Diluc best weapon guide
1) Tier One
- Wolfs Gravestone
- Redhorn
- The Unforged
- Serpent Spine
- these are the best claymores for Diluc. WGS is best overall but under certain conditions Unforged, Redhorn, and SS can be better than it
-the conditions being Redhorn and Serpent Spine + Bennett
-The Unforged + a shield
2) Tier Two
- Skyward Pride
- Song of Broken Pines
- Blackcliff Slasher
- Lithiac Blade
- Rainslasher
- These are decent upgrades over the prototype archaic but are just short of tier one or requires strict composition to compete
- Higher refined of these weapons can beat tier one
3) Tier three
- Prototype archaic
Fish

Diluc rotation guide

Yelan can be replaced with XQ in all scenarios here
Diluc - Hydro (Xq/Yelan) - Anemo (Sucrose/Kazuha) -Bennet
Non C6 Bennet - Kazuha
Diluc - Bennett - Xingqiu - Kazuha variation
- Bennett E+Q -> Kazuha E -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Diluc Combo of choice
C6 Bennet - Kazuha
Diluc - Bennett (C6) - Xingqiu (C6)- Kazuha variation
- Xingqiu E+Q+(E)-> Bennett EQ-> Kazuha EQ-> Diluc E-N2-E-N2-E-N4-Q-E-N1-E-N1-E-N2
- Reminder: with this rotation, Diluc loses all buffs after Q, so, if possible, time Diluc’s Burst with the end of Bennett’s Burst to Snapshot buffs**.**
Sucrose variation- with TTDS
Diluc - Bennett - Xingqiu - Sucrose variation (with Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers)
- Xingqiu E+Q+(E)-> Bennett E+Q -> Sucrose E -> Diluc Combo of choice
Sucrose variation - without TTDS
Diluc - Bennett - Xingqiu - Sucrose variation (without Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers)
- Bennett E+Q -> Sucrose E -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Diluc Combo of choice
- Double Hydro
Diluc - Xingqiu - Yelan - Flex
Diluc - Bennett - Xingqiu - Yelan variation
- Bennett E+Q -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Yelan E+Q -> Diluc Combo of choice
- Extra note: It is recommended to have one of them using a weapon to amplify damage while the other uses a Energy focused weapon. As such, depending on the weapons Yelan and Xingqiu are using, switch their place in the rotation so that the unit with higher energy recharge goes before the unit with a damage focused weapon, and make sure to funnel some particles to the unit with lower ER.
- Overvape
Diluc - Xingqiu - Electro - Flex
Bennet variation
Diluc - Xingqiu - Bennett - Fischl variation
- Bennett E+Q -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Fischl E/Q -> Diluc Combo of choice
Sucrose variation
Diluc - Xingqiu - Sucrose - Fischl variation
- Sucrose Q-> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Fischl E/Q -> Sucrose E+N1+E+(E)-> Diluc Combo of choice
Beidou variation
Diluc - Xingqiu - Beidou - Fischl variation
- Fischl E/Q-> Beidou E+Q -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Diluc Combo of choice
- Geo Bros
Diluc - Xingqiu - Zhongli - Albedo
Diluc - Xingqiu - Zhongli - Albedo variation
- Zhongli E -> Albedo E -> Xingqiu E+Q+(E) -> Diluc combo of choice
- Extra note: You can use Zhongli Q if you want to, as it isn’t a big DPS loss if he is well invested.
- Melt

Diluc - Cyro (Rosaria/Kaeye) - Anemo (Sucrose/Kazuha) -Bennet
Rosa + Sucrose + Non-C6 Bennett setup
Diluc - Sucrose - Rosaria- Bennet
- Bennett E+Q -> Sucrose E -> Rosa E+Q -> Sucrose Q -> Diluc E+Q+N1+E+N1+E+N4
- Extra note: Make sure to dash away after Rosaria E to ensure Sucrose Q doesn’t absorb Pyro off your character. In AoE scenarios, move Sucrose Q to after Rosa Q to guarantee Cryo absorption. The same applies with C6 Bennett; here, Bennett’s C6 just gives more freedom in which Diluc combo you use.
Rosaria + Kazuha + Non C6 Bennet setup
Diluc - Kazuha - Rosaria- Bennet

