Collei is the first four-star Dendro user to be added to the game, and she wields a bow. Since she was released alongside Tighnari’s banner, she is seen as the budget Tighnari who plays a similar role in a team composition. you’re able to also obtain her for free by completing section 4-3 of the Spiral Abyss. Here’s a guide on how to build Collei in Genshin Impact.
Collei’s playstyle
Collei is excellent atdealing consistent Dendro damage to enemies, especially in close quarters. This playstyle takes some time to become familiar with since most bow users thrive in long-range combat, but Collei’s unique abilities still make her an asset to any team. Collei is most effective whenused as a catalyst forElemental Reactions.
Best weapons for Collei
Collei’s ideal weapon is theKing’s Squire bow, acraftable weaponearned from the completion of Sumeru’s World Quests. This weaponincreases Collei’sElemental Masteryfor 12 seconds but does not carry over to other characters in your party. To get the full potential from this weapon, you should apply an element other than Dendro, switch to Collei, and use her Elemental Skill. Then, keep Collei on the field for a few seconds and use basic attacks to inflict consistent damage.
The five-star weaponsElegy for the EndorPolar Starwill suffice if you do not possess the King’s Squire bow. If you are looking for a four-star bow that is easily obtainable, then you’re able to useThe Stringless, which increases her Elemental Burst damage.
Best artifacts for Collei
Collei’s ideal artifact set is theGilded Dreams collection, which boosts Elemental Mastery and provides buffs for other characters in your party. This artifact set’s buff changes depending on the elements in your team composition. If you have another Dendro user in your party, Collei receives a 14% ATK buff. Alternatively, for each character with a different Elemental Type, Collei receives 50 Elemental Mastery.
If you do not possess the Gilded Dreams set, then theDeepwood Memories set will suffice. This set increases Collei’s Dendro damage and decreases the target’s Dendro RES. This artifact set is more effective when you equip Collei with a Dendro DPS build, rather than Elemental Mastery.

Collei’s Energy Recharge is increased by 20% when in the party and not on the field.

From the moment of using Floral Brush to the moment when this instance of Sprout effect ends, if any of your party members triggers Burning, Quicken, Aggravate, Spread, Bloom, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon reactions, the Sprout effect will be extended by three seconds. You can only extend the Sprout effect this way once. The initial effect will be removed if another Sprout effect is triggered during its initial duration. DMG dealt by Sprout is considered Elemental Skill DMG.

Best teammates for Collei
Collei thrives with other Dendro users in her party, although a full Dendro team is not advisable. Rather, she is most effective when paired with one Dendro user and two characters with different Elemental Types. Collei works well withTighnari, especially if she has the Gilded Dreams artifact set equipped. Collei’s desire for Elemental Reactions can be fulfilled by characters likeBeidouandKuki Shinobu, as well as a Hydro character likeAyatoorKokomi. This combination of elemental attacks will trigger Hyperbloom, causing massive damage to opponents.
