Alright, let’s talk about Lisa Minci from Genshin Impact. She’s the Librarian of the Knights of Favonius. Don’t let her librarian vibe fool you. She is a powerhouse on the battlefield. Let’s dive into everything about Mondstadt’s captivating mage.
Lisa: The Rose Among the Books
Lisa is not your average bookworm. She is a playable Electro character with impressive magical skill. She is Sumeru Akademiya’s brightest graduate in two centuries! After that, she decided to chill in Mondstadt as a librarian. Humble brag?
- Role: Electro Catalyst User, AoE Damage Dealer
- Age: She’s somewhere in the 26-32 range. Her birthday is August 16th, mark it down!
- Max Level for Lightning Rose: Her Lightning Rose skill can be upgraded to level 15, giving you more zap for your buck!
Why Lisa Zaps: Strengths and Abilities
Why choose Lisa? She brings the thunder, literally. As an Electro Catalyst user, she specializes in AoE Electro damage. Think stylish lightning storms.
- Elemental Skill & Burst: Her skills are crucial for damaging groups of enemies. They are great for when overwhelmed (or when you want to see an explosion).
- Electro Application Queen: Lisa is great at applying Electro consistently. This is cool because it helps set up Elemental Reactions like Aggravate, Overload, and Hyperbloom. She’s the starter you didn’t know you needed.
- Role on the Team: She shines as an Electro On-field DPS in teams built around Electro and Dendro reactions. Her Electro application keeps those reactions going. Pair her with Dendro for magic. In some teams, she is your main damage dealer, charging ahead! With Fischl, she’s top-tier Electro support.
Building a Lightning-Fast Lisa: Gear and Guidance
Ready to build Lisa into a proper Electro DPS? Here’s how to make her shine.
Main DPS Build: Unleash the Electro Fury
For a Main DPS Lisa, focus on maximizing her Electro damage and reaction potential.
- Stats to Aim For:
- Elemental Mastery (EM): Stack EM! Especially if you do many reactions like Hyperbloom or Aggravate.
- Energy Recharge (ER): Keep her Elemental Burst active. Get enough ER to unleash her lightning consistently.
- Crit Rate/Crit DMG: Amplify general damage when not focusing solely on reactions.
- Best Artifact Sets:
- 4-Piece Gilded Dreams: Top-tier for reaction-focused builds, boosting EM significantly.
- 4-Piece Flower of Paradise Lost: Another great choice for Hyperbloom builds, maximizing Dendro reaction damage.

- Goblet:
- Elemental Mastery (EM): Key for Hyperbloom builds.
