Players of Genshin Impact can test their luck with Hu Tao for the next three weeks. Her banner called "Moment of Bloom" has finally appeared, along with worthy four-star support characters like Thoma, Sayu, and Diona.

In this guide, we will delve a little deeper into the build of this character, specifically: which characters to pair with Hu Tao, which talents to prioritize, and which artifacts to enhance. You can find the detailed main build, which includes options for sets and weapons, in this guide.

How to Make Hu Tao the Most Powerful Main DPS in Genshin Impact

Hu Tao possesses excellent damage buffs and the Pyro element, capable of triggering powerful reactions such as Vaporize and Burn.

Prioritizing Hu Tao's Talent Leveling in Genshin Impact

If you want to make Hu Tao a formidable Pyro DPS, prioritize leveling all talents to level 6, and then focus on her Elemental Skill (E) and Elemental Burst (Q).

Best Artifact Set for Hu Tao in Genshin Impact

Undoubtedly, the best set for Hu Tao is the Crimson Witch of Flames. Two pieces provide a 15% bonus to Pyro damage, while a 4-piece set significantly increases damage from elemental reactions with Pyro.

What Stats to Choose for Hu Tao's Artifacts?

We recommend prioritizing Elemental Mastery up to 100, as it will increase the damage dealt by her Elemental Skill (E). After that, it depends on your weapon's passive ability and stats. In any case, the final results should be approximately as follows:

• Critical Damage: 150/200, Critical Hit Rate: at least 80/100. The higher the rate, the better.
• For the Hourglass artifact, prioritize HP; for the Goblet, prioritize Pyro damage; and for the Circlet, prioritize Critical Damage/Hit Rate (depending on the weapon).

Team Compositions for Hu Tao in Genshin Impact

Hu Tao should naturally be placed in a team where she can constantly trigger elemental reactions. Xingqiu is undoubtedly the best character for this purpose. Any team with Hu Tao should include Xingqiu because he is the only support character off-field who can help with continuous damage from Vaporize.

You can also add someone like Sucrose or Kazuha to amplify Elemental Reactions, or include a Cryo squad member to trigger Melt reactions. If you want to deal incredible damage with Hu Tao's Elemental Burst, we recommend adding Mona and Bennett to the team, as they undoubtedly buff her with their Elemental Burst (Q).
