The BEST Electro DPS Yet? | Clorinde Initial Kit, Builds, & Teams Analysis

hello everyone choren the strongest Champion duelist in Fontaine is one of the three new characters coming out in Patch 4.7 out of the three characters I'm the most excited about choran her animations are one of the best I've seen in gch and her gameplay looks extremely fast-paced and fun so without further Ado let's get right into explaining her initial kit as always remember that this is very early information so very subject to change choran is a five-star Electro sword user intended to be an onfield main DPS she is usia aligned and has a crit rate Ascension her kit revolves around Bond of life to deal primarily normal attack damage sounds very similar to arlino but as you'll see chlorin mechanics are quite a bit different as a character that primarily deals normal attack damage it makes sense to look at her normal Talent first the scalings are shown here but you can actually safely ignore them wait what that doesn't make sense right I just said chlorine mostly deals normal attack damage well everything will make sense when you look at her skill which is where the majority of chlorine kit lies this is yet another skill with a lot of words that make it look very confusing but I'll simplify it and explain the key details so you can see that chlorin skill is pretty straightforward in practice when you first press choren skill which has a 16-second cool down she enters an enhanced State called Knight watch which enhances her attacks for 9 seconds similar to how io's skill functions in this state all of her attacks are considered normal attack damage which is why we can ignore her normal Talent while in Night Watch Chan's normal attacks become extremely quick pistol shots which periodically trigger The usia alied Arc damage when she has less than 100% Bond of life these shots Pierce and give 35% Bond of life when she has greater than or equal to 100% Bond of life these shots actually deal less damage so you want to stop normal attacking once your bond of life goes over 100% normal attacking isn't the only thing choran can do Under The Night Watch enhanced State choran can also press her skill again to perform a lunging attack similar to Shia's Elemental skill this lunging attack has three levels based on the amount of bond of life she has with each level increasing the skill's damage AOE and healing the important thing you need to note is that you only want to use her skill at its highest level which is when choren has great G than or equal to 100% Bond of Life at this level her lunging attack does the most damage and heals HP based on 120% of Chen's current Bond of life this functions to get rid of the bond of life you accumulated from your pistol shot normals so Chan's play style consists of normal attacking in her enh handed state to gain Bond of life than spending it when she has enough bond to perform the strongest version of her lunging attack by pressing her skill lastly while under the night watch State Chen's HP can only be healed from the healing of her lunge attacks any healing she does receive in her enhanced state gets converted to bond of life in a 1:1 ratio with her A4 passive like arlino this is to ensure that her kit properly functions with Bond of life however unlike arino Claren can still get healed by her teammates when she's not in an enhanced state for instance if she's off field her A4 passi mention also has a second part to it when choren has greater than or equal to 100% Bond of life and increases or decreases she gains crit rate she naturally Stacks this herself when using her level three lunge attack so this just gives 20% crit rate which is pretty nice that was a lot of info on her skill and I went to to summon up again with a more practical view you first use choran skill to enter the night watch enhanced state to maximize her damage you want to normal Tech when you have less than 100% Bond and skill when you have over 100% Bond so if you start at 0% Bond one normal gives you 35 the second gives you 70 and the third gives you 105% Bond of life now you can press your skill to perform the strongest lunge attack this heals based on 120% of your current Bond of life so 120% of 105% equals a healing of 126% of choren Max HP most of this goes to clearing your 105% bond so you're left with about a 20% Max heal every skill then you can repeat this cycle of three normals into a skill within the 9-second duration of the Night Watch enhanced State you can fit a total of six of these So within one rotation choran heals herself to full and even more making her very self-sufficient now you may have noticed that all of the multipliers on their skills hits are fairly low sure choren attacks fast so she gets a lot of them in but if all she had were her skill multipliers Chen's damage would be pretty bad however her A1 pass makes up a very big portion of her damage and is very important to her kit when choren or any of her teammates triggers an electro related reaction any of Chan's attacks that deal normal attack damage and her burst are increased based on 17% of her attack for 15 seconds this buff can be stacked up to three times and the max buff that can be obtained is a 