Building a team around Raiden Shogun for maximum Overlord damage is all about maximizing her Electro damage and energy recharge, while also providing good support for your team. Here’s a breakdown of how to make her truly shine:
1. The Core: Raiden Shogun
- Weapon: Engulfing Lightning is the best-in-slot weapon for Raiden Shogun. Its passive boosts her Energy Recharge and Electro damage, maximizing her damage output. If you don’t have it, the Catch is a great alternative, also offering Energy Recharge and attack bonus.
- Artifacts: The 4-piece Emblem of Severed Fate set is essential for Raiden Shogun. This set drastically increases her Energy Recharge and boosts the damage of her burst, Overlord. For the goblet, choose Electro damage bonus.
- Talent Priorities: Level up her burst (Elemental Skill) first, followed by her Elemental Burst (Overlord). Her Normal Attack talent can be left at a lower level.
2. Supporting Cast
-
Sub-DPS & Electro Damage Amplifier: Fischl
-
Weapon: Stringless or any weapon that increases Elemental Mastery for more Electro damage.
-
Artifacts: 4-piece Thundersoother set is great for maximizing Electro damage.
-
Why Fischl: Fischl’s Oz provides constant Electro damage, triggering Electro-charged reactions with Raiden Shogun’s burst. This increases both the damage of Overlord and her overall damage output.
-
Healer and Shield Support: Kokomi
-
Weapon: Prototype Amber (best-in-slot) or any weapon that increases healing bonus or HP.
-
Artifacts: 4-piece Ocean-Hued Clam or 2-piece Ocean-Hued Clam and 2-piece Tenacity of the Millelith for healing and attack boost.

Why Kokomi: Kokomi’s burst provides consistent healing and Hydro application, allowing for Electro-charged reactions with Raiden Shogun’s burst. Her passive also boosts the damage of Electro characters, further amplifying Raiden Shogun’s damage output.
-
Energy Recharge Battery: Kazuha or Sucrose
-
Weapon: Iron Sting, Freedom Sworn, or any weapon that boosts Elemental Mastery.
-
Artifacts: 4-piece Viridescent Venerer set, 4-piece Emblem of Severed Fate, or 2-piece Viridescent Venerer and 2-piece Emblem of Severed Fate for energy recharge and damage boost.

- Raiden Shogun’s turn: Use her Elemental Skill and then her burst (Overlord) to unleash massive Electro damage.
Key Strategies
