Best Weapons For Ororon in Genshin Impact

Ororon joins the Genshin Impact roster as a 4-star Electro sub-DPS, excelling in Electro-Charged reaction teams. He’s able to inflict off-field Electro DMG through different means, may it be through his Elemental Skill, Elemental Burst or Passive ability. His versatility allows players to build him with different roles in mind, whether as a support character or focusing more on his personal DPS.

This flexibility is reflected in the range of bow options that can boost his performance, depending on the stats needed. Here are some of the best bow choices for Ororon considering both for his own damage, or other options that can help the team’s overall DMG instead with certain buffs. Ideal stats to look for while choosing a bow for Ororon includes Crit Rate, Crit DMG, ATK, Elemental Mastery or Energy Recharge. Players should also pay attention to whether the bow’s effect can work off-field.

7 Favonius Warbow

• Primary Stat: 454 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 61.3% Energy Recharge
• R5 Effect: CRIT hits have a 100% chance to generate a small amount of Elemental Particles, which will regenerate 6 Energy for the character. Can only occur once every 6s.

Favonius Warbow is a decent choice for players aiming to add battery utility to Ororon, allowing them to de-prioritize Energy Recharge when building his artifacts. The Energy Recharge provided by the bow is typically sufficient to ensure consistent Elemental Burst uptime. However, to make this weapon work effectively, players need to focus on maximizing Ororon’s Crit Rate, as it’s essential for reliably generating Energy particles. Fortunately, Ororon benefits greatly from Crit stats due to his sub-DPS role, so building Crit Rate not only enhances his particle generation but also boosts his overall damage output.

6 The Stringless

• Primary Stat: 510 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 165 Elemental Mastery
• R5 Effect: Increases Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 48%.

Considering that Ororon excels in Electro-charged teams, especially following the buffs to certain Electro-based reactions, the Elemental Mastery provided by The Stringless can be quite valuable. This stat boosts his reaction DMG, allowing him to deal more DMG through Electro-charged. Additionally, when max refined (R5), the weapon’s effect significantly increases both Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG, two areas where Ororon shines. This makes The Stringless an excellent choice for players looking to enhance his off-field damage output and reaction potential.

5 Chain Breaker

• Primary Stat: 565 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 27.6% ATK
• R5 Effect: For every party member from Natlan or who has a different Elemental Type from the equipping character, the equipping character gains 9.6% increased ATK. When there are no less than 3 of the aforementioned characters, the equipping character gains 48 Elemental Mastery.

Chain Breaker is a solid F2P-friendly option for Ororon, as it is a forgeable weapon from Natlan. It benefits Ororon regardless of the team composition, thanks to its effect, which provides either an ATK or Elemental Mastery boost depending on the team setup. Additionally, it offers a high Base ATK and a decently high ATK% secondary stat, same as Alley Hunter, one of his best 4-star generalist options. While Chain Breaker may perform slightly worse than Alley Hunter in terms of raw DPS, its accessibility makes it a strong and practical F2P choice for many players.

4 Alley Hunter

• Primary Stat: 565 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 27.6% ATK
• R1 Effect: While the character equipped with this weapon is in the party but not on the field, their DMG increases by 2% every second up to a max of 20%. When the character is on the field for more than 4s, the aforementioned DMG buff decreases by 4% per second until it reaches 0%.

Alley Hunter is an excellent option for off-field bow users, and Ororon is no exception. Its effect boosts DMG directly, rather than focusing on specific stats like ATK or HP, making it a versatile choice. The only key aspect to keep in mind is that Ororon should not stay on the field for more than 4 seconds at a time to maintain the full DMG bonus. Fortunately, this aligns well with his playstyle, as he is quick to set up his off-field DMG. Players with higher refinements of this weapon, especially beyond R1, will gain substantial value from it; however, at lower refinements, it may fall behind most premium 5-star options.

3 Skyward Harp

• Primary Stat: 674 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 22.1% Crit Rate
• R1 Effect: Increases CRIT DMG by 20%. Hits have a 60% chance to inflict a small AoE attack, dealing 125% Physical ATK DMG. Can only occur once every 4s.

Skyward Harp is one of the most suitable 5-star options for Ororon, primarily functioning as a stat stick due to its high Base ATK, Crit Rate, and Crit DMG bonuses. While the secondary effect, which deals Physical DMG, isn’t particularly useful for him as an Electro-based sub-DPS, the overall stat boost makes it a strong choice. Additionally, as a standard pool weapon, many players might have obtained extra refinements over time, further increasing its value and making it a solid alternative to more niche or limited-time options.

2 Aqua Simulacra

• Primary Stat: 542 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 88.2% CRIT DMG
• R1 Effect: HP is increased by 16%. When there are opponents nearby, the DMG dealt by the wielder of this weapon is increased by 20%. This will take effect whether the character is on-field or not.

Aqua Simulacra, Yelan’s signature weapon, stands out as the best sub-DPS option for Ororon due to its exceptionally high Crit DMG secondary stat, which is beneficial for maximizing his off-field DMG potential. Beyond this, the passive effect further enhances Ororon’s DMG when enemies are nearby, making it a strong fit for his playstyle. Although the HP increase from the weapon’s effect isn’t directly beneficial for Ororon’s kit, it does offer a slight boost to his survivability, which can be a nice bonus. Overall, this weapon’s strong Crit DMG stat and passive DMG boost make it a top-tier choice for players focusing on Ororon’s sub-DPS role.

1 Elegy For The End

• Primary Stat: 608 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 55.1% Energy Recharge
• R1 Effect: Increases Elemental Mastery by 60. When the Elemental Skills or Elemental Bursts of the character wielding this weapon hit opponents, that character gains a Sigil of Remembrance. This effect can be triggered once every 0.2s and can be triggered even if said character is not on the field. When you possess 4 Sigils of Remembrance, all of them will be consumed and all nearby party members will obtain the “Millennial Movement: Farewell Song” effect for 12s. “Millennial Movement: Farewell Song” increases Elemental Mastery by 100 and increases ATK by 20%. Once this effect is triggered, you will not gain Sigils of Remembrance for 20s. Of the many effects of the “Millennial Movement,” buffs of the same type will not stack.

Elegy for the End is the best support-oriented bow option for Ororon due to its comprehensive effect. Its Energy Recharge secondary stat is particularly useful, similar to Favonius Warbow, allowing players to deprioritize Energy Recharge in Ororon’s artifact substats. Beyond this, Elegy provides valuable buffs to Elemental Mastery and ATK for all nearby party members, boosting team performance in reaction-heavy compositions. However, if Ororon is paired with characters who don’t scale with ATK, such as Neuvillette as the main carry, the ATK boost may be less impactful. On the other hand, pairing Ororon with characters like Chasca, who benefits more directly from ATK, will make this weapon’s effect highly valuable.
