Summary
Joining the Fontaine cast inGenshin ImpactisSigewinne, the Head Nurse of the Fortress of Meropide, who also happens to be half-human and half-melusine, and is a DPS-healer hybrid. Although characters of that sort are few and far between, she actually has plenty of options for her weapons, especially free-to-play ones.
Sigewinne is a limited five-star, bow-wielding, Ousia-aligned character who possesses a Hydro vision. She spreads cuteness all over the battlefield with her bouncing bubbles and gigantic syringe, which allow her to deal HP-scaling DMG while healing the entire party. Just give her the right toys and she’s good to go.
Secondary Stat
Elemental Mastery (165)
Sigewinne deals DMG through both her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst, which makes The Stringless a viable option if you decide to build her as a DMG-dealer. It increases her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 24 to 48 percent without any complicated requirements.
Its secondary stat is Elemental Mastery, whichincreases the DMG of Elemental Reactionstriggered by Sigewinne. This weapon shines best when Sigwinne is used in Vaporize teams, where her Skill and Burst can benefit from the DMG and EM boost.
ATK (27.6 percent)
This bow from Inazuma’s Watatsumi series is actually rare, and that’s because it can only be summoned whenever it’s in the Limited Banner pool, and isn’t available in regular banners. If you manage to somehow get your hands on it, it’s a pretty good weapon on Sigewinne, and is one of her cheapest options.
Mouun’s Moon increases the wielder’s Elemental Burst DMG by 0.12 to 0.24 percent of the entire team’s combined maximum Energy capacity, for up to a whopping 40 to 80 percent Burst DMG increase. Sigewinne herself already has a 70-Energy Burst cost, so pairing her with other Energy-hungry characters will significantly increase her Burst DMG.
Sigewinne’s DMG and healing scale with her HP, and since this weapon provides ATK%, which she doesn’t need, you can use it and its passive even at Level One!
ATK (41.3 percent)
Song of Stillness is part of Fontaine’s craftable weapon series, which you can obtain simply by talking to the Blacksmith and collecting the required materials. Completely usable at just one refinement, this weapon becomes increasingly more powerful with more refinements and is completely free-to-play.
Its passive increases the wielder’s DMG by 16 to 32 percent for eight seconds after they get healed, which Sigewinne can easily activated with the healing from her Elemental Skill. Just like Mouun’s Moon, you can make complete use of this weapon at just Level One, since Sigewinne doesn’t care about its Base ATK or ATK percent secondary stat.
CRIT Rate (22.1 percent)
Ever since the start of the game, the Skyward Harp has been one of the most useful Standard Banner weapons compared to its peers, and remains a good weapon no matter how many patches arrive. This is because of it provides a hefty 22 percent CRIT Rate and 20 percent CRIT DMG.
The CRIT value it provides is invaluable, as it allows you to balance your CRIT ratio and gives you an easier time building her as a DPS. Other than that, there’s really nothing else to it, as its passive just deals a small instance of Physical DMG every few seconds.
Energy Recharge (30.6 percent)
The weapons from the Sacrificial series are a staple when it comes to support characters, as it can reset the cooldown of the wielder’s Elemental Skill after it deals DMG to an enemy. It also has Energy Recharge as its secondary stat, allowing the wielder to recover their Elemental Burst faster.
Almost all of Sigewinne’s support capability comes from her Elemental Skill, which releases a bubble that bounces between enemies, traps them, applies Hydro, and heals the entire team. Additionally, the cooldown reset allows Sigewinne to produce more Energy particles, which you’re able to get by casting Elemental Skills.
Only one Bolstering Bubblebalm created by Sigewinne can exist at a time, so casting another Skill after the cooldown reset will make the first bubble disappear prematurely.
To make the most out of this weapon, make sure not to use her Skill consecutively after you trigger the cooldown reset.
HP (46.9 percent)
One big advantage thatHP-scaling charactershave is that they don’t care about the Base ATK of their weapon since they want to have more HP. This is where the seemingly ‘useless’ Recurve Bow comes in, a three-star weapon that can provide a massive 46.9 percent HP increase to the wielder.
Aside from DMG and healing, Sigewinne can also buff your team based on her HP. After using her Elemental Skill, every 1,000 of Sigewinne’s Max HP over 30,000 will increase the Elemental Skill DMG of your off-field characters.
Since Sigewinne’s DMG, healing, and buff all scale off of HP, this weapon is a perfect free-to-play option for both her DPS and support playstyle. The huge HP percent that it provides is a great stat stick for everything that Sigewinne does.
Energy Recharge (61.3 percent)
Just like the Sacrificial Bow, the Favonius Warbow is another great and classic option for support characters (and most of the time, is the better one out of the two). It produces extra Elemental Particles every 12 seconds whenever the wielder lands a CRIT hit.
Favonius Warbow scales significantly above Sacrificial Bow because the generated Elemental Particles provide the same amount of Energy to all your characters compared to the latter, which only let you generate Hydro particles. This allows Sigewinne to only battery herself or other Hydro teammates, but the entire team, regardless of their element.
You’ll need to have a few CRIT Rate substats on your build to make the most out of this weapon’s passive.
Energy Recharge (55.1 percent)
Despite the existence of the Sacrificial and Favonius bows, Elegy for the End is by far the best support option when it comes to bows. It increases the entire team’s Elemental Mastery by one hundred, and ATK by 20 percent, allowing Sigewinne to buff your team even more.
The teamwide EM and ATK buff is perfect for teams with multiple DMG dealers, especially since Sigewinne thrives in a team with characters that deal off-field Elemental Skill DMG. Even if that’s not the case, the huge buffs that this weapon provide are also great for buffing a single main DPS if Sigewinne is taking more of a supportive role in your team.
CRIT DMG (88.2 percent)
Being another HP-scaling bow DPS character, Sigewinne can easily wieldYelan’s signature weapon, which is regarded as one of the strongest weapons in the game. This powerful bow boasts a massive 88.2 percent increase in CRIT DMG, making it extremely easy to achieve a good CRIT ratio and deal more DMG.
Additionally, it increases the wielder’s HP by 16 percent, something that Sigewinne’s entire kit will appreciate. It also increases the wielder’s DMG by 20 percent if any enemies are nearby, which is the absolute cherry on top if you want to use her as a DPS while also providing enough healing.
HP (66.2 percent)
Like all limited five-star characters, Sigewinne’s signature weapon is the best option you can give her if you want to maximize her performance. This bow provides a whopping 66.2 percent HP boost for her, which skyrockets her healing, DMG, and buffing capabilities.
Furthermore, her HP can be increased by an additional 12 percent/24 percent/40 percent after meeting certain requirements: one stack after using an Elemental Skill, one stack when she gains a Bond of Life, and one when she performs healing. When she has all three stacks, her Elemental Burst CRIT Rate will also increase by 28 percent, making it the perfect weapon for its rightful owner.
