Note: the exact ER you need highly depends on teams/rotations/weapons, so i dont really like giving exact numbers, but ~160-200 is a good range. C2 good but depends on rotation (since it's hard to use both buffs of 6s each) Also, i reuploaded this vid ~20 mins after the initial upload to correct a mistake I had made regarding her burst. Sara's wings are cool.

@@shadowbot954 I built my sucrose as purely an em monster and as a main unit mostly on the field. I have her paired with Xinqui and Raiden for electro charged, and Beidou for a shiled and more elctro damage. I cleared the previous and most recent abyss until 12-3 with 3 stars from this team.

I think her c2 is worth the hype. The buff lasts for 6 seconds so you can buff your character once. She can hold the charged atk buff for 18 seconds, so you can buff the same character twice after the first 6 seconds ends, or buff a different character. She can even buff herself, do the charged shot, then the charged shot will do more aoe dmg and can buff a new active character

@@aienjell yeah I'm trying to be humble here, a lot of her kit could've been better, that energy recharge thing should be better, like 5 or 10 points of energy restoration, that first passive is too shit for a passive, it should've been already part of her E kit, the C6 should've work with every character not only with Electro ones, the E buff should be longer, at least go up with talents or had a constellations that makes it longer
@@Mat69420k Fuck, you're right. She should be allot better considering she's the general of the Shogun's army but maybe Mihoyo will come up with some way to milk more out of people by adding shit to the characters later down the line for a price.
Thank goodness for this guide. This is one of the first times I actually need a guide for a character. All the other times I watch your guides is just for entertainment lmao
I think the general idea behind C2 is not to skip out on using the charged shot, but rather to delay its usage so you can buff two separate characters (i.e. use Sara skill, swap out, use snapshot ability, swap back to Sara, charge shot, swap out to another character that can use the buff separately). This also gets you another activation of the C1 cooldown reduction and energy passive. In the case of C6 Sara this can also be used to "refresh" her crit dmg bonus on Beidou's ult. This gives you a total of 12 seconds of C6 buff, rather than the 6 you would otherwise have.
agree and ive been using her like this especially with her crowfeather's duration being pretty long, but too bad the buff is only for 6 seconds or else wouldve buffed the rest of team with at least her c2.
@@muhammaddayyaan8886 which is why he said you can use C2 to refresh it on snapshot ults like Beidou's @Milijango it is actually possible to keep C6 application indefinitely, since C2 gives it 12s uptime and E's cooldown is 10s, and there's also her Q. It does require a looot of micromanagement, though :P
@@eru_barth With all that swapping in and out of Sara you'll probably lose so many Beidou procs it defeats the purpose of the buff... it's a nice thought though
It's also important to note that she can apply her buff with her burst as well, which is why building her as a sub burst DPS may be optimal. With lv90 r5 stringless, my Sara deals 70k damage on the first hit (without any buffs aside from her own) which imo is ridiculous for the "Bennett" of the situation. I like her a lot.
C2 is very great on sara. You use the C2 crowfeather to your support to snapshot their burst and swap back to sara for her empowered charged shot and swap to your main dps for another atk buff.
@@sseoriii Her teleport is bugged and Mihoyo knows it. Comparing to proper teleports or taunts it should cover as much distance as Mona's or Ganyu's. Like out of 10 teleports one of them should work and withdraw her further than normal but you would need your active character to run back into the fray to pick up the buff (C2). Lost track how many surveys were submitted asking to fix it to work 100% of the time and comparison videos out there.
Any plans to revisit old characters that may have changed after new weapons/artifact sets releases? Maybe not as in detail as this but cover a few characters in a single video instead.
He said in one of the previous videos that he is preparing a New Xiangling Guide, since she got a huge Artifact and Weapon buff (Emblem Set and "The Catch")
I think those are just Xiangling, Xingqiu, and Beidou because the 4-pc Emblem set also works really good on them. Xiangling with The Catch; Beidou with the upcoming big fish claymore
Kequing’s skill buff with her electro infusion only lasts 5 seconds. With Sara’s 6 second buff, she can snapshot and make the most efficient use of this buff. It does come with the downside that you REALLY gotta micromanage your switching into Sara and Kequing just right.
