Genshin Impact: Charlotte’s Best Weapon Choices for Versatile Play

Discover the top catalyst weapons to make the most of Charlotte’s multi-role capabilities in Genshin Impact.

In Genshin Impact’s version 4.2 update, Charlotte emerges as a dynamic 4-star character, offering unique abilities, such as the ability to take in-game photographs during combat. Charlotte can serve multiple roles in a team, excelling as a sub-DPS through her Elemental Skill and a healer through her Elemental Burst. To maximize Charlotte’s potential, players may wonder which weapons are best suited for her. While the ideal weapon depends on her intended role, those that boost ATK or Energy Recharge are excellent for maintaining versatility. Here are the top catalyst weapon choices for Charlotte in Genshin Impact.

Honorable Mentions This guide prioritizes weapons that enhance Charlotte’s overall utility while retaining her versatility. For those focusing on using Charlotte as a support buffer, the Thrilling Tales Of Dragon Slayers is still a solid choice due to its ATK boost effect. If Charlotte is part of a team with characters like Wriothesley, this weapon can be valuable.

Players aiming to build Charlotte as a sub-DPS may consider Yae Miko’s signature weapon, Kagura’s Verity, for increased Crit DMG and enhanced Elemental Skill damage.

1. Skyward Atlas

• Primary Stat: 674 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 33.1% ATK
• R1 Effect: Increases Elemental DMG Bonus by 12%. Normal Attack hits have a 50% chance to earn the favor of the clouds, seeking out nearby opponents to deal 160% ATK DMG for 15s (once every 30s).
• Note: Skyward Atlas is the top choice for Charlotte, offering a significant ATK boost along with increased Elemental DMG Bonus. It’s a versatile option for sub-DPS and healing roles, as it doesn’t rely on shields to maximize its effect.

2. Memory of Dust

• Primary Stat: 608 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 49.6% ATK
• R1 Effect: Increases Shield Strength by 20%. Scoring hits on opponents increases ATK by 4% for 8s, max 5 stacks (once every 0.3s). While protected by a shield, this ATK increase effect is increased by 100%.
• Note: Ideal for boosting Charlotte’s ATK, Memory of Dust is best used with a shielder in the team, doubling its ATK increase through its effect. Combined with the Tenacity of the Millelith artifact set, it can provide added buffs for the entire team.

• Secondary Stat: 27.6% ATK

5. Flowing Purity

• Primary Stat: 565 Base ATK
• Secondary Stat: 27.6% ATK
• R5 Effect: When using an Elemental Skill, All Elemental DMG Bonus increases by 16% for 15s, and a Bond of Life worth 24% of Max HP is granted (once every 10s). Clearing the Bond Of Life provides up to 24% All Elemental DMG Bonus based on the HP cleared.
• Note: A forgeable weapon, Flowing Purity is an excellent F2P choice that increases Charlotte’s Elemental DMG Bonus and retains an ATK secondary stat.

Note: It’s essential to consider Charlotte’s role and playstyle when choosing the best weapon for her in Genshin Impact. The right weapon will enhance her performance in your specific team composition.
