Faruzan
Who is Faruzan?
Faruzan is a 4★ Anemo Bow support from Sumeru, a professor of the Haravatat Darshan who was trapped in ancient ruins for a century before the Traveler freed her. Rated A-tier Support, she is the dedicated Anemo support for Xiao, Wanderer (Scaramouche), and Heizou — her Burst reduces enemy Anemo RES and grants a stacking Anemo DMG Bonus to active characters, effectively acting as the Anemo equivalent of Bennett for Anemo carries. Her main limitation is an extremely high Energy cost (80) and low particle generation pre-C6. Source: https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/391897
Kit Summary
Bow attacks; Charged Shots can become Hurricane Arrows under Pressurized Collapse.

F2P Verdict
Favonius Warbow is essential for F2P Faruzan — 61.3% ER stat plus energy particles help reach her punishing ER threshold.
Pre-C6 she needs ~250-300% total ER; build ER Sands and ER substats aggressively.
4pc Viridescent Venerer is her best support set and is farmable from the Valley of Remembrance domain.
C6 is her defining constellation (+40% CRIT DMG to Anemo attacks for buffed characters), reducing ER needs to ~200% and massively increasing the team's damage. Source: https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/391897
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Faruzan buff Anemo characters?
Her Dazzling Polyhedron periodically applies Prayerful Wind's Benefit stacks that grant an Anemo DMG Bonus, and her Whirlwinds reduce enemy Anemo RES by 30% — the combination is a major teamwide DPS boost for Anemo carries. Source: Game8.
Why does Faruzan need so much Energy Recharge?
Her Elemental Burst costs 80 Energy but she generates very few particles through her Skill. Without C6, she needs 250-300% ER; C6 adds particle generation that brings the requirement down to ~200%. Source: Game8.
Is Faruzan worth pulling without C6?
Yes, she is still A-tier support at C0-C5. C6 is a significant upgrade but not mandatory — teams with Faruzan at C0 still outperform teams without her for Anemo carries. Source: Game8.
What is Faruzan's best free weapon?
Favonius Warbow — the highest ER stat bow available F2P, providing 61.3% ER and energy particles for the team. Source: Game8.
