What are the best Fischl builds?

Fischl is a Ranged DPS, with an Elemental Skill that can help to trigger reactions and boost your teammates, and an Elemental Burst that can be used both as an AoE attack and also as an escape maneuver in combat, helping a lot to position yourself on the battlefield. With great mobility and superb Attack Speed, you can keep your distance from the group of enemies without losing damage output at all.

Below are two of the best Fischl builds right now. You can keep reading to find out the hows and whys of these particular Fischl builds, but if you've used her before, you'll quickly understand the thought process behind his best weapon and artifact choices.

Physical DPS Build

Pale Flame (2 Pieces) & Bloodstained Chivalry (2 Pieces)
Gladiator's Finale (2 Pieces) & Bloodstained Chivalry (2 Pieces)

Electro DPS Build

The Stringless is a fairly easy bow to obtain that boosts Fischl’s Elemental abilities, which is what we want in this setup. On the Artifact side, Thundering Fury is the perfect set for this build since its bonuses to Electro damage and the related Reactions bring good synergy in a varied party.

Physical DPS Build

Using the Compound Bow turns Fischl into a machinegun, so there’s not a better option. However, good alternatives are the Skyward Harp and the Favonius Warbow. The artifact setup we want will depend on whether we just want raw bonuses on Attack and Physical damage, which in that case will involve a mix of 2 pieces of Bloodstained Chivalry with either Gladiator's Finale or Pale Flame. However, if you prefer it you can also go full into the Bloodstained Chivalry set.

What are the best team comps for Fischl?

Fischl is a DPS unit that plays extremely well with others, especially if you can trigger any Electro-related Reaction with any of your fellow party members by using Oz. She also acts as a great tool to trigger Elemental Reactions in tandem with characters like Bennett, Venti, or Qiqi.
