Choosing the Right Artifacts for Ororon

Beast Tamer’s Talisman	Mountain Ranger’s Marker	Mystic’s Golden Dial	Wandering Scholar’s Claw Cup	Demon-Warrior’s Feather Mask

• Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City (4-piece): This new five-star artifact set appears to be Genshin Impact Ororon’s best artifact set. The 2-piece bonus regenerates Energy for the equipping character when a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst. The 4-piece bonus grants an Elemental DMG Bonus to all nearby party members for the involved Elemental Types after the equipping character triggers a reaction. If the equipping character is in the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, this bonus is further increased. This set enhances both Genshin Impact Ororon’s energy sustainability and his team’s overall elemental damage.

Royal Flora	Royal Pocket Watch	Royal Plume	Royal Masque	Royal Silver Urn

• Noblesse Oblige (4-piece): This set is a solid support option, increasing Elemental Burst damage with the 2-piece bonus and buffing the team’s ATK after using an Elemental Burst with the 4-piece bonus. Since Genshin Impact Ororon frequently uses his Burst, this set can provide consistent team-wide ATK buffs. However, stacking this buff with other Noblesse Oblige users should be avoided.

Magnificent Tsuba	Storm Cage	Sundered Feather	Ornate Kabuto	Scarlet Vessel

• Emblem of Severed Fate (4-piece): This set is excellent for ensuring consistent Elemental Burst uptime. The 2-piece bonus provides a significant Energy Recharge increase, and the 4-piece bonus boosts Elemental Burst damage based on the character’s Energy Recharge. This is a reliable choice if Energy Recharge is a priority.

Thunderbird’s Mercy	Hourglass of Thunder	Survivor of Catastrophe	Thunder Summoner’s Crown	Omen of Thunderstorm

• Thundering Fury (4-piece): This set can be considered for a more damage-focused build, increasing Electro DMG with the 2-piece bonus and boosting damage from Overloaded, Electro-Charged, Superconduct, and Hyperbloom reactions with the 4-piece bonus. It also reduces Elemental Skill cooldown upon triggering Electro-related reactions.

Prioritizing Artifact Main Stats and Substats

The ideal main stats and substats for Genshin Impact Ororon’s artifacts depend on his build.

• Main Stats:
  • Sands: ATK% or Energy Recharge. If using Elegy for the End or Favonius Warbow, prioritize ATK% unless significant Energy Recharge issues persist.
  • Goblet: Electro DMG Bonus.
  • Circlet: CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG. Choose based on your weapon and substats to achieve a balanced CRIT ratio. If using Favonius Warbow, CRIT Rate is generally preferred to reliably trigger its passive.
• Substats: Energy Recharge should be the top priority to ensure consistent Burst uptime. Following that, focus on CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, ATK%, and Elemental Mastery, in varying order depending on the specific build and team composition.

Ororon’s Talents and Upgrade Priority

Genshin Impact Ororon’s talents contribute significantly to his damage and utility. The recommended upgrade priority is:

1. Dark Voices Echo (Elemental Burst): This is Genshin Impact Ororon’s primary source of off-field damage and provides crowd control through its taunt. Prioritizing its level will directly increase his damage output.
2. Night’s Sling (Elemental Skill): The Elemental Skill is important for triggering his Ascension 4 passive and dealing initial Electro damage. Leveling it increases its damage.
3. Spiritvessel Snapshot (Normal Attack): Since Genshin Impact Ororon is primarily played off-field, his Normal Attacks are generally not a priority for upgrading.

Ascension and Talent Materials

To fully ascend Ororon and level up his talents, you will need specific materials.

Ascension Materials

Talent Materials

• Ascension Materials: Vajrada Amethyst Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones (Electro), Glowing Hornshrooms (Local Specialty of Natlan), Juvenile Fangs, Seasoned Fangs, and Tyrant’s Fangs (dropped by Natlan Saurians), and Mark of the Binding Blessing (dropped by the All-Devouring Narwhal).
• Talent Materials: Teachings, Guide, and Philosophies of Kindling (obtained from Domain of Forgery: Flowing Flame on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays), Juvenile Fangs, Seasoned Fangs, and Tyrant’s Fangs (dropped by Natlan Saurians), and Lightless Silk String (dropped by the All-Devouring Narwhal). You will also need Mora and Crown of Insight for higher talent levels.

Effective Team Compositions for Ororon

Ororon excels in teams that can consistently trigger Electro-Charged reactions. He also synergizes well with characters who benefit from off-field Electro application and energy regeneration.

Neuvillette	Xilonen	Kazuha	Sucrose

• Taser Teams: These teams typically include a Hydro Main DPS (like Neuvillette or Xilonen), an Anemo character for crowd control and elemental absorption (like Kazuha or Sucrose), and another Electro or Hydro support. Ororon fits perfectly as the off-field Electro Sub-DPS in such compositions.

Chasca	Ororon

• Chasca Rainbow Teams: These teams focus on maximizing Chasca’s converted Shell DMG multipliers and utilize Ororon for additional Electro application to trigger Electro-Charged. The combination of Hydro and Electro allows Ororon’s passive to be triggered effectively.

Alhaitham	Nahida

• Hyperbloom Teams: While not his primary role, Ororon can be part of Hyperbloom teams with a Dendro Main DPS (like Alhaitham or Nahida), a Hydro character, and another support. In this setup, Ororon’s consistent Electro application can trigger Hyperbloom reactions on Dendro Cores.

Understanding Ororon’s Constellations

Ororon’s Constellations

Ororon’s constellations can further enhance his abilities and provide additional utility.

• C1 (Trails Amidst the Forest Fog): Increases the number of bounces of his Elemental Skill’s Spirit Orb and applies a Nighttide effect, increasing damage from his Hypersense passive.
• C2 (King Bee of the Hidden Honeyed Wine): Grants an Electro DMG Bonus after using his Elemental Burst and further increases it for each additional opponent hit.
• C3 (Roosting Bat’s Spiritcage): Increases the Level of his Elemental Burst by 3.
• C4 (As the Mysteries of the Night Wind): Increases the rotation speed of the Supersonic Oculus and restores Energy to Ororon after using his Elemental Burst.
• C5 (A Gift For the Soul): Increases the Level of his Elemental Skill by 3.
• C6 (Ode to Deep Springs): Increases the active character’s ATK after triggering his Hypersense passive and triggers an additional Hypersense instance when using his Elemental Burst. This constellation significantly enhances his support capabilities and personal damage.

Gameplay Tips and Rotations

Playing Ororon effectively involves understanding his talent interactions and energy generation. A basic rotation often involves using his Elemental Skill to apply Electro and gain the Aspect Sigil, then switching to the Main DPS to trigger reactions and benefit from the energy regeneration. Using his Elemental Burst provides consistent off-field damage and crowd control. Prioritize maintaining his Burst uptime by managing his Energy Recharge through artifacts and weapon choices.
