Who can play Song of Broken Pines in Genshin Impact
Weapons can be sold to the maximum only physical damage dealers. However, due to the increase in attack power and the highest base among Claymores, it is quite possible to put it on any a main-dd, if there are no alternatives. Another application option is experimental assembly via physical. damage, for example, if the heroes were not originally designed for this.
Song of the Broken Pines is best suited for the following characters:
| Character | Recommendation |
|---|---|
 Eula | The best carrier, since it is a signature weapon created specifically for the heroine’s mechanics and moveset. She gains stacks easily as she mostly attacks with basic or charged attacks. At the same time, increasing the speed and power of attack are key parameters that have a primary impact on the damage dealt. While Elemental Burst Light Sword is active, the more hits she makes, the higher the resulting damage will be. The downside is that the claymore does not provide crits, which makes them harder to balance. |
 Razor | Wolf Boy is also a physical damage dealer, using normal attacks to destroy enemies during and outside of his ultimate. All the “pros” and “cons” listed for Eola are also relevant for him. With this weapon, the character really reveals a new side, becoming much stronger. |
 Xinyan | If she plays through a physical build as the main damage dealer, this claymore is the best option for her, especially if she has C4. Although this will not affect the strength of the shield, your own damage will increase several times if you have high characteristics and balanced crits. |
 Freminet | The weapon is suitable for the hero in all builds, since Freminet attacks physical in any case. damage to one degree or another. A high base attack will make it easier to balance stats and allow you to play without Bennett. |
Partly the sword will do Dilyuk, since he can combine normal attacks and a skill in his rotation. This is far from the best option for him, however, it has a place as an alternative if there are no other two-handed.
How the weapon works
The basic principle of playing with weapons is to apply normal or charged attacks on opponents in order to accumulate stacks (Whisper Seals). The seals themselves revolve around the character.
Once you land the fourth hit, a lyre icon will appear and the Millennium Symphony: Banner's Hymn effect will be activated, which will further increase the attack speed/power of the owner and other allies for 12 seconds.
Rotation when using claymore it looks like this:
- Use Light Attacks or Charged Attacks until you have 3 Whisper Seals.
- Land another hit to activate Millennium Symphony: Banner Hymn.
- Use an elemental burst, a skill, or keep attacking for 20 seconds until you can gain stacks again. While the symphony is active, you can switch to sub-dd, as the boost applies to the entire squad.

What if we put it in Chun Yun?
Only Eola, Razor
I have the same thought. And no one writes about it. I came here with this thought.
Hello! Chun Yun has Cryo Infusion, so he won't be able to utilize the physical damage bonus. Therefore, this sword isn't just unsuitable for him, it's actually contraindicated, so to speak.
No, it's not contraindicated. The sword is suitable for any two-hander who plays based on attack and auto attacks. These characters simply won't be able to utilize all the passive abilities. However, the sword provides a lot in any case, a huge amount of attack power, and also attack speed.
I won't argue with that since I've never played with physical attacks, but are you sure that when playing with an elemental attack like Chun Yun's, the physical damage will be effective? It seems like physical damage is damage that isn't color-coded, meaning it's not elemental. And when it switches to elemental damage, the physical damage probably doesn't count.
Yes, the sword is good for this character because he doesn't always run while infused, but it feels like a transitional option, like "we'll make do with what we have." Because infusion is Chong Yun's strongest trait.
And the presence of infusion means you need to focus on elemental mastery, which means physical damage becomes meaningless because it doesn't scale with MS. You can't build the right artifacts here, and you'll have to sacrifice a lot for no apparent reason.
Well, I'm not arguing, so to speak. If you have other ideas, please explain how it actually works. I've described how it seems to me; I don't play with physical attacks and have little understanding of them, so I'm not insisting on anything.
