For Genshin Prune build, players must prioritize upgrading her elemental skill.
| Talent | Prune talent Priority | Recommended level |
| Normal Attack | ★ ★ | 2+ |
| Elemental Skill | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 10+ |
| Elemental Burst | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 10+ |
Prune's mainly an off-field sub-DPS, so you can ignore her normal attack, unless you want to use her on-field as well. Instead of her normal, prioritize upgrading her elemental skill and elemental burst, as these are her main sources of damage. Doing so increases the damage multipliers of these attacks, which then translates to a higher damage output.
Here are Prune’s best weapons (Quick Recommendations):

Free weapon (for players who have finished the event) and a good stat stick.
One of the best F2P catalysts due to its ATK and energy recharge stats.
