# Keqing

## **Roles**

* **On-Field DPS** (Electro, Physical)
* **Burst DPS**

## **Character Breakdown**

* **Elemental Skill (Tap)** summons a Lightning Stiletto, dealing **Electro DMG** to enemies.
  * Recasting her **Elemental Skill** teleports her to its location and deals additional **AoE Electro DMG**.
  * If Keqing instead uses a **Charged Attack**, the Lightning Stiletto explodes and deals **AoE** **Electro** **DMG**.
  * **A1** infuses Keqing's **Normal** and **Charged Attacks** with **Electro** for 5 seconds after teleporting with her **Elemental Skill**.
* **Elemental Skill (Hold)** allows her to manually aim the Lightning Stiletto.
* **Elemental Burst** deals **AoE** **Electro** **DMG**.
  * **A4** gives Keqing 15% **CRIT Rate** and 15% **Energy Recharge** for 8 seconds after her using her **Elemental Burst**.

## **Additional Notes**

* Keqing can be played as either an **Electro** or **Physical** On-Field DPS.
* Keqing can easily run out of **Stamina** due to her **Charged Attacks** being her main source of damage.
* She can maintain her **Electro** Infusion by using her **Elemental Skill** then using her **Elemental Burst** before recasting the **Elemental Skill**.
* Keqing's **Charged Attack** can often knock back smaller enemies making it difficult to deal consistent damage.

## **Works well with**

#### ![](/files/-MgIxnn94J69ajjrp2QN)

* Bennett's **Elemental Burst** provides healing and a massive **ATK** buff, making him a recommended character in most teams.

#### ![](/files/-MgIxnnJf4Wx6YM4Ib1r)

* Xingqiu's **Elemental Burst** has a high rate of **Hydro** application which allows for constant **Electro-Charged** reactions.
* For **Physical** Keqing, he can also be used with a **Cryo** character to **Freeze** the enemies which prevents knock back from disrupting her attacks.

#### ![](/files/-MgIxnnFmBkG9Krj3zWL)

* Beidou contributes to the team's overall damage with her own **Elemental Burst,** and her **C6** debuffs the **Electro RES** of enemies.

#### ![](/files/-MgIxnnLUog7ikP0v89m)

* Zhongli's shield blocks a large amount of damage from enemies, allowing Keqing to focus more on dealing damage rather than dodging. It also reduces enemy **RES**. Zhongli's **Elemental Burst** provides a **Petrify** Debuff to enemies allowing for a window to attack without worrying about knock back from Keqing's **Charged Attacks**.

#### ![](/files/-Mgcxx1BeuVRbN_QzLiq)

* Keqing pairs well with **Anemo** characters as the **Viridescent Venerer** 4-set can debuff **Electro** **RES** on enemies.
* Kazuha provides buffs to **Elemental DMG** with **Swirl** reactions.
* Venti is used primarily on **Electro** Keqing teams. He can keep enemies grouped and damage can be dealt to all enemies trapped in his **Elemental Burst** with Keqing's **Elemental Skill** and **Burst**.

#### ![](/files/-MgJpixuYH9QB1hQ-YGF)

* **Cryo** support characters such work well with **Physical** Keqing as the **Superconduct** **Elemental Reaction** debuffs enemies' **Physical RES**.

## Does Not Work Well With

#### ![](/files/-MgIxnn0izIXtNz-_oRm)

* Chongyun's **Elemental Skill** will infuse Keqing's **Normal** and **Charged Attacks** with **Cryo**. This also overrides Keqing's **Electro** infusion from her **Elemental Skill.**

* Venti is almost a requirement in this team due to **Overload** causing knock back on smaller enemies.

* Do not recast Keqing's **Elemental Skill**. It should be detonated via **Charged Attack** to avoid **Electro** infusion.
* The 3rd and 4th slots in the team are flexible and their main role is to provide buffs, debuffs or other utility effects.
