Here is our list of the Best Swords in Genshin Impact. Find out which swords you should be using!
Genshin Impact includes an ever-expanding selection of swords with which you can equip your favorite characters. In Genshin Impact, weapons are much more than just their fundamental stats and perks. It all comes down to who wields them. While a sword’s ATK power is impressive, its secondary abilities may not be the best fit for any specific character in Genshin Impact.
However, some Genshin Impact swords are simply superior than others, performing well for a wide range of users. Keep in mind that the items in this list are not in any specific order. We’ll go over the best swords in the game right now, as well as how to obtain them. Since Genshin Impact is a gacha game, some of the weapons listed may only be available for a limited time, so check the weapons banner to see what’s available.
A star system is used to rank the power of weapons, characters, and artifacts in Genshin Impact. 1-star items are the least powerful and are usually solely used to gain experience for better items, whereas 5-star items are extremely powerful but extremely rare. It’s no wonder, then, that the game’s best sword is a 5-star sword.
