Shenhe is a Cryo Support inGenshin Impact. She provides an extra Cryo DMG buff for her team that scales with her ATK. This guide will go through thebest builds for Shenhe inGenshin Impact, including her best artifact sets and weapons.
Shenhe Best Artifact In Genshin Impact
When building Shenhe inGenshin Impact, go for theNoblesse Obligeset as it further improves her ability to buff her team. Although Shenhe’s buff scales with her ATK, you would get better value off her buff if she uses the Noblesse Oblige set. You can still use two-piece sets, likeShimenawa’s ReminiscenceandGladiator’s Finale, to increase her ATK%, but it’s not as ideal as Noblesse Oblige.
Since the Noblesse Oblige’s ATK% buff triggers whenShenhe casts her Elemental Burst, it’s important to build Shenhe with enough Energy Recharge. This will allow her to cast her Elemental burst on every rotation and trigger the ATK% buff for her team. If she has enough Energy Recharge and can Ult every rotation, then focus on her ATK%.

Shenhe Best Weapon In Genshin Impact
Calamity Quelleris the Best-in-Slot weapon for Shenhe inGenshin Impact. It has a huge base ATK, a Sub-stat that further increases her ATK%, and a passive that also increases her ATK% even more. On the other hand,Engulfing Lightningmay not be designed for Shenhe, but it’s a great choice for her. It offers an Energy Recharge sub-stat, which allows her to easily regain her Elemental Burst, and has a passive that enhances her ATK% based on her Energy Recharge. Like Calamity Queller, both 5-starPolearms are one of the best weaponsfor Shenhe, and are amazing for many Sub-DPS characters, so pulling for them won’t be a waste at all.
you’re able to also go for 4-star options likeTamayuratei no OhanashiorLithic Spear.Tamayuratei no Ohanashi adds Energy Rechargeto Shenhe’s stats while buffing her ATK% from its passive. Lithic Spear just keeps adding more and more ATK%, as long as you add more characters from Liyue.

The rest of the weapons for Shenhe are not comparable to the previous ones, but they still either give ATK% or Energy Recharge, which aretwo stats that she needsfor her Elemental Burst and Cryo buff.
