The Sacrificial weapon is one of the best weapons series inGenshin Impact. By far, there is a Sword, Claymore, Bow, and Catalyst version of it. All of them have an effect that can reset a character’s Elemental Skill cooldown if they damage an enemy. Most Sacrificial weapons have Energy Recharge as their secondary stat, with the Catalyst being the sole exception. The cooldown reset and Energy Recharge boost allow this series to be a popular choice for support characters.

The most favored wielders of Sacrificial weapons inGenshin Impactinclude Diona and Xingqiu. Other than that, here are some of the best characters that can wield them.
7Chongyun
Chongyun’s Elemental Burst and Skill are both equally important for his playstyle, and playing him as a Sub-DPS requires handling both talents equally.Other weapons may complement one of Chongyun’s talentsand raise his damage, butSacrificial Greatswordmaximizes his potential to become a dedicated Support since it buffs his Elemental Skill and gives him the Energy Recharge percentage he needs to cast his Burst constantly.
Chongyun with Sacrificial Greatsword offers his team a longer duration of hisChonghua Frost Fieldthat infuses the Melee attacks of Sword, Claymore, and Polearm users with Cryo, alongside increasing their Normal attacks speed by 8%. The Frost Field also reduces allies’ Skill and Burst cooldown by 15%, which is extremely handy for fast swapping teams.
6Xingqiu
Although there are many weapons that match Xingqiu’s abilities, none solve his only negative, which is his long Elemental Skill cooldown. Because of this,Sacrificial Swordcan perform even better than mostGenshin Impact5-Star weapons.
With Sacrificial Sword, Xingqiu can double skill and double the Energy he regenerates for his entire team, making him one ofthe best Battery inGenshin Impact. The weapon also massively increases his Energy Recharge Percentage, giving him more access to his crazy good Elemental Burst.
5Diona
Diona is one ofthe best Supports ofGenshin Impact. Her two downsides are the long cooldown on her Elemental Skill and the high Energy demand on her Burst. In the case of Diona, there are no weapons that work with her better than theSacrificial Bow.
Some Bows might be ok, like, Elegy for the End, Favonius Warbow, and Recurve Bow. But, Sacrificial Bow grants a solution for both her problems by allowing her to shield her teammates twice and have a little boost of Energy Recharge Percentage to keep her healing active.
4Sucrose
Sucrose canperfectly fulfill the role of Anemo Support inGenshin Impact. Surprisingly, unlike all other Sacrificial weapons,Sacrificial Fragmentspossess Elemental Mastery as a secondary stat instead of the Energy Recharge Percentage.

That is perfect for Sucrose since she highly relies on Elemental Mastery to buff her team’s reactions and boost her own Swirl damage. In addition to all that, Sucrose with Sacrificial Fragments can also cast her Elemental Skill one more time, allowing Sucrose to cast her Skill thrice in a row if her first Constellation is unlocked.
3Kazuha
Kazuha can be great with anything in his hand because of his ability to perform in many roles. As a Support, Sacrificial Sword immensely increases Kazuha’s ability to control enemies while generating double the amount of Energy he usually regenerates. The Sacrificial weapon will also allow Kazuha to cast his Elemental Burst,Kazuha Slash, more frequently.
Not only that but Sacrificial Sword will also increase Kazuha’s overall DPS thanks to the double Skill cast. However, note that using Sacrificial Sword means players won’t gain extra Elemental Mastery as they would from other weapons likeIron Sting. So while Sacrificial increases Kazuha’s personal damage,it may hurt theGenshin Impactteam’s overall DPS, especially if Kazuha can maintain his Burst uptime without an Energy Recharge weapon.
2Electro Traveler
Electro Traveler isone of the best Batteries inGenshin Impact. Their Elemental Skill produces up to threeAbundance Amuletsthat regenerate four Energy to the character that picks them up, other than the original Energy produced from the Skill itself. That can be massive, especially when considering all the utility this protagonist provides.

So it’s not surprising how important it is for the Traveler to hit their Skill one more time and keep their Burst active. All this allows the Sacrificial Sword to be a must-have weapon for the Electro Traveler. Alternatively, players can also equip the protagonist with the Favonius Sword.
1Venti
Venti can be an amazing addition to anyGenshin Impactteam composition he takes part in. His ability to CC, although it’s nerfed, can still do great against smaller enemies. Other than that, one of the best things he does is be an ideal Battery foranyGenshin Impactteam composition.
Adding Sacrificial Bow to the mix allows Venti to regenerate more Energy for himself and his team. With this weapon, the Anemo Archon no longer has to worry about generating enough Energy to maintain his Burst uptime. Even though the Sacrificial weapon is not the best Bow Venti can wield, it’s still a great addition to Venti’s Supportive kit. Other options for Venti include Elegy for the End, The Stringless, Windblume Ode, and Alley Hunter.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
