Dory's abilities

Dory's skills are focused on supporting, healing and dealing Electro damage. The strength of the treatment depends on its max. HP, and damage from the Attack Power indicator. Interestingly, Dory's base values ​​for both of these stats are quite high, as for a 4⭐️ character, and the awakening stat is the HP bonus.

Basic skills (active skills)

When charged, performs a spinning attack that constantly consumes energy and empowers the final blow. Fall attack is standard for two-handed weapons - strikes an area with physical damage.

In addition, when the link between the genie and the character touches the enemy, it is every 0.4 seconds. deals one Electro damage to him.

The order of pumping

If you pump Dory as the main DD or have c6, then it is desirable evenly upgrade all skills. Otherwise, prioritize pumping elemental explosion, and then elemental skill, and skip the auto-attack.

Passive skills

Constellations

Recommended Constellations for Dory - С4 и С6.

• If all that is required of Dory is heal and fill energy (which is quite the case), useful constellations are the 3rd, which increases the level of the ult, and the 4th.

Best Dory builds in Genshin Impact

Dory has a very high base HP for a 4⭐️ character. In addition, an additional stat is the HP% Bonus, which, coupled with several “unsuccessful” HP% rolls in arts, will easily give more than 20k health. Given the excellent regeneration scales, this is quite enough, and if you need this character to deal damage, you can otherwise collect attack power and crits. Also an important stat is energy recovery, it is desirable to gain more than 200% if Dory is used as a battery: for every 100%, Dory restores 5 units to herself. energy thanks to the passive talent.

Best weapon

Dory's weapons should match the chosen play style:

• For a pure support, it is recommended to look for claymores with energy recovery and passive effects that give buffs to the squad.
• Attack power, crit balance and elemental mastery (if Dory closes reactions) also become important for sup-dds.

High basic attack and energy recovery in the second stat. The passive increases damage, and also, after activating the ult, launches phantom blades with each attack. Although without C6, hitting from hand for Dory is not very relevant.

The Inspire effect can occur once every 15 sec. The character receives Symbols of Fortitude even if he is not on the battlefield. The passive effect will not bring any practical benefit, but the sword is suitable for the role of a healer, increasing the maximum health reserve from the main characteristic.

While protected by a shield, increases the character's damage by 12%~24%. Surprisingly, but the weapon will suit the Dory healer well due to the main stat in the form of HP. But it is worth noting that the sword is still not very good due to a useless passive effect.

Best Artifacts

Artifacts on Dori should be selected based on the following parameters:

• Healing bonuses;
• elemental damage;
• Bonuses and buffs for the squad;
• Elemental Mastery if you're playing from Vegetation.

Among the kits we recommend to pay attention to the following:

