Faruzan in Genshin Impact: Build Guide and Squad Guide

In Genshin impact Faruzan is an Epic Anemo archer and part-time scholar from the Haravatat Darshan in Sumeru. All her skills, including the unique buff, scale with the basic attack stat, while her ult is quite expensive, so it is important to carefully select the characteristics.

Playing the scientist is somewhat complicated by a specific rotation, including the use of charged shots. The heroine is planned to be a support for Anemo squads and, depending on the unlocked consts, can reduce resistance, boost critical damage of this element and pull enemies.

How to Get the Character

The banner where you can get Faruzan takes place in the first phase the 6.2 update, lasting since 3 to 23 December 2025The Archer is also permanently present in the standard banner. All constellations are unlocked by acquiring copies of the heroine.

Follow the character release schedule in our banner schedule.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Given the specifics and mechanics of skills, constellations and talents, we can draw general conclusions about her strengths and weaknesses. Among the key advantages of the heroine are:

• A great support buffer for any Anemo dd.
• Reduces Anemo resistance of enemies by 30% and grants bonus Anemo damage with her ult - 18% at level 1 and 32.4% at level 10.
• Can pull enemies with an elemental skill and deal damage to an area. The ability has a quick cooldown of 6 seconds.
• The Lost Wisdom of the Seven Caverns passive talent reduces the charge time of the aimed shot, which allows you to create a vortex during the elemental skill. At the same time, hitting enemies with this vortex reduces their resistance to Anemo, even without an active ult.
• The Lost Wisdom of the Seven Caverns passive talent increases damage dealt to enemies based on ATK when the active character is under the effect of an elemental damage buff.
• There's an option to build Faruzan into a damage dealer using her own buffs.

Disadvantages:

• Her elemental burst costs 80 energy, which is quite a lot, and it also has a long cooldown of 20 seconds. At the same time, the ult is the main skill of support and strength of the heroine.
• The buffs do not work for characters of elements other than Anemo, which limits the composition of squads where she can effectively be a support.
• Has a low base attack, which makes it difficult to build her as a damage dealer using normal attacks.
• Low own defense and health stats require healers or shielders to be on the team if she is often on the battlefield.

Best Faruzan Builds in Genshin Impact

The teacher of the academy is a powerful Anemo buffer, however, she can also use her skills to increase her own damage, as the bonuses apply to any character that deals damage with this element. Most often plays the role of a the support role, since in this case it is much easier for her to play well. However, in the guide we will consider two variations of the Faruzan build.

Recommended Stats

Below are the artifact stats and optimal final stat values ​​for each build.

Support buffer

If the archer is used to strengthen the main character, the most important thing for her is to gain as much energy recharge as possible to activate the ult on cooldown. The rest of the stats affect only her personal damage. Crits and ATK are desirable if you want the archer to also deal damage. Elemental Mastery is gained if it is necessary to increase the power of Swirl for other elements.

Stats that are recommended to look for in artifacts:

Artifact	Main characteristic	Additional stats
Flower of Life	HP (fixed)	Energy Recharge % ATK Power % Crit / Critical Hit Chance Elemental Mastery
Plume of Death	ATK Power (Constant)	Energy Recharge % ATK Power % Crit / Critical Hit Chance Elemental Mastery
Sands of Eon	Energy Recharge %	ATK Power % CRIT Crit Rate Elemental Mastery
Goblet of Eonothem	Bonus Anemo Damage %	Energy Recharge % ATK Power % Crit Rate CRIT
Circlet of Logos	Crit / Critical Hit Chance	Energy Recharge % Crit / Critical Hit Chance ATK Power % Elemental Mastery

Optimal stat values:

• Energy recharge: 220% and more.
• Attack power: 1500 and more.
• Crit chance and crit.: ratio 1:2 (50 rate and 100 dmg).
• Elemental Mastery (when playing with Swirl): about 250-300.

Sub/Main DD

In this case, the ATK and crit are as effective as energy recharge. They need to be kept in balance to achieve maximum impact, since energy should not be neglected anyway. The ult is still a powerful buff that is important for the heroine herself if she also deals damage.

Stats that are recommended to look for in artifacts:

Artifact	Main characteristic	Additional stats
Flower of Life	HP (fixed)	CRIT Crit Rate ATK Power% Energy Recovery % / Elemental Mastery
Plume of Death	ATK Power (Constant)	CRIT Crit Rate Energy Recharge % ATK Power % / Elemental Mastery
Sands of Eon	ATK Power %  Energy Recharge %	Energy Recovery % / ATK Power % CRIT Crit Rate Elemental Mastery
Goblet of Eonothem	Bonus Anemo Damage %	CRIT Crit Rate ATK Power % Energy Recharge %
Circlet of Logos	Crit / Critical Hit Chance	Crit / Critical Hit Chance Energy Recharge % ATK Power % Elemental Mastery

Optimal stat values:

• Attack power: 1900-2000 and more.
• Crit chance and crit.: ratio 1:2 (60 rate and 120 dmg).
• Energy recharge: 200% and more.
• Elemental Mastery (when playing with Swirl): about 250-300.