I personally love her C2, since if you have it, you have 3 buffs ready to go! But her in a team with 3 other characters who's burst can snapshot and you can buff all 3 of them, one with her C2 teleport, another one with her charged shot and the last one with her burst!
Still long way to go until I start building her , coz I have to build Raiden first . Damn , looking for a good 4 piece-set artifact is pain in the neck. Specially when you only count on your daily resins.
if you farm for Emblem set for Raiden then Sara could benefit from it too. You could give Sara the less ideal artifacts and save the best ones for Raiden.
I suggest you do it after World Level 6 or even better World Level 7 or higher. Preferably I'll do the daily monsters and the primo Geovishap since the drops of Primo Geovishaps is one of the best compared to other bosses except for the weekly daily
Her c2 allows her to buff one of your supports with the E and then swap back to her at the end of your rotation to charge shot/ult to buff your DPS. Thats why its great.
Quick tip: Showcase your team synergies. You have most characters so why not show us the rotation. For example, the Raiden and Sara team. I was hoping to see the rotation in action but modCheck
There are other channels that do showcases. This is a guide, and its not hard to know how to use a Sara rotation so you really dont need to ask for one. When the crowfeather explodes, make sure the active character you want buffed is out. Thats it.
I like her aesthetics and overall design of her kit, but the duration of atk buff is kinda underwhelming and can be helpful only in snapshot cases, unfortunately. Yes, you can bypass this limitation by stacking her skill, but it's not very convenient to do especially in some quickswap comps with a lot of temporary buffs
I don't know if this was said in the video or if someone else said it, but if you're playing co-op, Stormcall will affect everyone who is in the bubble. I initially had no idea if it would work so I tested it out myself.
What i understand here is "Sara's buff" is Good for Elmntl Burst drop characters and a bit bad for characters that do DPS Because it only last 6s. And As a player who have bad luck getting a pyro character and got all electro Character. That C6 of her is really good for me.
I have Ei at c2 and wanted to figure out a way to slide Sara in well on Ei’s current team. So I appreciate this guide a lot thank you! Got Sara at c6 today, so I’ll have a lot of fun with her. I love bow characters
Her buff also stack with Bennett so with her and Benny boy on the team you can go for full emblem set for your burst damagers and substitute the attack sand to ER since you already get ALOT of attack from both of them, and spam burst and go ham on everything
I think the main benefit from her c2 and why it's valuable is because you can cast E drop the first buff switch out and then switch back to Sara after the buff ends and used the charged shot so you can apply the buff twice per E cast I'm pretty sure you can have her E buff at all times if you cycle it properly.
The time it takes to swap to her, make a crow feather and swap back would negate any team dps gain I think, without it being used for snapshot burst or raiden... that would've been 4-6 hits on your main dps. The atk buff is only 400 or so depending, vs 1k+ that bennett gives.
Sara really feels like someone who is made to be alright for everyone but only shines truly at C6 with Raiden Shogun as a Brust DPS. I was lucky enough to get Sara at C6 while getting both Baal and her 5* wep and i simply can't separe them. They feel like one char together.
@@user-pc7ym1we5q Yup, that's the team I'm rocking, just need better artifacts for raiden currently at 50/160 crit ratio but atk is 1800... Sara is not built yet but my max damage is 260K at the moment. Got my Sara to c6 btw :)
Personally I think there's 5 main reasons to use Sara 1: buffer for 2nd abyss team 2: burst damage quick swap team 3: raiden support because 80 burst 4:waifus are very very important 5: Five
I love Sara’s design (as I do for most characters) and I’d really love to be able to use her but I can’t justify building her over the many other better characters I have yet to build 😭 Btw, continue the great work Mr Zy0x! This guide and your Raiden guide cleared up so much of my confusion about their kits.