number	Name	Set	Rarity	Passive Effects

Aggravate reaction damage is increased by 20%. When these reactions are activated, as well as the Stimulate reaction, the cooldown time of the elemental skill is reduced by 1 second. The effect can occur no more than 1 time per 0.8 sec. A wonderful set for both support dd and main electro dd: Electro damage bonus, strong reactions, rolls back the skill.
2	Noblesse Oblige		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts: Increases elemental explosion damage by 20%. 4 parts: Activating an elemental explosion increases the attack power of all party members by 20% for 12 seconds. The effect does not stack. A universally useful set, especially if no one else in the group wears it.
3	Paradise lost flower		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts:  Gives 80 pts. mastery of the elements. 4 parts:  Increases the damage dealt by Budding, Vegetation, and Bloom by 40% on the character equipped with this set. If the carrier causes these reactions on its own, the effect will increase by another 25%. Each summation lasts 10 seconds. The effect stacks up to 4 times, occurs once every 1 seconds, and activates even if the character is not active. A great and stable option if Dory is playing through Vegetation with Dendro and Hydro characters. By creating a link between the genie and the active hero, he can call projectiles without being on the battlefield.
4	Gilded Dreams		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts: Gives 80 pts. mastery of the elements. 4 parts: For 8 sec. after calling an elemental reaction according to the elements of other characters in the squad, the equipped character receives the following buffs: - Attack power is increased by 14% for each character with the same element. - Elemental Mastery increased by 50. for each character with a different element. Each of these buffs counts up to 3 characters. The effect can occur once every 8 sec. and triggers even if the equipped character is not on the battlefield. New set. Pretty good and versatile, as it allows you to effectively play through reactions, including with Dendro.
5	Mollusk of sea colors		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts: Gives 15% healing bonus 4 parts: When healing allies, the owner of the kit creates a Bubble of Nautical Ink that records the healing statistics (even when the accumulation of health points is excessive when the target has maximum HP). When it expires, the Bubble explodes, dealing 90% damage (including potential) of HP restored to enemies. The Bubble appears no more than once every 3,5 seconds, and its damage is calculated according to the effects of Charged and Superconductor, but cannot be enhanced by elemental mastery, a level bonus, or other reactions. Good healing bonus and passive bubble damage. A good set for a full healer.
6	Song of old times		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts: Increases healing bonus by 15%. 4 parts: Equipped character when healing squad members for 6 sec. creates an Aspiration effect that registers the treatment performed (including excess). When the duration ends, Endeavor turns into Waves of the Old Time: When your active character hits an enemy with a Normal Attack, Charged Attack, Falling Attack, Elemental Skill, or Elemental Burst, the damage dealt is increased by 8% of the total amount of healing registered by Endeavor. After 5 activations or after 10 sec. the effect of the Waves of those times disappears. A one-time effect of Aspiration registers up to 15 units. HP. This effect activates even if the equipped character is not on the battlefield. During her ultimate, the heroine provides a significant amount of healing, which the set’s passive converts into a damage buff for the active character.
7	Emblem of Severed Fate		⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	2 parts: Gives 20% energy recovery 4 parts: Increases elemental explosion damage by an amount equal to 25% of the amount of energy regeneration. The effect can be increased to a maximum of 75%. You can use this set to increase the regeneration of Dory's expensive ultimate. But the explosion of the elements itself does not do much damage, so it is better to give preference to the 2nd parts.

Composition of the squad for Dory

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Keqing	electro	Sword	Keqing likes to play in tandem with other electro characters, for better pumping of energy.
Cyno	electro	A spear	Electro dd, playing from reactions and ults. Pumping energy from Dory will not be superfluous to him.
Fischl	electro	Bow	A great sup-dd that goes well with most heroes.
Beidou	electro	Two-handed sword	Another strong sup-dd from Electro. He will join the group both as a support and as the main damage dealer.
Sarah	electro	Bow	An electro support that buffs attack power. It can form a "support" pair with Electro, or maybe support her as the main damage dealer.
Yae Miko	electro	Catalyst	Yae will be happy with both the treatment and the energizing from Dori.
Kazuha	Anemo	Sword	If there is room in the group, and the group itself deals mainly elemental damage, Kazuha will be a great addition.
Sucrose	Anemo	Catalyst	Kazuha's alternative. Although sometimes it can show itself even better.
Heizo	Anemo	Catalyst	Good anime driver. It is quite possible to have a group of this type.
Xiao	Anemo	A spear	Xiao is always happy with an extra source of energy, and he really needs a heal.
Zhongli	Geo	A spear	In theory, Dory's heal is more than enough for the survival of the group. But Zhongli's shield is useful not only for protection, but also for cutting resistances. Yes, and hyper-armor will not be superfluous.
Albedo	Geo	Sword	Just sup-dd, which will easily fit into any group. In addition, skill fills, which is important for electro characters.
Xingqiu	Hydro	Sword	Powerful Hydro sup-dd. Under the reaction charged is very good.
Ye Lan	Hydro	Bow	The 5* version of Xingqiu also does good damage on its own.
Xiangling	Pyro	A spear	Elemental explosion with huge damage and the same large attack radius.
Bennett	Pyro	Sword	Strongest attack buff. Even if you don't need Dory's damage, the rest of the group can benefit from this buff.
Eola	Cryo	Two-handed weapon	True physical damage in the game. Plays with ult. Will be happy with both the heal from Dory, and the restoration of energy and Electro status for the Superconductor.
Collei	Dendro	Bow	Dendro-buffer under the reaction of Catalysis.
Nahida	Dendro	Catalyst	Strong Dendro status for 25 seconds and increased reaction damage.
Tignari	Dendro	Bow	A good main DD in groups from the reactions of Catalysis and Propagation.

