Thundering Pulse is one of the best weapons Bow-wielding DPS units in Genshin Impact can use, thanks to all the buffs and stats it provides. It has 66.2% CRIT DMG secondary stats and increases the wielder's ATK by 20% from the passives. In addition, the equipping character also gains a buff that increases their Normal Attack DMG by 12% to 40% at refinement rank one.

Here are some of the best units for Thundering Pulse in the game:

1) Yoimiya

Thundering Pulse is Yoimiya's signature weapon, so it goes without saying that she is the best character that can use this weapon at its full potential. This 5-star bow provides an insane amount of CRIT DMG. Additionally, the weapon's passive effects are tailor-made to match Yoimiya's playstyle since she mostly relies on her Normal Attacks to deal Pyro damage to her opponents.


2) Childe (Tartaglia)

Childe is one of the best main DPS units in Genshin Impact. Interestingly, thanks to his playstyle, he can use many bows in the game and still dish out a ton of damage, and Thundering Pulse is one of them. Like Yoimiya, Childe's playstyle mostly relies on spamming his Normal Attacks, making this 5-star Bow a really good option for him.


3) Fischl

Thundering Pulse has a very high Base ATK and provides a ton of CRIT DMG, which is exactly what Fischl needs. Whether she is being used as a sub or main DPS, this bow will always be one of her best options in the game. Players can also build a Physical main DPS Fischl with Thundering Pulse.


4) Ganyu

Ganyu is one of the most powerful main DPS units in Genshin Impact. Since most of her damage comes from her Charged Attacks when used as a main DPS unit, she won't be able to profit from Thundering Pulse's passives. However, the bow has a very high Base ATK and provides a ton of CRIT DMG, so it is a viable option for players if they don't have Ganyu's signature weapon or any other better option.


5) Special Mentions

If players do not have access to the aforementioned units in Genshin Impact, here are some options who can make use of Thundering Pulse as a high Crit DMG stat stick.

  • Yelan
  • Lyney
  • Kujou Sara

However, it's important to note that these units may have other best-suited 4-star weapons which perform better may perform better than this 5-star offering at higher refinements.
