What's the best Genshin Impact Eula build?

Genshin's Eula is an incredibly strong cryo DPS unit capable of dishing out high-impact physical damage with her claymore and high burst damage every rotation.

She takes some investment to reach her full potential, but her ideal build is fairly simple which makes her perfect for Genshin players of all levels. Her signature weapon, Song of Broken Pines, is her best in slot and a set of Pale Flame artifacts works wonders on her.

How to use Eula

Eula is a smashing DPS when you use her right. As with any battle, her kit relies on a mixture of player skill, luck, and the combat situation, and as she's more of a physical damage dealer than cryo, she can also be a weaker choice against specific enemies with elemental weaknesses and physical resistances. This can make Eula teams quite situational, but when used right, she's extremely powerful.

The best way to use Eula on field is to set off her elemental skill, and then her elemental reaction, and keep swinging until you get a huge damage number.

What are the best weapons for Eula?

The Song of Broken Pines is Eula's signature weapon and, unsurprisingly, remains her best-in-slot option. The Wolf's Gravestone is a strong second-place choice - it boosts her attack% and can out-damage Song of Broken Pines if you manage to proc its passive.

Skyward Pride is an interesting alternate, as Eula can make full use of its passive. However, you should only go with this one if you need the energy recharge it provides.

For four-star options, your best option is Serpent Spine. Its high crit rate and universal damage buff suit Eula wonderfully, but it's a highly contested weapon among other claymore wielders. If you've got nothing better, though, you can instead go with Prototype Archaic.

Here are the best weapons for Eula:

Song of Broken Pines (five-star) Bonus effect: Increases physical damage
Skill: Increases attack by 16%, when normal or charged attacks hit, Eula gains a Sigil of Whispers. This can be triggered once every 0.3 seconds. When you have four Sigils of Whispers, they will be consumed and all party members will obtain the Millennial Movement: Banner-Hymn effect for 12 seconds. Millennial Movement increases normal attack speed by 12% and attack damage by 20%. When triggered, you will not gain Sigils of Whispers for 20 seconds

Wolf's Gravestone (five-star) Bonus effect: Increases attack
Skill: Increases attack by 20%. Alongside this, attacks against enemies with less than 30% HP increase all party members' attack by 40% for 12 seconds. This can only occur once every 30 seconds
Standard and Chronicled Wish banner
Skyward Pride (five-star) Bonus effect: Increases energy recharge
Skill: Increases all damage by 8%. When an elemental burst, normal, or charged attack hits an enemy, a vacuum blade forms, dealing 80% of her attack as damage to all enemies in its path. This effect lasts for 20 seconds or eight vacuum blades
Standard and Chronicled Wish banner
Serpent Spine (four-star) Bonus effect: Increases crit rate
Skill: Every four seconds a character is on the field, they deal 6% more damage and take 3% more damage. This effect has a maximum of five stacks and does not reset if Eula leaves the field, but is reduced by one stack when she takes damage
Battle Pass reward
Prototype Archaic (four-star) Bonus effect: Increases attack
Skill: On hit, normal, or charged attacks have a 50% chance to deal an additional 240% attack damage to opponents within a small AoE. Can only occur once every 15 seconds
