I Tried to Build DPS Layla With The NEW Event Weapon… [Genshin Impact]



Genshin Impact released a new 4-star weapon during a recent event. Since we don’t currently have a character that can really use the Calamity of Eshu well, I decided to create one myself. So I present to you Cryo DPS Layla.

For the team I used, it consisted of C2 Xilonen, Chongyun, and Shenhe. (Yes, I’m one of the 5 people who has a Shenhe). We used the Retracing Bolide set for Layla. We tried this build againt some bosses, as well as in the Spiral Abyss. I can’t say this build was anything crazy, but I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, and I think it’s still a fun team to run.

  1. if i hadn’t already decided this sword belongs to qiqi forever (she’s double crowned and it made her atk 2.9k instead of 2.1k, plus it looks amazing on her) i would absolutely try this. or i may even mess around more and do this with like. a burning kirara cause that sounds funny to me

    i do wish the refinement materials were got in events were just more copies of the weapons tho cause then i could keep characters on their weapons while also messing around

  2. You shall be happy I think. I gave it to Kirara with the bolide set, Furina with tenacity and radish girl wearing the deep wood set and Raiden with paradise. She hits each crit does 9k and my bolide isn't as good as his.

  3. Shenhe gives attack buffs to each cryo attacker on the team (includes anemo absorptions but not swirls), so if you want to play this team you're probably going to want to level Chongyun's multipliers (not the talents, but critical, EM if used, DMG bonus%, RES shred, character level, DEF shred).

  4. I really want to build layla as a dps since i got zhingli recently and i lowkey wanna put them together
    update i quit cause i cant build her and rolls def so much and em like freeze and swirl are the only cryo reactions

  5. This works because Shenhe works similar to aggravate/spread reactions: a flat damage buff that scales well with DMG bonus and crit formulas means that low modifiers do not matter, and the only important thing is fast enough hits (with aggravate. with Shenhe, faster hits don't do all that much and just use up quills faster)

  6. even tho she has no much bonuses in comparison to many many supports but I use her for my dps heizou who needs a lot of elemental application off-field and gosh layla is the prettiest off fielder ive ever had, no regrets for using her at all

  7. Anyone with a shielder on the team can use this new sword actually. Passive works as long as a character has a shield, not as long as a character has a shield that they created. So just put Layla with Millelith and Favonius in your team, give this sword to your main dps, and watch as numbers go up. And the same goes for Retracing bolide too

  8. I feel like having Yun Jin would be better to have over Chongyun for the attack speed bonus and because he Geo resonance would increase shield strength by 15% and a 15% damage increase. I’d still run Yun Jin on Nobless with a fav lance just to make sure energy is still met. Would be interesting to see the results from this compared to the team used in the video

  9. Optimal rotation for cooldowns & buffs:

    – Layla Burst
    – Xilonen Skill & N2
    – Chongyun Burst
    – Shenhe Skill
    – Shenhe Burst
    – Chongyun Skill
    – Layla Skill
    – DPS with Layla

    (You could also instead try Chongyun Burst right before using his skill if noblesse ends up being more beneficial for Layla than Shenhe)
