Dori Genshin Impact Guide: Best Builds, Teams & Playstyle

Dori is a 4-star Electro Claymore character from Sumeru. She serves multiple roles in Genshin Impact: healer, energy generator, and Electro applicator. She runs a shop under the name "Lord Sangemah Bay" and sells rare items, but her prices are always high.

Although she appears to focus on Mora, her real strength is in her steady healing and Energy regeneration. This makes her a practical choice for many team setups. To get resources to level up Dori, get weapons, and unlock artifacts, you can use a Genshin Impact Top Up.

Dori's three Main Functions

Healing

Dori's healing amount depends on Dori's max HP. Unlike other healers, Dori's healing still works when Dori is not on the field. As long as her Jinni (the lamp spirit) is connected to you, healing continues.

Energy Generation

Dori's Burst also gives Energy for your active character. This helps your main DPS get the Elemental Burst faster. The Energy generated depends on Dori's Energy Recharge stat.

Electro Application

Dori applies Electro through her Burst connection. This happens every 0.4 seconds. The Electro application has a 3-second cooldown. Although she is not the fastest Electro applicator, her consistent application works well in specific team compositions.

Dori's Abilities

Normal Attacks & Charged Attacks

Dori's Normal Attacks perform up to three strikes. Her Charged Attack spins continuously but uses stamina.

Before C6, avoid using Normal Attacks for damage. Because after C6, her Normal Attacks become Electro-infused for 3 seconds after using her Skill. This makes them useful for Aggravate teams.

Elemental Skill: Spirit-Warding Lamp

Dori's Skill fires shots that deal Electro damage. Each shot creates two tracking projectiles. At Constellation 1, this increases to three projectiles. When reactions happen near her active character, the skill cooldown will decrease.

Elemental Burst: Alcazarzaray's Exactitude

Dori's Burst summons a Jinni that connects to your active character. This connection provides continuous healing, energy regeneration and electro application.

The connection lasts 15 seconds and costs 80 Energy. While connected, the Jinni causes Electro damage when it touches enemies.

Important Stats Need to Focus On

1. Energy Recharge (ER): Most important stat. Target:

180-220% ER without Favonius Greatsword

160-180% ER with Favonius Greatsword

Lower ER if you have Raiden or Fischl in your team

2. HP%: Increases healing output

3. Elemental Mastery: Boosts reaction damage in Hyperbloom/Aggravate teams

Dori's Constellations

Dori has six Constellations. These are the most important:

Constellation 1

Increases tracking projectiles from Skill by one. This improves the Electro application.

Constellation 2

Adds extra Electro damage when healing. Provides three additional Electro applications.

Constellation 4

Gives connected character: 50% increased healing when HP is below 50%; 30% Energy Recharge when Energy is below 50%

Constellation 6

The most important Constellation. After using Skill, Dori's Normal Attacks become Electro-infused for 3 seconds. This allows her to drive Aggravate reactions. Also adds team healing on Normal Attacks.

Without C6, Dori works well as a support. With C6, she can cause more damage.

Team Compositions with Dori

Hyperbloom Team with Jean

Dori: Adds Electro and heals the team

Jean: Adds Anemo and causes Swirls

Hydro character (Xingqiu/Yelan): Applies Hydro to make Dendro Cores

Dendro character (Nahida/Collei): Applies Dendro to make Dendro Cores

How it works:

• Dori’s Burst puts Electro on the active character

• Jean’s Burst puts Anemo on the active character

• This combo creates constant Electro Swirls around the character

• Hydro + Dendro create Dendro Cores

• Swirls from Jean instantly trigger those cores as Hyperblooms

Aggravate Team with C6 Dori

C6 Dori: Uses Normal Attacks to trigger Aggravate

Electro character (Fischl/Yae Miko): Deals damage from the back

Dendro character (Nahida): Applies Dendro to enable reactions

Anemo character (Kazuha/Sucrose): Spreads reactions and adds buffs

How it works:

• Dori uses her Skill (E)

• Then she does two Normal Attacks (N2)

• Dashes (D) to reset her attack timer

• She does two more Normal Attacks (N2)

• Her attacks apply Electro and cause Aggravate

• The Anemo character spreads the reaction to more enemies

• Fischl or Yae adds extra Electro damage

For this team, build Dori with Elemental Mastery and Critical Rate. Aim for 160-180% Energy Recharge.

Tips for Using Dori Effectively

1. Keep your active character near Dori's Jinni for continuous effects.

2. Use Dori's Burst when your main DPS needs Energy or healing.

3. For C6 players, Master the E N2 D N2 combo to maximize Electro application.

4. If using Favonius Greatsword, time Dori's Skill to generate particles for your main DPS.

5. In challenging content: Pair Dori with characters like Baizhu or Yaoyao if you need more healing.

Dori might seem tricky at first. But once you know how her abilities work, she becomes a strong support. She heals, gives Energy, and applies Electro. This makes her useful in many teams.

Her real strength is flexibility. You can use her as a healer, a battery, or even a reaction driver if you have her C6. Just pick the right build and team for your needs.
