Skirk Build refers to how players enhance Skirk’s performance as a Cryo damage dealer in Genshin Impact. Her abilities center around Serpent’s Subtlety, a state that temporarily improves her attacks and creates a loop between her Elemental Skill and Burst. Skirk is versatile enough to be played as a fast-attacking unit or as a source of high burst output depending on weapon and artifact combinations. Understanding her mechanics is key to unlocking her full potential.
Skirk benefits most from weapons that raise CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, or ATK%. Azurelight, her signature sword, fits best when she stays at low Energy. If not available, options like Haran Geppaku Futsu or The Black Sword are also effective. When it comes to artifact sets, Finale of the Deep Galleries is a strong pick for general ATK scaling, while Marechaussee Hunter is suited for teams that rely on consistent HP changes. Her optimal artifact stats usually follow this format: ATK% Sands, Cryo DMG Goblet, CRIT-based Circlet.
These components keep Skirk functioning efficiently across both single-target and crowd control encounters.
Using Skirk requires attention to her enhanced state timing. Her Elemental Skill enables Cryo-infused Normal Attacks through Seven‑Phase Flash. During this mode, each hit consumes Serpent’s Subtlety and deals increased Cryo damage. Once this mode ends, her Burst can be used to finish the sequence. Her abilities allow quick reaction-based play with characters who apply Hydro consistently. This makes Freeze team setups a common and reliable way to keep enemies controlled and maximize her uptime.
Skirk operates best with characters who support her damage window and elemental triggers. A strong core team may include Furina or Xingqiu for Hydro application, Shenhe for Cryo buffs, and a defensive or healing character like Diona or Mika. Energy recharge can be addressed with battery-style supports, or by adjusting her weapon choice. Skirk’s role in a team is flexible—she can lead as a primary damage source or support another Cryo unit by rotating in and out to refresh Freeze or amplify reactions.
