- The lifting platform could disrupt the team combo & rotation, especially melee characters.

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.

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.

For those without the event swords, HoD is a good choice for him but you can also use weapons like Wolf Fang from the battle pass and even the Fontaine Fleuve Cendre if you use his burst.

barathrum 7

I started to doubt the tier list from this website.

Hey the owner of this site, Have you tried Albedo + Wolf fang sword + Golden Troupe 4set/Husk 4 set ??

Are you sure the best sword for Albedo just Cinnabar?

Anonymous 6

what about travelers handy sword?

Anonymous 5

With or without CS? Since his BiS weapon, probably responsible for the dmg, is no longer available, such statements are meaningless for new players. I only read praising words from players who own this weapon. But hey i can use HoD, it's not quite as great as CS, but who needs meta without endgame

Anonymous 4

Strongest character in the game tbh
Drop a flower that adds 25k dmg to your attacks every 2 seconds or so, skill has basically no cd and lasts for ever
