Skirk Genshin Impact build guide: Artifacts, weapons, and more

Skirk is a 5-star Cryo Main DPS in Genshin Impact that has a unique playstyle with a focus on Normal and Charged Attacks. She is best utilized in Freeze teams and has two different Elemental Bursts depending on her form.

To make Skirk into a monster DPS for your account, having the right build is absolutely essential. This article provides a brief and precise rundown on the best Skirk build in Genshin Impact.

Skirk Best Artifacts in Genshin Impact

Skirk best artifacts

Skirk’s best Artifacts are Finale of the Deep Galleries and Marechaussee Hunter. The former is the best option generally as it is an artifact set tailored for Skirk’s kit.

However, Marechaussee Hunter performs slightly better in Furina teams. If you want to use Skirk permanently with Furina, opt for Marechaussee. Otherwise, FotDG is the safer choice to use on Skirk.

Skirk Artifact stats, substats and Talent priority in Genshin Impact

Skirk’s recommended Artifact stats and substats in Genshin Impact are very straightforward as she doesn’t need any Elemental Mastery and Energy Recharge. Focus on getting the follow stats for Skirk’s Artifacts:

  • Sands: ATK%
  • Goblet: Cryo DMG %
  • Circlet: CRIT Rate/DMG

Substat priority: CRIT Rate/DMG > ATK% > ATK

For Skirk’s talent priority, the following order is the most optimal:

Elemental Skill > Elemental Burst > Normal Attack

Skirk Best Weapons in Genshin Impact

Azurelight Genshin Impact

Here are some of Skirk’s best weapons in Genshin Impact:

  • Azurelight (Signature Weapon)
  • Haran Geppaku Futsu
  • Absolution
  • Primordial Jade Cutter
  • Uraku Misugiri
  • Mistsplitter Reforged
  • The Black Sword
  • Finale of the Deep
  • Wolf-Fang
  • Calamity of Eshu

Azurelight is easily Skirk’s best weapon in Genshin Impact as it is her signature. If you can’t afford to pull for Skirk and her weapon, 5-star stat sticks like Absolution, Uraku Misugiri, and Mistplitter Reforged are good options.

Haran Geppaku Futsu is the second best weapon on her as it provides a large amount of Normal Attack DMG bonus. For F2P players, Finale of the Deep, Wolf-Fang and The Black Sword are the best 4-star weapons on Skirk.

Calamity of Eshu is another incredibly potent 4-star weapon but it is not obtainable anymore as it was part of the 5.2 Limited Event.
