Top 10 Best Weapons for Shenhe in Genshin Impact 3.5

Shenhe is going to get a rerun in phase 2 of the Genshin Impact 3.5 update. She is a powerful Cryo buffer, who is universally good for Cryo DPS units such as Ayaka or Ganyu. To increase Shenhe's effectiveness, players need to get the right weapon for her.

Usually, Shenhe should use a polearm with high base ATK to maximize her ATK stat, alongside the ATK% boost from her artifacts. She also wants ER, especially if her Artifacts' ER is not optimal.

In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase the top 10 best weapons for Shenhe in Genshin Impact 3.5.

1. Calamity Queller

The Calamity Queller is Shenhe's signature weapon and her best in slot. It has the highest base ATK out of all Polearms, and comes with a useful passive. The effect is twice as effective when Shenhe is off-field after using her Skill, which is perfect to complement her play style.

It is best to use the Calamity Queller with an ER Sands to meet higher ER requirements.

Gain 12% All Elemental DMG Bonus. Obtain Consummation for 20s after using an Elemental Skill, causing ATK to increase by 3.2% per second. This ATK increase has a maximum of 6 stacks. When the character equipped with this weapon is not on the field, Consummation's ATK increase is doubled.

2. Favonius Lance

The Favonius Lance is the best 4-star option for Shenhe and is sometimes better than the Calamity Queller (if players don't have enough ER). It has decent base ATK for a 4-star weapon, and can significantly lower her and her teammates' ER requirements, allowing players to focus more on offensive stats.

If you are running a Burst-reliant Cryo DPS like Ayaka or Eula, the Favonius Lance is probably the top choice as they need a lot of energy.

CRIT Hits have a 60% chance to generate a small amount of Elemental Particles, which will regenerate 6 Energy for the character. Can only occur once every 12s.