Group examples

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features
Cyno	Nahida	ZhongliKazuha	Dory	Dory fits perfectly into any Dendro + Electro team as an assistant to call the Aggravation reaction. In the squad with Nahida and Saino, she is the 2nd Electro character, allowing you to get the shortest possible interval for Trikarma Purification (Nahida's elemental skill). She also heals and fills with energy. On the remaining slot, you can put Zhongli for a shield and cutting resistances, or Kazuha, who with the help of Dory can inflate Electro.
Cyno	Dendro gg	Xingqiu	Dory	Alternate build with Saino through Vegetation. Under the swords (ulta) Xingqiu and Dendro status creates homing projectiles. Unlike the previous group, elemental mastery is important here.  Dendro Traveler can be replaced with any other hero of this element if available.
Nahida	Kokomi	Collei	Dory	Dory is also capable of causing the Vegetation reaction: we hit Dendro with Hydro status, and then turn them into projectiles with Electro. This build requires Dory to be assembled through Elemental Mastery. Her healing will suffer a little, but this can be compensated by another healer.
AyatoTartaglia	Dory	Dendro gg	Sucrose	Squad through the Vegetation, where Sucrose pulls the Dendro cores into a pile, gives a bonus to elemental mastery, and then Dory, using the binding of the ult and Ayato under the Dendro status, turn the buds into homing projectiles.
Yae Miko	Dory	Nahida	Kazuha	Command through Escalation. Yae Miko acts as the main damage dealer, Dori heals and helps her replenish her energy. Nahida casts Dendro and Kazuha inflates Electro and grants an elemental damage bonus. In this build, it is recommended to apply Electro first and inflate it with Kazuha so that Nahida does not interrupt the status.
Keqing	Nahida	Kazuha	Dory	We replenish Keqing energy as quickly as possible. Kazuha and Nahida burst for elemental damage. Keqing - Deals basic damage and performs the Aggravate reaction.
Dory	Ye Lan Xingqiu	Xiangling	Sucrose	The group under the basis of Dory, where she takes the position of the main DD. The remaining members of the squad perform the functions of support and sapp-dd: Sucrose for inflating, screeding and a buff for skill. Xiangling for Overload. Ye Lan/Xingqiu for reaction Charged.
Dory	Fischl Beidou	Xingqiu Ye Lan	Kazuha	Dory is also the base here, but already the emphasis is on Electro damage, so Kazuha becomes more relevant than Sucrose.
Heizou	Xingqiu Ye Lan	Sarah	Dory	A group with Heizo and Dori's driver for Electro Status. Squad Rotation: Buff with Sarah's skill. We hand over the explosions of the elements of Xingqiu and Dori. We activate Sarah's ult and dispel all this Heizo.
Xiao	Sahara	Xiangling	Dory	Thanks to Dory with energy, Xiao should be doing well. We contract and dissipate Electro and Pyro elements with Sucrose. Xiangling is needed for Pyro status, extra damage.
Yae miko	Xiangling	Kazuha	Dory	Dori and Yae pour a lot of energy into each other, which allows them to ult often. Kazuha floods elemental damage and dispels Electro and Pyro. Xiangling is a good secondary damage.
Eola	Bennett	Raiden	Dory	A group through physical damage, where Eola's damage is accelerated to the maximum, thanks to the Superconductor and buffs from Bennett (without C6).

How to play Dory

Consider the principles of the game in various roles:

• If you use Dory exclusively as sickle and battery, her ult becomes her main skill. The skill is used only when necessary to pump up the energy of Dory herself.
• When playing for sup-dd (without c6) we use the skill when ready, since in such an assembly it already does some kind of damage. But spheres of energy can be given to other characters.

In the presence of c6 or when playing as Dory as the basis, after activating the skill, we spam auto-attacks. Thus, we will inflict damage and restore health to allies. Availability Sacrificial Greatsword and recruitment Loud roar of rage will allow you to use the elemental skill much more often.

Сonclusion

Dory is an Electro heal and an all-round battery, and overall quite unique. Can perform as any individual role in the group, and all at once. The character will expand the variety of teams for veterans and can be a great base for newcomers.