This is easily the worst part about Genshin. You get all these cool characters but you can’t really build and use all of them because it takes WAAAAAAY too long to get a character up to speed. You gotta farm the level up ascension materials, exp books, talent lvl up books, weapon ascension materials, weapon exp crystals, various misc monster materials, and vast amounts of mora and don’t forget the worst of all, artifact farming.
When you have Bennett C5 with Level 13 talent, using Kujou Sara for atk buff is an absolute mess of rotation. I probably would kill movs faster without Kujou Sara taking field time too much.
@@megamind.d5349 Most who have been playing for a long time would have him, but many still don't especially new players and f2p. They could wait for a Bennett feature tho, but I think she's still a viable buffer for any team.
@@vivacious9530 hope you get him dude. In the previous banner I did like 70 pulls for Sayu but didn't get her but got a Yoimiya instead, so sometimes it's even hard to get the 4* than the 5* on their own banner.
Good video, but C2 on Sara actually means more uptime for the buff or buff for two separate characters cause E charge shot actually will work even after you use skill, switch character and rotate back to sara, that means you can buff to separate character and their ult especially it will be good for snapshot ones, still its tricky to use but worth mentioning... Oh yeah I am late, everybody already commented about it (I will stil leave comment, helps with youtube alghoritm)
In regards to Sara's Constellation 2, it is actually really good because you can give the buff TWICE with one skill usage. Cast her skill, switch to another character - maybe someone with a big burst - and then switch back to her and do a charged shot to either extend the buff or give it to another character. My current team has Sara using her skill to buff Xinqiao, who uses his Burst, then I have Sara use her charged shot and switch to my DPS.
kdggksgl thank you for this guide i was really confused about her but really wanted to build her because of her cool character design so now it’s all cleared up thank you so much!!
I was trying to get my fourth constellation for sucrose, and ended up getting 3 for sara, so now I'm trying to learn how to play her xd thanks for making this vid!
I really love the idea of Sara. I wanted her to be an Electro Bennett. By that I mean she's BiS as an offensive support for Electro Units. It's a way of 'nerfing' Bennet without actually nerfing him. Wouldn't mind seeing more element specific support units like this that excel in their correct element teams. The lack of snapshotting in general with Baal and Sara though makes me sadge.
I'm torn. I *should* use my Skyward Harp since it has the highest Base ATK, but I *want* to use Thundering Pulse because it just fits her aesthetically so much better.
I'm in a sad situation where I have Sara C0, would love to have her C2, but I already have Baal C0, and both the other 2 four star characters at C6. Trying to pull 2 more Sara feels very risky and likely a waste of primogens... I think I will wait for some leaks on the upcoming banner before deciding what to do.
I got C2 Sara and C5 Rosaria both from the same banner when I failed to pull Raiden Shougun (initially) and they ended up carrying me well into the late game. And even though I also have a broken nahida hyperbloom team by now, I still build team comps around the two of them, just because I like how they play together.
C2 is great for double snapshotting. Sara Elemental Skill > Switch to snapshot character > Snapshot Skill/Burst > Switch to Sara and charged shot (And with Ascension 1 it’s a really quick switch) > Switch to other snapshot character > Snapshot Skill/Burst. This rotation is INSANELY FUN.

I really find it difficult to implement the Charge Shot in my rotations so I completely gave up on it, its so small anyway compared to the effort of trying to build 300% ER just to get more energy. I just targeted enough ER to Ult out of Cooldown (its just 140 ER or somethign for a Raiden team) and targetted ATK% Crit next
I think it should be mentioned that C2 on Sara allows her "mini" crow feather to buff her personal attack allowing the follow up charge shot to do bonus damage while swapping characters
the team i used to do 100k was Raiden, Sara, Bennet and Sucrose. it basically works like this (We are fighting the cryo regisvine) hit its pimple twice with Bennet's skill then do his burst, which will stun it. Switch to Sara and do her burst and immediately switch to Raiden and do her skill. After that switch to sucrose and skill (if you have C1, you can do her skill twice) to reduce electro resistance (have R5 thrilling tales of dragon slayers on sucrose) and switch to Raiden to get the 48% ATK from sucrose weapon. Now you have -ATK from Bennet -ATK from Sara -Regisvine's electro res decreased -48% ATK from thrilling tales of dragon slayers DO YOUR BURST WITH RAIDEN AND ENJOY BIG NUMBERS!