1,530 damage increase to Max the buff 3,000 attack is needed and this effectively serves as adding a 50% multiplier to each of your hits so any percentage I listed on the skill description you can just add 50 to each percentage to visualize or A1 and by doing this you can see that this buff mixes up a very considerable portion of Chen's damage because her individual hits have low multipliers activation of this buff is also very easy and pretty much guaranteed it is not like Net's passive where you need to trigger different hydr related reactions the way Chan's passive is worded you can prac the same reaction three different times such as aggravate three times and you'll fully stack the buff Clan's Al is very straightforward other than being one of the coolest burst animations in the game it just does damage has a 15sec cool down and 60 energy cost her burst is pretty much the same as risley's and wanderous burst where you'll want to use it whenever it's up either before or after you enter her enhanced state to not waste its uptime one extra important detail however is that choren burst gives her 120% Bond of life this means that her burst gives another usage of her level three lunge attack skill which is great since that attack has the highest multiplier in her skill lastly choren special passive displays Fontaine specialty resources on your map very cool Talent priority is very simple level skill over burst as her skill makes up most of her kit you can safely ignore her normal Talent next let's go over chlorin constellations C1 when chlorin is in the night watch State she can trigger two electroc coordinated attacks every 1 second whenever she deals Electro normal attack damage her coordinate attacks scale off 30% of her attack and is considered normal attack damage this means that she gets a lot of hits with her C1 and each of them proc her A1 which like I mentioned before is actually very important for a damage because of this C1 is very strong because of the amount of extra A1 procs that you can get her C2 just Buffs her A1 pass increasing the max buff you can achieve and the scaling on it again I want to emphasize that her A1 passive is very important so this C2 is again an extremely strong constellation the cap is still 3,000 attack but instead of adding around a 50% multiplier to each of her hits with C2 you can add around a 70% multiplier in addition with C2 when chlorine has Max stacks of this A1 passive she gains a bit of the resistance to Interruption C3 increases her skill by three levels C4 increases Chan's burst damage based on the current amount of bond of she has so instead of using her burst outside of Night Watch you're going to probably want to use it while you have Bond of Life C5 increases her burst by three levels and lastly C6 when choren enters Night Watch she gains 10% crit rate and 70% crit damage for 12 seconds in addition when she's in her enhan state choran gets even more resistance to Interruption and 80% damage reduction and also with C6 a glim bright shade can spawn up to six times dealing electric damage scaling off of 200% of Chan's attack this shade can spawn when Chan's about to get hit or whenever she uses a lunge attack skill these effects will end when Night Watch is over or 1 second after the last shade is summoned and she can spawn a maximum of six so in summary CIS gives her crit rate crit damage an extra 1,200% multiplier and pretty much makes her unable to die with resistance to Interruption 80% damage reduction so you get C6 she can pretty much St anything now let's go over her potential weapon starting with her signature 674 base attack gives a total of 64.1% crit damage and a total of 36 damage per since she easily meets the requirement of increasing Bond of Life simple signature and it's good but I'm fully expecting it to get buff as there are other five star swords that perform very similarly notably Miss spitter and haran paku futu as these weapons also give crit and plenty of damage percent other five star weapons that are also similar stat sticks are good options as well for fourstar weapons again similar to the five-star weapons choran has a lot of usable options any weapon that gives USV stats like crit and attemp are fine to use for instance black sword and lar are both solid four-star choices the one fourstar Freedom play option that I think is especially good is the Fontaine craftable finale of the deep it gives her a lot of attack percent to help you reach that 3,000 attack threshold to Max her A1 passive and she can easily clear the bond of Life effect that comes with this weapon giving even more attack artifact sets wise she's a bond of Life DPS so the fragment of harmonic Whimsy is a no-brainer on her however I have seen some early calculations suggesting that eeko is surprisingly very good on her even potentially out forming this new Bond of Life set it strength does make sense as ekko's four piece effect pretty much acts the same way as Clan's A1 passive which is the majority of her damage since it's so early in the beta cycle and ekko's is inconsistent with factors like Ping I won't confidently say that eeko is definitively her best set however just keep in mind that it is a potential option for