Weakness
- His Geo Structure can be easily destroyed at boss fields making it situational. ↳ Cinnabar Spindle is currently the best weapon for him but if you were not able to get it, there's unfortunately no other weapon with a DEF sub-stat. - The lifting platform could disrupt the team combo & rotation, especially melee characters.

Albedo Best Build

Albedo Is Best Built As A Geo Sub-DPS Build

Weapon	Uraku Misugiri
Substitute	1. Cinnabar Spindle 2. Harbinger of Dawn 3. Festering Desire
Best Artifact	Husk Of Opulent Dreams x4
Artifact Stats	Sands: DEF% Goblet: Geo DMG Bonus Circlet: CRIT Rate/ CRIT DMG
Priority Sub-Stats	1. CRIT Rate 2. CRIT DMG 2. DEF%
Recommended Team

Albedo has a 100% up-time of his Elemental Skill and it gives huge damage with proper builds. Because of this, it is best to build Albedo as a Sub-DPS that deals damage off-field. He can be used on Crystalized teams and Mono-Geo Teams.

Albedo Best Weapon

Weapons For Geo Sub-DPS Albedo

	Weapon	Details
Best	Uraku Misugiri	CRIT DMG 88.2% (Lvl. 90) - Greatly increases CRIT DMG of characters. - Boost the damage of Skill and DEF of Albedo. - Albedo can maximize its effects doubling the Skill Buff.
2nd	Cinnabar Spindle	DEF 69% (Lvl. 90) - Greatly increases DEF% of characters. - Further increases Elemental Skill DMG depending on your DEF. - You need to build CRIT Rate and DMG.
3rd	Harbinger Of Dawn	CRIT DMG 46.9% (Lvl. 90) - Increases both CRIT DMG & CRIT Rate greatly especially at R5. - Low ATK does not affect the damage of Albedo.
4th	Festering Desire	Energy Recharge 45.9% (Lvl. 90) - Increases Skill CRIT DMG and Skill CRIT Rate making it a decent option for Albedo.

Cinnabar Spindle Is The Best Weapon Choice

Because of the lack of a 5-star DEF-scaling sword or a weapon with sub-stats that benefit Albedo, the best weapon he can have right now is the Cinnabar Spindle. Unfortunately, it's an event-only weapon and if you didn't get it, there's no current way to get it right now.

Elemental Burst Boosts Team Elemental Mastery

One of Albedo's best Ascension Passive is "Homuncular Nature", which increases the Elemental Mastery of the team by 125 after his Elemental Burst. This will increase the effect of all Elemental Reactions.

Creates Additional Geo Explosions When Casted Inside The Skill Area

If you use Albedo's Elemental Burst inside the area of the skill, flower explosions will appear in the field, dealing additional damage.
