Klee, one of the cutest characters in Genshin Impact, is quite the troublemaker. Klee's playtime isn't like other playtimes because it might be risky if she isn't being monitored, which is why Jean is always on the lookout anytime Klee tries to run. Despite her ability to create huge bombs, Klee is still regarded as a child who enjoys fooling about, making friends, and playing with others.
Klee is a Pyro DPS with a lot of damage potential thanks to her Normal Attack, Skill, and Burst. She can be classified as a Pyro carry due to her high damage output and her ability to trigger consistent Elemental Reactions.
Most Useful Passive Talents Ever
"All of My Treasures!" is Klee's Passive Talent, which allows the player to see Mondstadt Local Specialties on the mini-map, making farming for these items much easier. Monstadt Character Ascension materials are found all over the region, so make sure to use Klee to get the most out of this ability.
Pounding Surprise, Klee's other Passive Talent, has a 50 percent chance of granting an Explosive Spark from her Normal Attacks. Not only will explosive sparks strengthen her next Charged Attack, but they will also remove the stamina cost. Very useful talent indeed!
Best Artifacts
In Elemental Reactions based compositions, a full Crimson Witch of Flames set is the best option for her. The initial 2-piece set's 15 percent Pyro DMG Bonus long with Overload and Burning damage buff of 40 percent is excellent. Klee won't be vaporizing every hit regardless of supports, but the 15 percent DMG bonus to trigger Vaporize reactions is just too powerful.
Alternatively, you can also use the 2-piece Gladiator’s Finale or 2-piece Shimenawa’s Reminiscence for the 18 percent attack bonus.
She Doesn't Need A 5-Star Weapon!
If you have been playing Genshin Impact for a long time, then you probably have an R5 The Widsith. Even though it is a 4-star weapon, it has some deadly damage potential. You can get an Attack buff or Elemental Damage buff or Elemental Mastery buff every 30 seconds. Not bad for a 4-star weapon!
Other options that you can consider are Dodoco Tales and Solar Pearl. Dodoco Tales was released in the Genshin Impact 1.6 update and was available for free, while the Solar Pearl was the Battle Pass Weapon.
Very Powerful Without Constellations
Klee is quite powerful without any constellations as she deals quite a lot of damage. As generally accepted by the community, C2 is the recommended stopping point for Klee's constellations for light spenders.
It reduces enemies' defense by a significant amount and increases the overall DPS of your party. The debuff duration is ten seconds, but it can be extended if you manage to pull enemies into any leftover mine.
Normal Attack Playstyle
Klee's Normal and Charged Attack combos have extended animations that leave you vulnerable to enemy attacks. You can avoid this by jumping or dashing to stop the animation and repositioning her to avoid any imminent attacks.
This fast animation canceling technique is called ‘Machine Gun’ and it increases your overall DPS by 40 percent on average. You will need to practice the timing on hilichurls if you want to get good at it. You can use one or two Normal Attacks and then a charged attack for best results.
Use Jumpty Dumpty Wisely
Klee's Elemental Skill, Jumpty Dumpty, allows her to toss a bouncing bomb that will deal Pyro damage with each bounce. The bomb will break apart into smaller mines at the end of the third bounce and when one of them comes in contact with an enemy, it will explode.
Since you start off with two charges on her Elemental Skill, you need to plan your rotations carefully to deal a ton of damage. An ideal combo is to use her Elemental Skill and switch to an Anemo character to pull the mines and enemies for a huge blast.
Don't Switch After Her Burst!
Klee's Burst constantly inflicts Pyro and explosive damage to enemies. It's similar to her Charge Attack, except it'll keep hitting the same target until it's eliminated. Her Burst will hit the target enemy irrespective of its height or distance from her. Her Burst can even hit Ruin Hunters and Eye of Storm in the air.
An important thing to note is If Klee is switched out during her Elemental Burst, it will be canceled. As a result, you should only change characters once her Elemental Burst is complete. That’s why she is regarded as a selfish DPS, and you will only benefit from her as an on-field damage dealer.
Building A Team With Klee
Klee's biggest issue is that she has the lowest health of the Catalyst users, leaving her very squishy and easy to kill. Her chances of surviving are low, and she will require support. You can add a healer like Bennett who can also increase Attack due to Pyro resonance.
A Hydro character like Xingqiu and Zhongli/Noelle for shields will complete her ideal team. She can deal massive vaporize damage using Xingqiu’s Rain Swords and the shields will protect her if her health is running low.
