Player Mistakes
Back to All Characters
Furina, as one of the the highly anticipated characters, has finally became playable inGenshin Impactwith the release of version 4.2. Players can now explore her unique mechanics and experiment with different team compositions. Furina offers unique abilities, particularly related to HP gain and loss mechanic, which have been a central theme in the Fontaine character roster.
Regardless, even without the need to pair her with other Fontaine characters, Furina can significantly benefit a team. Her abilities bring a valuable asset, offering support and damage to your party. Many players may be curious about the necessity of unlocking Furina’s constellations to enhance her utility inGenshin Impact. The good news is that Furina is a formidable character right away, and players can enjoy her capabilities without investing in constellations. While her constellations provide enhancements, they are not mandatory for her to perform quite well.
Are Furina Constellations Worth It In Genshin Impact?
Furina’s early constellations primarily focus on improving her Elemental Burst and Fanfare stacks, enhancing her support capabilities. Nevertheless, it’s worth noting that players can get a decent amount of Fanfare without the need to invest in constellations. On the other hand, her sixth constellation is the most worthwhile constellation for her, as it introduces a new playstyle to her kit. This allows her to provide different benefits even when utilized on-field more often.
In summary, players who wish to invest only a few resources can consider either leaving her at C0 or unlocking her C2 constellation to enhance her support utility further. However, her C2 is not as essential as some other characters likeNahidaorRaiden Shogun’s, making it a more flexible choice for players with varying preferences and priorities, or limited resources.
C1 - Love Is a Rebellious Bird That None Can Tame
Furina’sfirst constellation not only increases the maximum Fanfare stacks from 300 to 400 but also provides Fanfare stacks upon using her Elemental Burst. This allows players to reach maximum DMG Dealt and Healing Bonus buffs quicker, enabling increased damage output even with minimal HP% changes during the rotation. At talent level 10, this results in approximately a 25% boost in DMG Dealt bonus, making it quite worthwhile. However, the 150 stacks granted by this constellation may not be necessary, especially if playershave characters like NeuvilletteorWriothesleywith their own HP loss and gain mechanics, which can quickly max out the stacks either way.
Overall, if players plan to unlock C2, this constellation is a good addition, but otherwise, C0 is sufficient on its own for many players.
C2 - A Woman Adapts Like Duckweed in Water
Similarly to C1, C2’s first effect focuses on maximizing the Fanfare stacks as quick as possible, ensuring that the team benefits from the maximum buffs more quickly. While this effect is useful, it’s not absolutely necessary. However, what makes C2 more valuable is its secondary effect, which increases Furina’s Max HP after reaching the maximum Fanfare stacks. The increased Max HP significantly enhances Furina’s healing andoff-field DPS capabilities, allowing her to focus on other stats like crit or Hydro DMG bonus on the goblet. While not mandatory, this constellation can transform Furina into a more potent off-field DPS option, in addition to providing healing and buffs.
It’s important to note that Furina will need to accumulate an additional 400 stacks to reach this added Max HP, which may be challenging for some players if the team composition lacks characters with access to HP gain and loss mechanics. In particular, to make the best out of this as an off-field DPS, players will need to rely more on a healer compared to her C0.
C4 - They Know Not Life, Who Dwelt in the Netherworld Not!
Furina may not be a battery unit capable of easily generating a lot of energy on her own, but her relatively low energy cost of 60, coupled with her long Burst uptime, means she isn’t entirely reliant on a constellation to sustain her Burst. This is particularly true when players pair her with other Hydro unitsor battery characters. Her energy generation during the Burst cooldown is limited to about 12 Energy, which is not a significant amount on its own. As a result, Furina’s fourth constellation is the least valuable for her kit and the rest of the team.
C6 - Hear Me — Let Us Raise the Chalice of Love!
Furina’s sixth constellation is quite extensive and may appear confusing to some players due to its lengthy description. In summary, this constellation introduces an entirely new gameplay style to Furina’s kit, enabling her to infuse her Normal attacks with Hydro and providing different effects based onher current Arkhe alignment. Interestingly, the effects she grants (either more damage through Furina orhealing for team members) are opposite to what her summons provide, allowing her to be more versatile and focus more on her personal damage while keeping the team’s HP in check. In general, players interested in utilizing Furina as a hyper carry rather than primarily as an off-field character may want to consider this constellation. However, if they already have access to other strong Hydro DPS characters likeNeuvillette, they may find that Furina lags behind as a hyper carry, especially after investing too many resources to unlocking her final constellation.
