1. My thoughts on “Magic” Razor

   I did not understand at first why Razor was considered to have been massively buffed when the leaks started, but after looking into information online by theorycrafters, I think I know understand why.

   ———————Razor’s Kit as Base————————————————-

   As a launch character (1.0), Razor (like many other characters) has a design that seems quirky compared to more recent character releases.

   Razor is intended to be an on-field/main DPS character. On launch, he was intended to be a Physical DPS character, with his character ascension stat being Physical Damage % (and to this day, he is the only character to have this as ascension stat). His game play revolves around him going into his Burst State, in which he summons the “Wolf Within”. The Wolf Within deals coordinated Electro normal attacks, intended to apply Electro application to enemies. The intention is for these to combine with cyro to trigger Super-Conduit, and therefore power up Razor’s actual normal attacks, which remain physical. In addition, he gets a massive attack speed bonus which helps increase his overall DPS further.

   Such a combination was quite good in the early days of Genshin Impact, but by around 2.0 it started to falter, as physical damage started to falter as a viable damage type while the attention focused to the actual elements.

   Razor did get a small revival when Dendro released in 3.0. Unfortunately, he was not able to fully take advantage due to his relatively low amount of electro damage. The physical damage part of his kit was mostly a waste.

   ———-”New” Razor: Overloaded with Chevreuse, Fischl, and Bennett———————————

   With Hoyoverse making the long anticipated decision to buff old units, Razor was fortunate to be among the few to get buffed. Razor will be part of the new best 4* only team in the game.

   Here is how it works:

   The changes from Razor’s Magic Faction buffs are intended to juice up his Electro damage and make it easier to maintain his Burst State. The first buff is to his “Wolf Within” coordinated attacks. I don’t believe this is an exact calculation, but 70% attack bonus to them is about a 60% damage boost. The motion value for the Electro coordinated attacks go from a paltry 43.2% at level 10 to 113.2% with the Magic boosts, being closer in parity to his physical normal attacks.

   If Razor gets an overflow of his Electro Sigls (so more than 4), he gets an instance of bonus damage (150%) and more importantly gets 7 energy. However, won’t work consistently unless he is at C6, which makes C6 REQUIRED.

   C6 will allow Razor to get 3 Sigls right away, continue to get them in batches of 3 while using his elemental skill in his burst state, and also give him some very useful crit rate and damage bonuses.

   Bennett will give his massive attack boost from his burst as well know, but there is one crucial detail that he also gives at C6: Pyro infusion.
   Bennett’s burst will infuse Razor’s normal attacks with Pyro, which means that Razor will be able to take advantage of the 15% Pryo Damage bonus that Bennett’s C6 also gives. More importantly, this will combine with Razor’s Electro dmg (mostly noticeably the “Wolf Within” coordinated attacks while in Burst State) to allow the wolf boy to overload his own hits. Razor’s Pyro and Electro damage will be boosted by Chevreuse’s 40% Pyro and Electro Resistance Shred, and her up to 60% Pyro and Electro Damage Bonus if at C6.

   Fischl most importantly unlocks Razor’s Magic faction buffs, but also give additional off-field damage, energy to Razor (from Electro Resonance and Oz’s particle generation) and at C6 gives a great 46% attack boost to both herself and Razor.

   **************************************************************************
   Turning Razor’s un-boosted Physical hits to boosted Pyro hits is the key to his newfound power.
   ***************************************************************************
   In this team with these specific members, Razor is nearly tied with Gaming for the title as best 4* Main DPS. If all 4 members are at C6, Razor total team damage will at least equal C2 Raiden Shogun/C0 Clorinde in their best Overloaded teams (and possibly even higher).

   ——————————Possible Substitutes—————————–

   The major weakness for Razor (and I think a possible reason why he has not been nerfed despite his power) is how specific his team is. As the newest character and cornerstone of overloaded teams, Chevreuse can work at C0, but C6 is highly recommended. However, Razor and Bennett’s C6s are mandatory, and Fischl’s C6 is nearly mandatory.

   The primary substitute is Durin, thanks to his status as a Magic Character, his resistance shred, and his strong off-field Pyro. He would be replacing Fischl or Bennett in the line up. However, losing Fischl means losing a Oz’s battery potential, so Razor may struggle to get his burst up every rotation. Losing Bennett would be a massive decrease in Razor’s personal damage, only somewhat made up by Durin’s damage. So I would not recommended Durin at C0. However, Durin’s constellations give additional buffs that improve team damage, so the trade off could be more worth it in those instances.

   ————————-Equipment————————————————–

   For main stats, Attack % on Sands, Attack % on Goblet (with Bennett) or Electro Damage % (without Bennett) and Crit Damage/Rate for Circlet.

   Since most of Razor’s damage will be from Pyro and Electro normal attacks (with Bennett) the best artifact set is Echos of an Offering since it further boosts normal attacks. However, since that set will not trigger consistently in high Ping, Gilded Dreams will be a solid alternative since Razor will be triggering Overload most of the time and will benefit from the EM and Attack buffs that set provides. Gladiator’s Finale is a decent option as well.

   Without Bennett, Razor’s elemental skill will become his biggest source of damage, so Golden Troupe will probably be his best (even if he can’t use the full effect since he is will be on field). A mix of 2 pieces of Attack or Electro Damage will also fare well.

   For weapons, the best 3* is Debate Club, but Tidal Shadow outclasses it as a craft-able (and therefore free to play) weapon. BP weapon Serpent Spine is the best 4* weapon.

   For 5* weapons, Skyward Pride is great if Razor is missing Fischl, and Wolf’s Gravestone is great if he doesn’t have Bennett. Beacon of the Red Sea (Dehya’s signature) is a great balanced weapon, but the best (with Bennett) would be Mavuika’s weapon (A Thousand Blazing Suns).

   ——————————-Summary———————————————–

   In summary, I feel that newer players should simply go for Varesa instead if they want an Overloaded team, as at C0 she is cheaper and better than Razor. However, veteran players who got C6 Razor, Bennett, and Fischl years ago may want to consider bringing him off the bench.

   It’s great to see an old character like Razor get some love after so many years.

4. Findings about Razor at patch 3.0:
   As of Patch 3.0, Razor team is insane Elemental Damage Dealer with Dendro Traveller, Xingqiu and Bennet. It requires Bennett C6 to deal the Bloom Seeds resulting Burgeon Reaction, otherwise it does not work that lacks AoE behind Bennet C6.

   Clips from Zajef77 below.

   Builds:
   1. Razor build needs full Elemental Mastery with Favonius Greatsword with enough Crit Rate and Energy Recharge on his stats. Varies with your builds.
   2. Bennett has a usefulness with his constellation 6, and Self-Overload of the Razor Burst. Use any weapons you want with enough Energy Recharge. It is ideal to use 4pc Instructor Artifact set.
   3. Dendro Traveller (DMC) needs more Energy Recharge that recommends Favonius Sword with enough Crit Rate. Must be equipped with 4pc Deepwood Memories artifact set to decrease Dendro RES to opponents.
   4. Xingqiu is fine, needs more Energy Recharge for his Elemental Burst varies with your builds you like.
