Elemental Burst: Secret Art – Musou Shinsetsu
Raiden Shogun uses the Musou no Hitotachi and gives AoE Elector DMG, using Musou Isshin in battle for a certain time afterward.
The DMG given by Musou no Hitotachi and Musou Isshin’s hits is based on the number of Shogun Byakugen no Rin’s Resolve stacks eaten when the skill is used.
Artifacts
The best Raiden Shogun builds in Genshin Impact are those that utilize the Emblem of Severed Fate Artifact set, which gives a 20% Energy Recharge boost and improves Ei’s Elemental Burst damage by 25%.
