Best Team Compositions for Razor
When you play Genshin Impact everything depends not only on your main character but also on the composition. You should learn how elements complement each other and build the best team for your main. Below you can see the best team composition for Razor with two sub DPS characters and one support. Also, we have included alternative characters for each role that go well with Razor too.
Razor uses claymore that gives him the opportunity to deal a lot of damage with his normal attacks. With electro attacks he initiates Superconduct reaction but still, he deals more physical damage than elemental. Xingqiu is a good option for sub-DPS as he can easier apply Hydro reaction on enemies. Mika is a great support for Razor. He provides healing, Attack SPD buff, and Cryo reaction (but if you need extra protection, feel free to swap him for Diona). Fischl’s Oz applies electro to enemies and makes it easier for Razor to provoke Superconduct and let’s him focus on dealing physical damage. Moreover, together they trigger Electro Resonance.
Good characters for this comp: Ganyu, Kaeya, Rosaria, Lisa, Sucrose, Zhongli, Bennett, Qiqi, Diona, Barbara.
