| 2 | 
Homa's staff |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 46-608 Critical Damage 14,4%-66,2% |
Increases HP by 20-40%. Also grants an attack bonus equal to 0,8-1,6% from max. The HP of the character equipped with this weapon. When a hero's health drops below 50%, their attack power is additionally increased by 1-1,8% from his max. HP. One of the most versatile and best spears for main damage with excellent basic attack and high crit. damage. ively increases attack from HP, but does not make the hero dependent on elemental mastery and thus allows Saino to play in various builds (not only from reactions). |
| 3 | 
Jade Kite |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Base Damage 48-674 Critical Hit Chance 4,8-22,1% |
On hit, increases attack power by 3,2-6% for 6 seconds. The effect can stack up to 7 times and appears no more than once every 0,3 seconds. At level 7, damage dealt is increased by 12-24%. Due to the fact that Saino's gameplay is aimed at continuous damage, the spear bonus works stably, and the high base and crit. the chance in the main stat makes it easier to balance between the necessary indicators when selecting artifacts and a group. |
| 4 | 
Subduer of troubles |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Base Damage 49-741 ATK 3,6%-16,5% |
Gives 1224% damage bonus of all elements. Triggering an elemental skill inflicts Enhancement for 20 seconds, increasing attack power by 3,26,4% per second. Can stack up to 6 times. When a party character equipped with this weapon is not on the battlefield, the attack bonus from Enhancement is doubled. High attack bonus and steady increase in elemental damage. Although the weapon is not aimed at the heroes that are on the battlefield most of the time, it still gives good buffs and sits quite well on Saino for lack of other spears. |
| 5 | 
Vortex Vanquisher |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Base Damage 46-608 ATK 10,8%-49,6% |
Increases shield strength by 20-40%. On hit, increases attack power by 4-8% for 8 seconds, the effect stacks up to 5 times and occurs every 0,3 seconds. While under a shield, the attack bonus is increased by 100%. A specific, but quite functional option that requires a shield before activating Saino's elemental explosion for a 100% attack bonus. Only recommended if you don't have any other alternatives or if you prefer to play with Shields/Geos through Crystallization. |
| 6 | 
Skyward Spine |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Base Damage 48-674 Energy recovery 8%-36,8% |
Increases crit chance. hitting 8-16% and normal attack speed by 12%. On hit with a normal or charged attack, there is a 50% chance to activate an intangible blade that deals 40-100% damage in a small radius. Can occur every 2 sec. Saino's ult attacks are treated as normal hits converted to Electro damage, so the second part of the ive effect will allow him to deal additional damage in an area. The weapon also gives a small bonus to crit. chance and attack speed, and the restoration of energy in the main stat will allow you to ult even more often (at the same time, 36.8% is enough for Saino in the DD position to focus on crits and MS in artifacts). The best version of copies on VE. |
| 7 | 
Shining harvest |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Base Damage 46 ~ 608 Restore energy 12%-55,1% |
Attack power is increased by 28-56% of energy recovery rate over 100%. Max Attack Power Bonus - 80-120%. When an elemental explosion is activated, energy recovery is increased by 30% for 12 seconds. Potentially not the best option, despite the increase in energy recovery. Saino is able to generate energy particles right in the ult, and it is not advisable for him to focus on this stat, because of which the overall increase in damage becomes minimal. |
If you have a Kite or Khoma, it is not necessary to knock out signature weapons, since they are completely interchangeable.
