Genshin Impact Elegy For The End

Genshin Impact Elegy for the End

Weapon Type: Bow
Rarity: ★★★★★ (5-Star)
Base ATK (Lv. 90): 608
Secondary Stat: Energy Recharge
ER Value (Lv. 90): 55.1%
Passive Ability (The Parting Refrain):
Increases Elemental Mastery by 60. When Elemental Skills or Bursts hit opponents, the wielder gains a Sigil of Remembrance (0.2s cooldown, off-field compatible). At 4 Sigils, they are consumed to grant all nearby party members +100 Elemental Mastery and +20% ATK for 12s. After this, the wielder cannot gain Sigils for 20s. Buffs of the same “Millennial Movement” type do not stack.

Overview

Genshin Impact Elegy for the End is a premier support-focused 5-star bow, often referred to as Venti’s signature weapon. It stands out due to its unique ability to buff the entire team with ATK% and Elemental Mastery, enabling reaction-heavy compositions to thrive. With a high base Energy Recharge stat and a potent passive, it is one of the most coveted support bows in the game, offering unmatched value for characters that can trigger its effect reliably.

Passive Mechanics and Strengths

• Team-wide Buffing: Triggers +100 EM and +20% ATK for the team after 4 stacks.
  
• Off-field Compatibility: Characters can build stacks while off-field, allowing flexibility in team rotations.
  
• Visual Indicator: Rotating musical notes signal stack buildup, with a harp icon displaying when the buff activates.
  
• Buff Cooldown: Buff duration is 12s, with a 20s cooldown window before Sigil generation resumes.
  

Best Users

Character	Usage Notes
Venti	Best-in-slot for support builds. Burst alone generates full stacks. EM buff increases Swirl damage. Offers superior support value compared to most bows.
Faruzan	Excellent support synergy. High ER helps Burst uptime. Buffs ATK for Anemo DPS units like Wanderer and Xiao.
Fischl	Oz generates stacks while off-field. Strong in Aggravate comps for its EM boost.
Kujou Sara	Excellent choice. Requires careful rotation at C0; smoother at C2+. Benefits from both ER and EM.
Yelan	Viable for support role. Skill and coordinated Burst hits generate stacks.
Collei	Well-suited for Bloom and Quicken teams. Skill and Sprout effects generate stacks easily.
Sigewinne	Great for ER and support builds. Triggers buffs during reaction-based play.
Amber	Niche VV shred support. Works in Vaporize comps or teamwide buff setups.
Ororon	Can act as a support/sub-DPS hybrid, enhancing his team’s elemental damage.
Diona	Especially viable at C6 for EM buffs. Supports EM-centric teams with ease.

Other Users (Situational)

Character	Notes
Gorou	Generally better with Favonius Warbow for Geo teams.
Tighnari	Only suitable if built as a support or in team buff roles, not optimal.

Not Recommended For

Characters focused on personal damage who lack the ability to consistently trigger the weapon’s passive:

• Yoimiya
  
• Childe (Tartaglia)
  
• Sethos
  
• Chasca
  
• Aloy
  

These characters gain minimal benefit from team-wide EM/ATK buffs and instead prefer Crit-focused stat sticks.

Ascension Materials (to Lv. 90)

Comparison with Other Weapons

Elegy remains unique in the bow category for offering dual support buffs, making it a valuable asset in teams reliant on Elemental Reactions or Amplified Reactions (Melt/Vape/Bloom/Aggravate).

Strategic Tips

• Triggering Stacks Efficiently: Use multi-hit abilities or coordinated attacks (e.g., Oz, Venti’s Burst) to gain stacks quickly.
  
• Team Synergy: Ideal for comps where multiple units scale with EM (e.g., Hyperbloom, Aggravate, Burgeon).
  
• Buff Management: Millennial Movement buffs don’t stack—avoid using Elegy alongside Freedom-Sworn or Song of Broken Pines.
  
• Role Optimization: Characters with flexible off-field presence or burst cycling benefit most from this weapon.
  

Final Assessment

Elegy for the End is one of the most versatile and powerful 5-star support weapons in Genshin Impact. Its ability to provide team-wide Elemental Mastery and ATK buffs makes it a top-tier choice in reaction-based teams, particularly in Spiral Abyss or co-op setups. It is not a must-pull for all players, but its long-term value across multiple support units makes it a worthy side investment for any account that lacks strong team buffers.