Useful weapon

The weapon must have the following characteristics depending on her role:

• Support – energy recovery, buffs for the team.
• DPS – attack power, crit rate or chance, energy recovery.

Note that high Basic ATK will not be out of place in both cases, since the strength of the passive talent buff depends on it.

However, she will not be able to receive the attack power buff in all squads, and it will not affect the strength of her own buff, since only the base stat is considered.

Effective artifacts

Artifacts for Faruzan are selected depending on what role she occupies in the squad:

• For support and sup-dd, bonuses for the team are important and also energy recharge.
• For dealing damage you will need bonus to elemental damage and skill damage, and also restoration of energy.

Name	Description	Recommendation
Noblesse Oblige ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 Piece: Elemental burst Damage Bonus 20%. 4 Piece: The attack power of all party members is increased by 20% for 12 seconds. after activating an elemental burst by a character equipped with this set. The set effect does not stack.	The set will increase the power of the ult and allow you to buff your allies' attack after activating it. A universal set for almost any support.
Emblem of Severed Fate ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 Piece: Energy recovery +20% 4 Piece: Increases elemental burst damage by an amount equal to 25% of ER. Max bonus is 75%.	Considering the hero's expensive ult, the set is great both in 2 parts and in a full set. In addition, depending on the energy recovery value, it will increase the damage from this skill. An excellent set for both the support role with passive damage and the main DD.
Viridescent Venerer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 Piece: Anemo damage bonus 15%. 4 Piece: Swirl status damage is increased by 60%. Reduces enemy's elemental resistance by 10% for 40 sec. when Swirl interacts with another element.	If the hero is built into EM and plays from interaction with other elements, she can be given this set. However, if the heroine is exclusively a support for an Anemo damager and there are no strong elemental sub-DDs in the team, this set is not worth choosing.
Viridescent Venerer / Emblem of Severed Fate / Gladiator’s Finale ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 Piece: +15 Anemo damage. 2 parts: +18% attack power. 2 Piece: +20% energy recovery.	Alternatively, you can put 2 parts from different sets, including sets for +18% attack power (for dealing damage with abilities).

The Exile ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 Piece: Increases energy recovery rate by 20%. 4 Piece: Using an elemental burst restores 2 energy to the rest of the squad (not the selected character) every 2 sec. within 6 sec. The effect cannot stack.	Alternative starter set, more for the support role. It allows you to ult more often and at the same time restore energy to allies.

Teams

Despite her Anemo element, the scientist doesn't have many characters that she can directly team up with. All of her abilities are aimed at Anemo damage buffing, and it she not provide any other enhancements. Although she can be used to Swirl and reduce elemental resistance with the Viridescent Venerer. But it should be borne in mind that in this case, the buffs from the ult and passive talent will not give the rest of the squad virtually anything.

If there are no other alternatives, the heroine will cope with this role when built into EM, but it is better to use more suitable characters for this (for example, Sucrose, Anemo Traveler, Kazuha, Venti). The archer is better teamed up with Anemo dps. It is only worth using a heroine with other elements if she is a damage dealer herself, and then her buffs will at least be useful for increasing her own attack power.

Characters with good synergy

Let's look at the heroes that are best suited for Faruzan's teams.

Damage dealers

As mentioned above, she plays best with Anemo damage dealers. Yet, don't forget about sub-DDs of other elements that can provide various buffs or help with creating the Swirl reaction.

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Varka	Anemo	Claymore	Simultaneously attacks with Wind and Pyro/Cryo/Hydro/Electro elements. Although the damage percentage is higher with the latter, the Anemo elemental boost will still significantly increase Varka's damage.

Beidou	Electro	Claymore	Allows the active character to deal Electro damage to nearby enemies during the elemental burst. On the 1st constellation also generates shields.

Supports

Since the scientist has no protective functions, the team should have a healer or shielder who will save the squad. In addition to them, you can consider buffers for various characteristics and combat mechanics.

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Kazuha	Anemo	One-handed sword	Faruzan will increase the damage of Kazuha's elemental skill and elemental burst. She also allows him to be a better damage dealer.
Anemo Traveler	Anemo	One-handed sword	On the last constellation, also reduces enemy resistance to Anemo by 20%. Together with Faruzan in this way, they can reduce elemental resistances by up to 50%.

Dori	Electro	Claymore	Heals and simultaneously restores energy to the active character.
Zhongli	Geo	Polearm	Provides strong shields and lowers the elemental resistance of enemies.

Examples of strong teams

If she is playing a support role, it is advisable to have an Anemo DD in the squad, since her bonuses only work for this element (e.g. Gorou). If she is the main DD herself, she can use buffs to increase her own damage, and use other elements to Swirl with skills.

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features
Varka	Faruzan	Durin Fischl Mona	Bennett Iansan Yelan	For closed resonance Hexenzirkel the character in the third slot answers. If you take Mona equip it on her Prototype AmberTo ensure there's healing in the team. Iansan and Bennett are capable of healing with their skills.