Best 4⭐weapons on Saino:
| number | Name | Rarity | Base stats | ive Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 
The ballad of the fjords |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 44-510 Critical Hit Chance 6%-27.6% |
If there are at least 3 characters of different elements in the squad, mastery of the elements increases by 120-240 units. The best epic spear on Sayno. Gives all the necessary stats: crit. chance, elemental mastery, attack power. Due to the fact that Saino often plays in the squad from Vegetation, which also has Hydro and Dendro characters, it is easy to get an increase in MS. However, for mono-elemental units, a spear is less suitable. |
| 2 | 
Mortal combat |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 41-454 Critical Hit Chance 8%-36,8% |
If there are 2 or more enemies nearby, then the attack power and defense are increased by 16-32%; if there are less than 2 enemies nearby, then the attack power is increased by 24-48%. A weapon from the Battle that balances critical hits and increases attack power from/up to 2 enemies on the battlefield. Although the spear has a low base attack, this can be compensated by additional sources of increased ATK in the squad. |
| 3 | 
Montenegrin peak |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 42-510 Critical Damage 12-55,1% |
Defeating an enemy grants additional 12-24% to attack power. Lasts 30 seconds. and can stack up to 3 times. The duration of the added effects is independent of the others. It can be obtained almost for free for starlight, while the weapon gives a high crit bonus. damage and ively increases attack power for each enemy killed. The weapon suits Saino's active gameplay, but is situational at the same time. For example, in boss battles or on some floors of the Abyss, the ive effect will not work. |
| 4 | 
Kitain Cross Spear |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 44–565 Elemental Mastery 24–110 |
Elemental skill damage is increased by 6-12%. Successfully attacking an enemy with an E-tail will lose 3 energy, but restore 3-5 energy every 2 seconds for 6 seconds. The effect does not trigger more than once every 10 seconds, even when the character is not on the field. A crafted Inazuma spear with a good base, Elemental Mastery bonus, and a ive energy boost. Increases the damage of an elemental skill that Saino activates quite often, especially with a set of Thundering Fury. |
| 5 | 
Missive Windspear' Message |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 42-510 ATK 9%-41,4% |
Within 10 sec. after activating the elemental reaction, the attack power will increase by 12-24%, mastery of the elements - on 48-96 units. Free weapons that could be obtained as part of the main event patch 3.1 - About ballads and goblets. The spear, just like the signature spear, pushes the game through reactions, but at the same time increases the attack power in parallel. The bonus is stable and awakenings are easy to get. |
| 6 | 
Storm of dragons |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 41-454 Elemental Mastery 48-221 |
Increases by 20-36% damage against affected enemies Hydro or Pyro items. Not a bad option if this spear is a 5th Awakening and you plan to play Vegetation, Charged, or Overload reactions when you have s with abilities that work even out of the battlefield (for example, with Xiangling). |
| 7 | 
Prototype: Starlight |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 42-510 Energy recovery 10%-45,9% |
Using an elemental skill increases the damage of a normal or charged attack by 8-16% within 12 sec. The effect can stack up to 2 times. Craftable, free weapon with a medium base attack like for an epic. If at least one spear is available, it can be given to Saino for a stable bonus to energy regeneration and attacks both during and outside of the ult. |
| 8 | 
piercing the moon |
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 44–565 Elemental Mastery 24–110 |
Elemental Reactions with Dendro creates a Revive Leaf next to the character that lasts 10 seconds. Leaf increases the attack power of the hero who picks it up by 16-32% for 12 seconds. Any character from the squad can take the Revive Sheet. The effect does not trigger more than once every 1 seconds. It does occur, but only in squads with Dendro characters. Compared to Spear of Kitain, Lunar Piercer is a less stable variant due to being more situational and conditional, despite similar core stats. |
Best 3⭐ spears to start the game or as a transitional option:
| number | Name | Rarity | Base stats | ive Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 
white brush |
⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 39–401 Critical Hit Chance 5,1% –23,4% |
Increases normal attack damage by 24% –48%. One of the best copies at the beginning of the game with a bonus to normal attacks, which Saino actively uses in his ult. The spear can be obtained for free by opening chests in the Li Yue region. |
| 2 | 
Halberd of Millelite |
⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 40–448 ATK 5,1% –23,4% |
Normal attacks deal additional 160-320% damage. Can only occur once per 1 seconds. Just like the Brush drops from chests. A little worse due to the fact that it does not give any bonuses to crits, but quite a good initial spear with additional. damage from regular hits. |
Best Artifacts
Artifacts for Saino are selected with an emphasis on its assembly and gameplay.
- For example, when playing reactions it is best to consider sets that increase elemental mastery or give bonuses from interactions between elements.
