Best Emilie Weapons
Lumidouce Elegy
(No change needed)
Lumidouce Elegy is the best polearm for Emilie in Genshin Impact.
Emilie’s most powerful weapon in Genshin Impact is undoubtedly this one. It grants a 15% ATK boost to the wielder and has the added ability to inflict Burning on enemies, as well as dealing Dendro damage to all Burning foes with an 18% DMG increase.
The wearer of this weapon can receive a boost of 12 Energy, which can still be activated even if they are not currently on the field. It works effectively with Emilie and complements her abilities.
Disaster Relief
Emilie can greatly benefit from this weapon as it boosts the wearer’s Elemental DMG by 12%. Moreover, it grants an increase of 3.2% to ATK, which can stack up to 6 times. When not in battle, the ATK bonus is doubled.
Best Emilie Artifacts
Unfinished Reverie works perfectly with Emilie in Genshin Impact.
The ideal Artifact set for Emilie in Genshin Impact is Unfinished Reverie. The set’s bonus is as follows:
| Set piece | Set Bonus |
|---|---|
| 2-pc | ATK+18% |
| 4-pc | After leaving combat for 3s, DMG dealt increases by 50%. In combat, if no Burning opponents are nearby for more than 6s, this DMG Bonus will decrease by 10% per second until it reaches 0%. When a Burning opponent exists, it will increase by 10% instead until it reaches 50%. This effect still triggers if the equipping character is off-field. |

Recommended Team Composition for Emilie
Burgeon team compositions are where Emilie truly excels. Therefore, the most suitable allies to join her are Arlecchino, Xiangling, and Bennett. Among them, Arlecchino takes on the role of primary damage dealer due to her incredibly high scaling and status as the top Pyro DPS in the game.
Emilie will provide the Dendro application for off-field use, Xiangling will offer her off-field damage, and Bennett will serve as the team’s healer.
You have the option to lead a team with Hu Tao or Diluc as the main DPS. In order to activate Emilie’s Rectification passive, a Pyro unit will be necessary.
