Paimon, in Genshin Impact, is not a playable character in the traditional sense but rather serves as a companion and guide for the Traveler. However, there's a fun, unofficial concept around creating a "build" for Paimon, often done in jest or for creative fan content. Here’s a playful guide to what could be considered the "Best Paimon Build" if she were playable:
Best Paimon Build
Role: Support and Guide
•Why Support?
•Paimon is known for guiding and assisting, which naturally aligns with a support role. She's not about dealing damage but about aiding the player.
Weapons:
•Since Paimon doesn't actually wield weapons, here's what she might use in a hypothetical scenario:
•"The Guide's Compass" (Imaginary Catalyst):
▪Base ATK: 42
▪Secondary Stat: Energy Recharge
▪Skill: Every time an ally uses their Elemental Skill, Paimon gains 5% ATK for 10 seconds (stacks up to 3 times).
Artifacts:
Set Bonus:
•4-piece Noblesse Oblige:
•Increases Elemental Burst damage by 20% for all party members after using Paimon's Burst for 12 seconds.
•+20% ATK for the whole party for 12s after using Elemental Burst.
Main Stats:
•Flower: HP% (since Paimon's "attacks" would be more about support than damage)
•Plume: ATK% (for scaling team buffs)
•Sands: Energy Recharge% (to maximize burst uptime)
•Goblet: HP% or Elemental Mastery (depending on whether you want to focus on healing or reaction buffs)
•Circlet: Healing Bonus% or Elemental Mastery
Sub Stats Priority:
•Energy Recharge > Healing Bonus > HP% > Elemental Mastery > ATK%
Talents:
•Normal Attack: "Paimon's Guidance" - A light tap that does minimal damage but gives nearby allies a small shield or heals them slightly.
•Elemental Skill - "Emergency Food": Creates a small area that heals allies over time or reduces their elemental skill cooldowns.
•Elemental Burst - "Paimon's Wisdom": Summons a giant Paimon illusion that buffs all party members' ATK and Elemental Mastery for a duration.
Constellations:
•C1 - Always by Your Side: Increases the healing effect of Paimon's Elemental Skill by 20%.
•C2 - Emergency Rations: When Paimon's health drops below 50%, her healing skills are enhanced, increasing the amount healed by 15%.
•C3 - Paimon's Encouragement: Increases the level of "Paimon's Wisdom" by 3.
•C4 - Never Lost: All party members gain a small amount of energy regeneration when Paimon uses her Elemental Burst.
•C5 - Paimon's Cheer: Increases the level of "Emergency Food" by 3.
•C6 - Guide to Victory: When Paimon is on the field, all party members' resistance to interruption is increased.
Team Composition:
•Paimon would work well in any team needing extra support, particularly those with high burst rotations or where energy management is key. She could pair with:
•A main DPS like Diluc or Ganyu.
•A secondary DPS or sub-DPS like Fischl or Xiangling.
•Another support/healer like Bennett or Jean.
Notes:
•This "build" is entirely speculative and creative, as Paimon isn't playable. It's crafted for fun and to imagine how Paimon might work if she were ever to become playable in the future.
•In reality, the best way to "build" Paimon is by enhancing your relationship with her through the game's story and interactions, ensuring she's always there to guide you through Teyvat.
This guide, while not based on any actual in-game functionality, reflects the community's affection for Paimon and the creative spirit of Genshin Impact players.
