What is a Good Ratio for Raiden?

Raiden is a popular character in the Genshin Impact, a free-to-play role-playing game developed by MiHoYo. She is an Electro-based cryomancer with high damage output and versatility. When building her, players often ask: "What is a good ratio for Raiden?"

In this article, we will explore the ideal ratio for Raiden, focusing on Critical Rate, Critical Damage, and Energy Recharge.

Ideal Ratio

For Raiden, it’s recommended to have the following ratio:

• Critical Rate: 60% (~70% during Burst) or higher
• Critical Damage: 120% or higher
• Energy Recharge: 25% or higher

However, these are general recommendations and may vary depending on individual playstyles and needs. We will discuss why these ratios are beneficial in more detail below.

Why Critical Rate?

As a cryomancer, Raiden relies heavily on Elemental Skills and Elemental Burst. Critical Rate is essential for increasing the overall damage output. For a character like Raiden, who has multiple options to apply Electro elements and increase Critical Hits, reaching 60% Critical Rate will provide a significant increase in damage.

Here is a table summarizing the increased damage from Critical Hits with 60% Critical Rate and 120% Critical Damage:

To reach 60% Critical Rate, you can explore artifacts with Critical Rate enhancements or consider using artifacts like:

• Makalus Inlaid Circus Boots: +12-16% Critical Rate

Why Critical Damage?

While Critical Rate increases the number of Critical Hits, Critical Damage amplifies their effects. Aim for 120% or higher Critical Damage to boost damage output. Combining Critical Rate and Critical Damage will result in formidable attacks.

Here is an example of how Critical Damage works:

• 200% Basic Attack DMG becomes 240% if hit is Critical (with Critical Rate: 60-80%)
• 60% of 240 DMG becomes 144 Crit. DMG (adding up to 384 damage total)

To achieve high Critical Damage, focus on artifacts with Critical Damage enhancement:

• Ameha’s Hair Adornment: +15% Crit. DMG
• Runic Fang Circle: +12% Crit. DMG

Why Energy Recharge?

As an Electro-based cryomancer, Raiden needs Energy to use her skills and Elemental Burst frequently. Energy Recharge enables Raiden to recharged Energy quickly:

• 25% Recharge rate means 125 Energy gained per 20-second interval
• Average playtime: 7-8 seconds for recharge between Energy-intensive abilities (Skill + Burst)

The Ameha’s Inlaid Polearm + weapon, for instance, can provide 18.7% Energy Recharge rate. Additionally, utilize characters like:

• Beidou: 9% Energy Recharge (+30% Energy Recharge duration)
• Ayato Kamisato: +18% Energy Recharge duration

Other Notes:

• Always optimize the main stat according to Raiden’s current priorities: HP, Energy Recharge, or Critical Rate.
• Keep in mind artifacts that offer both Critical Rate and Critical Damage enhancements can potentially alter the ideal ratio mentioned earlier.
• Balance different components (e.g., Normal ATK, Crit ATK) for a harmonized set of attributes.

Conclusion:

In summary, aiming for a Critical Rate of 60% (+70% during Burst) with 120% or higher Critical Damage, as well as 25% Energy Recharge rate for Raiden, can make your gameplay experience more successful and enjoyable. Always explore options for Critical Rate enhancements through artifacts and adjust these numbers based on individual skill requirements and playstyle evolution.

Keep in mind: a 5-star crit-boosting artifact from Fleischlos of Homa like (Critical Rate) in hand, can boost performance!
