Sayu is a small character inGenshin Impactthat works as a healer. However, unlike other child-like personas, the little Ninja has enough strength to wield a large Claymore. This is quite curious considering she spends her time sleeping and hiding from responsibilities. But it seems thatowning a Vision grants that much powerafter all.
Not only healing, but as Sayu is also an Anemo character, she can double as a debuffer in the team. If players equip the Ninja with the4-Viridescent Venerer artifacts, her Skill and Burst will continuously reduce the enemy’s Elemental Resistance as long as she triggers Swirl. Unfortunately, while all this seems good on paper, Sayu has a conflicting build before players own her C6. The Ninja’s Elemental Burst’s healing scales with ATK while her passive healing scales with Elemental Mastery. So before completing Sayu’s Constellations, people should opt for ATK or Energy Recharge weapons. Bur after C6, then Elemental Mastery build is the better go-to. When it comes toSayu’s best weapons inGenshin Impact, here are some great examples.

Best 5-Star Weapons For Sayu In Genshin Impact
Even as a healer support, a 5-Star Claymore still performs magnificently on Sayu. Skyward Pride and Wolf’s Gravestones are some great choices for the Ninja.
Skyward Pride
Skyward Pride is thebest weapon Sayu can wield inGenshin Impact. The high Base ATK alongside its Energy Recharge secondary stat allows Sayu to continuously use her Elemental Burst, providing as much healing as possible. Unfortunately, the Claymore’s passive is mostly useless on the Shuumatsuban Ninja.
Wolf’s Gravestone
Wolf’s Gravestone is one of thebest Claymores inGenshin Impact. The weapon is simple yet bears great power that benefits the whole team. Sayu with Wolf’s Gravestone will have another Supportive ability where she adds 40% ATK or her entire team.
Best 4-Star Weapons For Sayu In Genshin Impact
For the 4-Star Claymore, players have several choices. They can opt for Energy Recharge stat, Energy-generating talents, or plainly focus on Elemental Mastery.
Katsuragikiri Nagamasa
Katsuragikiri Nagamasa is an excellent weapon forSupports inGenshin Impact. At R5, the weapon fills 15 Energy for its wielder at the cost of 3. With this Claymore, Sayu will easily have her Burst ready.
Favonius Greatsword
Favonius weapons will always be a no-brainer choice for most Support characters. With the many Supportive abilities Sayu offers to her teammates, she might as well be theGenshin ImpactBatterytoo. However, note that Favonius' passive will only work on Critical Hits, so the Ninja will need a little Critical Rate.
Sacrificial Greatsword
While it’s not thebest weapon for Sayu, the Sacrificial Greatsword is still good enough to allow her to perform her Skill twice and generates double the particles she usually makes. In addition, Sacrificial Greatsword has a high Base ATK that can raise Sayu’s healing by a little.
Rainslasher
Rainslasherperfectly works onSayu with her sixths Constellations unlocked inGenshin Impact. The weapon’s passive, Elemental Mastery addition, and its decent Base ATK, all play a role in adding more damage and healing to Sayu’s abilities.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
