Fridge Teams are a surprising team comp in Version 3.0 of Genshin Impact and Ganyu is one of the best Cryo units you can have for this team. Her burst has a huge AoE and her Cryo application is not only reliable but also does a ton of damage. Luckily she’s having her rerun alongside Kokomi as we speak and Version 3.1 is just around the corner so this might be a chance for players to get her before her next rerun which might again be next year.
Fridge Ganyu Build in Genshin Impact 3.0
We’ve already explained how Fridge works in one of our previous articles so in this one we’ll mainly focus on the build and our reasoning. Since Fridge teams depend on keeping the enemies Frozen, we’ll need to focus on EM and since Ganyu’s burst is her most useful element in a Fridge team, we’ll also have to get her high ER.
Artifacts
Her best artifact sets are as follows:
- Emblem of Severed Fate (4 pc)
- Blizzard Strayer (4 pc)
You can also use 2 pc combinations of the above sets including 2 pc Noblesse Oblige as per your needs and stats. If you have enough ER% (170%+) then you can also focus on increasing your EM, followed by your DPS stats. Objectively an Emblem set is the best for a sub-dps Fridge Ganyu.
Weapons
The best weapons for a support, sub-dps Fridge Ganyu are as follows:
- Elegy for the End (5-star)
- The Stringless
- Favonius Warbow
- Alley Hunter
- Mouun’s Moon
- Fading Twilight
- Sacrificial Bow
The above bows are arranged in descending order of their viability and damage. Players who don’t have her best-in-slot 5-star support bow are better off using the Favonius Warbow as her comfiest 4-star option. The Stringless only shines provided Ganyu’s energy needs are met. Lastly, the Sacrificial Bow must only be used if you’re lacking her other options as it increases her field time thereby reducing overall party DPS.
Since the main damage dealer in such teams will be the Hydro unit, DPS stats come secondary for Ganyu but they are still important. Depending on her stats, she could also use another Cryo unit in the part for the Cryo resonance which gives 15% CRIT Rate and another 15% against Frozen enemies. Her best Cryo teammate would be Diona who not only provides a reliable shield and healing for your party but also serves as a battery for your Ganyu.