those who have actually chosen to farm this domain other than those two sets four piece glad and two-piece two-piece are decent options if you don't have anything else in addition if you decide to run a finina team you can consider also using Mario chusi Hunter however Claren does gain 20% CR crit weight initially so you may easily overcap with that extra crit weight with marus Hunter stats wise very simple attack hourglass Electro goblet crit ciret sub stats prioritize crit attack perc ER then lastly em if you want to play dendro teams em being last and me not recommending em hourglass may seem a bit controversial as em is generally seen as an important stat for dender teams like aggravate and Hyper Bloom however unlike a character like Sino choran has no em scaling and is heavily dependent on attack for her damage because of her A1 passive in addition danger teams will probably run nahita who already gives em so it isn't too important of a stat to build for how much ER you should build depends on the team ideally you went to burst every rotation because of its damage and because it gives Bond of life allowing you one extra level three skill in a rotation and since your teams are likely to have Electro resistance and can run fishal with a 60 energy burst cost she can potentially run 100% ER and still be able to burst every rotation if you do want some comfort I would recommend around 110 and 120% ER this isn't backed by any math just my experience with other characters in similar situations the general team rotation when playing choren is pretty straightforward first you want to set up your support skills then if you have your burst start off with your claran burst to gain 120% Bond of life then use cloran skill to enter her night watch enhanced State immediately afterwards you can use your skill because you have over 100% Bond of life to perform a level three lunge attack this clears your bond of life and also heals her then you normal attack three times which gives you 105% Bond of Life which allows you to use her level three lunge attack by pressing her skill which again clears that Bond of life and heals then you can repeat step five until Night Watch is over you can fit a total of six and three e once her up time is over then you can just repeat from step one very simple remember just like wander and Risley you'll want to use Chan's birth outside of her night watch so you don't waste any of her uptime unless you have C4 plus because you would want to take advantage of the extra multiplier based on her current Bond of life before I discuss her potential team comps I want to First discuss one factor that can influence her team building and even her rotation which is healing unlike Lino who makes healers pretty much useless flan can normally get healed if she isn't in her enhanced Night Watch state if she is in that state the healing doesn't touch her HP but gets converted to bond of Life Instead This mechanic is very interesting because it allows healing chlorine during Night Watch to potentially buffer damage the reason we normal attack during an enhanced state is to gain Bond of life to use her level three lunge attack skill at over 100% Bond of life as it is the highest multiplier in his skill Talent healing gives additional Bond of life to choran with this additional Bond of Life choran can potentially use more level three skills and less normal attacks within the rotation which is better for damage however this may require more precise timings of the heals and more work on yourself to track whether you can skill earlier than three normal attacks or not so personally I would still stick to the three normals and to skill to make the game play easier on you in this case the extra Bond of life you would gain from healing only results in extra healing from using her lunge attack skill personally I think that choren sell feel is big and comfortable enough for me to recommend healer list teams allowing for another character who can buff or deal damage or to potentially in the shield as she doesn't seem to have resistance Interruption as C zero however choren special Synergy with healers is something to consider when team building finally let's talk about her potential teams as a five-star electr main DPS choren serves the same role as other electr main DPS like kaching Ryden to a lesser extent Yi Soo and sethos and due to the versatility of Electro if you can just imagine any team you can think of for the other five characters and just replace them with choren in that slot you'll probably have a working choren team she's not restricted to a certain style at all and can fit into pretty much any Electro related team composition you're going to have a lot of options and since we're very early in the beta I don't think it's very useful or accurate to say one team comp will be better than another since her numbers can be changed so easily what I will cover though are the team CS that I personally think have the most potential and synergize well with Chan's initial kit and give some example characters you can use the teams I'm thinking of are aggravate teams quick Bloom teams electrocharge teams finina teams and overload oriented teams with claran attacking so