Kaveh is a unique DPS in Genshin Impact that can increase Dendro Core DMG generated by the team when his Elemental Burst is active. However, his ultimate will only persist if he stays on the field. If Kaveh is swapped out, then his Burst will end, and players won’t get to enjoy the buffed Dendro Cores.

This put Kaveh in a weird position where he can constantly trigger Bloom but also have to play as a main DPS that scales with ATK at the same time. Fortunately, the architect has some other utilities that support him to play as a selfish DPS. If players wish to understand Kaveh build in Genshin Impact, this article will cover just that.

Kaveh Best Build In Genshin Impact

Kaveh Best Artifact In Genshin Impact

Kaveh’s best artifact in Genshin Impact is quite confusing. 4pc Flower of Paradise Lost is the best option assuming Kaveh is constantly the one triggering Bloom reaction, but if not, then 4pc Gilded Dreams is a far more stable option. People who don’t have a unit with 4pc Deepwood Memories can use it on Kaveh, but just note that when he first punctures Dendro Cores with his Skill or Burst, the explosion occurs before the Skill/Burst DMG, which means the first Core explosion will not benefit from the Dendro RES reduction. Players can also mix 2pc Elemental Mastery +80 if a four-piece set is unavailable.

If players are wondering if they can play Ocean-Hued Clam on Kaveh, the answer is quite simple; it works pretty well, but not recommended. Playing Kaveh on Ocean-Hued Clam allows him to survive the battle without the need for a healer or shielder, but players will also lose some damage from Dendro Cores (fortunately, the Ocean-Hued Clam bubble can cover some of the damage lost, but players have to ensure Kaveh properly receive Dendro Cores damage). Additionally, while Kaveh won’t be needing a healer, the same can’t be said about the rest of the team, so it may not be the best option, team-wise.

As for artifact main stat, it’s better to play Kaveh on full Elemental Mastery instead of ATK/Dendro DMG/Crit. However, the top priority is to ensure Burst availability. This means using an Energy Recharge Timepiece is not at all a bad idea.

Kaveh Best Weapon In Genshin Impact

Although players will use Kaveh’s Basic Attack in battle, the best Genshin Impact weapons for Kaveh remain those with Energy Recharge or Elemental Mastery sub-stat. However, some Claymores like Redhorn Stonethresher, Beacon of the Reed Sea, and Wolf’s Gravestone are somewhat okay for his on-field damage.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
