Archons of Genshin Impact are known to be exceptional, but even though Furina turns out to not be one, she's still an amazing character in Genshin Impact. Her presence can massively improve a team's performance, but all this is hidden behind a complicated mechanic.
Therefore, before pulling for Furina in Genshin Impact, players should familiarize themselves with her system to ensure they can make the most out of the pretend-Archon. Here are some examples of the things people need to know before wishing for Furina from her limited banner.
Genshin Impact: 7 Things We Know About Skirk So Far
Travelers first meet Skirk after beating the All-Devouring Narwhal, and she drops some of the biggest Genshin Impact lore.
Is Furina Worth It In Genshin Impact?
Yes, it's worth pulling for Furina in Genshin Impact. She's an amazing off-field damage dealer who can also greatly support her team. Simply put, there’s nothing that Furina doesn’t do for her team, she can even deplete the team's HP casually.
She’s A Buffer
For 18 seconds after Furina activates her Elemental Burst, players will start collecting Fanfare points to increase the team’s damage in Genshin Impact. These Fanfare points are collected when any unit in the party loses or gains HP.
Furina’s mechanics work to drain or heal the HP of the entire party, which can help stack more Fanfare points, not to mention that other characters might add to the stacking themselves. It’s not simple to maximize the stacks, but once players create a team that can, it can be a huge damage buff.
She’s A Strong Sub-DPS
When in Ousia form, Furina’s Elemental Skill summons the three Salon Members that deal damage based on her max HP. This ability continuously drains the team’s HP, which further stacks Furina’s Elemental Burst as she deals great damage for an off-field Sub-DPS unit in Genshin Impact.
At max level, the three Salon Members will inflict around 14%, 10%, and 5% of Furina’s max HP, which can be notable if players build Furina in Genshin Impact to amplify that damage.
Don’t Overestimate Her Hydro Application
Since Hydro is an Element that reacts with all the other Elements, it’s beautiful to have an off-field Hydro enabler like Furina. However, players should be careful since Furina, with all her might, can’t replace the existing Hydro enablers like Xingqiu, Yelan, and Kokomi.
What makes these characters amazing at applying Hydro is their ways of defying internal cooldown (ICD). As for Furina, despite her great off-field damage through her Elemental Skill’s continuous Hydro attacks, Furina's Salon Members have a poor ICD that makes her a slow Hydro enabler.
Can Heal But Need A Second Healer
While Furina is a decent healer, her healing is slow, and she can’t maximize the stacking of her Elemental Burst fast enough. So, for that, she needs another healer who can help heal the team and stack her Fanfare. Not only that, but Furina’s A1 Ascension passive allows her to continuously recover the active character's health if they receive healing from other sources than her.
With these multiple sources of healing, players are bound to quickly complete Furina's Elemental Burst stacks and maximize the buff Furina can give in Genshin Impact.
Has Both Ousia And Pneuma
Not only can the pretend-Archon use both Arkhe mechanics in Genshin Impact, but she’s also able to activate them with ease. Once players use Furina’s charged attacks, she will switch between Ousia and Pneuma states and the next basic attack of each state will activate the corresponding Arkhe-infused attack.
The charged attack mechanic is also responsible for switching the states of Furina’s Elemental Skill, between draining her team’s HP plus dealing high damage to healing the active character.