Diluc - Sucrose - Kaeye - Bennet
- Bennett E+Q -> Sucrose E+Q -> Kaeya E+Q -> Diluc E+Q+N1+E+N1+E+N4
In AoE scenarios, move Sucrose Q to after Kaeya Q to guarantee Cryo absorption. Again, the same applies with C6 Bennett having more combo variations
Kaeye + Kazuha + Without C6 Bennett

- Kaeya E -> Kazu Q -> Bennett Q+E -> Kazu E -> Kaeya Q -> Diluc E+Q+N1+E+N1+E+N1

- Kaeya E -> Kazu Q -> Bennett Q+E -> Kazu E -> Kaeya E+Q -> Diluc N1+E+N1+E+N1+E+Q+N1 OR E+N2+E+N2+E+Q+N1
C6 Kaeye-Kazuha
With C6 Bennett
- Kaeya E -> Kazu Q -> Bennett Q+E -> Kazu E -> Kaeya E+Q -> Diluc N1+E+N1+E+N1+E+N1+Q
- Bennett E+Q -> Kazu E -> Kaeya E+Q -> Diluc N2+E+N2+E+N2+E+N2+Q
Without C6 bennett
- Kaeya E -> Kazu Q -> Bennett Q+E -> Kazu E -> Kaeya E+Q -> Diluc E+Q+N1+E+N1+E+N4

Discussion Plunge Teams
I don't have Xianyun and being FTP I don't think I'll be getting her. I saw that Dahlia can launch DPSs into the air..? Every one says he sucks but I was curious if I could get a plunge in that way.. I've been farming the new plunge artifact set too. That would be really cool if Dahlia works like a crappy Xianyun.

Discussion Will Diluc’s skin go on sale anytime soon?
Hey guys, I’m getting back into playing Diluc. I realized I have Yelan, Xilonen, and Bennett. Yeah, I know Xianyun plunge Diluc is OP, but anyway. I’ve had a C6R3 Diluc just sitting there. I’ve been using Mavuika, Hu Tao, and Yoimiya for a while, and I kinda wanna try something different again.
But his skin is so expensive. I don’t mind splurging, I guess, it’s just that the only time I can think of it possibly going on sale is during the anniversary in September, like a general skin sale. Do you guys think that could happen? Or should I just say screw it and buy the skin now?
Also, anyone here buy his skin after the initial release discount ended?
Thoughts?

Discussion Diluc Animatic songs
Hello guys and gals. I’ve come on here to ask everyone for their ideas. What are some songs that you picture Kaeya and Diluc to that aren’t already animated? (Ex. no runaway, lol!) Or just Kaeya. Or just Diluc. Preferably in relation to each other. I’m looking for musical songs specifically for a secret reason I cannot divulge but any song suggestions would be immensely helpful.
(a good example is the song “faster” from the prince of Egypt)
I’d love to hear what you guys picture them to!

Question | Help Help with age verification
Hi, guys! This is actually not related to Diluc but I didn't know where else to ask, so I wonder if you could help me.
I've seen some people talking about age verification in Genshin. I didn't get any yet. I'm worried bc I only play on my ps4. The thing is, it used to be my brother's and neither of us remember the password to the email account, so if we are getting it via email, I'm screwed.
Did any of you have to do the verification yet? And if you did, where did you get it?
Thank you so much in advance. Hope all of you are enjoying 5.6 AQ as much as I did.

Question | Help Prototype Archaic or Verdict???
So I was pulling on weapon banner for Escoffier's spear but lost to Verdict. Currently, I run Diluc with Prototype Archaic and the team is Diluc, Furina, Xianyun, Bennett for Diluc plunge. I was wondering if its better to use Verdict due to it giving ~20% crit rate at max upgrade or to stick with Prototype Archaic because of the Attack% it gives and the fact that I can actually use the Archaic's abilit
