Amber Quick TL;DR Support Build Guide

UPDATED FOR 1.5 😁!

PSA #1: Supports are the stage workers. Their jobs are to make the DPS shine in the spotlight. If you mess up, they may potentially die, so don’t mess up (I’m looking at you Amber) >:(

PSA #2: Both Amber’s abilities scale off ATK. Yeah… honestly I have zero idea why I’m making this guide for her since like 0.00001% of the community use her, but she’s trying her best guys. At least she’s the best lighter Genshin NA

Amber never gets taken out on adventures, so she literally throws out a puppet to talk to herself. It’s so annoying that enemies want to kill it. IF IT DIES OR TIMER RUNS OUT, IT EXPLODES

Her puppet scales off HP, but honestly you just want it to die faster so you can get a pyro proc out, so don’t worry about building HP

Shoots a volley of fiery arrows in a small AoE. Honestly it’s lackluster and it’s just meant to proc pyro consistently. Why did they make her so useless…

It is HIGHLY recommended that you pair this with a taunting ability (like Amber’s E), as the radius of the ability is fairly small and enemies can simply walk out of it

Q gets a bigger AoE and an additional 10% CRIT%. Seriously guys, why are you reading this
If you shoot someone in their weak spot, Amber decides to show no mercy and just does more damage

Take advantage of this free ATK buff by landing a shot on an enemy’s weak point before you use your abilities when swapped to Amber

Talent Leveling Order: Q > E > Normal

WEAPON #1 (Recommended for a desperate Support): The Stringless

How do I get it D: ? – It’s time to roll boys (gacha)

Has base Elemental Mastery scaling and makes her E and Q hurt more

Sacrificial Bow and Favonious Warbow are also excellent alternatives, but you shouldn’t be struggling to get Amber’s Q due to it’s extremely low 40 cost

WEAPONS #2 (Recommended for early Support): Slingshot

How do I get it D: ? – It’s time to roll boys (gacha)

Has base CRIT% scaling and great for scaling Amber’s damage early

Essentially, when you swap to Amber, use a Charged attack (or even a normal attack is fine) to hit a weak point to receive 15% from her passive + 60% from Slingshot, then use her abilities

Alternatively, Raven Bow is also not a shabby placeholder either

ARTIFACT #1 (Recommended for a desperate support): Noblesse Oblige

How do I get it D: ? – Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern Domain (AR 35 locked, 20 Resin per run)

Just press Q and swap. She’s served her purpose of buffing the team. Less screen time Amber has the less hope she has of being good

If someone is already running 4-set Noblesse Oblige, just run 2-set Noblesse + 2-set Crimson

ARTIFACT #2 (Recommended for early assistance): The Exile

How do I get it D: ? – Confront Stormterror Domain (60 Resin per run) or steal some chests

It’s great because Amber’s Q has a really low CD and the set’s uptime is practically 100%

You can run Instructor on her as well for additional elemental mastery buffs for your team!

PSA #4: As much as she’s bullied, there is an extremely meme C1 DPS Amber build that’s focused on her charged attack. You can use Royal Bow or Amos’ Bow for the weapon, and run 2-set Berserker + any 2-set 18% ATK+ set. It’s not exactly viable, but it’s fun to play

Main stats:

SandsGobletCirclet
ATK%Pyro DMG%CRIT% or CRIT DMG

Substats: CRIT% > CRIT DMG > ATK > EM

If you want other characters let me know. Hope this helped. Bye.

I spend too much time filling out spreadsheets for incoherent data, but at least I can turn them into guides :P
