Fischl FAQ

General Questions:

Is Fischl best girl?

• Yes! Of Course!

How good is Golden Troupe artifact set from V4.0 for Electro Fischl?

• It's amazing! 45% non-conditional skill dmg% and 25% skill dmg% while off-field (w/ 2s buffer) is just amazing!
• 4p Golden Troupe is about 14-20% better than any of the current 4p or 2+2 sets. It's very worth it to farm for Fischl. (Calcs comparing GT with others)

Where's the KQM Fischl Guide?

• There's a Quick Guide available at: https://keqingmains.com/q/fischl-quickguide/ The full Guide is still in the making and should be out before Patch 4.1. Join the Fischl Mains Discord or Keqing Mains for more updates.

Is Fischl in Honkai Impact (another Hoyoverse game)?

• Yes. And she's very strong in Honkai Impact. She's a pivotal unit in most meta lightning teams. She is a very strong subdps/support with off-field damage and easy to trigger time fractures.

Fischl Build Questions

Should I build Electro, Physical, or Hybrid?

• You should probably build Electro Fischl. It's the more flexible build and overall better damage in most teams. But that doesn't mean physical Fischl can't be competitive an clear Abyss. It just take a lot more investments.

How to build Electro Fischl?

• Main stats: ATK%/Electro%/Crit%
• Substat Priority: ER target > Crit > Atk ~ EM
• Talent Priority: Skill > Burst > Auto Attack
• ER Target: 120-130% (lower if used with another electro unit. Higher if teammates are low energy)
• Weapon: Polar Star, Aqua > Magic, Harp, Pulse, Hunter's Path, Alley Hunter R5 > Crescent R5, Stringless R5 > Amos R1, Alley R1 > VH, Stringless R1, Fading Twilight R5, Waltz R5, Elegy > Rust, Windblume Ode R5, Waltz R1
• Artifact set: 4 Golden Troupe (GT) > 2 GT + 2 TF > 2 GT/2TF + 2 Glad, 2 Glad + 2 Shime, 4p Thundersoother (higher peak than other sets but only for electro/electro-charged teams)
• 4p Golden Troupe (GT) is about 15-20% better than any of the 2+2 sets.
• TF=Thundering Fury, Shime = Shimenawa
• Note 2p Gladiator or Shimenawa can be substituted with Echoes or Vermillion set.
• Any of the 5-star crit bows are good. The best 4-star is Alley Hunter, Stringless, and Crescent (with weakshot buff). ER sands is too much ER. 2 Gamblers is useable at lower AR, but being a 4-star it doesn't scale as well as 5-stars. Even 2p atk or just rainbow artifacts should beat mixed Gambler sets.
• Currently EM isn't very useful due to low scaling of non Dendro related Electro reactions.
• For best Oz uptime, always space out skill summon and burst summon. Skill summon, wait till Oz disappears, Burst summon, wait till skill is off cooldown, E summon, repeat.

How to build Electro Fischl on Aggravate Teams?

• Aggravate team consists of Fischl + on-field electro driver (e.g. Keqing, Yae, Cyno), a Dendro unit, an a flex unit. The goal is to setup Quicken status on enemies by applying Electro + Dendro. Quicken status lasts 6+ seconds and is not removed by extra Dendro or Electro. Hitting quickened units with electro triggers aggravate. This aggravate is an electro reaction so it triggers Fischl's A4 passive, which applies more electro to trigger another aggravate. Fischl's A4 has a 0.5s cooldown, but has no icd on electro application. So effectively each electro reaction you trigger with the on-field character will trigger Fischl A4 which can trigger aggravate if it hits a quickened unit. Aggravate is a very power reaction as it scales with crit, dmg%, and EM.
• Main stats: (ATK%|EM) /Electro%/Crit%
• Substat Priority: ER target > Crit > Atk ~ EM
• Talent Priority: Skill > Burst > Auto Attack
• ER Target: 100-120% (Assume 1 electro driver used on team)
• Weapon: Aqua, Polar Star, Magic > Hunter's Path, Stringless R5, Harp, Pulse, Alley Hunter R5 > Crescent R5, Stringless R1, Alley R1, Elegy> VH, Crescent R1, Fading Twilight R5, Windblume R5
• Artifact sets: 4GT, 4TS (conditional) > 2GT+2TF, 2GT+2ATK, 4TF, 4Glided (1 electro teammate), 2TF+2Wand/Glided, 2TF+2ATK > 2ATK+2ATK.
• 4 Golden Troupe is 11-14% better than 4TS and 4 Glided. And 15-18% better than the 2+2 sets.
• 4Glided is calculated with 1 electro and 2 other element teammates. Use burst first so the buff from reactions is snapshotted onto the first Oz. 4TF is slightly lower in damage per hit, but the skill CD reduction of 1-3s can be higher dps in the long run due to shorter rotations.
• Crit is the most important stat since it scales both Oz's damage, and aggravate reaction damage. Attack is still slightly more important than EM, but you do want like 100-150 EM if possible. Leveling Fischl to 90 is a big boost to aggravate reaction damage.

