Albedo Best Build

Albedo Geo Sub-DPS Build

Weapon	Cinnabar Spindle
Substitute	1. Harbinger of Dawn 2. Festering Desire
Best Artifact	Golden Troupe x4
Artifact Stats	Sands: DEF% Goblet: Geo DMG Bonus Circlet: Crit Rate/DMG
Priority Sub-Stats	1. Crit Rate/DMG 2. DEF%

This build is centered around increasing Albedo's Elemental Skill. Since the Elemental Skill scales off DEF, using a weapon that scales off DEF and an Artifact set increases her DEF & damage.

Albedo Best Weapon

Albedo Geo Sub-DPS Build

	Weapon	Details
Best	Cinnabar Spindle	DEF 69% (Lvl. 90) - Albedo's signature weapon - Further increases Elemental Skill DMG depending on your DEF
2nd	Harbinger Of Dawn	CRIT DMG 46.9% (Lvl. 90) - Increases both Crit DMG & Crit Rate
3rd	Festering Desire	Energy Recharge 45.9% (Lvl. 90) - Increases Skill Crit DMG and Skill Crit Rate

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.

Best Artifacts For Geo Sub-DPS DPS Build

	Artifacts
Best	Golden Troupe 4-Piece
Substitute 1 (Preferred If C2)	Husk Of Opulent Dreams 4-Piece
Substitute 1	Archaic Petra 2-Piece Husk Of Opulent Dreams 2-Piece

Artifact Stat Priority

	Main: Flat HP Sub: Crit Rate/DMG / DEF%
	Main: Flat ATK Sub: Crit Rate/DMG / DEF%
	Main: DEF% Sub: Crit Rate/DMG / DEF%
	Main: Geo DMG Bonus Sub: Crit Rate/DMG / DEF%
	Main: Crit Rate/DMG Sub: Crit Rate/DMG / DEF%

Husk Of Opulent Dreams Can Be Better At C2

Constellation 2 gives significant DMG buff to the Elemental Burst of Albedo allowing him to produce additional damage that scales on DEF. This cannot be boosted by Golden Troupe so it is better to choose Husk Set for more damage on Elemental Burst.