Sara's short buff duration is mitigated by the fact that it's not just from her burst unlike Bennett. both her skill and burst can give this buff so the uptime is longer and more consistent so that is y the buff is smaller even though she's of an inferior element. with Sara every other burst rotation u get full uptime with how the durations and cooldowns work if u play it correctly. if u do it with both, skill then burst, the total duration is 12 seconds while the skill's cooldown is only 10 seconds so full uptime but only when the burst is available but the burst is 20 CD so that's y i said every other rotation it has full uptime. even on the other rotations it's still only 8 seconds averaging out 2 b 4 seconds downtime within 2 rotations. even without snapshotting it's fine but snapshots r nice and will help in every other rotation or if u aren't as good at timing it. 4 teams she can b a fantastic support 4 Hu Tao who may find Bennett's healing excessive so gaining an attack buff that doesn't mess with her low hp depended buffs is great even if overload is meh and u can just use a different healer if u want that heals more gradually
I do feel sorry for Sara that not only is she an electro bow, meaning she'll constantly be compared to Fischl, who does more damage and generates more particles, but also compared to Bennet, who buffs for longer and heals at the same time.
Hey I saw your Chongyun with Shimenawa's set. Was actually thinking about that if its viable for the national team since you kinda want to apply cryo/freeze to enemies for xiangling so Chongyun can be a "sub dps" for that team

you really shouldnt be wasting all your money like that on a gatcha game gambling. Take care of yourself your bills any other epenses and put some away for emergency, then if you have leftovers use on games. Gambling away everything you have leads downa very dangerous path.
She is just WAY too complicated. They need to just remove the "Charge Shot" aspect of her kit. Make it so that her E just automatically grants the ATK buff, automatically does the explosion at her location, and automatically generates particles when it does so, but you _can_ Charge attack if you feel like it.
i came back here after getting elegy trying to get homa... I know it's bad to pull on weapon banner as f2p I failed to get homa, but i already anticipated this outcome If you get elegy, your diona can become a stronger buffer (NO arti set), or your sara can actually gain relevance in the abyss with how the elegy offers so much for Sara's kit I also pulled on engulfing banner, with the reason that if your shogun gets engulfing, xiangling can use the catch (i actually got engulfing in 10 pull) If you get unforged, my beidou might see some use in the abyss because she has C1 which enables shield, proccing the unforged's passive. But anyway, my elegy won't go to waste UNLIKE LOST PRAYERS OF WIND I GOT FROM STANDARD BANNER, I could've PUT that catalyst on my kokomi if she CAN ACTUALLY CRIT
At C6 she almost makes Keqing feel like a meta character.. Just wish her buff lasted longer cause she'd be way better if lasted at least like 8-9 secs or something..
Watch all the newest 2024 for sara build…this one probably the easiest to understand with better explanation. Before 5.2 it was raiden shogun banner and i lose 50/50 to dilluc. So now here i am with C5 kujou sara and C4 cheveruse. Love the vid mate. Thanks a bunch

Yes, you can bypass this limitation by stacking her skill, but it's not very convenient to do especially in some quickswap comps with a lot of temporary buffs
I don't know if this was said in the video or if someone else said it, but if you're playing co-op, Stormcall will affect everyone who is in the bubble. I initially had no idea if it would work so I tested it out myself.
What i understand here is "Sara's buff" is Good for Elmntl Burst drop characters and a bit bad for characters that do DPS Because it only last 6s.
And As a player who have bad luck getting a pyro character and got all electro Character. That C6 of her is really good for me.
This guy will make a good professor, explaining complex topics in simple terms 🙌
I have Ei at c2 and wanted to figure out a way to slide Sara in well on Ei’s current team. So I appreciate this guide a lot thank you! Got Sara at c6 today, so I’ll have a lot of fun with her. I love bow characters
*E will teleport you backward, retreat in second*, mine stay the same 80% of the time
this is fine :)
Yeah it's super inconsistent! Can't rely on it dodge n stuff :/
Afaik it will stay in place if you hold forward button at the same time.. not really sure tho havent test it yet.
