How to Build the Best Candace in Genshin Impact 3.1

Best Support Build for Candace 

Candace’s abilities focus on Hydro infusion and providing elemental damage to sword, polearm, and claymore characters – so she’s best paired with any other five or four-star character as the main DPS wielding one of these weapons.

 

Candace’s burst is the focus of this support build as it buffs other characters, providing Hydro infusion, increased elemental damage with normal attacks, and whenever a new character enters the field, a rippling wave deals Hydro damage to nearby opponents.

 

Best Weapons for Candace: Engulfing Lightning

Engulfing Lightning is a strong pick for Candace. The secondary stat increases energy recharge by 12 percent, which is handy since Candace’s burst requires 60 energy. The passive skill boosts attack and energy recharge, meaning Candace will almost always be topped up and can deal a bit of damage while she’s on the field.

 

The Staff of Homa as another good weapon for a Candace support build to increase HP and attack bonus based on the maximum HP, also increasing attack bonus by an additional percentage if the HP drops below 50%. As a four-star option, you could opt for the Favonius Lance and increase the critical hit chance to generate elemental particles and in turn, energy.

 

Best Artifacts for Candace: Noblesse Oblige

Noblesse Oblige

2-Piece: Elemental Burst DMG +20%

4-Piece: Using an Elemental Burst increases all party members’ ATK by 20% for 12s. This effect cannot stack.

 

In order to boost Candace’s support capabilities even further, Noblesse Oblige’s 12-second ATK boost perfectly lines up with the duration of her Hydro infusion so she can bring down an opponent’s health down a notch before switching out to your main DPS.

 

Secondary Choice: The Exile

2-Piece: Energy Recharge +20%

4-Piece: Using an Elemental Burst regenerates 2 Energy for all party members (excluding the wearer) every 2s for 6s. This effect cannot stack.

 

If you’re not really using Candace to grant infusion, or your team is still short on Energy most of the time, then this artifact set is a great band-aid solution for any energy problems you may encounter. However, if you’re not using Candace for her infusion, then you might want to reconsider your team composition entirely.

 

Best Team Comps for Candace

Candace’s burst is the focus of this support build as it buffs other characters, providing Hydro infusion, increased elemental damage with normal attacks, and whenever a new character enters the field, a rippling wave deals Hydro damage to nearby opponents.

 

Overall, Candace's team comps are quite limited, as her infusion can ruin reaction combos. Characters who mainly deal damage with normal attacks can be supported by Candace.

 

Candace + Ayato + Xiangling + Bennett

This is the most optimal Candace team - she will be the main support, boosting the normal attack of the team. Ayato will be the main DPS who deals damage using normal attacks. He also get some HP boost via Hydro Resonance.

 

Xiangling will be the sub-DPS of the team, triggering Vaporize. Bennett will buff the team and provide stable healing, while unlocking Pyro Resonance.
