Hey there, fellow Travelers! Let’s talk about one of the most underrated Electro supports in Genshin Impact—Dori. Sure, she’s a pint-sized merchant with a flair for the dramatic, but behind that entrepreneurial grin is a character who can single-handedly keep your whole party topped off on HP and energy. In 2026, Dori has settled into her niche as a reliable 4-star support, and if you’ve been sleeping on her, it’s time to wake up. Her little genie pal, Jinni, is basically a portable charging station—adorable and helpful!

I’ve been playing Dori ever since her release, and honestly, she’s become my go-to battery for energy-hungry teams. She won’t replace a dedicated healer like Kokomi in pure healing output, but the combination of role compression she offers is chef’s kiss. So, let’s break down exactly how to build her, what weapons and artifacts suit her best, and how to ascend her talents without losing your mind.
What Makes Dori Tick?
Dori’s entire kit revolves around her Elemental Burst, Alcazarzaray’s Exactitude. When you cast it, she summons a Jinni that tethers to the active character, continuously restoring HP and energy. That tether also deals Electro damage to enemies it touches, so it’s not just a heal-bot ability—it can actually contribute some chip damage. Her Skill, Spirit-Warding Lamp: Troubleshooter Cannon, fires a shot that generates particles, helping her recharge her own burst.

Because her healing scales with Max HP, and she needs her burst up as often as possible, your build goals are simple: stack HP and Energy Recharge. Don’t worry about attack or crit unless you’re meme-building a Physical DPS Dori (please don’t, unless it’s for laughs).
The Best Dori Build: Weapons and Artifacts
Weapon: Sacrificial Greatsword (★★★★)
This claymore is practically made for Dori. The secondary stat gives Energy Recharge, and the passive has a 40% chance to reset the cooldown of her Skill after she hits an opponent with it. That means more particles, faster burst recharge, and less time fumbling around. I’ve tried Favonius Greatsword, but honestly, it forces you to build crit rate just to trigger the passive consistently, and Dori really doesn’t want to stay on the field trying to land crits. With Sacrificial, she pops in, smacks something with her cannon, and—poof—maybe gets to do it again immediately. It keeps her rotation smooth and quick.
Artifact Set: 4-Piece Noblesse Oblige
Noblesse Oblige is the quintessential support set for burst-reliant characters. The 2-piece bonus gives +20% Burst DMG (nice but not a priority), and the 4-piece bonus buffs your entire party’s ATK by 20% for 12 seconds after using a Burst. Since you’ll almost always swap to your main DPS right after Dori triggers her Jinni tether, that ATK buff gets snapped up by your carry every time. It’s just free real estate.
If you want to lean more into healing, Ocean-Hued Clam is a fun alternative—it converts healing into AoE physical damage. And if you’re desperate for more HP, a 2-piece Tenacity of the Millelith can work, but I’d rather fish for HP% substats on Noblesse pieces. Stat priority looks like this:
-
Sands: HP% or Energy Recharge (if you can’t reach ~200% ER without it)
-
Goblet: HP%
-
Circlet: Healing Bonus or HP%
Substat hunt: Energy Recharge > HP% > Flat HP. Electro DMG Bonus is nice but not necessary; her tether damage isn’t your main focus.
Leveling Materials and Ascension
Alright, let’s get into the farming grind. Dori uses Vajrada Amethyst stones and Thunderclap Fruitcore from the Electro Regisvine boss. If you’ve been playing in Sumeru, you’ve probably got a bunch of these lying around. Still, it’s always good to have a checklist:
-
Local Specialty: Kalpalata Lotus – you’ll find these clinging to cliffs west of Sumeru City and around Vanarana. They’re a beautiful blue but a pain to collect without a character like Nahida for quick harvesting.
-
Enemy Drop: Faded Red Satin (and its upgraded variants) from Eremites. These guys are everywhere in the desert and rainforest areas, so just mark a few camps on your map.
For talents, you’ll need:
-
Teachings of Ingenuity: farm the Steeple of Ignorance domain on Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday.
-
Bloodjade Branch: weekly drop from Azhdaha. If you don’t get it, use Dream Solvent to convert another material from that boss.
-
Crown of Insight: from events, or by leveling the Sacred Sakura, Frostbearing Tree, or Lumenstone Adjuvant.
I usually prioritize her Burst talent first, then Skill. Normal attacks can stay at level 1 forever—she’s never going to swing that claymore with purpose.
Team Synergy and Where Dori Shines
Dori fills a very specific role: she’s an energy battery that heals. If your team is always struggling to get bursts back, especially on characters like Xingqiu, Xiangling, or even a Cyno who needs constant Electro particles, Dori can be your glue. She pairs well in Electro-Charged, Hyperbloom, or just as a general support in any team that doesn’t require a perfect rotation. One thing to remember: her tether links to the active character, so you need to be mindful of positioning. If you’re running around like a headless chicken, enemies might not get zapped by the connection, and that’s missed damage and energy regen.
How to Get Dori in 2026
Back in the day, Dori debuted on Kokomi and Ganyu’s rerun banners as a featured 4-star. Nowadays, she’s comfortably sitting in the standard Wanderlust Invocation banner pool. Your chances of pulling her there are lower, but she does spook you occasionally when you lose a 50/50 or just do standard wishes. She also shows up in Paimon’s Bargains every now and then, so keep an eye out. If you’re dead-set on getting constellations (her C4 is actually quite spicy for energy-hungry teams), you might want to save Starglitter or wait for her next rate-up event. But honestly, even at C0, she’s fully functional.
Don’t sleep on this merchant—she might just be the battery your team craves. With the right build, Dori brings a cozy mix of comfort and utility that makes those drawn-out battles feel a whole lot smoother. Now go out there, farm those logs, and let the Jinni do the heavy lifting!
