To boost Wriothesley's damage, you'll want to focus on upgrading his Normal Attack and Elemental Skill first.

Wriothesley Talent Priority

Normal Attack

★★★★★ Level 9+

Elemental Skill

★★★★★ Level 9+

Elemental Burst

★★★ Level 6+

Wriothesley’s damage really lives and dies on his Normal Attack and Charged Attack, so those are the first things worth maxing out. At the same time, you should also upgrade his elemental skill as it greatly enhances the former. His Elemental Burst, while useful, doesn’t define his gameplay as much, so it can comfortably be left for last.

Best Weapons for Wriothesley

Here are Wriothesley’s best weapons (Quick Recommendations):

• Best-in-slot: Cashflow Supervision
• Second-best: Tullaytulah's Remembrance
• Best 4-star alternative: The Widsith, Flow Purity, Solar Pearl

Cashflow Supervision

Cashflow Supervision

Rank

5-STAR

Base ATK

674

CRIT Rate

22.1%

ATK is increased by 16%. When HP changes, it boosts Normal, Charged, and Stellar-Conduct DMG for a short duration, stacking up to 3 times. At max stacks, it also grants an 8% ATK SPD bonus.

This is Wriothesley’s best-in-slot and signature weapon. It provides CRIT Rate, ATK, Normal Attack, Charged Attack, Stellar-Conduct damage, and ATK Speed.

Note, though, that if you’re using Blizzard Strayer or Marechaussee Hunter, you may struggle to manage your CRIT Rate.

Tullaytulah's Remembrance

Tulaytullah's Remembrance

Rank

5-STAR

Base ATK

674

CRIT DMG

44.1%

Normal Attack SPD is increased by 10%. After using an Elemental Skill, Normal Attack DMG gradually increases over 14 seconds, stacking further when Normal Attacks hit enemies. The effect can trigger frequently, has a maximum damage cap of 48%, and resets when the wielder leaves the field or reuses the Elemental Skill.

An extremely good alternative mainly due to normal attack speed and damage increase that no other 5-star weapons have.

The Widsith

The Widsith

Rank

4-STAR

Base ATK

510

CRIT DMG

55.1%

When the character enters the field, they gain a random buff for 10s (triggerable every 30s): either increased ATK, increased All Elemental DMG, or increased Elemental Mastery.

Arguably the best 4-star weapon for Wriothesley, as its ATK, Elemental Damage, and Elemental Mastery boosts all directly improve his damage.

Flowing Purity

Flowing Purity

Rank

4-STAR

Base ATK

565

ATK %

27.6%

Using an Elemental Skill increases All Elemental DMG Bonus by 8% for 15s and applies a Bond of Life equal to 24% of Max HP (triggerable every 10s). When the Bond is cleared, it further grants up to 12% additional Elemental DMG Bonus based on HP restored, also lasting 15s.

Great weapon for stacking ATK stats.

Solar Pearl

Solar Pearl

Rank

4-STAR

Base ATK

510

CRIT Rate

27.6%

Normal Attack hits increase Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 20% for 6s. Likewise, Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst hits increase Normal Attack DMG by 20% for 6s.

If you're still in need of crit rate, you can opt for Solar Pearl that not only provides crit rate, but skill damage boost as well.

Best Artifacts for Wriothesley

Here are the best Artifact sets for Wriothesley based on his team comp:

• Overall best: Marechaussee Hunter
• Best Stellar-conduct set: Disenchantment of the Shadow
• Best set for Freeze teams: Blizzard Strayer

Marechaussee Hunter

Marechaussee Hunter

Rank

5-STAR

2-piece bonus increases Normal and Charged Attack DMG by 15%. The 4-piece bonus increases CRIT Rate by 12% for 5s whenever HP changes, stacking up to 3 times.

Still remains as Wriothesley's best artifact set as it allows Wriothesley to get NA/CA damage buff and comfortably get tons of Crit rate, thanks to his HP fluctuation mechanic.

Disenchantment of the Shadow

Disenchantment in Deep Shadow

Rank

5-STAR

2-piece set increases ATK by 18%. The 4-piece set boosts Superconduct and Stellar-Conduct reaction damage and increases CRIT Rate when attacking enemies affected by those reactions.

Since Wriothesley can now deal Stellar-Conduct damage, this set becomes a viable option to farm for him. However, he still lacks consistent Snezhnaya teammates to enable the Stellar-Conduct reaction, aside from Sandrone.

Blizzard Strayer

Blizzard Strayer

Rank

5-STAR

2-piece set increases Cryo DMG Bonus by 15%. The 4-piece set boosts CRIT Rate when attacking Cryo-affected enemies, with an even higher bonus against Frozen enemies.

Best artifact set if you're in a Freeze team, as you need this status to maintain the 4-piece set effects.
