Raiden Shogun can be valuable to any team in Genshin Impact. Although she's an Electro character, players can still count on her ability to support and inflict great damage. Other than that, she can also be a decent battery for her team.

Genshin Impact Constellations require Travelers to dedicate their Primogems for copies of the desired character. This will unlock powerful effects, but as it may cost a lot, players should always know what they're getting into. When it comes to Raiden Shogun’s Constellation, here’s a brief overview to help players understand what to prioritize.

Are Raiden Shogun's Constellations Worth It In Genshin Impact?

To simply put it, yes, Raiden Shogun's Constellations are worth it. C0 Raiden Shogun is one of the best Supports in Genshin Impact. But with her Constellations, she gets a boost to her damage and abilities, giving her more flexibility to take more roles.

C1, C2, and C3 improve her damage, while C4 and C6 improve her supportive abilities. Players should aim for the right Constellation based on how they want to build their Raiden.

C1 – Ominous Inscription

  • Effect: When Electro characters use their Elemental Bursts, the Resolve gained is increased by 80%. When characters of other Elemental Types use their Elemental Bursts, the Resolve gained is increased by 20%.
  • Importance: Medium

C1 Raiden Shogun gains her Resolve faster, which in turn improves her total damage, especially when she is paired with another Electro character. Players can maximize the effect of this Constellation by putting Raiden Shogun in a team composition that depends on Elemental Bursts rotation.

C2 - Steelbreaker

C2 Raiden Shogun from Genshin Impact
  • Effect: When using Raiden Shogun's Elemental Burst and during Musou Isshin State, her attacks will ignore 60% of the opponent's defense.
  • Importance: Priority

C2 Raiden Shogun is without a doubt a top-tier Sub-DPS in Genshin Impact. Once she unleashes her Elemental Burst, Raiden will delete enemies in front of her. This effect also affects her Mussou Isshin state, so players will notice a massive change in DPS in her 7s duration.

C4 - Pledge of Propriety

C4 Raiden Shogun from Genshin Impact
  • Effect: When Raiden's Elemental Burst (Musou Isshin) state expires, all nearby party members (excluding Raiden) gain a 30% attack bonus for 10 seconds.
  • Importance: Low

C4 Raiden Shogun can increase her team attack for enough time until she takes the field again, so this buff almost has 100% uptime. Even though it's an excellent addition to the team, it's still an enormous price for a small outcome.

C6 - Wishbearer

C6 Raiden Shogun from Genshin Impact
  • Effect: During Raiden Shogun's Elemental Burst while in the Musou Isshin state, Raiden's attacks will decrease all nearby party members' Elemental Burst cooldown by 1 second. This effect can trigger once every second, and can trigger a total of 5 times during the state's duration.
  • Importance: Priority

C6 Raiden Shogun is so unique in Genshin Impact, where she can rush her team’s Burst rotations to outstandingly increase the total DPS. Because of this, this Constellation is perhaps the most important for her character, as it brings something to the party that no one else can.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
