides using her Burst, Qiqi also has a chance to mark an enemy when doing Normal & Charged Attack.

Should You Get Or Wish For Qiqi?
No Need To Target Qiqi When Pulling
Since Qiqi can be pulled from both the Standard Banner and the Limited-Time Banner, it's not recommended to aim for her when pulling. It's better to leave it up to chance that you get her from losing 50-50 in the Limited-Time Banner.
