Slingshot Gameplay & Tips
Good Weapon For Characters That Do Not Rely Heavily On ATK
Slingshot is an amazing weapon due to CRIT Rate sub-stat. However, its passive effect is situational since the user must be near the opponent when hitting with Normal & Charged ATK which is very tricky, especially for bow users.
Inactive Passive On Childe's Elemental Skill
Upon testing, it has been proven that the effect of the weapon does not increase the damage of attacks done by Childe while Skill is active.
Best 3 Star Weapons To Keep & To LevelSlingshot Is Good For Whom?
2nd BiS Weapon Of Sethos
Slingshot is the 2nd BiS for Sethos. Hunter's Path, Tighnari's BiS, is also Sethos' BiS but it's barely better than Slingshot. You only have to be close range to activate the weapon effect.
Characters That Can Use Slingshot
| Character | Details |
|---|---|
| Yelan | - Decent weapon for Yelan ↳ Yelan's kit focuses more on HP than ATK ↳ Can utilize passive since Yelan's Skill requires her to approach enemies ↳ Breakthrough Barb from Charged ATK works well with Slingshot ↳ CRIT Rate is good for achieving decent CRIT stat ratio |
| Tighnari | - Decent weapon for Tignhnari ↳ Tighnari's kit focuses more on EM than ATK ↳ Can utilize passive since Tighnari can also fight in close range with the aid of taunt from his Skill ↳ CRIT Rate is good for achieving decent CRIT stat ratio |
| Sethos | - Since Sethos scales from Elemental Mastery, the low base ATK of Slingshot does not have impact. - At R5, it becomes one of the best weapon of Sethos because of CRIT Rate and DMG increase. - Requires you to use Shields since you need to be close to enemies during battles. |
| Amber | - Useful weapon for Amber ↳ Optimized with her C1 which enables her to shoot a second arrow ↳ Can utilize passive since Amber can also fight in close range with the aid of taunt from her Skill ↳ CRIT Rate is good for achieving decent CRIT stat ratio |
