Genshin Impact 5★ Pyro Claymore Main DPS
Gest of the Mighty Wolf is the closest fit on the game's own numbers: Diluc's kit multiplies ATK, and a weapon is ranked here on whether its ascension stat and its passive act on that stat. A Teaspoon of Transcendence, Fruitful Hook and Redhorn Stonethresher come next. No playtested ranking has been imported for Diluc, so this is arithmetic over the kit data rather than a damage measurement.
Run Crimson Witch of Flames on Diluc, with A Day Carved From Rising Winds and Disenchantment in Deep Shadow behind it. Main stats are ATK% sands, Pyro DMG Bonus goblet, CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG circlet. Roll substats in the order CRIT Rate > CRIT DMG > ATK% > Energy Recharge.
Talent priority is Normal Attack > Elemental Skill > Elemental Burst. The Elemental Burst costs 40 energy, which is what an Energy Recharge target has to clear.
The strongest team is Diluc, Kamisato Ayaka, Venti and Diona, built around Diluc: Cryo · Melt.
Diluc's abilities multiply ATK. That is read from the scaling rows on the Elemental Skill and Burst, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.
Gest of the Mighty Wolf is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star claymore with CRIT Rate as its ascension stat, and its passive acts on ATK. Fruitful Hook is the best 4-star alternative.
Crimson Witch of Flames. Its 2-piece bonus is: Pyro DMG Bonus +15% Its 4-piece bonus is: Increases Overloaded, Burning, and Burgeon DMG by 40%. Increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%. Using Elemental Skill increases the 2-Piece Set Bonus by 50% of its starting value for 10s. Max 3 stacks.
