Chiori finally makes her debut in Genshin Impact's 4.5 update as a 5-star Geo sword character. With a unique kit that blends off-field Geo damage with swift swordplay, Chiori stands out as both a main and sub DPS option for players seeking versatility in their teams. Players building Chiori should focus on typical offensive stats like Crit Rate/DMG, ATK, and DEF, with DEF being slightly more important due to her split scaling. Here's a guide to the best weapons for Chiori in Genshin Impact 4.5.
Top 5 Weapons for Chiori in Genshin 4.5
1. Uraku Misugiri
