Aside from her extreme loyalty, Sayu is best known for her lazy attitude, as she will go out of her way to spend more time on her most meaningful things, which is just another way of saying relax and sleep. There's a reason for this, as Sayu thinks the more you sleep, the more you grow, so don't try to play with that argument.



But even with her laziness, she has plenty of tricks up her sleeves thanks to her years of training in the arts of disguise, with many abilities at her disposal.

  • Klee (Pyro) or Xiangling (Pyro): Combined with Venti or Fischl, the possibilities of powerful Elemental Reactions can be greatly increased.
  • If you want to focus more on shielding and healing, you can also alternate your composition by putting either Zhongli (geo) or Diona (Cryo) in your party, as any of them can give better survivability, as well as buffs and debuffs.
