In Genshin Impact, Baizhu is 5 star character, which belongs to the Dendro element and uses a catalyst in battle. In a squad, he can perform the function of an excellent support or a good sub-DD. In this guide, you will learn about his best builds, weapons and artifacts, as well as recommended commands for him.
Note: The owner of Bubu's Hut hasn't been officially released yet, so the data presented here is based on information received during the beta testing. If necessary, we will update the guide when the Achievement: Hero appears in the game.
Main Features of Baizhu
How to get Baizhu
In the second phase of patch 3.6 (starts on May 3), this character will appear in banner, which will increase the likelihood of it falling out. Thus, it will be possible to get it only with the help of Prayers. Unfortunately, miHoYo has never hosted events where a 5-star fighter would be a reward, so you definitely won’t be able to get this catalyst for free.
Baizhu characteristic progression
The table below shows how a character's base stats change as they level up.
| Level | Base HP | Basic Attack | Basic protection | Bonus HP% | Crit chance. hits | Crete. damage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1039 | 15 | 39 | 0 | 5% | 50% |

Advantages and Disadvantages of Baizhu
Thanks to his abilities, he can heal and protect his allies, making it easier to fight bosses and other powerful enemies. Its main advantages include:
- An extremely useful support for almost any Dendro squad, as it can not only heal allies alone, but also impose a Noelle: Protector on them (it will be most useful in packs for Budding and its derivatives) and help in creating Dendro reactions, because thanks to the catalyst, all his attacks deal elemental damage.
- The effectiveness of his healing and the strength of the shield depend on the maximum HP, which increases significantly when the hero ascends, which makes it much easier to create a balanced build of a hybrid support / sub-DD. If a pure support character is required, then it is enough to pump just one characteristic.
- You can save food outside of combat, as the character is able to heal allies by simply picking up some items while exploring locations.
- To unleash its potential, it is not necessary to unlock the constellations, as well as put legendary weapons and ideal artifacts on it, which greatly simplifies the construction of its build for F2P players.
However, there were some disadvantages, many of which come straight from the advantages of Bai Zhu:
- The Noelle: Protector is not very durable, so it often breaks after one or two powerful enemy strikes. So it will not be able to provide stable interruption protection.
- Elemental Burst is quite expensive (80 units) and has a long cooldown (20 seconds), so it may require a high stat Energy recovery.
- There are no truly strong constellations that can dramatically improve the hero.
- It has relatively low base attack and defense values, so it is not recommended to use it as a main damage dealer.
- Suitable for use only in Dendro squads - in all other packs you simply will not be able to reveal all its capabilities.
- Significantly inferior to Nahid as a Dendro applicator. For example, the cooldown of his elemental skill is 10 seconds, during which time Dendro Archon will be able to use his skill twice (with a quick tap).
Bai Zhu's abilities
When performing a normal attack "Acupuncture Classic" the character makes up to 4 shots with a catalyst in front of him, and when charged, he casts a short spell that deals damage to Dendro in an area and spends some stamina. In the case of a falling attack, it accumulates energy and lands on the ground, attacking all enemies in its path and then dealing elemental damage in an area.
Explanation: Attacks look spectacular, but they hit slightly and not very far, so use it as drivers would be problematic, as it will reduce the overall damage of the squad.
When using an elemental skill "Universal Diagnostics" the character releases a flying spirit that attacks nearby enemies (up to 3), inflicting damage to Dendro. After performing three attacks or no mobs, he flies back and heals all heroes. Healing efficiency depends on Bai Zhu's maximum HP.
Explanation: If there are three enemies on the battlefield, then the flying spirit will hit them all once, if there are two, then it will attack one of them twice, and if there is one, it will hit it three times. As a result, this boomerang will return to its owner in any case and heal the entire squad.
Elemental Burst "Holistic Recovery" Summons a Seamless Noelle: Protector that refreshes every 2.5 seconds (Dendro absorbs damage at 250% efficiency). He also heals the active hero (healing amount based on Bai Zhu's max HP) and attacks enemies with ghostly arteries that deal damage to Dendro. Attacks occur when a new shield is created, expired, or destroyed.
