Genshin Impact Durin Build Guide

It's been a few days since Durin made his debut, and he has already made a massive impact in the current meta as the latest Pyro buffer. He is a 5-star Pyro unit from Mondstadt and has a unique dual playable stance that allows him to change between two forms. This also allows him to switch between the roles of buffer / Sub-Dps, which can alter the gameplay results of many battles. However, to make this unit most effective, you would need to pair him with the right teammates and weapons that can effectively utilize his utilities.

If you are still interested in this half-dragon, half-human, then you are at the right place. In the latter part of the Genshin Impact Durin Build Guide, we break down all the details that you would need to build Durin

Genshin Impact Durin Build Guide

As mentioned before, in the following part, we will break down everything that will be needed to build an optimum Durin Build.

Best Artifacts for Genshin Impact Durin Build

With his current Skill set and utilities, these two Artifact sets are his best option in Genshin Impact Luna III.

The Artifact Set is:

• Noblesse Oblige
• Emblem of Severed Fate

Noblesse Oblige

This is Durin’s BIS artifact set and a major reason why you should Pull Durin if you’re looking for a strong Burst-focused unit. Its 2-piece set bonus grants an Elemental Burst DMG bonus, while the 4-piece effect provides a team-wide ATK buff, making Durin valuable not just for damage but also for party support.

Emblem of Severed Fate

This is the second-best option for Durin, which provides the user with an Energy Recharge buff for the 2pc bonus, while the 4pc set bonus boosts the Elemental Burst DMG, which scales on the ER of the character.

Stats to prioritize during Durin's build:

• Sands: ATK%/ Elemental Mastery
• Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus
• Circlet: Crit Rate / Crit DMG
• Sub-Stats: Crit Rate / DMG, ATK%, Elemental Mastery

Best Weapon for Durin in Genshin Impact Luna III

Due to his unique kit, Durin would need weapons that would synergize well with his kit. That is why we have listed some of his best-in-slot options in the following part, which support his unique skills.

These weapons are:

• Athame Artis
• Primordial Jade Cutter
• Moonweaver's Dawn
• Lion's Roar

Athame Artis

This is Durin's signature weapon, which provides Crit Rate, Crit DMG, Elemental Burst bonus, and party-wide ATK boost. His signature weapon is currently the BIS for him.

Primordial Jade Cutter

Another 5-star sword with strong buffs and passives that work well with Durin's kit. This sword can provide a Crit Rate boost for the user, while the passive can provide a decent ATK buff.

Moonweaver's Dawn

This 4-star weapon provides a solid amount of Elemental Burst DMG, which works well with Durin’s kit. At refinement rank 5, it can even compete with a few 5-star options, making it a strong budget-friendly choice, especially in team setups similar to those discussed in Best Teams for Arlecchino in Genshin Impact Luna II, where Burst synergy matters.

Lion's Roar

Another 4-star sword that works quite well against foes who are affected by Pyro and Electro. If you are planning to use Durin in an Overload team, and you don't have any 5-star option, then go with this.

Some other options that you can use:

• Mistsplitter Reforged (5-star)
• Kagotsurube Isshin (4-star)

Durin's Talent Priority

Prioritize this order while upgrading his talents:

Elemental Burst> Elemental Skill> Normal ATK

Best Teams for Durin in Genshin Impact Luna III

Durin is quite versatile, and he fits easily in several comps, where his utilities can be fully utilised. These comps are:

1. Durin+ Venti+ Bennet+ Furina
2. Durin+ Arlecchino+ Fischl+ Chevreuse
3. Durin+ Klee+ Fischl_ Chevreuse

As mentioned before, Durin is a versatile unit and can be placed in various comps where he can support the whole team with various buffs, so you are free to explore other comps. But try to pair him with another Hexenzirkel unit that will activate the latest buff, which only works on selective old Mondstadt characters.
