Finding the best weapons for characters inGenshin Impactis crucial to increasing their stats and finding passives that work with their kits. That’s the case with Ifa, who needs weapons thatmaximize his Elemental Mastery(EM) and make every Swirl reaction count.
Since that’s the only requirement to build a strong Ifa, players might find it easy to find thebest weapon for Ifa inGenshin Impact. In terms of his weapon of choice, Ifa uses a Catalyst as a weapon, similar to characters like Kazuha and Wanderer.
221 Elemental Mastery
R5 Effect
After dealing damage to an opponent with an Elemental Skill, the skill has a 80% chance to end its own CD. Can only occur once every 16s.
Sacrificial Fragments is one of the best4-star weapons for Ifa inGenshin Impact. The 4-star Catalyst increases Ifa’s Elemental Mastery by 221 from its Sub-stat. It’s always nice to have a 4-star weapon that grants this amount of stats for its wielding character.
On the other hand, Ifa doesn’t benefit from the weapon’s passive effect since it’s designed to allow him to cast his Elemental Skill again, and Ifa doesn’t need that. By the time Ifa is done with his Elemental Skill duration, it’s better to start the team’s rotation instead of going for another ride.
265 Elemental Mastery
Effect
Increases Elemental Mastery by 100. Gain the “Mirror of Night” effect within 15s after the equipping character creates a shield: The current active party member deals 28% increased DMG to nearby opponents. You can gain the “Mirror of Night” effect once every 14s.
Starcaller’s Watch is one of the best weaponsfor any character that needs Elemental Mastery. That’s certainly the case with Ifa, since he needs a lot of EM, and Starcaller’s Watch grants him that. Ifa gets 265 EM from the 5-star Catalyst’s Sub-stat on top of another 100 from its passive effect. Sadly, this is where Starcaller’s Watch’s help ends, since the rest of the passive effect requires Ifa to shield, and he doesn’t have that in his kit.
Party members other than the equipping character will provide the equipping character with buffs based on whether their Elemental Type is the same as the latter or not. If their Elemental Types are the same, increase Elemental Mastery by 32. If not, increase the equipping character’s DMG Bonus from their Elemental Type by 10%. Each of the aforementioned effects can have up to 3 stacks. Additionally, all nearby party members other than the equipping character will have their Elemental Mastery increased by 40. Multiple such effects from multiple such weapons can stack.
Similar to Starcaller’s Watch, A Thousand Floating Dreams gives Ifa a lot of Elemental Mastery, and it’s a very good choice for him. The only downside is that Ifa doesn’t get a lot from the weapon’s passive since the requirement is to have other Anemo characters in the team to further buff Ifa’s EM. However, A Thousand Floating Dreams can still buff the team’s Elemental Mastery, which should increase theirElemental reactions inGenshin Impact.
30.6% Energy Recharge
After the character equipped with this weapon triggers an Electro elemental reaction, nearby party members of an Elemental Type involved in the elemental reaction receive a 20% Elemental DMG Bonus for their element, lasting 6s. Elemental Bonuses gained in this way cannot be stacked.
Hakushin Ring is an amazing weapon for Ifa inGenshin Impact. Instead of buffing Ifa’s Elemental Mastery, players can build Ifa with aCatalyst that will increase the team’s DMGas Ifa is Swirling and shredding enemies’ resistance. It’s double the benefits for a small DMG trade-off.
Elemental Mastery increases by 120 for 6s after triggering Swirl. Elemental Mastery increases by 96 for 9s after the wielder’s Elemental Skill hits an opponent. Elemental Mastery increases by 32 for 30s after the wielder’s Elemental Burst hits an opponent.
Having a weapon like Sunny Morning Sleep-In for Ifa is amazing since the 5-star Catalyst grants him Elemental Mastery on top of Elemental Mastery passive with some Elemental Mastery on the side. The weapon is purely made to absolutely skyrocket a character’s EM, and it works with units like Ifa, who heavily depend on thestat inGenshin Impact.