Nice pfp
Thanks for the guide! Your insight on the newest characters is definitely appreciated
Her buff also stack with Bennett so with her and Benny boy on the team you can go for full emblem set for your burst damagers and substitute the attack sand to ER since you already get ALOT of attack from both of them, and spam burst and go ham on everything
I think the main benefit from her c2 and why it's valuable is because you can cast E drop the first buff switch out and then switch back to Sara after the buff ends and used the charged shot so you can apply the buff twice per E cast I'm pretty sure you can have her E buff at all times if you cycle it properly.
The time it takes to swap to her, make a crow feather and swap back would negate any team dps gain I think, without it being used for snapshot burst or raiden... that would've been 4-6 hits on your main dps. The atk buff is only 400 or so depending, vs 1k+ that bennett gives.
1:37 those remaining XP books... the pain of all these new characters.
Kujou Sara's quick-swap playstyle is a nice way for me to play around and adapt with quick-swap comps. Great video!
Definitely one of the best explanations for Sara and best guide creators out there. Kudos man!
thank you zy0x for posting the best genshin guides :)
Sara really feels like someone who is made to be alright for everyone but only shines truly at C6 with Raiden Shogun as a Brust DPS.
I was lucky enough to get Sara at C6 while getting both Baal and her 5* wep and i simply can't separe them. They feel like one char together.
jeez, how much money have you spent ?
What is your team comp? I also got sara C6 while getting Raiden C2
@@user-pc7ym1we5q just got c2 raiden and my sara is c5, hope I get her c6. You got any team recommendations?
@@gamingkidYThypercarry Raiden,Sara,Bennet and anemo(kazuha or sucrose) is a good team.
It depends on what other charachters you have
@@user-pc7ym1we5q Yup, that's the team I'm rocking, just need better artifacts for raiden currently at 50/160 crit ratio but atk is 1800... Sara is not built yet but my max damage is 260K at the moment. Got my Sara to c6 btw :)
Personally I think there's 5 main reasons to use Sara
1: buffer for 2nd abyss team
2: burst damage quick swap team
3: raiden support because 80 burst
4:waifus are very very important
5: Five
only true sara simps will know the reason behind #5
Five
oh I heard sara has like 5 baal figurines I want one
I love Sara’s design (as I do for most characters) and I’d really love to be able to use her but I can’t justify building her over the many other better characters I have yet to build 😭
Btw, continue the great work Mr Zy0x! This guide and your Raiden guide cleared up so much of my confusion about their kits.
This is easily the worst part about Genshin. You get all these cool characters but you can’t really build and use all of them because it takes WAAAAAAY too long to get a character up to speed. You gotta farm the level up ascension materials, exp books, talent lvl up books, weapon ascension materials, weapon exp crystals, various misc monster materials, and vast amounts of mora and don’t forget the worst of all, artifact farming.
Waifus>Meta
@@naivet the other characters I wanna build are waifus lmao
@@ryanli6321 -especially venti :troll:-
same omg 😭 especially as a bit of a newer player I still want to completely max out my current teams to actually 12 star abyss
When you have Bennett C5 with Level 13 talent, using Kujou Sara for atk buff is an absolute mess of rotation. I probably would kill movs faster without Kujou Sara taking field time too much.
but many people don't have C5 Bennett... or a Bennett at all...
I'm a fan tho, please assassinate me in my sleep.
@@ryuu7342 Bennett has been in the game from the start, almost a year now. I assume most people have him than Sara.
@@megamind.d5349 Most who have been playing for a long time would have him, but many still don't especially new players and f2p. They could wait for a Bennett feature tho, but I think she's still a viable buffer for any team.