- If you prefer to play own damage without focusing on the rest of the team, it is recommended to pick up artifacts that increase your own damage. In this case, it is important to take into the characteristics of the character. Let's say Saino is in ult most of the time and uses normal attacks, so in this case he will go well with the set Gladiator’s Finale.
| number | Name | Set | Rarity | Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Thundering Fury | 
|
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: +15% Electro damage. 4 parts: Increases the damage of the Overload, Charged, Superconductor, and Vegetation reactions by 40%. Aggravate reaction damage is increased by 20%. When these reactions are activated, as well as Stimulation, the cooldown of the elemental skill is reduced by 1 second. The effect can occur no more than 1 time per 0.8 sec. Increases elemental damage and enhances all reactions involving Electro, in addition, when these reactions are activated, the cooldown of E-shki decreases, which in itself has a fairly fast cooldown (7.5 outside the ult and 3 sec. under the ult). |
| 2 | Gilded Dreams | 
|
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: + 80 units to mastery of the elements. 4 parts: For 8 sec. after calling an elemental reaction, depending on the elements of the allied heroes in the squad, the equipped character receives the following buffs:
Grants useful buffs from both two-piece and full sets, increasing Elemental Mastery and Attack Power based on the element of allied Heroes on the team. It is recommended to have at least 1 hero of a similar element in order not to lose an extra bonus to ATK, since the MC is initially present in two parts of the set. |
| 3 | Gladiator’s Finale | 
|
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: +18% attack power. 4 parts: +35% normal attack damage if the character uses a one-handed, two-handed or polearm. If you're not playing on reactions and want to increase Saino's own damage, this set will be one of his best. Since the hero is most of the time in ult and using normal attacks, he will receive a permanent + 35% damage. In addition, the additional attack power will not be superfluous to him. |
| 4 | Thundering Fury |
|
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2+2 sets depending on the builds (attack power + Electro damage, MS + MS, MS + Electro damage, etc.). It is recommended to use as a transitional option until parts of a full set of Gilded Sleep or Thundering Fury are farmed. |
| 5 | Martial Artist | 
|
⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%. 4 parts: Increases normal and charged attack damage by 25% for 8 seconds. after using an elemental skill. A good set at the start of the game and can be effectively used until rank 45 or the appearance of the first legendary artifacts. |

How to play as Saino
The Electro element itself is most fully revealed in combination with Dendro. It can also participate in the creation of reactions Charged and Overload, or in Superconductor with Cryo. But in the latter case, Saino is not recommended to be considered, since his gameplay is focused on inflicting elemental damage. However, the character can play both from reactions in assemblies through mastery of the elements, and build on your own damage at maximum crits, attack power and buffs from s.
Spearman's Primary Ability - element explosion. It is in the rack under the ult (like Xiao) the character will stay most of the time. Therefore, the main task when playing as Saino is to gain energy for the ultimate as quickly as possible, activate all possible buffs and then squeeze out the explosion of the elements, being in it until the end of its effect (since the effect disappears when switching).
Rotation example
- Use elemental skill on Saino until the ult is charged.
- We activate skills and buffs from s.
- We switch back to Saino and use the explosion of the elements.
- During the action of the ult with a frequency of 3 seconds. use an elemental skill, thereby extending the effect of the ultimate to 18 seconds.
It is also worth noting that with the ive talent unlocked "Court of the Pen" activating the E-shki during the explosion of the elements will increase the damage of the elemental skill by another 35% and will release 3 additional Calamity Bolts.
Conclusion on the character
Saino is a pretty strong Electro damage dealer, although, like most heroes of this element, he is quite situational. However, thanks to buffs from reactions with Dendro, including in taser groups through Charged or even Overload (but more specifically). However, it should be borne in mind that the hero acts exclusively in roles of DD, since he spends most of his time in the ult, the effect of which disappears when you change the character.
We hope our guide has helped to put together the best build for Saino. In a separate section on the site monitors the release of new best squad builds.
Squad: Saino, Nahida, Nilu, Kazuha. Is this a normal squad or should someone be replaced?
In general, it would be a good idea to remove Nila. She creates buds that Saino can't activate, and the squad loses some damage: after all, Nila-buds are a separate concept. You can play like this, but the squad loses most of its potential: Nila doesn't get buffs, and she's just a solo character here (unless Nahida gives something).
There are two options for who to replace: if you want to play from Saino's damage (via Exacerbation), then Nila on Fischl/Yae Miko, but they must be well-composed.
If you want from buds/not pumped or not Fischl and Yae Miko, then Nila on Ye'Lan, Xingqiu, Kokomi or Mona (Mona is an extreme case). And Kazuha on Sakuroza, so that MC would fill it up.
In general, I would recommend a squad of Saino, Furin, Bai Zhu and a free slot (you can put Fischl, Ororon, Xingqiu, Ye'Lan, etc. there), but only if you have the resources
Ok, I'll replace Nila with Mona since I have Mona with C2. And Saino with C2 with Jade Kite. Why isn't Kazuha suitable for the squad?