Explanation: At level 10 of the skill and at 40,000 Bai Zhu health, the ult on average can provide an active character with 5-6 heals for 4-5 thousand health, which will save the life of almost any hypercarry even in the most difficult situations. As for the shield itself, it is not very strong, so you should not count on it much - its main task is to activate the treatment and impose Dendro status.
It is also impossible not to mention the very useful passive talents of the owner of the "Bubu Hut", namely:
- Benefit of Herbs - Gathering certain items (mostly plants) restores health equal to 2.5% of Bai Zhu's maximum life bar to the active hero.
- Eternal Cycle of the Elements - If the hero's health bar is below 50%, then he receives a 20% bonus to healing, and if it is higher, then a 25% bonus to Dendro damage.
- Everything is born of the earth - characters healed by the Seamless Shield receive the Year of Green Benefit effect, in which every thousand points of Bai Zhu's maximum health (calculated up to 50 thousand HP) increases the damage of the reactions they cause by 2% (Blossom, Budding, Vegetation and Elemental Reaction: Burning) and 0.8% (Growth and Aggravation) for 6 seconds.
Constellations Baizhu
To open them, you need the Serendipity of the character, which is issued in the event of the loss of duplicates of the hero, which, of course, is random. Given the low drop rate of 5-star characters, it will take you a lot of money and time to unlock all the constellations. However, even without them, Bai Zhu can perfectly play the role of a support.
If you have enough resources to open constellations and want to strengthen the character as a sub-DD, then try to unlock C2 and C6, which increase Dendro's damage and increase his healing abilities as a bonus. The entire list of constellations is presented below.
- Sumeru: Observance - Increases the number of charges of an elemental skill by 1.
- Sharp Sagacity – Creates a Flying Spirit: A slash when hit by an active hero that deals 250% of Bai Zhu's Attack Damage to Dendro and heals allies for 20% of E-shki's healing. The effect can occur once every 5 seconds.
- Stabilization of Eight Aspects - Increases the elemental explosion level by three. Maximum level: 15th.
- Ancient Art of Perception - after using the ult mastery of the elements of all team members increases by 80 units.
- Hidden Currents - The level of elemental skill increases by three. Maximum level: 15th.
- Eliminate Malicious Energy - Increases the damage dealt by Ghost Arteries by 8% of the hero's maximum health. Hitting enemies with a flying spirit creates a seamless Noelle: Protector.
How to play Baizhu
We are talking about a universal support, which in a team playing through the reaction Dendro can fill several roles at once: healer, shielder and applicator. With it, you can heal allies, quickly inflict Elemental Reaction: Burning, Stimulate or Budding and strengthen them, protect the active hero, and even deal relatively good damage.
Even so, he won't take much time from the main-DD, since Bai Zhu's main ability does not require him to be on the battlefield. The rotation is not much different from whether you use this hero as a support or a sub-DD. It looks like this:
- First, use Bai Zhu's elemental skill to heal the squad and apply the Dendro status to opponents (this step can be skipped if the characters are at full health and you do not need energy for the ult).
- You use the abilities of other supports and sub-DDs that give buffs and apply statuses from your pocket.
- Use Bai Zhu's ult to get a shield and activate the healing process.
- Switch to main-DD to deal the main damage to opponents. Being under the effect of the shield and constantly healing, he does not have to worry about enemy attacks.
A similar rotation is also suitable for hypercarries, for example, Cyno or al-Haytham, who should be on the battlefield almost all the time. In this case, Bai Zhu can only be released to apply an elemental explosion on cooldown.
