Best Weapons

by calculated performance

Blazing Brilliance

R1Best

Electro Rover mostly deals Skill DMG, meaning Changli's Signature weapon, also being focused on Skill DMG, gives them the best amount of personal damage they can get.

Red Spring

As Electro Rover also deals a decent amount of Basic DMG, Red Spring is a good choice although not the best one on them.

ATK, DMG Bonus and CRIT Rate stat-stick for Electro Rover, who does not benefit from this weapon's Havoc Bane-related effects.

90.4%

Everbright Polestar

ATK, DMG Bonus and CRIT Rate stat-stick for Electro Rover, who does not benefit from this weapon's Tune Rupture/Fusion Burst-related effects.

90.4%
