Dori’s best weapon is the four-star Sacrificial Greatsword thanks to its high energy recharge and potential to reset her cooldowns. Her best artifacts are a combination of Tenacity of the Milelith and Emblem of Severed Fate to buff her HP and energy recharge.
Above all, your main aim for Dori is to get her energy recharge up to about 200% or higher, as her main utility is her burst. After that, you should aim to increase her HP% and elemental mastery.
How should I use Dori?
Dori is a unique character with rare support capabilities, both healing her allies and regenerating energy. She makes for a pretty great battery, too, making her a great support choice for any team with energy-hungry DPS. Her main utility is her burst which she uses to heal her allies even when she is off the field.
On the other hand, her personal damage really isn’t great, and she does require a lot of energy recharge to maximize her own potential. But in the right team, she can be a true asset.
What are the best Dori weapons?
Generally speaking, Sacrificial Greatsword is one of the best weapons for Dori. Despite it being a four-star, its high energy recharge and the cooldown reset of its skill makes it pull ahead of five-star options like Skward Pride. That being said, Skyward Pride is still a strong option if you’ve got a spare copy laying around.
Favonius Greatsword and Katsuragikiri Nagamasa are good alternates if you don’t have the weapons mentioned above, if only as stat-sticks to boost her energy recharge.
| Weapon | Effect | How to obtain |
| Sacrificial Greatsword | Bonus stat: energy recharge Skill: after damaging an opponent with an elemental skill, the skill has a 40% to end its own cooldown. This can only occur once every 30 seconds |
Gacha |
| Skyward Pride | Bonus stat: energy recharge Skill: increases all damage by 8%. Creates a vacuum blade upon an elemental burst, normal, or charged attack hit. The vacuum blade does 80% of attack as damage to enemies along its path. Lasts for 20 seconds or eight vacuum blades |
Gacha |
| Favonius Greatsword | Bonus stat: energy recharge Skill: crit hits have a 60% chance to generate a small number of elemental particles, which regenerate six energy for the character. Can only occur once every 12 seconds |
Gacha |
| Katsuragikiri Nagasama | Bonus stat: energy recharge Skill: increases elemental skill damage by 6%. After your elemental skill hits an opponent, Dori loses three energy but regenerates three energy every two seconds for the next six seconds. This effect can occur once every ten seconds and can trigger even when Dori isn’t in the field |

What are the best Dori artifacts?
Generally, combining two Emblem of Severed Fate with two Tenacity of the Milelith best suits Dori in most situations. Noblesse Oblige is also a good option if no one else on the team has a full set, or you can go with a full set of Emblem of Severed Fate.
| Artifact set | Effect | How to obtain |
| Tenacity of the Milelith | Two equipped: HP +20% Four equipped: upon hitting an enemy with an elemental skill, all nearby party members gain 20% attack and 30% shield strength for three seconds. You can trigger this effect once every 0.5 seconds, even if Dori is not on the field |
Ridge Watch domain on Bishui Plain, Liyue |
| Emblem of Severed Fate | Two equipped: energy recharge +20% Four equipped: increases elemental burst damage by 25% of energy recharge. You can obtain a maximum of 75% bonus damage in this way |
Momiji-Dyed Court domain on Yashiori Island in Inazuma |
| Noblesse Oblige | Two equipped: elemental burst damage +20% Four equipped: increases all party members’ attack by 20% for 12 seconds after using an elemental burst. This effect cannot stack |
Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern domain in Minlin, Mt. Aozang, or from the Noblesse Oblige Artifact Strongbox |

What are the best Dori team comps?
As a battery supporter, Dori works wonderfully in a range of energy-hungry team comps in need of a healer. She’s a great addition to a multi-element team, but also fits in well in an otherwise mono-geo team using Genshin Impact’s Itto, Genshin Impact’s Gorou, and Genshin Impact’s Albedo.
Here’s an example of a strong, F2P-friendly Dori team comp:
| First character slot | Second character slot | Third character slot | Fourth character slot |
 Dori |
 Fischl |
 Sucrose |
 Geo Traveler |