And another question: is furina a good place for mona?
Squad: Saino, Sara, Kollei, Kirara. Is this okay or should someone be replaced?
Saino's squad with a trident from BP, Shilonen with a signa, Kuki with a kazuhi signa and nahida 800 ms. What can be improved?
Saino's squad with a signa, Fischl, grandfather and dendro gg with a heavenly sword, would it be a good option to replace one of them with Nahida, Bai Zhu, if so, who and with whom
so dendro gg on nahida and that's the end of it
Saino's squad, Bai Zhu, Kazuha. Who's the fourth one, Beidou with favonia to charge Saino's ult, dendro gg c6, Bennett, Xingqiu or c6 Yun Jin?
dendro gg, or any other dendro
Hello, what would be better, saino nahida furina kokomi or replace kokomi with yao yao/xingqiu?
Hello! Both Kokomi and Yao Yao are about the same in this team, but one of them is required to heal the squad and stack Furina's buff. Overall, Kokomi is more reliable, it's better to take her.
Hello everyone! Saino with signa, nahida, raiden, kokomi/furina are ok?
I don't think Raiden fits here. She won't buff Saino in any way. And she'll put you in a position: Either Fura without a healer, or a healer who does nothing but heal and a little status. In addition, Saino takes up a lot of time on the field and Raiden will have no time to come out, or vice versa.
In general, put Furu and Kokomi on the same team and you will be happy.
I hope it helped.
I understand, thank you very much!!
Normal pack, Saino, blue, collies and cookies?
Very good team. In the future, Kollei can be replaced by Nahida.
Cookies in full mastery.
what is better, white brush p5 or wind message spear p5?
Greetings everyone, I wanted to ask if it is possible to take a scara and a saino in a pack? If so, what about Sapp?
Conditionally, everything is possible, but in reality, only in the world if you really want to. They are both the main damage dealers, so they require the main time on the field, you can’t use either one from your pocket.
and you want to take turns damaging each other? they don't buff each other at all and are extra weight
good afternoon, I wanted to ask. I have rank 35 and I'm thinking about a squad for Saino
saino
dendro gg
volumes
and I can’t figure out who to put in the last slot of the collegiate or sin tsu? help (I’ve only leveled up Saino, I’m gradually leveling up the squad for him, that’s why I’m asking)
Hello! You can use both Kollei and Xingqiu. If there is a lack of elemental mastery, then it is more profitable to use Kollei in order to gain this stat due to Dendro resonance, but in general there is no big difference between them, you can choose based on who you like better - Kollei or Xingqiu. But in general, it is more profitable for the to invest in Xingqiu, since it will be useful in a larger number of future packs, and Kollei, as a rule, goes on vacation forever after receiving Nahida.
Is it possible to make a national squad with Saino instead of Raiden?
Hello! That’s possible, but Saino is actually not needed in this team, moreover, he will have problems gaining energy for his own ultimate due to the lack of Electro allies + he himself will not receive any boosts, because even the attack power from Bennett’s field is for him not as important as elemental mastery. Let's just say that the combination of the trio Xiangling-Bennett-Xingqiu is so strong that it will any content, no matter who you add to them as a fourth, but they will not receive any benefit from Saino at all, because they do not have the same synergy with him as with Raiden, and it won’t work the way it does with her.

Should I replace the ATK clock with a ms clock?
Plays with Nahida Kokomi and a random dendro
Good afternoon, does it make sense to stage a ceremony for the ancient nobility 2pcs. It’s almost incomprehensible that the damage of the ult increases for the duration of the entire long ult (like Saino), or by 1 time (like Miko or Raiden)
Neither the emblem nor the ceremony work on Saino, since the damage of the ult's stance is not the damage of an elemental explosion, but of normal attacks. That is, he triggers Xingqiu and receives the bonus from the white brush, but not from this elemental explosion bonus.
Does it make sense to knock out a raiden for him now if there is a bai dou, but no fischl, or is it better to skip this banner?
Raiden will be very good for him, in comparison, at least like a battery
Is it possible to deploy a detachment without Yao Yao? (I just don’t have it, like Bai Ju) for example, Saino Nahida Dori and Kokomi (Mona)?
Hello. Replace her with Kokomi for healing, but note that Dendro gives resonance to MC, so Dory will have to be replaced in the future.