many times I do think her kit makes a lot of sense and aggravate even though it may not be hoo's design intention as Claren has no em scaling nahita is a no-brainer for the dunger slot and C6 fishal is almost a must if you want chlorin aggravate teams to be amazing since fishal is just so strong in aggravate the last slot should be an animal slot like kazuwa for a VV shred you can easily sub out naha for someone like baju or kurara for defensive utility you can also sub Out official for cookie though I would prefer replacing the dendro slot quick Plum teams follow a similar team structure you just need to replace the animal slot with a hydro unit like Shing or yolan and choran should be able to proc their burst with her in has normal pistol shots it's not worth focusing your choran will to be em so the actual hyper Bloom cores aren't going to be doing an insane amount of damage with double Electro you'll primarily be taking advantage of the quick and Aura just like agrate electric charge is going to be solid as well you can go double hydro and pairing chlorine with fishal or with bet in AOE situations since cen's damage is considered normal attack damage she should be able to proc B's burst another option is to just go single hydro and put in an animal unit for VV next even though finina teams would be versions of quick Bloom and electrocharge I wanted to go over fena teams on their own to discuss her potential Synergy with choren typically c0 finina teams basically require a team wide healer to heal off fenus HP drain and gain Fan Fair Stacks however one normal non-sp speedrun czo finina team that doesn't have a Healer is this nivet team which is considered one of his best teams no healer is needed because nivet is able to proc over healing when he charged attacks activating for endless Walt passive to heal the team and I think choren is able to do the exact same thing every level three lunge attack skill she uses which consumes her bond of life will heal about 20% of her Max HP and she's doing six of these per rotation and if you include her burst seven so she's constantly healing while she's on Fielding on top of that remember that F's Fanfare doesn't just give damage percent but also healing bonus further increasing choran self-healing because of this choran can easily help keep herself alive while proing Over Heals helping to keep the team alive as well without a Healer and I'm confident enough to to actually recommend these healer lless finina teams such as a quick Blom version with choren finina nahita and Fel if a team like this happens to be manageable in practice you'll get so much damage with every character dealing damage and finina buffing them all lastly I think overload oriented teams such as those with Chev would be pretty good as long as you don't get massively screwed by the overload knockback you can go a team like Claren chevis fishell and Shang Lang to take full advantage of chev's buff to Electro and Pyro damage you can even consider using C6 Sara instead official and attempt to buff multiple members though this might be a bit more difficult to do in practice now you may be wondering why I'm suggesting solo Shang Ling instead of someone like Bennett attack is important on choren so why don't I recommend just using Bennett the reason is that Chen's A1 passive that contributes to a lot of her damage maxes out at 3,000 attack if you're building for attack in your gear and using Bennett you're going to overcap because Bennett gives so much and any attack over 3,000 doesn't give you any more A1 passive damage it only Buffs your skill and burst damage and remember her skill multiplier are pretty low individually so the value of getting a tech over 3,000 is not as big thus to probably most people's relief I don't think Bennett is that good of a character to pair with choren the last overload oriented team I wanted to mention is over Vape specifically the Ryden national team which is pretty popular if you just put choren in Ryan's place you'll pretty much do the same thing and that's pretty much everything I wanted to cover about choren with the current version of the kit choren looks pretty solid if you compare her with the other electr main DPSS in the same teams she's looking to perform on par if not a little bit better than the electro main DPSS we have currently so at the moment nothing game-breaking just solid enough to clear any content like most limited fivestar DPSS in this game remember this is just the first version of Clan's kit so it will likely get changed personally I wouldn't be surprised to see some slight Buffs in the future because from current team DPS estimates it looks like she can afford to get some slight number increases overall though I don't have any major CLS unlike another five star character at this time her damage is perfectly fine animations are amazing and her gameplay looks very exciting so I can't wait to see what's in store for choren in the near future hope this initial overview and Analysis on Chen's kit was helpful to you all leave any questions in the comments and I'll try to clarify anything drop the video a like or sub to the channel if you like this type of content and I hope you all have a wonderful day
