Odette in Genshin Impact—Best Build, Guide, Weapons, Artifacts, Teams, and Everything Known

Odette is a 5-star Cryo swordswoman in Genshin Impact. With the release of Version 7.0, she complements the new Snowy mechanics by combining high off-field damage with enhancements to new elemental reactions. Thanks to her versatile skill set, Odette is well-suited for both modern teams built around the new reactions and a variety of existing Cryo teams. In this guide, we’ll break down the best build, artifacts, weapons, and teams for Odette to suit any budget.

Odette was added to the game with Patch 7.0, which began on August 12. The first half of the ballerina banner will last until September 2.

Odette is a sub-DPS hero with Snow’s Star Reactions mechanics, making her an excellent addition to future teams built around Dispersion and Conduit. She can play well with both Sandrone and the new Snow heroes. Her main damage and buffs scale with attack power.

Heart Melted by the Hearth

Odette’s signature set, which provides a buff and boosts her own damage. If you don’t plan to farm this dungeon, you can try one of the older sets:

Stat Breakdown:

Frost Feather of the White Lake

When a skill deals damage, the effect “Sorrow of the Lake’s Waters” triggers: +8% Attack Power. Triggers once every 0.1 seconds; stacks up to three times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately. When the wielder accumulates three stacks, the critical damage of Star Reactions increases by 50%, and triggering a Star Reaction restores 4 Energy to the wielder. The effect triggers once every 3.5 seconds and activates even if the character is not on the battlefield.

Odette’s best weapon with the Star Reaction buff is her signature weapon. However, if you don’t plan on obtaining her signature weapon, you can try equipping her with one of the following:

Before building her, you need to decide what you want from her—maximum personal damage (in teams not relying on Constellation effects) or a Constellation buff. In the first case, you should stack critical strike chance; in the second, maximize attack power. And if you have a main Cryo DPS and don’t have enough energy for their ultimate every rotation, you should also add energy regeneration to this list.

Elemental Mastery affects Star Reaction damage, so ideally, you should aim for around 200–400 points. However, this can sometimes be difficult to achieve, so it’s better to focus on stats that are more important for the character.

The ballerina performs best when paired with heroes capable of triggering Star Reactions. New characters will be added in the future, and we’ll update this article accordingly.

Odette can act as a standard damage dealer outside of combat and trigger reactions in teams focused on Melt and Freeze, as well as in Varka’s team.

To level up Odette to level 90, you’ll need:

For talents, you’ll need:

Normal Attack: Up to five consecutive sword strikes.

Charged Attack: Consumes a certain amount of stamina and delivers a blinding strike in front of her.

Dive Attack: Swiftly dives toward the ground, striking all enemies in its path. Upon landing, deals area-of-effect damage.

Deals Cryo area-of-effect damage and summons Solo Reflection. If a Solo Reflection created by Odette herself is already present on the battlefield, a new Reflection appears, and the duration of the previous one is reset.

Solo Reflection

Alternately repeats the dance moves of Feather and Wing, periodically attacking to deal Cryo area-of-effect damage. Additionally, 6 seconds after using an Elemental Skill, it switches to the special Elemental Skill “Adagio: Dawn’s Coda,” during which the duo periodically deals area-of-effect Cryo damage to nearby enemies. Upon completing the dance, the duo deals Cryo AoE damage once, which counts as damage from the “Stellar Conduit” or “Stellar Dispersion” reaction.

Deals Cryo AoE damage, summons its own solo Reflection, and gains Snow Swan’s Dream, which increases the reaction damage of Odette’s Starry Radiance.

Additionally, 6 seconds after using Elemental Explosion, the skill is replaced with the special skill Adagio: Dawn Coda.

If a Solo Reflection created by Odette herself is present on the battlefield, it appears next to her, and its duration is refreshed.

1. Dance of the Silver Dawn. When Odette is in the Guiding Star’s Realm or within 8 seconds after characters in the nearest squad activate Star Scatter, she enters the Radiance – Star Guide or Radiance – Star Scatter state, respectively.

When allies trigger the Superconductor or Cryo Dispersion reactions, they are converted into Star Conduit or Star Dispersion, and the base damage of these reactions increases by 0.7% for every 100 units of Odette’s Attack Power. The maximum damage bonus that can be obtained in this way is 14%.

2. Chosen One’s Spring Sacrifice. When Odette summons Reflection solo, she additionally gains 4 levels of Radiant Splendor.

3. Elegy of a Pure Heart. For every 100 units of Odette’s Attack Power exceeding 1,000 units, the damage of her “Starlight” reaction is further increased by 1.5% of its base value. The maximum boost available through this method reaches 30%.

4. Echoes of Winter Dreams. Marks Snow’s wonders on the mini-map. Practicing dance in your free time can also activate other effects…

After using an elemental skill at the end of a dance duet, Odette deals one additional area-of-effect Cryo strike to nearby enemies. This damage is calculated as follows:

Additionally, her second passive talent is enhanced: when Odette summons Reflection solo, she gains an additional 2 levels of Radiant Splendor. If Odette is not on the battlefield, the loss of levels of “Radiant Splendor” accelerates to 2 per second.

The second passive gains an additional effect: Odette’s attack power increases by 7% for each level of Radiant Splendor.

Additionally, while Solo Reflection is on the battlefield and Odette is in the Radiance – Starlight state, the resistance to the corresponding elements of nearby enemies adjacent to Solo Reflection is reduced by 20%:

+3 to skill level, max level — 15.

Elemental Burst is enhanced: While Odette is under the effect of Snow Swan’s Dream, the damage dealt by other characters in her nearest party’s Star Radiance reactions is also increased by 50% of the effects of Snow Swan’s Dream.

Additionally, when allies deal damage to an enemy with the “Starlight” reaction, Odette performs a combo attack that deals a single area-of-effect Cryo strike. This effect can trigger once every 3.5 seconds. This damage is calculated as follows:

+3 to Elemental Burst level, max level — 15.

The second passive ability is enhanced: when all characters in the nearest party receive Odette’s Radiant Splendor, she stops losing her own Radiant Splendor.

Additionally, the reaction damage of “Stellar Radiance” dealt by characters under the effect of “Radiant Splendor” increases by 25%, and the reaction damage of Odette’s own “Stellar Radiance” is further increased by 20%.
