This Chiori build focuses on prioritizing on maximizing her off-field capabilities through her Elemental skill.

Since she scales on both ATK% and DEF%, having a good balance of Main Stat and Sub Stat is necessary. Adjust these artifacts accordingly based on your artifact rolls and what you currently have.

Husk of Opulent Dreams and the Golden Troupe artifact set essentially has slight differences in terms of damage output. However Golden Troupe has less conditions to set up.

Chiori Best Team Comp

Chiori Mono Geo Teams

Sub-DPS	Main DPS	Support	Support
Chiori	Itto	Gorou	Zhongli
Chiori	Ningguang	Gorou	Albedo

Chiori can excel well in a Mono-Geo team, as to utilize her passive and Geo Resonance. The team also contains multiple team members who can generate Geo Constructs, to ensure smoother team rotations.

Chiori mostly utilizes her Elemental Skill in these team comps, ensuring delivering constant Geo Damage Off-Field.

Chiori Double Geo Teams

Sub-DPS	Main DPS	Support	Support
Chiori	Xiao	Xianyun	Zhongli
Sub-DPS	Main DPS	Sub-DPS	Support
Chiori	Hu Tao	Yelan	Zhongli

An alternative is running her alongside one other geo unit like Albedo and Zhongli who can provide both geo resonance and Geo Constructs that can supplement Chiori's Elemental Skill.

It is important to note that other non-construct Geo units can be used, but their synergy will be limited due to Chiori's DPS being restricted to one Tamoto on the field prior to C1.

Chiori-Navia Teams

Sub-DPS	Main DPS	Sub-DPS	Support
Chiori	Navia	Xiangling	Bennett
Chiori	Navia	Furina	Charlotte

At C1, Chiori can function outside of Mono Geo and Construct-Geo characters, allowing her to pair up with Navia more optimally to enable Geo resonance and produce more Crystallize shards for them, all without stunting Chiori's personal damage.

Chiori Best Constellations

Cisoria

Constellation and Effects

	Chiori's Constellations
C1	Six Paths of Sage Silkcraft The AoE of the automaton doll "Tamoto" summoned by Fluttering Hasode is increased by 50%. Additionally, if there is a Geo party member other than Chiori, Fluttering Hasode will trigger the following after the dash is completed: · Summon an additional Tamoto. Only one additional Tamoto can exist at the same time, whether summoned by Chiori this way or through the presence of a Geo Construct. · Triggers the Passive Talent "The Finishing Touch." This effect requires you to first unlock the Passive Talent "The Finishing Touch."
C2	In Five Colors Dyed For 10s after using Hiyoku: Twin Blades, a simplified automaton doll, "Kinu," will be summoned next to your active character every 3s. Kinu will attack nearby opponents, dealing AoE Geo DMG equivalent to 170% of Tamoto's DMG. DMG dealt this way is considered Elemental Skill DMG. Kinu will leave the field after 1 attack or after lasting 3s.
C3	Four Brocade Embellishments Increases the Level of Fluttering Hasode by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
C4	A Tailor's Three Courtesies For 8s after triggering either follow-up effect of the Passive Talent "Tailor-Made," when your current active character's Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks hit a nearby opponent, a simplified automaton doll, "Kinu," will be summoned near this opponent. You can summon 1 Kinu every 1s in this way, and up to 3 Kinu may be summoned this way during each instance of "Tailor-Made"'s Seize the Moment or Tailoring effect. The above effect can be triggered up to once every 15s. Must unlock the Passive Talent "Tailor-Made" first.
C5	Two Silken Plumules Increases the Level of Hiyoku: Twin Blades by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
C6	Sole Principle Pursuit After triggering a follow-up effect of the Passive Talent "Tailor-Made," Chiori's own Fluttering Hasode's CD is decreased by 12s. Must unlock the Passive "Tailor-Made" first. In addition, the DMG dealt by Chiori's own Normal Attacks is increased by an amount equal to 235% of her own DEF."

Best Constellation Rating and Explanation

Best Value at C1

Chiori's constellations give her more options and opportunities to deal off-field Geo DMG, but C1 offers the best flexibility for her, and allows her to pair with other options like Navia rather than being locked to Mono Geo or a Geo-Construct character.

Chiori Talents and How to Use

Regarding Chiori's Scalings

Scales on Both ATK and DEF

Setting herself apart from the cast of Geo characters, Chiori mainly scales both on her Attack and Defense Stat, so having a fair balance on both will make her a notable presence in the battlefield!

Normal Attack

Elemental Skill

Summons Geo Turrets

With her elemental skill Chiori summons her personal automaton doll assistant, named Tamoto, which makes her perform a quick dash forward to the enemy.
Tamoto assists the team by dealing supplementary Geo Damage against enemies over certain periods.

If Tamoto is active and other Geo Constructs are on field, she can summon another Tamoto and do more slashes of Geo against enemies more frequently.

Hold Skill to Adjust

Similar to Keqing and Alhaitham, Chiori can hold her elemental skill and manually adjust where she would perform her dash. You can use this to position your characters.

You can change characters while in the middle of her Elemental skill, offering more flexibility in team rotations.

Elemental Burst

Geo Burst DMG With Split-Scaling

If the battlefield gets tough, Chiori unsheathes her twin blades and deals AoE Geo damage based on her ATK and DEF stats.

Passive Talent 1

Quickswap Usage

Tapping the Elemental Skill allows the player to immediately switch to the next character in their roster, and this skill can be performed either on the ground or mid-air.

This is often used in quickswap compositions to switch the character mid-air for a plunging attack, or to bypass the character switch cooldown and keep the rotations going.