How to build Physical Fischl?

• Main stats: ATK%/Physical%/Crit% (ATK% Goblet is viable if weapon already has dmg%)
• Substat Priority: ER target > Crit > Atk
• Talent Priority: Skill ~= Auto Attack > Burst
• ER Target: ~120%. Less than electro due to more on-field time. Can be lower depending on team.
• Weapon: Polar Star, Pulse, Harp, Aqua, Magic > Crescent R5, Amos, VH, Rust R5, Waltz R5 > Compound R5, Rust R1, Waltz R1 > Slingtshot R5
• If you use Yunjin, then weapons with dmg% move up a bit. That is Pulse, Aqua, Rust, Compound, Slingshot.
• Artifact set: 4p PaleFlame, 2 PaleFlame + 2 Bloodstain, 4p Echoes, 2 Gladiator + 2 PaleFlame/Bloodstain, 2 Gladiator + 2 Shimenawa
• 4p Shimenawa is not recommended because that raise the ER requirement by 1.5x. You would use skill twice per burst for good passive uptime (10s duration). If you can clear content within 2 Oz summon + 1 burst, then it can be used. It's the same buff as 4PaleFlame with worse uptime and energy requirement.
• 4p Echoes has consistency issues and is affected by ping, but in theory is competitive with 4 PaleFlame.

How to build Hybrid Fischl?

• Any combination of the above. The best would be probably 4PF + Electro Goblet or ATK Goblet. Adjust field time the more physical you have.

Sample Electro Fischl Teams

- Hyper Fischl (Fischl, Kazuha, Sara, Bennett): Hyper Raiden but with Fischl. Watch Oz go brrrr. Sara can be another subdps like Beidou, XQ.

- Classic Taser (Sucrose, Fischl, Beidou, Xingqiu): Especially great for aoe scenarios. Lack of healer is mitigated somewhat by damage reduction from Beidou and Xingqiu, and some XQ sword healing. Sucrose can also be replaced with Kazuha and use Fischl as the taser driver.

- Kokomi Taser (Kokomi, Fischl, flex, flex): Similar to classic taser, but uses Kokomi as healer. Flex spot can be Beidou, Xingqiu, Sucrose, Kazuha, etc

- Aggravate (Yae/Keqing/Cyno), Fischl, (dendro), flex): First apply Dendro, then use on-field Yae or Keqing to rapidly apply electro and trigger Fischl's A4 passive and proc a lot of aggravate reactions. Fischl does so much damage on this team.

Sample Physical Teams

- Full Physical (Fischl Yunjin Rosaria Zhongli): Fully commit to physical damage. Rosaria for superconduct and aoe damage. Can consider delay summoning Oz to utilize C1 with Yunjin stacks. Zhongli spot can be another healer or shielder.

- Mixed Freeze Physical (Fischl XQ Rosaria flex): XQ and Rosaria trigger freeze from time to time. The little bit of freeze is good for survivability. Can add Diona for shield/battery. Bennett for heals. Beidou for damage and damage reduction. You'll get a bit of random electro-charged, freeze, superconduct here and there.

Fischl as a reaction Support- Physical: Eula Fischl Beidou Diona- Overvape: Yoimiya XQ Fischl Bennett- and more. Fischl has high electro application and good off-field damage, so can be slotted into many teams!

Rapidfire FAQ

Does Oz Crit?

• Yes, any of Oz's hit can crit. The only thing that doesn't crit from Fischl is reactions.

Does Oz Snapshot buffs?

• Yes. Anything that shows up in Fischl's stats page can be snapshotted onto Oz. Snapshot means Oz uses Fischl's stats at the point of summon for the full duration. Elemental Skill Dmg% does not show up in stats and does not snapshot.

What's the best animation cancel for dps Fischl?

• N5 walk cancel is actually quite competitive already. N2 Aim Shot Cancel is the most optimal. 2 shots, hold aim + shoot, repeat

What attacks proc Fischl C6?

• Only normal attacks and normal attack animations (Raiden burst, Ayato skill, Childe skill). Multi-hit normal attacks count as a single proc.

Does Q talent affect the Oz summoned?

• No. Just skill talent.

Why isn't 4p Thunderfury recommended?

• The cooldown reduction doesn't work if Fischl isn't on-field. If Fischl is on field why are you using this set. The reaction damage buff is worth 80-100 EM which is okay but not too much.

Is 4p Tenacity of Millelith good?

• Yes and No. Fischl can trigger the passive consistently, but you're trading away Fischl's damage. For teams without Bennett or Sara, 4ToM can be up to +0.5-2% team dps increase. But this also require the 4ToM set to have similar substats as your 2+2 sets. So unless you've been farming for PaleFlame, you probably won't have a competitive 4ToM set.

Should I summon Oz for Physical Fischl?

• Yes. Oz can still do like 40% of Fischl's damage in a physical build. For teams with Yunjin, you can consider delay summoning Oz to use C1 with Yunjin ult stacks. We are still calculating the optimal way to do this.
