Who suits the Bell Sword in Genshin Impact
The sword passively gives a good amount of health and looks great on characters with high defense, turning them into a full-fledged tankcapable of withstanding massive amounts of damage. But this is not enough - an elemental skill or an elemental explosion should provide a shield in order to activate the blade's damage passive. The ideal wielder of the Bell Sword would be a dps shielder who needs a lot of health.
- Dori - the heroine heals from her own HP, therefore she is the best carrier of this two-handed weapon. She will not be able to implement the passive ability of the weapon, but she will begin to heal better. But it is important to find a lot of energy recovery in the stats of artifacts.
- Noelle - for her, the claymore will be a good option if there is no sword to protect, and the character has 6 constellations open. In this case, the maid will be able to do good damage and, thanks to the Crystallization reaction and Armored Apron, constantly receive shields that will increase damage. With this weapon, you can make excellent DPS from Noelle, you should also collect a suitable set of artifacts and activate Geo Resonance.
- Beidou is a great choice for her. The elemental skill can deal damage and reveal the passive of the sword, and the bonus health will increase the effectiveness of the elemental skill (durability depends on its maximum HP pool). If you have the first constellation, using elemental blast will apply another shield, also dependent on HP.
- Xinyan – When using the Bell Sword, she will be able to deal 12-24% more damage. If we take into account the increase in physical damage that Xinyan's Resolute Heat will give under her passive, then with this sword the hero will show quite worthy damage numbers.
How to play bell sword in Genshin Impact
After equipping the sword, you can immediately take damage to trigger the first passive effect and wait for this shield to fall or be destroyed. Activating the elemental skill of the characters named above will allow you to get a new one and thus give a significant bonus to damage, since the buffs from it do not stack. In order to receive small fragments from the Crystallization reaction, it is better to take a Geo character to the squad, they are perfect for this purpose Zhongli (because of his elemental skill) or Albedo, which damages a large area.

In theory, could Dori get additional benefit from this sword if she were paired with a Geo character who provides a shield generated by the Crystallization reaction? Logically, this is the best implementation of the sword at the moment, as Dori would be shielded, increasing the damage of her E-type attacks, and would also be able to heal more, benefiting from the HP in the sword's main stat. Beidou's shield, of course, also depends on her HP, but let's be honest—she wants a two-handed weapon for damage; she's a support damage dealer, hardly a full-fledged shielder.
I have a Dehya with a bell... is this normal?
Is the Bell Sword okay for Navi? Or would it be better to use something else?
Noelle wouldn't give a damn about this claymore in white slippers :) She's 100 times better off with the White Shadow, which is easy to make yourself and get you to your 5th awakening in a couple of months.
it yes
Some kind of trash claymore... For Dori you need favonia/ceremonial, for Noel a crafted sword for defense, for Beida either chernogor, or archaic, or MC (if a dendro pack), for Xinyan must-have snow-covered silver (if dps)/again a crafted sword for defense or ceremonial.
The Dehye is so-so, there are tons of better options. It's a truly strange weapon.
