Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact

When version 1.2 goes live, players of Genshin impact were able to discover the enigmatic Albedo, chief alchemist of the Order of Favonius who was also the only new character in this update, while waiting for Ganyu. Here are its characteristics and various skills.



Summary

Introducing Albedo

  • Scarcity : โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…
  • Element : Geo (Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact)
  • Poor : One-handed sword
  • Voiced : Kenji Nojima
  • Birthday : September 13

Official Description โ€œAn alchemist living in Mondstadt, working in the service of the Order of Favonius. "Genius", "Kreideprinz", "Chief Investigator"... Titles and praise are of little importance to him: in his eyes, only his research counts. Albedo has nothing to do with the accumulation of wealth and social relations. His sole purpose is the pursuit of knowledge, and the understanding of the most obscure and profound knowledge left by generations of scholars before him. ยป

How to play Albedo

Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact



Like Zhongli, Albedo is primarily a supporting character. His Solar Aura skill allows you to generate many shields, while causing large area damage. The lift flower can sometimes be disconcerting when inadvertently stepped on, but when used properly, it allows ranged fighters to gain height and attack safely.

This is particularly effective for archers, and especially Ningguang, since the Geo resonance between the two characters will allow the energy to be regenerated very quickly. Albedo is therefore also an excellent support for Zhongli, insofar as his Solar Aura works in resonance with the Dominus Lapidis. You will understand, if you want to create a Geo team, Albedo will necessarily be your man.

With whom to play Albedo?

Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact

It remains just as effective on any team, but provided you boost its defense well with artifacts and use it as support only (nothing prevents you from using it as a DPS, it is simply less useful in this role than others). One of the best teams with Albedo also consists of Zhongli, Xiao and Jean. Here is a list of characters to play Albedo with:

  • Zhongli
  • Jean
  • Xiao
  • Noelle
  • ningguang
  • gorou
  • Itto

Best gear for Albedo

Which weapon for Albedo?

Again, it depends on what role you want Albedo in your team. We advise you not to use it as a primary DPS (like Zhongli, even if this will probably change with the latter's buff), but rather as a support or secondary DPS.



  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact Festering Fang (4โ˜…) : A free weapon obtained in the Chalk and Dragon event that works very well with Albedo, as it increases the damage of his elemental skills (and therefore ideal for a support Albedo).
  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact Azure Vault Blade (5โ˜…) : Increases Albedo's elemental damage and energy recharge.
  • Dawn Messenger (3โ˜…): It offers a big bonus to critical damage, but we recommend above all to use the Festering Fang for a better balance.
  • Cinnabar Spindle (4โ˜…) : A free weapon offered during the "Shadows in the Heart of the Blizzard" event, which is based on defense and therefore perfect for Albedo.

Best Albedo set

Again, it will be necessary to rely on elemental damage to get the best out of Albedo.


  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact ancient rock : If you want to optimize the Geo damage of Albedo, it is towards this set that you should go first.
  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact ancient royal ritual : Probably the best choice to maximize Albedo's elemental damage.
  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact Inverted meteor : Another possible choice if you want to maximize your shields by chaining Crystallizations.
  • Guardian Heart : Not necessarily the most effective compared to the other three, but it allows you to drastically increase Albedo's defense, and therefore his damage when activating his skills.

Which main stats to prioritize over accessories?

  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact hourglass : DEF%
  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact Cut : Geo Damage
  • Albedo โ€“ Genshin Impact Headdress/Crown : Critical Rate > Critical Damage > DEF%

Which sub-stats first for Albedo?

  1. critical rate
  2. DEF%
  3. Energy Recharge
  4. Critical damage
