How To Use Sayu ?

Recommended Rotation for Sayu

Uses Of Sayu's Elemental Skill

Elemental Skill Is Great At Offense & Defense

Elemental Skill is a rolling skill that last for a long time that makes Sayu semi-invisible because of its speed and mobility. This is great for breaking shield and debuffing enemies with Viridescent Venerer.

Uses Of Sayu's Elemental Burst

Burst Heals & Deals Damage

Click to Enlarge

Sayu's Elemental Burst is a great utility skill that heals the players and deals Anemo damage to enemies. However, the burst cost is at 80 making Energy Recharge weapon such as Favonius Greatsword useful for the skill's consistency.

Strengths Of Sayu

3rd Passive Greatly Helps With Material Farming

When you have Sayu in your team, insects and animals such as Crystalflies and Crabs will not be startled unless you interact with them making farming for Crystal Cores a breeze.

Great At Breaking Elemental Shields

Sayu's Elemental Skill absorbs an element and is able to trigger multiple reactions at once using it. If used properly, it can be easily used to break shields of Abyss Mages and other Elemental Shields.

Weaknesses Of Sayu

Split-Scales With ATK% And Elemental Mastery

The healing and damage of Sayu, unfortunately, scales on two stats forcing players to choose between healing and damage. This problem, however, can be solved by unlocking the final constellation of Sayu effectively making Sayu scale on Elemental Mastery only.

Needs Energy Recharge For Consistent Burst

Sayu's Elemental Burst requires 80 Energy to activate. While Sayu can produce plenty of energy through her skill, it is not enough to have consistent up-time for burst. To solve this, equipping an energy recharge weapon is recommended.