@@megamind.d5349 not me, ar 54 i have all the 4 stars except bennett :(
@@vivacious9530 hope you get him dude. In the previous banner I did like 70 pulls for Sayu but didn't get her but got a Yoimiya instead, so sometimes it's even hard to get the 4* than the 5* on their own banner.
2021 Zy0x sounds so depressed
And that's even before the Vermillion
Truly a moment before Chaotic Zy0x
When your using Sara on low-ping and you can't quickswap anymore
you are my favorite youtuber when it comes to genshin impact and i just needed to let you know that OK ty for your efforts my guy
Good video, but C2 on Sara actually means more uptime for the buff or buff for two separate characters cause E charge shot actually will work even after you use skill, switch character and rotate back to sara, that means you can buff to separate character and their ult especially it will be good for snapshot ones, still its tricky to use but worth mentioning...
Oh yeah I am late, everybody already commented about it (I will stil leave comment, helps with youtube alghoritm)
In regards to Sara's Constellation 2, it is actually really good because you can give the buff TWICE with one skill usage. Cast her skill, switch to another character - maybe someone with a big burst - and then switch back to her and do a charged shot to either extend the buff or give it to another character. My current team has Sara using her skill to buff Xinqiao, who uses his Burst, then I have Sara use her charged shot and switch to my DPS.
I like how you break it down easy for new players/noobs to understand and the time stamps
That's what they call a DOUBLE UPLOAD
I was so excited to get her but now that I did, she's benched at lvl 1 😭 I'm sorry, Sara. I have too many characters and I'm so lazy to farm
SAMEE I got her last night but I could only level her up at 14
Thank you so much for this.
Thanks for this! Your guides are the very few I trust nowadays.
kdggksgl thank you for this guide i was really confused about her but really wanted to build her because of her cool character design so now it’s all cleared up thank you so much!!
you’re the only person i watch for guides, always amazing and useful so thank you 💙
I also just realized that we need an Electro character that can heal the party as part of their kit..
Hopefully soon...
yae probably
We also need pyro healer (like, literally. I fucking need it)
@@zhonixx isn’t bennett a pyro healer? (although he only heals 70%)
@@xxtanpai but only with his ult
I was trying to get my fourth constellation for sucrose, and ended up getting 3 for sara, so now I'm trying to learn how to play her xd thanks for making this vid!
Sara is meant for doing combos that requires constant switching of characters
Ironic though since there is character cooldowns that ruins that style.
i just got her on the standard banner and i was so confused on her skill - thank you
I really love the idea of Sara. I wanted her to be an Electro Bennett. By that I mean she's BiS as an offensive support for Electro Units. It's a way of 'nerfing' Bennet without actually nerfing him.
Wouldn't mind seeing more element specific support units like this that excel in their correct element teams.
The lack of snapshotting in general with Baal and Sara though makes me sadge.
sara is like that specific buffer in fgo like skadi or castoria while bennett just like waver except way buffed up and come with healing too
she got some HUGE burst ratio....
Thank you Zy0x I literally got her just now!
Time to pair her with Raiden
I'm torn. I *should* use my Skyward Harp since it has the highest Base ATK, but I *want* to use Thundering Pulse because it just fits her aesthetically so much better.
Meta is temporary, style is eternal
-a commenter from Zhongli's trailer
fashion impact ftw
Go for aesthetic and switch to Harp if you have a hard time and need more damage
Definitely fashion over stats. Yeah you kill things a few seconds slower, but you'll look great.
Unexpected replies for a channel like Zy0x's because he min maxes like everything, but I love you all lol. Aesthetics >>>
I'm in a sad situation where I have Sara C0, would love to have her C2, but I already have Baal C0, and both the other 2 four star characters at C6. Trying to pull 2 more Sara feels very risky and likely a waste of primogens... I think I will wait for some leaks on the upcoming banner before deciding what to do.
I got C2 Sara and C5 Rosaria both from the same banner when I failed to pull Raiden Shougun (initially) and they ended up carrying me well into the late game. And even though I also have a broken nahida hyperbloom team by now, I still build team comps around the two of them, just because I like how they play together.
I just got her today and came here
C2 is great for double snapshotting.