Best builds for Baizhu
Support
The easiest build to create, since basically you will only need to increase the HP and Obtaining Energy (to use the cooldown ult) of the character. The following catalysts can be used as weapons.
| Name and rarity | Characteristics (level 1-90) | Passive Ability |
|---|---|---|
|
Splendor of the Azure Vault (5 stars) |
HP: 10.8~49.6% Basic Attack: 46~608 |
When using an ult or shielding, the equipped Achievement: Hero gains the status of a Willstone for 3 seconds, during which 4.5 units of energy are restored to him every 2.5 seconds, and the damage bonus of the corresponding element increases by 0.3% for every thousand points of maximum health (Maximum may increase by 12%). The effect occurs even if the character is in the pocket. A signature for Bai Zhu that empowers him to cast Elemental Burst more frequently, boosts HP with increased healing and Noelle: Protector, and increases damage dealt. Therefore, you can use this catalyst for both support and sub-DD. |
|
Everlasting Moonglow (5 stars) |
HP: 10.8~49.6% Basic Attack: 46~608 |
Increases healing bonus by 10-20% and normal hit damage by 1-3% of the hero's maximum health. After using the ult for 12 seconds, all normal hits on the enemy restore 0.6 units of energy. A good option for both support and sub-DD as a driver. The first one gets a significant boost in healing abilities, while the second one will be able to deal much more damage with normal attacks, constantly imposing a status on Dendro enemies. |
|
Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers (3 stars) |
HP: 7.7~35.2% Basic Attack: 39~401 |
When changing hero, increases the active character's attack power by 24-48% for 10 seconds. The bonus occurs every 20 seconds. Another good free weapon for a support that can buff Bai Zhu's main damage and healing abilities. True, the lack of energy will have to be compensated by artifacts. |
|
Prototype Amber (4 stars) |
HP: 9~41.3% Basic Attack: 42~510 |
After using the ult for 6 seconds, restores 4-6 units of energy every 2 seconds. Regenerates 4-6% health for all team members every 2 seconds. A great free option for a support, increasing his healing and defensive abilities, as well as providing additional energy needed to cast an ult on cooldown. |
|
Favonius Codex (4 stars) |
Obtaining Energy: 10~45.9% Basic Attack: 42~510 |
Critical strikes have a 60~100% chance to spawn elemental particles that restore 6 energy. The effect appears once every 12~6 seconds. Allows you to solve the problem of energy accumulation not only for Bai Zhu, but for the entire pack as a whole. However, you will have to collect crits and HP from artifacts. |
As for artifacts, we advise you to take two incomplete sets for support, which allow you to ult more often and increase the hero’s buffs:
- Tenacity of the Millelith (or Sweet Dew Radiance): 2 parts - Increases HP by 20%. Can be found in the dungeon "Ridge Watch" .
- Emblem of Sundered Fate: 2 pieces - Increases your energy regeneration rate by 20%. Can be found in the dungeon "Momiji-Dyed Court" .
If you have no problems with energy recovery thanks to the weapon, then you can combine Tenacity of the Millelith (Sweet Dew Radiance) with two parts Shellfish of sea colors or Beloved young maiden, which increase healing by 15%. The first set can be found in "Dreaming Garden" , and the second in "Valley of Memories" .
If you want to slightly increase Bai Zhu's personal damage, you can give him a full set of Nautical Color Clam. If all 4 parts are used, then when healing allies, the Achievement: Hero will begin to create bubbles of sea paints that fix the restored health points, and then explode, dealing damage to enemies in the amount of 90 percent of the calculated amount of treatment. A bubble can occur once every 3.5 seconds and lock up to 40,000 HP regenerated. Only one bubble can exist at a time. It occurs even when the character is not on the battlefield.
If we talk about the choice of the main characteristics for artifacts, then take the hourglass for HP (or the Obtaining Energy in case of its shortage), the bowl - for HP, the crown - for HP. The priority of choosing additional parameters is as follows: HP%, Obtaining Energy%, elemental mastery.