Xiao	Faruzan	Xiangling	Diona	Team with Pyro and Cryo Swirl. Faruzan increases Xiao's own damage. Xiangling can also deal damage while his elemental burst is on cooldown. Dione will provide a heal and a shield.
Kazuha	Faruzan	Fischl	ThomaDiona	Kazuha is the main damage dealer in this case. Faruzan increases his elemental damage, Fischl uses her elemental skill to summon Oz to Swirl Electro. The last slot can be filled with a healer/shielder, who can also distribute status from off-field for Swirling.
Kazuha	Faruzan	XingqiuYelan	Layla	The squad allows you to almost constantly keep enemies under control thanks to Frozen and pulling from Kazuha and Faruzan. This deals increased Anemo damage due to the archer's buffs.
Heizou	Faruzan	Mona	Dori	Team with Heizou through Hydro and Electro Swirl. Faruzan helps generate energy, buffs Anemo damage, and lowers enemy resistance. Mona similarly acts as a buffer and source of Hydro status. Dori additionally restores energy with her elemental burst, as well as heals and helps Swirling Electro.

Skills

Faruzan is an Anemo Buffer whose skills are aimed at helping the team by pulling enemies together when using an elemental skill and lowering their resistance to Anemo with an ultimate. She is also able to apply an effect to characters that gives a bonus to Anemo damage.

Next, we will take a closer look at how the heroine’s skills work and in what order it is best to upgrade them.

Basic (Active) Skills

Passive Skills

Leveling Order

The key skill of the scientist is her elemental burst. It allows the archer to maximize her abilities as a buffer, since the Anemo damage bonus grows with the level. It should be leveled first of all to 9-10.

Her Elemental Skill is also a pretty strong control skill. In addition, when unlocking the passive talent Impetuous Flow, it also lowers Anemo resistance, just like the ult. Normal attacksare worth leveling up only if you use the archer as your main DD. But it's worth considering that the damage of this skill is still quite low.

Constellations

Best constellations of Faruzan are C2,С4 and С6:

• The second constellation will increase the duration of the ult, which means the buffs will be active a little longer. In particular, the usual duration of the ult is 12 seconds, each bonus lasts 4 seconds. That is, they could be updated at best no more than 3 times. Also, after this, it was necessary to wait another 8 seconds for the cooldown. However, after receiving C2, the elemental burst lasts 18 seconds, which means that the buffs can be updated 1 more time, and there will be 2 seconds left until the end of the recharge instead of 8.
• The fourth one solves the energy gain problem as she can generate 4 extra energy every time she uses an elemental skill.
• The sixth constellation allows you to increase Anemocritical damage of the active character during the ult by 40%. This is not only a great buff for Anemo DPS, but also for the archer herself. In fact, C6 increases her potential as both a damage dealer and a buffer at the same time.

How to play Faruzan

The heroine is first and foremost an Anemo buffer , aimed to increase the elemental damage of the main damage dealer with her Elemental Burst , while reducing the enemies' resistance to Anemo. Therefore, the basis for the effective use of Faruzan's abilities is the consistent use of elemental skill to gain energy. Despite somewhat a narrow focus, the heroine can use her own buffs to attack. But even so, the principle of the game does not change. The only thing is that she has to be present on the battlefield more often, and not go into the pocket.

Rotation

The order of activation of skills in the squad where she is a support, is as follows:

1. Use skills and buffs for the rest of the supports from the pocket.
2. Switch to Faruzan and use her elemental skill, moving into the state of Manifest Gale. Then release a charged shot at enemies, thereby creating a vortex and getting particles of energy.
3. Activate the ultimate, then switch to Anemo damag dealer and start attacking enemies with skills and regular attacks until all the buffs are over.
4. Repeat from step 1.

For Anemo archer in the position of a main dps the rotation is as follows:

1. Activate elemental abilities and buffs for supports.
2. Switch to Faruzan, use her E and charged shot to create a vortex and generate energy particles.
3. Use her elemental burst, thereby receiving a bonus to Anemo strikes and reducing the resistance of enemies for 12 seconds, then attack. You can also switch to other supports and sub-dds to update their skills in the arena if you play through Swirl.
4. After 6 seconds, re-apply the elemental skill and the charged shot to once again pull off all the opponents.
5. While the skill is recharging and the ult is on cooldown, repeat the rotation from step 1.

Character Summary

Faruzan is a unique Anemo support, which has no analogues in Genshin Impact, since most often the characters of this element are aimed at strengthening other elements and increasing the power of the Dispersion reaction. However, it allows Anemo damage dealers, increasing their damage and decreasing enemy resistance to this element. Also, with certain builds, she can do her own damage, using her buffs.

If you need a support hero or sub-dd for a team with Anemo DPS (Wanderer, Xiao or Heizou), the scientist from Sumeru Academy will do an amazing job here.