Sara Elemental Skill > Switch to snapshot character > Snapshot Skill/Burst > Switch to Sara and charged shot (And with Ascension 1 it’s a really quick switch) > Switch to other snapshot character > Snapshot Skill/Burst.
This rotation is INSANELY FUN.
🌸🌺It I suppose is always a good ideal to enrich the noggin upon the waters of knowledge and quench the thirst known as curiosity to better the mind🌺🌸
Honestly do you just refresh TH-cam hunting down the newest genshin videos and comment on them? You are in every comment section I read lol
Seriously dude... Don’t you have something better to do than leaving unusual comments on all those TH-cam videos? Go for a walk, take a breath of fresh air.
@@Dude-xx7vo 🌸😌It is to be asked “dude” (pun intended) do you ever grow tired of such generic and uninspired insult and could you have thought of more imaginative slight of tongue?
It is to be uttered that should you be so fickle-minded and weak of heart that the utterances of a random stranger over the web perturbs you so, it perhaps is in your best interest to divorce the web and tend to your own life.
I do wish you a wonderful day😌🌸
@@elknolasshrineofraja3966 lol that was brutal
@@elknolasshrineofraja3966 My comment was a indeed a light jab towards you, but it also contained a hint of concern. I don’t know why you do what you do, perhaps it’s for attention; which would be my best guess anyways.
It also seems like you have a few alternate accounts that you use to like your own comments and to reply with “that was brutal”. Yes, it’s definitely not the first time I see that exact comment that is written much too soon after your own replies.
Anyways bro, I know I’m definitely a toxic and aggressive guy, but please do seek help if you need it.
Thank you for wishing me a wonderful day, even though I don’t deserve it, and I hope you have a great day/night as well.
Been waiting for this. Thank you so much!
I really find it difficult to implement the Charge Shot in my rotations so I completely gave up on it, its so small anyway compared to the effort of trying to build 300% ER just to get more energy. I just targeted enough ER to Ult out of Cooldown (its just 140 ER or somethign for a Raiden team) and targetted ATK% Crit next
I think it should be mentioned that C2 on Sara allows her "mini" crow feather to buff her personal attack allowing the follow up charge shot to do bonus damage while swapping characters
You sound a lot more calm… I wonder why
Calmge
the team i used to do 100k was
Raiden, Sara, Bennet and Sucrose. it basically works like this
(We are fighting the cryo regisvine) hit its pimple twice with Bennet's skill then do his burst, which will stun it. Switch to Sara and do her burst and immediately switch to Raiden and do her skill. After that switch to sucrose and skill (if you have C1, you can do her skill twice) to reduce electro resistance (have R5 thrilling tales of dragon slayers on sucrose) and switch to Raiden to get the 48% ATK from sucrose weapon. Now you have
-ATK from Bennet
-ATK from Sara
-Regisvine's electro res decreased
-48% ATK from thrilling tales of dragon slayers
DO YOUR BURST WITH RAIDEN AND ENJOY BIG NUMBERS!
Sara's short buff duration is mitigated by the fact that it's not just from her burst unlike Bennett. both her skill and burst can give this buff so the uptime is longer and more consistent so that is y the buff is smaller even though she's of an inferior element. with Sara every other burst rotation u get full uptime with how the durations and cooldowns work if u play it correctly. if u do it with both, skill then burst, the total duration is 12 seconds while the skill's cooldown is only 10 seconds so full uptime but only when the burst is available but the burst is 20 CD so that's y i said every other rotation it has full uptime. even on the other rotations it's still only 8 seconds averaging out 2 b 4 seconds downtime within 2 rotations. even without snapshotting it's fine but snapshots r nice and will help in every other rotation or if u aren't as good at timing it. 4 teams she can b a fantastic support 4 Hu Tao who may find Bennett's healing excessive so gaining an attack buff that doesn't mess with her low hp depended buffs is great even if overload is meh and u can just use a different healer if u want that heals more gradually
I do feel sorry for Sara that not only is she an electro bow, meaning she'll constantly be compared to Fischl, who does more damage and generates more particles, but also compared to Bennet, who buffs for longer and heals at the same time.
