Who is the Rangefinder bow suitable for in Genshin Impact?

This bow is suitable for primary and secondary damage dealers. The weapon provides a bonus to attack power and elemental damage, and will perform well both in the game through reactions and in mono-elemental units. Since the weapon's passive ability works even when the character is not on the battlefield, the bow serves as an excellent option for heroes dealing damage from the pocket. The rangefinder is suitable for the following characters:

Character	Recommendation
Lyney	Attack power and element. damage will significantly strengthen the hero. Even though it has a built-in self-heal, it is important to consider that it is used at the end of the rotation. Therefore, to activate the Rangefinder passive skill, a healer in the squad is still needed.
Amber	The weapon will perform well when playing through an elemental skill and ult, but for this you will need constellations (minimum 2). While they are gone, it is better to choose another weapon that will allow you to play through charged attacks.
Yoimiya	The bow will perform well if the squad has a healer with constant healing. In squads with shield warriors or a small amount of healing, it is better not to take this bow.
Fischl	She's a completely elemental player, so Rangefinder is perfect for her. Fischl can serve as a pocket damage dealer, so it’s better to add a healer to her squad who can heal the entire team at once (Barbara, Kokomi, Baizhu, Qiqi. Can I have some more Yaoyao, but not very profitable, since with the ult it will only heal once).
Tartaglia	Tartaglia benefits from the onion effect, but in a team with Bennett It is quite difficult to implement it, especially at the beginning of the battle. Can be used in the absence of other alternatives or in squads with healers who can heal regardless of current HP.
Venti	The weapon is suitable for a hybrid build, especially on high awakenings. But in the build through the full EM and blowing the onion will not open.
Ganyu	The bow will perform better in teams from Freeze with healers than in teams from Para with Bennett. For Cryo teams, weapons will be provided not only by ale. damage, but also extremely valuable attack power. The rangefinder can be used not only for main-dd, but also for sub-dd of Ganyu, however, it is important to take into account that the heroine’s ultimate has a snapshot mechanic (stats are fixed at the moment the skill is used). Therefore, activate it after gaining all the stacks, since after that you will not be able to increase the damage.
Jahoda	The elemental bonus to Yagoda is not necessary, but a large number of increases to ATK will positively impact the quality of healing and allow you to gain more HE% in artifacts.

How does a bow rangefinder work?

For the full buff from the passive effect of the Rangefinder bow, you need heal character twice. This can be done both as healers in the squad, and with the help of the skills of the bow carrier himself, if he has the ability to self-heal. After each healing you will receive label, which acts 30 seconds.

Reach 3 marks and activate an E-shka or elemental explosion, which will cause the “Repulse” effect, increasing attack power and bonus elemental damage. This effect occurs once every 15 seconds and works even if the character is not on the battlefield.

The rotation when playing with the Rangefinder is as follows:

1. Start with the bow carrier. Gain energy on it to activate your ultimate, if necessary, to prepare for battle.
2. Use the healer's healing skills even if the team and the bow carrier are at full HP to fulfill the condition for activating the passive ability. It is advisable to collect as many stacks as possible, ideally all 3.
3. Switch to your allies and activate their abilities to strengthen the damage dealer with this weapon.
4. Return to the bow carrier and activate the E-shka or ult. All marks will immediately turn into a buff, strengthening the character. Depending on what role the damage dealer occupies in the team, continue to deal damage for him or switch to other heroes.
