Quick pre-farm checklist (what to stock up now)
Ascension materials unique to Durin: (list the in-game regional drops relevant to Durin’s nation and monster type) — prioritize 46–60 of each required drop plus local specialty (flowers, seeds) and common boss drops (x6).
Talent books: prepare at least 9 books per talent to reach level 6 if planning mid-term upgrades; 15 per talent for a full S-tier endgame plan.
Weekly boss materials: pre-farm 6–12 boss drops depending on priority (Talent priority will dictate whether you need 6 or 18).
Mora and enhancement ores: stock 2–3 million Mora and 30–50 enhancement ores for early talent pushes and weapon/gear upgrades.
Weapon ascension ores and prototypes: ensure you have prototypes or craft materials for at least one mid-tier weapon to use early (e.g., craftable 4-star or 3-star if weapon pool is uncertain).
Note: Adjust numbers depending on whether you plan to push talents past level 6 immediately or wait for endgame optimization.
Durin role breakdown and playstyle expectations
Durin (pre-release profile assumed here) functions primarily around Pyro interactions and either scales with weapon-based multipliers or talent-synergized burst windows. Depending on his kit, the most common roles you’ll see are:
Main DPS — front-line damage dealer relying on consistent normal/charged/explosive hits and a powerful Elemental Burst. Prioritize attack, CRIT, and Pyro damage.
Sub-DPS / Off-field Pyro — provides consistent Pyro application and damage scaling through off-field skills or auras. Prioritize Energy Recharge, Pyro damage, and team synergy artifacts.
Support / Battery — focuses on enabling other characters via energy generation, elemental application, and buffs. Prioritize Energy Recharge, Elemental Mastery (if reactions oriented), and supportive weapon options.
This guide gives clear builds for each role so you can pick what suits your team and resource state.
Choosing Durin’s role (how to decide before pull)
If you already have top-tier Pyro main DPS (e.g., Hu Tao, Diluc, etc.), plan Durin as sub-DPS to add reaction windows and burst support.
If you lack Pyro leadership or want a new main, focus on main DPS artifact sets and CRIT priority—pre-farm accordingly.
If your roster lacks Energy batteries or reaction enablers, consider support/battery to create consistent team uptime.
Pick a role early—pre-farming depends on the role you commit to because talent books and boss drops may prioritize one path.
Artifact set recommendations
Below are role-specific artifact sets with short explanations and priority alternatives when you can’t access the main sets immediately.
Main DPS artifact options
Best: 4-piece set X that boosts Pyro damage and increases normal/charged/skill damage synergy. This is ideal if Durin’s kit scales with attack or Pyro% multipliers.
Alternative: 2-piece Pyro + 2-piece ATK — balanced option to keep raw damage up until the 4-piece is available.
Budget: 4-piece ATK% / 4-piece Gladiator-style equivalents from early-game artifacts or weekly bosses.
Off-field / Sub-DPS artifact options
Best: 4-piece set Y that amplifies off-field damage or enhances elemental aura/duration. Off-field Durin benefits from sets that increase Pyro application or aura potency.
Alternative: 2-piece Pyro + 2-piece ER if you need to maintain burst uptime while supporting other DPS.
Budget: Flower/Feather set mixes oriented toward survivability and Pyro% where available.
Support / Battery artifact options
Best: 2-piece Energy Recharge + 2-piece Pyro when Durin’s kit requires frequent burst uptime for team utility.
Alternative: 4-piece Energy Recharge if you need to guarantee consistent burst contribution.
Budget: Artifact mixes that add EM if your team relies on reactions (Overloaded, Vaporize, Melt).
Note: Artifact set names are intentionally generic when pre-release details are uncertain—apply these set roles to the actual sets available in 6.2 that match the described bonuses.
Artifact main stats and sub-stat priorities
Optimizing artifact stats is the single most important practical step you can take before rounding up perfect sets. Below are clear priorities by role.
Main DPS main stat priority
Sands: ATK% or Energy Recharge (choose ATK% if Durin has low energy needs, choose ER if he’s energy-hungry).
Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus (primary) or ATK% if Pyro bonus isn’t available.
Circlet: CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG depending on current ratios; prioritize balancing CRIT to about a 1:2 CR:D ratio (for example, 50% CR and 100% CD).
Substats to chase: CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, ATK%, Elemental Mastery (if reaction-dependent).
Off-field / Sub-DPS main stat priority
Sands: Energy Recharge or ATK% (ER if providing bursts, ATK% if providing buffed off-field damage).
Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus or HP% if kit scales with HP.
Circlet: CRIT DMG or CRIT Rate based on how often the off-field procs crit.
Substats to chase: Energy Recharge, ATK%, CRIT, Elemental Mastery.
Support / Battery main stat priority
Sands: Energy Recharge (top priority).
Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus or Elemental Mastery if reaction support fits.
Circlet: Healing Bonus or EM if the support function requires it.
Substats to chase: Energy Recharge, EM, HP%/ATK% as situational.
Artifact optimization tips (practical farming advice)
Use resin efficiently: focus on getting high-roll sands and circlets first. Goblets with non-Pyro stats can be used temporarily.
Stat re-roll targets: Always aim for at least 1–2 CRIT Rate or 1–2 CRIT DMG substat rolls early; avoid investing heavily until you have a balanced CR:CD ratio.
Early-game triage: equip Durin with a functional 2-piece set mix while farming for 4-piece synergy—this keeps performance reasonable without overcommitting resources.
Swap templates: maintain two artifact sets—one for burst windows (high ATK/CRIT) and another for sustained team utility (high ER/EM).
Weapon recommendations
Below are weapon recommendations grouped by role and budget, including suggested ascension targets and rationale.
Best-in-slot (if available)
Signature 5-star weapon (name to be confirmed in 6.2): usually offers substantial Pyro DMG bonus, CRIT or a strong on-skill multiplier. Prioritize if you plan main DPS.
Why: Signature weapons are tuned to maximize a character’s kit and often provide unique passives that synergize with talent multipliers.
Strong 5-star alternatives
Top-tier 5-star claymore/elemental weapon with ATK/CRIT or Pyro-oriented passive (if Durin is claymore user).
Why: Offers high base ATK and scaling passives that boost burst windows.
Budget 4-star options
Craftable 4-star: reliable early-game choice with ATK% or Energy Recharge.
Event or banner 4-star: good mid-ground; often accessible and effective with decent passives.
Budget 3-star options (pre-farm safe picks)
Best 3-star with raw ATK or Harvesting-style stats; fine to use until you pull a better weapon.
Why: 3-star weapons are easy to prototype and allow you to pre-farm ascension materials without committing to a banner-only weapon.
Weapon priority by role
Main DPS: prioritize CRIT boost + ATK% or a Pyro-damage multiplier.
Sub-DPS: choose ER + Pyro DMG passive or moderate ATK/EM depending on the damage source.
Support: Energy Recharge or team-buffing passives.
Talent priority and leveling roadmap
How you invest talent books and boss materials determines how fast Durin reaches his performance peaks. Below is a phased roadmap to guide pre-farm and early play.
Talent priority (general)
Elemental Burst — first priority if Durin’s burst is the main damage window or team enabler.
Elemental Skill — second priority for uptime and procs.
Normal/Charged Attack — third unless Durin’s kit is attack-heavy (then swap priority accordingly).
Leveling roadmap (pre-farm sensible targets)
Short-term: Bring burst to talent level 6, skill to level 4, and attack to level 4. This gives solid burst potency without draining boss materials.
Mid-term: Push burst to talent level 8–9, skill to 6, attack to 6 if resources permit.
Long-term: Aim for talent level 10–10–10 for competitive play, plus constellations if desired.
Talent book farming tips
Prioritize weekend talent domains that drop the books you need on days where you can efficiently clear multiple domains with minimal resin waste.
Use lower-cost talent books to progress early; hold weekly boss materials until you’re certain of final talent priorities.
Team comps and synergy
Below are four ready-to-use team comps that highlight Durin’s role flexibility. Each comp includes a short rotation suggestion and synergy notes.
1) Durin Main DPS (Melt/Vape Focus)
Composition: Durin (Main DPS), Hydro applicator (e.g., Xingqiu), Anemo support (e.g., Kazuha), healer/shielder (e.g., Bennett or Zhongli).
Synergy: Hydro ensures consistent Vaporize windows; Anemo amplifies DMG and groups enemies.
Rotation: Anemo -> Hydro skill -> Durin skill -> burst -> rotate to normal attacks and reapply.
2) Off-field Pyro Sub-DPS (Reaction Heavy)
Composition: Durin (off-field), Main physical/Elemental DPS (e.g., Traveler, Eula), Hydro/Anemo utility, buffer.
Synergy: Durin’s off-field Pyro procs reactions while main DPS handles sustained damage.
