How to Play Sayu

Last updated:

Overview

Sayu heals party members when her skill or burst triggers Swirl reactions. Build full EM for stronger Swirl healing and damage. Her skill rolls her into a ball for fast overworld movement. VV 4pc shreds RES of Swirled elements.

How to Play

Apply an element to enemies, then use Sayu's skill (roll) or burst (Daruma) to Swirl and heal. Hold skill for longer roll and more Swirl procs. Sayu works best in teams with consistent elemental application from Bennett, Xiangling, or Fischl.

Optimal Rotation

Bennett Burst, Xiangling Burst, Sayu Skill (roll through enemies), Sayu Burst, swap to DPS. Healing procs on each Swirl. For Yae: Sayu Skill, Yae Skill/Burst, Fischl Skill, healing on Electro Swirl.

F2P Options

Katsuragikiri Nagamasa or Favonius Greatsword for ER. VV set is farmable. Sayu is a 4★, C0 works as a healer in EM teams. Her overworld roll utility is unmatched for exploration.

Common Mistakes

Building ATK/CRIT over EM, Sayu's healing scales with EM. Swirling without an element applied, no heal procs. Using Sayu as a Main DPS, she's a healer/support. Not using hold skill for longer roll and more Swirl opportunities.
