Genshin Impact Beidou is not a new character but she is a powerful supporter that you should build. But before building this character, you should understand her abilities and talents. Check out the profile of this character as well as how to build her here.

1. Profile Of Genshin Impact Beidou

Beidou is an Electro character coming from Liyue. She is the leader of The Crux who owns the ship to Inazuma. Therefore, you need to meet her if you want to travel to Inazuma. This character is also known as the Uncrowned Lord of the Ocean or Queen of the Crux Fleet.

You can obtain Beidou from Paimon's Bargains or Wish Banners. Beidou uses a big claymore to fight off enemies. She has three skills and three passive talents that you should know how to use.

2. How To Use Beidou's Skills

Beidou has been introduced for a long time and most of Genshin Impact players have got familiar with her normal attacks, elemental skills, and bursts, but not many players know how to use them effectively. Here are steps and tips to use Beidou's skills to take down enemies quickly and effectively.

Timing is Key

When using Beidou, timing is the key to success in beating enemies with her elemental skill. You should count the time to use her elemental skill, Tidecaller. You should use it in the flame of a Cryo ally or the wet air made by a Hydro character.

Besides, you can also use this elemental slash after a Cryo elemental burst causes the frost air around enemies. Then, her Electro element can cause the highest elemental DMG through many elemental reactions.

Use Elemental Burst to Defeat Mobs

When you counter mobs, use the elemental burst of Beidou to beat them and create a shield around her. After using the elemental skill to stun the mob, you tab on the elemental burst button. It's a great offensive talent of Beidou in Genshin Impact.

The Electro DMG of normal attacks, charged attacks, and elemental slashes will increase significantly. Moreover, during the phase of her elemental burst, she will continuously cause Electro DMG even when you switch to another character in the team.

Switch In When Exploring The Water

Beidou is a good choice for water exploring water thanks to her passive talent. She consumes less stamina than other characters in Teyvat when swimming by 20%. It's because she is a captain of a big ship and Beidou spends most of her life at sea. Therefore, she swims better than anyone else in this game.
