Player Mistakes
Back to All Characters
Matching Diluc with the rightGenshin Impactteam and giving him the best weapon can lead him to continuously deal a steady flow of DMG. It’s a rare ability not many characters have inGenshin Impact. His low cooldown on his Elemental Skill and Burst help make it easier for him to keep dashing some decent DMG.

For this to effectively happen, players have to build Diluc with the right weapon and artifacts. Luckily, there are many Claymore options with great stats and passive effects to choose from.
7Luxurious Sea-Lord
Despite its fishy aesthetic, Luxurious Sea-Lord remains a great F2P option forDiluc inGenshin Impact. At R5, The 4-star fishy Claymore grants Diluc 24% more Elemental Burst DMG and a decent ATK% boost on the weapon’s secondary stats. The only downside is Luxurious Sea-Lord’s low Base ATK, which will hurt Diluc’s total ATK in general.
6Blackcliff Slasher

Blackcliff Slasher is a greatF2P weapon for any DPS inGenshin Impact. With Blackcliff Slasher, Diluc can accomplish his role, especially if he’s up against a horde of enemies. Blackcliff will keep stacking more ATK% alongside its decent Base ATK and 55% CRIT DMG.
5Rainslasher
Rainslasher is the only special choice between the rest of the other Claymores. The 4-star weapon increases Diluc’s Elemental Mastery, which forces players to play Diluc in a Vaporize team composition. Rainslasher’s effect only procs when Diluc lands a hit on an enemy affected by Hydro or Electro and that furtherrestricts the Claymore’s full potential. Nevertheless, it’s easy for Diluc to meet all these requirements and shine in any Vape team comp with Rainslasher.
4Wolf’s Gravestone

Wolf’s Gravestone was originally Diluc’sbest Claymore inGenshin Impact. However, after the expansion of the game and the introduction of many new artifacts and weapons, other Claymores climbed to the top. Wolf’s Gravestone is still a solid pick for Diluc since it buffs his favorite stats over and over again.
3The Unforged
The Unforged’s passive is bound by one limitation: the wielder should be shielded at all times to receive The Unforged’s 40% ATK increase. In addition to that, Diluc also gets almost 50% ATK from The Unforged’s secondary stats alongside a solid Base ATK. All that rank The Unforged at thehighest Claymore tiers inGenshin Impact.
2Serpent Spine
Although it’s a4-star weapon inGenshin Impact, players should not underestimate Serpent Spine. This Claymore got some decent stats giving Diluc a high Base ATK for a 4-star weapon with a good 27% CRIT Rate. But what makes Serpent Spine one of the best weapons for Diluc is the fact that even its effect enhances Diluc’s DMG by up to 50% on R5.
1Redhorn Stonethresher
Redhorn Stonethresher is a great Claymore stats-wise because of its secondary stats that grants its user a whopping 88% CRIT DMG. It also matches Diluc’s style of gameplay to some degree since he operates with all his talents, even his Normal and Charged attacks. The only downside is that Diluc doesn’t scale with his DEF, so unlikeGenshin ImpactArataki Itto, players can’t take full advantage of Redhorn Stonethresher’s effect.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
