Wolf's Bane in Genshin impact — a legendary two-handed sword from the standard weapon set. Claymore is rightfully considered one of the best unlimited options for maximizing the damage of the main damage dealer. With its ive skill, the weapon is able to increase the attack power of both its bearer and the entire squad.

In this guide, we'll figure out how to get the two-handed sword Wolf's Bane, what materials to upgrade it with, and who is best to give it to in order to get the most benefit.

How to get the Wolf's Bane sword

Like any other 5⭐ weapon from the standard set, the Wolf's Bane sword can drop from the Incarnation of the Divine weapon banner upon losing, and also has a small chance to drop from the standard Wanderlust prayer.

How to elevate and awaken Wolf's doom

Resource	Rarity and total quantity
	Lion's Fang Shackles ×5 Lion's Fang Chains ×14 Lion's Fang Shackles ×14 Lion's Fang Dreams ×6
	Chaos Device x23 Chain of Chaos x27 Chaos Core x41

You can upgrade Wolf's Bane using materials, the collection points of which you will find in each region:

• Shackles/chains/shackles/dreams of the lion's fang - material for elevating weapons from the Mondstadt dungeon
• Chaos Device/Chain/Core — Drops from killing Ruin Guardians and Ruin Hunters. These elite enemies can be found all over the map, but are most common in Liyue and the desert.

• Scroll of Divine Magic/Seal/Forbidden Curse — remains after killing the frequently encountered Shamachurls. They can be easily found in almost every Hilichurl camp.

To awaken Wolf's Bane to the maximum level (P5), you need to knock out 4 more duplicates of this weapon. It should be noted that due to the large number of 5⭐ items in the standard banner, the chance of getting this particular two-handed weapon is quite low and it may take a lot of spins to fully upgrade it. With each awakening level, the claymore gets an increase to its ive skill in the form of an additional increase in the wearer's attack power by 5% and a temporary buff to the attack of the entire squad by 10%.

Who is Wolfbane in Genshin Impact for?

Due to the high base attack and the percentage increase of this parameter in the substat, Wolf's Bane is best revealed in the hands of the main damage dealers using two-handed weapons. However, the ive skill, which significantly increases the damage of the entire squad for 12 seconds, makes this claymore a suitable option for two-handed players. The versatility of the sword is added by the simplicity of fulfilling the conditions for activating the ive: the owner of the weapon just needs to hit an enemy with low HP.

Let's look at the characters that Wolf's Bane suits:

Character	Recommendation
Mavuika	The huge amount of attack from the weapon combined with the highest base in the game of Mavuiki itself will allow you to get about 3000 units of attack power and refuse to use buffers for this stat.
Diluc	As a classic damage dealer, the owner of Dawn Distillery needs high attack power, which is what Wolf's Bane provides.
Raizor	Due to his four-star status, he doesn't have the same high base attack as Diluc, but he needs it just as much. Wolf's Bane helps compensate for this shortcoming and makes it easier to balance stats, allowing him to increase his critical mass without losing damage.
Eola	In the absence of a signature sword Song of Broken Piness, Wolf's Bane can be a great 5⭐ replacement. Even though the base attack of the weapon in question is lower than that of the signature weapon, Eola will get it in the required amount from the substat and the gain from the ive.
Dehya	Being another representative of the main damage dealers, Dehya is also happy with the large bonus in the form of attack power, thanks to which you can not look for it in artifacts and focus on other stats. The sword is best used at C0, when damage scales are more based on attack power than on the health parameter.
Kinich	Kinich's damage comes from attack power, so a high weapon base and an additional parameter from a ive ability are useful for him. It is worth considering that it is somewhat more difficult to maintain a balance of crits with him.
Kaveh	Looks great when building a hero for main DD. Thanks to the large amount of attack power, it allows you to focus on finding crit. damage, crit. chance and elemental mastery in artifacts.
Chongyun	Wolf's Bane is suitable for both main-DD character builds and for playing from the pocket as a sub-DD. In the latter case, it is not so useful at the beginning of the battle, since to strengthen allies you first need to knock down the HP of enemies, but after activating the ive skill it will give a serious increase to the damage of the main damage dealer.
Beidou	As a sub-DD, the Southern Cross Captain needs high attack power, so Wolf's Bane is one of her best options. It will not only allow her to deal high damage from the pocket, but will also provide a nice buff to the entire team.

How the weapon works

The conditions for activating the ive skill of Wolf's Bane are extremely simple. To get the maximum bonus to attack power, simply hit an enemy with HP below 30% once. When playing with this sword for the main damage dealers, the ive periodically activates itself. If the weapon is in the hands of a sub-DD or , it should be brought out onto the field once every 30 seconds and strike an enemy who is not yet dead.

In order not to lose damage, it is important to that it is better to use E and the ultimate of the main damage dealer after activating the weapon skill. The rotation in most cases looks like this:

1. When entering combat, use s to provide buffs and protection to the squad.
2. Attack enemies with your main damage dealer until their HP drops to about 30%, while trying to save energy.
3. As soon as the weapon's ive skill activates, use Elemental Burst and your DPS's elemental skill. Make sure that your buffs are active at this time.
4. Repeat rotation as necessary until victory.

It's a bit more difficult to use Wolf's Bane on characters. In this case, you'll have to take timing into and wait for the moment when the enemy's HP drops to 30% or less.
