Best Aloy Build
The following are the weapons and artifacts that we recommend for Aloy in Genshin Impact 2.1:
Best Weapons
The Predator Bow is Aloys weapon of choice. Unfortunately, you can only take full advantage of it if you are playing Genshin Impact on PS4 or PS5. If you are playing on other platforms then you will need to look into other options.
We can also recommend the Hamayumi as it comes with attack% as the secondary stat. Prototype Crescent is a great bow for free-to-play players that has attack% as the secondary stat. It also has increased damage if you hit enemy weak spots but note that enemies like Slimes do not have weak spots.
Best Artifacts
For the artifacts, we recommend the new Shimenawa’s Resistance set. 2 pieces are going to increase attack by 18%. 4 pieces are going to increase normal, charged, and plunge attack damage by 50% for 10 seconds by trading in 15 energy.
You can also go with the classic Blizzard Strayer set. 2 pieces are going to give you a 15% cryo damage bonus. 4 pieces are going to increase crit rate by 20% if the enemy being attacked is affected by cryo. If the enemy is frozen then the crit rate is increased by another 20%.