Rotation: Spawn Durin’s off-field aura -> engage main DPS rotation -> refresh aura before burst window.
3) Battery/Support Durin
Composition: Durin (battery), Burst DPS (e.g., Klee), Hydro enabler, wind buffer.
Synergy: Durin supplies frequent burst uptime to others while adding Pyro reactions.
Rotation: Energy-gain rotation -> use support skill -> switch to burst DPS and let them capitalize.
4) Reaction-centric Hypercarry
Composition: Durin + a high-reaction partner (Hydro/ Cryo) + crowd control + healer.
Synergy: Focuses on constant reaction triggers (Overloaded / Melt).
Rotation: Apply Pyro -> swap to Hydro/Cryo -> trigger reactions -> repeat.
Rotation examples and micro-optimizations
Two sample rotations—one for main DPS and another for off-field—with notes on animation-cancels and timing.
Main DPS rotation (simple, energy-conscious)
Start: Use Anemo/Hydro support to group and debuff.
Buff: Deploy skill for increased damage window.
Burst: Activate Durin’s Elemental Burst during grouped enemies.
DPS window: Normal/charged attacks until burst ends.
Reapply: Reapply skill shortly before burst cooldown to maintain uptime.
Micro-tips: Cancel attack animations using dash/skill transitions where possible; use charged attacks only when safe or when charged multipliers justify the risk.
Off-field rotation (sustain and reaction maximization)
Apply off-field Pyro field/skill.
Swap to main DPS to trigger reactions.
Return to Durin if necessary to refresh aura before the reaction window ends.
Micro-tips: Time field refreshes just before major reaction ticks to avoid losing uptime; coordinate with Hydro applicator to maximize Vaporize windows.
Bench builds and low-resource setups
If you’re limited on artifacts, weapons, or talent materials, use these low-resource templates to get by until you finish pre-farming.
Artifact fallback: 2-piece Pyro + 2-piece ATK or 4-piece ATK to keep numbers high. Focus on high ATK sands and goblet.
Weapon fallback: Any high-base ATK craftable weapon with an ATK% secondary. Prototype weapons are fine.
Talent fallback: Prioritize unlocking burst to level 6; hold off on attack/talent upgrades until you can secure boss drops.
Team fallback: Pair Durin with strong universal buffers (Bennett) and Hydro applicators for consistent reaction uptime.
Optimization flowchart (how to decide where to invest next)
Do you want Durin as main DPS? -> Invest in CRIT weapons, Pyro Goblets, burst talent to 6+.
Do you want Durin as sub-DPS? -> Invest in ER, off-field artifacts, skill to 6 and burst to 6.
Low resources? -> Use 2-piece mixes and craftable 4-star weapons; save boss materials.
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
Mixing conflicting artifact goals (e.g., chasing ER on a main DPS set) — define role first.
Overinvesting in CRIT without balancing CR:CD — target a healthy ratio early.
Ignoring Energy needs — if Durin’s burst uptime suffers, prioritize ER or weapon that helps recharge.
Farming the wrong talent books — double-check the talent domain schedule and plan days for pre-farm runs.
FAQ
What is the best stat priority for Durin main DPS?
Answer: Prioritize CRIT Rate/CRIT DMG and ATK% with a Pyro DMG Bonus goblet if available. Balance CR:CD to roughly 1:2 for reliable damage.
Should I prioritize Talent or Weapon ascension first?
Answer: If Durin’s Burst is his strongest damage window, prioritize Burst talent to level 6 first. If the weapon provides a multiplicative passive that reshapes his damage, prioritize weapon ascension so you can benefit immediately.
Can Durin be an off-field sub-DPS?
Answer: Yes. Build him with Energy Recharge and off-field Pyro artifact choices. Use him to apply Pyro while a main DPS carries the single-target damage.
What is the best early-game weapon if I can’t pull a 5-star?
Answer: Use craftable 4-star or high-base ATK 3-star prototypes with ATK% secondaries. These are cheap to make and will carry Durin through pre-farm content.
How many artifacts should I farm before investing in talent books?
Answer: Target at least one full 4-piece set with good main stats before dumping heavy talent materials. This prevents wasting boss drops on a poorly-artifacted Durin.
What team comps pair best with Durin?
Answer: Durin pairs well with Hydro applicators for Vaporize and Anemo supports for grouping and damage amplification. He can also serve as a battery for high-cost burst carries.
