Sayu returns for her sixth Genshin Impact limited event banner. As part of Version 4.0 Phase 2, Sayu has a boosted drop rate on both Zhongli and Tartaglia’s banners. She’s running with Freminet and Noelle, so you’re not guaranteed to get her.

Depending on how you want to use Sayu, her Talent priority switches between her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst. For her Sub-DPS build, level up her Elemental Skill since most of her damage comes from that. For her Healer Support build, level up her Elemental Burst. For both builds, leave her Normal Attack for last.
Combat Talents
Normal Attack – Shuumatsuban Ninja Blade
Sayu can perform up to 4 consecutive strikes. Her Charged Attack launches her into a spinning attack that drains stamina.
Elemental Skill – Yoohoo Art: Fuuin Dash
Sayu’s Elemental Skill has two modes: Press and Hold. Either way, upon activation, Sayu rolls into a ball and deals Anemo DMG to enemies. The Skill ends with a Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.
The Press Mode allows Sayu to enter the Fuufuu Windwheel state. She will roll forward a short distance before using the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick.
In Hold Mode, Sayu will roll around continuously in the Fuufuu Windwheel state. In this state, Sayu’s resistance to interruption is increased. You can control the direction of her roll and can use her Skill again to end her Windwheel state early. This will unleash a stronger version of the Fuufuu Whirlwind Kick. Hold Mode can trigger Elemental Absorption if Sayu comes into contact with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, or Electro.
The Skill has a maximum duration of 10 seconds and enters CD once it ends. The longer Sayu remains in her Windwheel state, the longer the CD. At most, the CD will be 11 seconds.
Elemental Burst – Yoohoo Art: Mujina Flurry
Sayu deals Anemo DMG to nearby enemies and heals all nearby party members based on Sayu’s ATK. She will also summon a Muji-Muji Daruma. At specific intervals, the Muji-Muji Daruma will either attack nearby opponents with Anemo DMG or heal the active character with the lowest percentage HP left. The healing will kick in if there are characters with 70% or less HP, or if there are no opponents near the Muji-Muji Daruma.
Passive Talents
1st Ascension – Someone More Capable
When Sayu triggers a Swirl reaction while active, she heals all your characters and nearby allies for 300 HP. She will also heal an additional 1.2 HP for every point of Elemental Mastery she has. This can be triggered once every 2 seconds. After Sayu’s first Ascension, boosting her EM will help both her healing and her reaction damage.
4th Ascension – No Work Today!
This Passive adds two features to the Muji-Muji Daruma. First, the Daruma’s healing expands to characters near the character being healed. The healing is reduced to 20% of that amount of HP. Second, it increases the AoE of its attack against opponents.
Utility Passive – Yoohoo Art: Silencer’s Secret
When Sayu is part of your team, your characters will not startle Crystalflies and certain other animals when you get close to them. If you’re having trouble keeping up with your Condensed Resin, Sayu can help you collect Crystal Cores.