I like her a lot but I got so many characters ahead of her in terms of leveling and farming for.
zy0x carrying my genshin builds since the beginning. jus here to say thanks
Hey I saw your Chongyun with Shimenawa's set. Was actually thinking about that if its viable for the national team since you kinda want to apply cryo/freeze to enemies for xiangling so Chongyun can be a "sub dps" for that team
You are a gem in this community.
We should have seen these long ass descriptions coming when Elegy for the End debuted
cant wait for the thoma guide that will come
When you get sara at AR 12 🏃
(and note i got it from my alt)
*THE FACT THAT I CANT ASCEND HER SINCE I DONT HAVE THE FLOWER-*
Thank you for explaining. I was still confused to this day about her.
Can we have an updated Xiangling build if you dont mind? THANKS!
ye it's what i'm working on but im trying to get the Catch R5 LOL it's taking so long
@@Zy0x is it with the emblem of severed fate? Cuz im still struggling to pick he right sands for her.. my weapon is the catch (still grinding for r5)

I was trying for the 2nd constellation for Shogun, spent my last $100 and I got a 5 star! I was so excited and it was QIQI😭 My last dollars, really?! I'm sooooo pissed off!
you really shouldnt be wasting all your money like that on a gatcha game gambling. Take care of yourself your bills any other epenses and put some away for emergency, then if you have leftovers use on games. Gambling away everything you have leads downa very dangerous path.
@@SombreroGato 🤣🤣🤣 literally not my last dollars! My last bit of money I was able to spend on my games🤣🤣
ill make main dps sara . i just cant ignore how good her design. i luv her
She is just WAY too complicated. They need to just remove the "Charge Shot" aspect of her kit. Make it so that her E just automatically grants the ATK buff, automatically does the explosion at her location, and automatically generates particles when it does so, but you _can_ Charge attack if you feel like it.
I just got her on standard and....well. What a coincidence with Ayato's 3.3 banner coming. Wouldn't mind her and Sayu constellations.
Everyone explaining how to use x character: *Math and Rocket Science Lesson*
Me with x character: Time to hit things.
In some months, Sara will be a must have and level up
4 months have passed.
She's kinda less used
Would snapshot also work with Razor? His ult is kinda similar to Beidou's. Would he also keep the buff for the entire duration of his burst?
i came back here after getting elegy trying to get homa...
I know it's bad to pull on weapon banner as f2p
I failed to get homa, but i already anticipated this outcome
If you get elegy, your diona can become a stronger buffer (NO arti set), or your sara can actually gain relevance in the abyss with how the elegy offers so much for Sara's kit
I also pulled on engulfing banner, with the reason that if your shogun gets engulfing, xiangling can use the catch (i actually got engulfing in 10 pull)
If you get unforged, my beidou might see some use in the abyss because she has C1 which enables shield, proccing the unforged's passive.
But anyway, my elegy won't go to waste UNLIKE LOST PRAYERS OF WIND I GOT FROM STANDARD BANNER, I could've PUT that catalyst on my kokomi if she CAN ACTUALLY CRIT
At C6 she almost makes Keqing feel like a meta character.. Just wish her buff lasted longer cause she'd be way better if lasted at least like 8-9 secs or something..
I come back from C1 to C6 Sara and hope Zy0x update Sara guide.
deja vu
I just been in this place before
I was waiting so long for you to make this video
Electro Bennett lol
Watch all the newest 2024 for sara build…this one probably the easiest to understand with better explanation.
Before 5.2 it was raiden shogun banner and i lose 50/50 to dilluc. So now here i am with C5 kujou sara and C4 cheveruse.
Love the vid mate. Thanks a bunch
The meta change. The video feel so outdated. C6 is better than how this video put it.
no shit einstein, the video is 2 years old
I'm wanting to build my Sara for the upcoming Raiden banner. I have her at c5 but will hopefully c6 soon. She is such a cool character but I always put off building her because I didn't understand her skills that well. This video def helps!
