Elemental Burst Support with a Side of Normal Attacks

Skyward Blade is ideal for characters who rely on Elemental Bursts for support, then deal their own bouts of DMG through Normal Attacks. Jean, Kaeya, and occassionally Furina can take benefit from this weapon's passive talent.

Bennett would be a perfect fit for the Skyward Blade due to his reliance on his Elemental Burst, as well as its high Base ATK for a bigger DMG buff. Kazuha can also benefit from this blade, provided that you can keep his Elemental Mastery up.

This is good on Bennett

Wouldn't it be good to include Qiqi as recommended character for the Skyward Blade since it's her bis weapon in the guides about her on this site?
