Sucrose Best Build & Stat Priority

Role: Support

Sucrose is a 4-star Anemo Catalyst character from Mondstadt who excels in the Support role. Ascending Sucrose grants bonus Anemo DMG Bonus, complementing a stat priority of Energy Recharge, Elemental Mastery, CRIT Rate. For the Hexerei Elemental Mastery Buffer setup, equip Viridescent Venerer (Valley of Remembrance) with Elemental Mastery Sands, Elemental Mastery Goblet, and Elemental Mastery Circlet. Sunny Morning Sleep-In (Elemental Mastery) is the top recommended weapon, while Sacrificial Fragments serves as a reliable accessible alternative.

This Sucrose build allows you to use Sucrose as an Elemental Mastery Buffer. You want to have Elemental Mastery as much as you have as her buff is reliant on how much she has. Hexerei Build is relatively the same build.
