Summit Shaper is a great sword for several characters in Genshin Impact. Main DPS characters often have better options than a weapon with an ATK% substat. However, Keqing and Ayaka can benefit from the sword's stacked ATK buffs. Moreover, with a shield support like Zhongli, the main DPS can benefit from the added shield bonus.

Summit Shaper can work very well with sub-DPS characters as well. When Albedo is built for burst support, Summit Shaper becomes one of his best possible weapons. Players just need to land a few hits with him to max out the ATK bonus before using their burst.

Also, as a Geo character, it's very easy for Albedo to create a shield and take advantage of Summit Shaper's shield buff.

Summit Shaper may not be the most popular 5-star sword in Genshin Impact, but the weapon can still be very useful when used correctly. Players using Summit Shaper should try to maintain maximum stacks on the sword for its 20% ATK buff, or even more if the weapon is refined.