Minor DPS
It will be more difficult to assemble this assembly, as you will have to maintain a balance between the characteristics. We recommend taking Elemental or Critical Mastery weapons to increase your damage output:
| Name and rarity | Characteristics (level 1-90) | Passive Ability |
|---|---|---|
|
Splendor of the Azure Vault (5 stars) |
HP: 10.8~49.6% Basic Attack: 46~608 |
When using an ult or shielding, the equipped Achievement: Hero gains the status of a Willstone for 3 seconds, during which 4.5 units of energy are restored to him every 2.5 seconds, and the damage bonus of the corresponding element increases by 0.3% for every thousand points of maximum health (Maximum may increase by 12%). The effect occurs even if the character is in the pocket. A signature for Bai Zhu that empowers him to cast Elemental Burst more frequently, boosts HP with increased healing and Noelle: Protector, and increases damage dealt. Therefore, you can use this catalyst for both support and sub-DD. |
|
Everlasting Moonglow (5 stars) |
HP: 10.8~49.6% Basic Attack: 46~608 |
Increases healing bonus by 10-20% and normal hit damage by 1-3% of the hero's maximum health. After using the ult for 12 seconds, all normal hits on the enemy restore 0.6 units of energy. A good option for both support and sub-DD as a driver. The first one gets a significant boost in healing abilities, while the second one will be able to deal much more damage with normal attacks, constantly imposing a status on Dendro enemies. |
|
A Thousand Floating Dreams (5 stars) |
Elemental Mastery: 58~265 Basic Attack: 44~542 |
Increases the character's elemental mastery by 32 if there are fighters of the same element in the squad, or increases his elemental damage by 10% if the elements of other team members do not match. In addition, all party members (except for the one equipped with this weapon) have an increase in MS by 40 units. Grants a huge amount of Elemental Mastery, which will greatly enhance Dendro's reactions created with Bai Zhu. |
|
The Widsith (4 stars) |
Crete. Damage: 12%~55.1% Basic Attack: 42~510 |
After switching to a character, a random Barbara: Flow starts playing, which can increase attack power (by 60 percent), elemental damage (by 48 percent), or elemental mastery (by 240 points). The effect lasts for 10 seconds and can appear once every half a minute. Almost all buffs will be useful to sub-DD, especially elemental mastery. The weapon will greatly increase Bai Zhu's personal damage output. |
|
Mappa Mare (4 stars) |
Elemental Mastery: 24~110 Basic Attack: 42~510 |
Increases elemental damage by 8%~16% for 10 seconds after triggering an elemental reaction. The bonus stacks up to two times. Another good option that can be used is a secondary damage dealer, as it increases Dendro's damage and MS. |
|
Sacrificial Fragments (4 stars) |
Elemental Mastery: 48~221 Basic Attack: 41~454 |
Dealing damage with an elemental skill has a 40~80% chance to instantly restore its cooldown. The effect occurs every 30-16 seconds. Its main advantage lies in providing Bai Zhu with a lot of MS. Passive, on the other hand, allows you to use E-shku much more often, with which the character can accelerate the accumulation of energy for the ult. |
|
Wandering Evenstar (4 stars) |
Elemental Mastery: 36~165 Basic Attack: 42~510 |
Every ten seconds, the character's attack power increases by 24%~48% of their elemental mastery, even when not on the battlefield. The effect lasts for 12 seconds, and nearby team members receive 30% of the bonus. The effect is stacked if other members of the group have this weapon. Will increase the damage from the hero's abilities and give a small buff to his allies. |
|
Magic Guide (4 stars) |
Elemental Mastery: 41~187 Basic Attack: 38~354 |
Increases damage by 12%~24% when fighting enemies that are under the influence of Electro or Hydro elements. A free option that can be used in commands for both Stimulation and Budding. |
If we talk about artifacts, then we advise you to collect a complete set Deepwood Memories, 2 parts of which increase Dendro's damage bonus by 15%, and 4 parts - if hit by an ult or elemental skill, reduce the enemy's resistance to Dendro damage by 30% for 8 seconds. The bonus is activated even if the character is not on the battlefield. It can be found in the dungeon "The Spire of Solitary Enlightenment" .
In the absence of the entire set, you can temporarily combine it with two parts Millelite durability (Sweet Dew Radiance), which will increase the character's maximum health by 20%, or Gilded dreams (Traveling Ensemble, Flower of Paradise Lost), which increase Elemental Mastery by 80. The latter can be obtained from elite bosses or The Spire of Lonely Enlightenment.
As for the main characteristics of the artifacts, then take the hourglass for the mastery of the elements (or the Obtaining Energy if it is lacking), the goblet (chalice) for the Dendro damage bonus, and the cap (crown) for critical damage / critical hit chance in a ratio of 2 to 1 (or elemental mastery). Among the additional options, choose HP%, Obtaining Energy, Elemental Mastery, and Crits.
