Mualani is a hard-hitting 5-star DPS character in who deals damage while surfing on a shark. Now that you have the whole new region of Natlan to explore, here are Mualani’s best weapons and artifacts to get you started! Mualani’s best weapons Mualani’s best weapon is her signature 5-star . It gives her a good amount of CRIT DMG and HP, as well as a buff to her Normal Attacks.

It is a 5-star weapon, though, so you’ll have to rely on the to obtain it. If you happen to have A Thousand Floating Dreams or Tome of the Eternal Flow, those are good 5-star options too, though not as strong as Surf’s Up. The 4-star is an effective, accessible weapon for Mualani.



It has an HP secondary stat and its passive increases its wielder’s Normal Attack damage by a portion of their HP. As an HP-scaling Normal Attacker, Mualani can take full advantage of this weapon. Best of all, Ring of Yaxche can be obtained for free.

Go to the Natlan Smithy to obtain its blueprint and craft as many copies as you have the billets for. You can also get one in your mail for free by participating in the . The Battle Pass exclusive is a risky play.

It is possible for Sacrificial Jade to outperform Ring of Yaxche under some circumstances, but it is difficult to build around. Since Mualani gets so much CRIT Rate from her Ascension stat and artifact set (see artifact section below), Sacrificial Jade can result in too much CRIT Rate and not enough CRIT DMG. Unless you’ve somehow gotten very lucky with your artifacts, or you have an R5 Sacrificial Jade lying around, I recommend just sticking with Ring of Yaxche.

Best artifact sets for Mualani Mualani’s best artifact set is This is a new artifact set in the Natlan region whose passive centers around the Natlan-exclusive Nightsoul mechanic. Mualani is able to trigger the artifact buffs through normal play, gaining up to 15% DMG and 40% CRIT Rate. No other artifact sets come close to Obsidian Codex.

Your end-game goal for Mualani’s build should be a 4pc Obsidian Codex set. While you’re farming for Obsidian Codex, though, what can you use in the meantime? If you happen to have 4pc Gilded Dreams or 4pc Heart of Depths, those can serve as interim artifacts. Otherwise, try combining 2pc set bonuses that increase Normal Attack DMG, Hydro DMG, or HP.

Artifact stat priorities for Mualani HP Sands will usually be better than Elemental Mastery, but they’re fairly similar, depending on your weapon. A CRIT Rate circlet is not recommended, since Mualani has so much CRIT Rate baked into her kit and artifacts. Go CRIT DMG if at all possible.

As for substats, prioritize Energy Recharge is nice to have, but don’t go out of your way to build more than about 120%. Mualani’s Burst damage is roughly on par with one of her fully-charged Normal Attacks. It’s okay to forgo casting her Burst every rotation if it means you can build more offensive stats overall.

Mualani can be extremely strong when built with the above specifications. She’s plenty of fun, too, so I hope you enjoy playing her as much as I did!.
