Having joined the Genshin Impact roster in May 2021. Eula Lawrence the Spindrift Knight has created a name for herself as one of the best DPS characters in the roster for the niche play style of Physical DPS.
This unique gameplay makes Eula an interesting character with teams and builds that you wouldn’t otherwise consider using. This guide breaks down Eula’s best weapons, artifacts, and stats to focus on to make her the strongest she can be.
Eula: Best Stats & Artifacts
As a Physical DPS, Eula’s choices of Artifacts are narrowed down very specifically to essentially one artifact set — though you can couple it with a select few others if you struggle to get the 4-Piece set.
4-Piece Pale Flame
The Pale Flame set was essentially made for Eula, and it shows. The 2-Piece set increases Physical DMG Bonus by 25%, while the 4-Piece bonus will increase her ATK by 9% each time she hits her elemental skill, stacking up to 2 times. Once she gets the full amount of stacks, the Physical DMG Bonus from the 2-piece is increased to a total of 50% Physical DMG Bonus.
As mentioned before, this set is made for Eula, as her Grimheart buff from using her elemental skill also stacks to a maximum of 2. Additionally, the cooldown on her elemental skill is long enough that she will always gain a stack from this passive by using it.
2-Piece Pale Flame, 2-Piece Bloodstained Chivalry
If you’re struggling to get a 4-piece Pale Flame set that you are comfortable with and already have some decent Bloodstained Chivalry artifacts, it could be worth it to use this combination of artifacts instead. Both 2-Pieces offer a 25% Physical Dmg Bonus, meaning compared to the 4-Piece Pale Flame set, this set only loses out on 18% ATK. So, if the sub-stats are good enough, it could easily compare to or even outperform the 4-Piece Pale Flame set.
Best Sub-stats
As a Hypercarry DPS focused on using her Elemental Burst, Eula’s stat priority is similar to that of other characters such as Xiao or Arataki Itto.

In most cases, It’s ideal to aim for roughly a 1:2 Crit Ratio (50% Crit rate, 100% Crit DMG). Eula’s ascension stat is Crit DMG, so it may be more efficient to aim for a Crit Rate circlet.
Eula: Best 5-Star & 4-Star Weapons
Eula has a few good weapons that are rather easy to get even for free-to-play players, as well as her signature weapon that features alongside her banner.
5-Star Weapons: Song Of Broken Pines & Wolf’s Gravestone
Eula’s signature weapon at level 90, Song of Broken Pines, comes with an enormous Base ATK of 741 with a 20.7% Physical Damage Bonus sub-stat. The passive of the weapon provides an additional 16% ATK bonus. And, when Eula lands a normal or charged attack every 0.3 seconds, she will gain a Sigil of Whispers, and once she gains 4 of these sigils, her Normal ATK Speed will be increased by 12% and a further 20% ATK bonus. (This effect lasts 12 seconds, and she cannot gain any more sigils for the next 20 seconds after activating it).
Song of Broken Pines is Eula’s signature weapon and can only be obtained on weapon banners run beside Eula herself.
The Lightfall Sword damage in Eula’s Elemental Burst scales off of how many Normal Attacks and Elemental Skills she can land before the Lightfall Sword explodes; this makes the Normal ATK Speed of Eula’s weapon incredibly useful for her.
Wolf’s Gravestone is a Standard 5-Star Claymore. At Level 90, Wolf’s Gravestone comes with a Base ATK of 608 and an ATK% Sub-stat of 49.6%. The passive increases the users’ ATK by 20% and also increases all Party members’ ATK by 40% for 12 seconds after landing an attack on an opponent with less than 30% of their max HP.
The huge ATK Bonuses make Eula’s damage with Wolf’s Gravestone equal to that of her damage with Song of Broken Pines, but only when buffed by the Wolf’s Gravestone 40% ATK Passive.
As a standard 5-Star weapon, Wolf’s Gravestone is available on any weapon banner or even standard banner.
4-Star weapons: Serpent Spine & Snow-Tombed Starsilver
Serpent Spine is a Battle Pass reward weapon. At level 90, it has a Base ATK of 510 with a Sub-Stat of 27.6% Crit Rate, making it a nice stat crutch. The passive grants a 6% damage bonus every 4 seconds the character is on the field while also increasing their damage taken by 3%. This stacks up to 5 times (30% damage bonus, 15% damage taken increase) but will be reduced to 1 stack if the character takes damage. It will not lose the buff if the character goes off the field.
As a Hypercarry, Eula will spend most of her time on the field, meaning she will easily get this buff, and the Crit Rate stat crutch is well spent on her.
Serpent Spine can be obtained when a player who owns the Battle Pass reaches level 30, meaning Free-To-Play players won’t be able to get it at all.
Snow-Tombed Starsilver is a crafted weapon. At level 90, it has a Base ATK of 565 with a Physical DMG Bonus sub-stat of 34.5%. The Passive of the weapon has a 60% chance to drop an AoE on opponents when hit by a normal or charged attack, dealing 80% of the characters ATK as damage (or 200% if the opponent is affected by Cryo); this can only occur once every 10 seconds.
Eula’s Teams focus on using superconduct to shred physical resistance, meaning enemies will often be affected by Cryo, allowing her to get the most out of the passive while also benefiting from its useful Physical DMG Bonus sub-stat.
Snow-Tombed Starsilver can be obtained by crafting at any blacksmith once the player unlocks the recipe from the Dragonspine Quests.
Eula: Best Team Compositions
As a Hypercarry Character that caters to a very niche type of team and playstyle, Eula is fairly limited in terms of her teams, only benefiting from Superconduct teams and characters with Physical Resistance shred or buffs.
A typical Eula team consists of a Cryo applier and battery, such as Rosaria or Diona; An electro unit to trigger superconduct, such as Fischl or Raiden Shogun; and a Shielder or Healer to increase the team’s survivability, such as Zhongli, Diona, or Xinyan.
Rosaria, Zhongli, and Xinyan have effects that benefit Physical teams such as Eula by shredding Physical Resistances. However, Xinyan can be awkward to play with due to her Pyro damage interfering with Superconduct.
