Diluc is the owner of the Dawn Winery and he’s also a nobleman of high esteem in Mondstadt and a former Knight of Favonius so yes, everyone knows him. He was born into the affluent Ragnvindr Clan and protects Mondstadt in his own way.

Diluc is a Pyro Claymore character and his main (and I would say only) role is as a DPS. Anyway, Genshin Impact is a really flexible game when we talk about builds. Even if Diluc has an optimum build, we’ll talk about another two viable builds! Let’s start!

3. Pale Flame

Pale Flame is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities which can be obtained from Ridge Watch. Its 2-Piece Bonus increased Physical DMG by 25% and its 4-Piece Bonus increased ATK and when it stacks, Physical DMG increased by 100%.

Reasons to use this set:

• Even if Diluc is a Pyro character, he can be built as a DPS because of his Physical DMG and you can always get that Pyro DMG in the Goblet’s set even if it’s not that much.
• If you want to use this set, keep in mind that you’ll need characters such as Xingqiu or Chongyun in your team. These characters will help Amber to deal more Pyro DMG through Elemental Reactions such as Vaporize or Melt.
• Anyways, he recharges his Elemental Burst and Skill really fast, so you can always spam them and deal small amounts of Pyro DMG. Also, we recommend using another Pyro character like Hu Tao for the Pyro DMG and not just Diluc.
• With this set, you have to focus on Diluc’s normal attacks, since it just increases his physical DMG and not his Pyro DMG.
• Blackliff Slasher is the perfect weapon for this build. It’s a 4-star weapon that can be obtained in Paimon’s Bargains and its 2nd stat is CRIT DMG. Also, after defeating an opponent, Diluc’s attack will increase by 12% for 30s.

Build details:

• Flower: HP
• Plume: Flat ATK
• Sand: ATK%
• Goblet: Physical DMG Bonus
• Circlet: ATK%/Crit DMG/ Crit Rate

Best Team For This Build:

• Diluc, Xinyan, Xianling, and Zhongli

Reasons why:

Diluc works as a Physical DMG here while Xinyan and Xiangling support him with Pyro DMG. Even if they’re their supports, they can deal a little bit of Pyro DMG. Zhongli supports Diluc by decreasing enemies’ DEF with his shield and protecting him!

2. Shimenawa’s Reminiscence and Crimson Witch of Flames

Shimenawa’s Reminiscence is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities which can be obtained from Momiji-Dyed Court in Inazuma.

The 2-Piece Bonus of Shimenawa’s Reminiscence and Gladiator’s Finale increase your attack by 18%, both of them. So, it means your attack will be increased by 36%.

Crimson Witch of Flames is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities which can be obtained from Hidden Palace of Zhou Formula.

The 2-Piece Bonus of Crimson Flames of Witch increases Pyro DMG Bonus by 15%. Now, let’s talk about the benefits of these two sets in Diluc.

Reasons to use this set:

• Diluc applies Pyro DMG whenever you activate his Elemental Skill or his Elemental Burst, so Crimson Witch of Flames will increase this Pyro DMG.
• Even if you think the most important part of Diluc is his Pyro DMG he’s still a DPS, so basic attacks are really important too. Shimenawa’s Reminiscence will increase this DMG.
• With these sets, his Skill and Burst’s Pyro DMG will be increased but his normal attacks too, since Shimenawa’s increases that DMG.
• Crimson Witch of Flames is the only set that increases Pyro DMG in Genshin Impact, so it’s almost every character’s best set if they’re a DPS. Also, Shimenawa is almost every DPS best set too so it’s very common to mix this set with another one.
• The perfect weapon for this build is Serpent Spine, a claymore that can be obtained with the Battle Pass (Gnostic Hymn). This weapon’s 2nd Stat is CRIT Rate and every 4s Diluc will deal 6% more DMG and take 3% more DMG.

Build details:

• Flower: HP
• Plume: Flat ATK
• Sand: ATK%
• Goblet: Physical DMG Bonus
• Circlet: ATK%/Crit DMG/ Crit Rate

Best team for this build:

• Diluc, Bennet, Yoimiya, and Xinyan

Reason why:

Diluc and Yoimiya work as the DPS in this team. Diluc is the Sub-DPS and Yoimiya is the DPs while Bennet works as a support and buffs and Xinyan protects them by shielding them!

1. Crimson Witch of Flames

And we’re finally with our favourite build for Diluc! We repeated a lot that his basic attacks are really important too because they’re, but we can’t forget about his Pyro attacks. They’re part of Diluc’s personality, you know what I mean.

Crimson Witch of Flames is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities which can be obtained from Hidden Palace of Zhou Formula.

Reasons to use this set:

• Crimson Witch of Flames’s 4-Piece Bonus increases Overloaded and Burning DMG by 40%, increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%, and when DiIuc uses his Elemental Skill it’ll increase the 2-Piece Bonus by 50%. It’s the perfect set, yes.
• This build is perfect with teams composed of characters like Xingqiu, Barbara, Kaeya, Ayaka, Diona, and Beidou. Characters that can apply their elements for a long time and can be mixed with Diluc’s Pyro DMG easily.
• If you want to use this set, keep in mind that you’ll need characters such as Xingqiu or Chongyun in your team. These characters will help Amber to deal more Pyro DMG through Elemental Reactions such as Vaporize or Melt.
• This set increases Diluc’s Skill and Burst DMG, but he will deal DMG with his normal attacks too! This set is the perfect one for those who love Elemental Reactions.
• The best weapon for this build is Wolf’s Gravestone, also known as Diluc's Weapon. This claymore can be obtained through wishes and its 2ns stat is ATK. This weapon increases ATK by 20% and attacks against enemies with less than 30% HP increase all party members’ ATK by 40%. It’s perfect with every Claymore character.

Build details:

• Flower: HP
• Plume: Flat ATK
• Sand: ATK%
• Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus
• Circlet: Crit DMG/Crit Rate

Best team for this build:

• Diluc, Xinqiu, Kazuha, and Zhongli

Reason why:

Even if you won’t have a lot of elemental reactions, Diluc can deal Vaporize with Xingqiu while Kazuha and Zhongli decrease enemies’ DEF. Diluc is the DPS in this team and the rest of teammates are supports.