Enables On-Field Chiori Playstyle

Using your Normal Attack after using your Elemental Skill instead gives Chiori Geo Infusion, giving her a chance to stay on-field to deal some damage.

Passive Talent 2

Passive Talent 3

Thoughts About Chiori

Character	In-Game Thoughts
Charlotte	I did a little snooping around at Chioriya Boutique once. Aside from the wealthy housewives of Fontaine and the box-ticking tourists from overseas, some of the regular customers there look like really rough characters! Big muscly types with scars on their face, guys in masks and hats with their swords drawn... But they always come bearing gifts and acting like humble servants. Uh... Well, mostly. Anyone with a bad attitude is literally sent flying back out the door. Seriously! I snapped a photo of a guy being thrown out once, he was like four feet in the air!
Chevreuse	Chiori's method of resolving disputes is bit radical. But, she has quite the network at her disposal and has provided the Special Security and Surveillance Patrol with intelligence on more than one occasion. In return, I turn a blind eye whenever she throws someone out the door or runs a malignant competitor out of business. If you look into it, you'll find that Chiori is always in the right. She's just not the type to waste her breath on explanations.
Clorinde	I've bought clothes from her store before. They're good quality. But most of the time, I prefer to wear my work uniform. Partly because it serves to clearly communicate my identity, and partly because I like things that are familiar. Just like my sword, this uniform is familiar and. functional — I have no desire to change it.
Kirara	She's really nice to me. I often ran into her in the past when she was out researching ways to make fabrics and develop color palettes. She was always worried that I'd leave claw marks all over her beautiful textiles, but come on, why would I do that to her? She's running a store in Fontaine now and sometimes asks me to deliver stuff to her. Hehe, she even helped me tailor the clothes I'm wearing now.
Lynette	The costumes Lyney and I wear for performances were specially tailored by Chiori. Once, Lyney was using a small knife for a magic trick, and accidentally cut the cuff of his sleeve a bit. She scolded us nonstop... it was scary. Luckily, I can hide behind Lyney whenever we go to her shop.
Lyney	Flattery won't get you anywhere with her. She'll only give those who can truly appreciate her art. a second look. How does she see me, you ask? Come on now, that hurts! Not only am I a connoisseur of the arts, but honest about it too, as I am in all my dealings!
Navia	Ah, the fashion designer who bought the coolest Inazuman trends to Fontaine? She's actually been a great help to the Spina behind the scenes. She says my unorthodox ideas always give her a lot of inspiration for her work, and from what I can tell, I think she means it. Still, she drew the line at the request for a ten-meter tall top hat. *sigh*Missed opportunity, if you ask me... Imagine seeing one of those in front of the shop! It would be a great way to draw in customers.

Chiori's Thoughts About Others

Character	In-Game Thoughts
Ayaka	About Ayaka If I wasn't always slipping away to go play when I was a child, I probably would never have had the chance to meet the young lady of the Kamisato Clan. There was one time when I climbed my way into the Kamisato Clan's courtyard, and her Temari just happened to roll over towards the wall. I could tell that she was both surprised and happy to see me. We played together and chatted for quite some time, but I was discovered in the end. And so, our brief friendship came to an end as I was kicked off the premises.
Charlotte	About Charlotte One time, Charlotte came into the shop, hoping to do an interview with me. I told her there was no point, because there was nothing new to talk about. But just as she was leaving, a drunkard came stumbling into the shop and started causing trouble. She recorded the whole thing... What a fiasco. I've heard of journalists chasing leads, but now it seems news chases the journalists.
Chevreuse	About Chevreuse Working with Chevreuse and talking with her are a cinch. So easy, in fact, that whenever I say goodbye to her and return to tending to my customers again, it takes me a moment to shift gears mentally.
Emilie	About Emilie Emilie's perfumes are very popular. We have a business agreement where I ask her to deliver small quantities of perfume she's working on to Chioriya Boutique. I let Eloffe secretly spray the perfume in the fitting room, and then I'll let her know any feedback I get from the customers. Even after all this time, I've never once had a customer ever say that my fitting room smelled strange. In fact, they usually come one after another to ask where they can buy the fragrance. Out of curiosity, I always buy a bottle when she brings them to sell in her shop. I have to say that such fragrances which can always bring a sense of refreshment are truly works of art.
Kirara	About Kirara While I was still in Inazuma, there was a cat with green eyes that always liked to follow me whenever I went out into the wild in search of inspiration. The kitty seemed to be very interested in the colors and patterns of the fabric I was carrying. She would even come up and rub her head against my legs when she was in a good mood. Later, I recognized those green eyes again, but on a girl with two tails. The way she gazed at new and intriguing things still had not changed after so many years.
Lynette	About Lynette The magician's assistant sure doesn't say much, but I know she trusts me. You know, I sure get a lot of love from cats...
Lyney	About Lyney I can't make a hat that could hide secrets, but it seems Lyney can enchant his hat to do just that... I'm a little curious about how it feels to wear a hat full of so many tricks and secrets like his. As for me, I don't need the burden of all that, it's easiest to just say what's on my mind.
Navia	About Navia She used to beg me to help her design all kinds of strange things. For example, little crowns for every handle on a ship's helm... I couldn't help but roll my eyes at her request, and tell her that the most I would do is design her hat like a boat. Those who say I'm ahead of my time have clearly never spoken to her.
Wriothesley	About Wriothesley Yes. Some of my friends and partners have mentioned him to me before. I admire his skills at management and diplomacy, but I certainly have no intention of changing my way of doing things.
