Mizuki’s Role: Anemo DPS & Swirl Enabler
Mizuki is an Anemo Catalyst character who thrives on Swirl reactions! Her Elemental Burst pulls in enemies, then either deals Anemo DMG or heals based on the nearby party member’s HP. Activating her Elemental Skill puts her in Dreamdrifter state, where she auto-targets enemies, dealing continuous Anemo DMG. With high Elemental Mastery, she unleashes massive Swirl damage, making her a field-standing EM-scaling DPS!
Mizuki’s Talents Breakdown
Talents Priority
A = Normal Attack, E = Elemental Skill, Q = Elemental Burst
Priority recommendations are E > Q > A.
Mizuki’s E lets her stay on-field, continuously triggering Swirl while boosting its damage. Her Q delivers multiple Swirl hits or heals the nearby party member. Since both are key to her Swirl damage output, if you’re short on Crown of Insight, prioritize crowning E and level Q to 9!
Combat Rotation
E → Q
After casting E, immediately follow up with Q and stay on-field until the buff duration ends. During E, Mizuki moves continuously, so positioning is key—stay within range to maximize consistent damage. Mizuki’s rotation is beginner-friendly, but in multi-target scenarios, proper enemy grouping ensures optimal Swirl procs.
From her skill description, Mizuki relies on Swirl reactions as her main damage source. Her E keeps her on-field for extended Swirl DPS, while her Q provides healing for survivability and adds some extra damage.
(For full skill details, check out Genshin Impact Character Showcase: Yumemizuki Mizuki.)
※ Q should be used after E—this can sometimes trigger an extra Swirl reaction within the buff window, making it slightly higher priority (especially if the buff pickup is instant).
Constellation Pull Recommendations
-
C1: Every 3.5s, it boosts Swirl damage slightly, helping with single-target DPS.
-
C2: Increases Elemental damage for members based on Elemental Mastery, boosting off-field Elemental member’s' output.
-
C6: Swirl reactions can crit, with crit rate/damage fixed at 30%/100%, similar to Nahida's C2, increasing Swirl damage by 30%.
If possible, we recommend C6 + R1. After that, go for C2 + R1 > C2 + R0 > C1 + R0.
Best Weapon Choices for Mizuki
Elemental Mastery Weapons
-
Sunny Morning Sleep-In: Provides huge Elemental Mastery, with R1 offering a full 513 EM. While it’s the most fitting weapon for Mizuki, her constellations provide even greater boosts.
-
A Thousand Floating Dreams: High Elemental Mastery + damage bonus. If you have other Anemo characters, it boosts 32 EM; for other element members, it increases damage by 10%.
-
Starcaller's Watch: Offers high Elemental Mastery and works best with shield-providing members.
Since Mizuki's weapon, Sunny Morning Sleep-In, may not be added to Standard Wishes in the future. Check out our LDShop Genshin top up here to get Mizuki's Primogems boost! Travelers who want to pull for it should not miss out!
For 4-star weapons, options like Sacrificial Fragments, Wandering Evenstar, and The Widsith are all solid choices—Elemental Mastery weapons are ideal!
Energy Recharge Weapons
Waveriding Whirl, Hakushin Ring, Favonius Codex, and Fruit of Fulfillment are all viable choices.
When Mizuki is the only Anemo character in your team, focusing on Energy Recharge can help ensure her Elemental Burst is up more frequently, allowing for more Swirl triggers or providing healing for teammates.
Which is the Best Artifact?
Best-suited Artifact Set
-
2-Piece Set: Anemo DMG Bonus +15%
-
4-Piece Set: Increases Swirl DMG by 60%. Decreases opponent's Elemental RES to the element infused in the Swirl by 40% for 10s.
The key is the 4-piece set effect, which boosts Mizuki's Swirl damage by 60%, stacking with her Elemental Skill damage bonus. It also reduces enemy resistance to Pyro, Hydro, Electro, or Cryo Swirls by 40%, making it the BEST option for her!
Other Suitable Artifact Sets
The 4-piece set of Gilded Dreams provides high Elemental Mastery. Next, the 2-piece + 2-piece Mastery sets are an option, but their effect is relatively modest.
Best Team Comps for Mizuki
Electro-Charged Team
-
Main DPS: Yumemizuki Mizuki
-
Sub DPS: Furina & Ororon
-
Support: Fischl or Yae Miko / Sucrose
Hydro and Electro elements can coexist, allowing for continuous Hydro-Electro Swirl reactions with off-field Electro and Hydro characters. Opt for high-damage Hydro and Electro backline characters. You can also consider adding Fischl and Yae Miko to the team.
If you choose Sucrose, she can group enemies and further boost Elemental Mastery, increasing Swirl damage. This makes the team’s overall output smooth, and it performs excellently in multi-target scenarios.
Multi-Element Swirl Team
-
Main DPS: Yumemizuki Mizuki
-
Sub DPS: Mavuika
-
Support: Furina
-
Shielder: Citlali
This team focuses on Mavuika and Furina's off-field damage, combined with Mizuki's on-field Swirl damage. Citlali provides shields and interruption resistance, ensuring Mizuki’s output environment remains stable. Additionally, Mizuki's Elemental Burst healing can synergize with Furina's Burst to quickly boost damage and enhance the off-field damage of Mavuika and Furina.
※ Keep up with Mavuika and Citlali's off-field damage.
F2P Team Comp Playstyle
-
Electro-Charged Team: You can refer to the team with Ororon, Fischl, and Sucrose. While triggering Electro-Charged reactions, it also delivers excellent Swirl damage.
-
Frozen Team: Kaeya and Mona apply Cryo and Hydro, setting up Frozen reactions to control enemies. Meanwhile, Mizuki enhances damage by Swirling Cryo and Hydro, and Diona provides shields and healing, ensuring the team's survivability.
