Aqua Simulacra Genshin Impact
Aqua Simulacra is an exclusive 5-star bow that you can get from Genshin Impact's Gacha system.
You can get it by pulling on the Weapon Banner together with the Staff of Homa in update 3.4.
Stats Aqua Simulacra Genshin Impact
Aqua Simulacra's main stat will provide additional ATK and additional Crit DMG in the second stat. So, it is very good for DPS and Support characters.
The additional total ATK dealt is 44 at level 1, up to 542 at level 90. In addition, the added Crit DMG will deal 19.2% Crit DMG at level 1 to 88.2% Crit DMG at level 90.
The bonus given by Aqua Simulacra, namely The Cleansing Form, is also very straightforward and optimal for increasing the strength of the character who uses this weapon.
The user will automatically get an additional HP stat of 16%. When there are opponents around the party, the DMG dealt by the user of this weapon increases by 20%.
Maximum refinement (5th refinement) will add a maximum HP of up to 32% and increase DMG by 40%.
However, VCGamers feels that without any refinement Aqua Simulacra is already very good for characters to use.

Ascension Aqua Simulacra materials
The materials you need to ascend the Aqua Simulacra bow are as follows:
- Drops of Specter enemies (all elements): Spectral Husk, Spectral Heart, and Spectral Nucleus.
- Weapon material ascension Guyun set: Luminous Sands from Guyun, Lustrous Stone from Guyun, Relic from Guyun, dan Divine Body from Guyun
- Drop materials from Abyss Enemy: Gloomy Statuette, Dark Statuette, and Deathly Statuette.
The Abyss enemies in question are the Abyss Herald, Abyss Lector (Electro and Pyro), Black Serpent Knights, and Shadowy Husk (Line Breaker, Defender, and Standard Bearer).
You rarely find this enemy on the surface of Teyvat. VCGamers suggest you look at Enkanomiya and The Chasm: Underground Areas.
Best Character Recommendations for Aqua Simulacra Users
As previously discussed, Aqua Simulacra will be very suitable for use by DPS characters to Genshin Impact Support characters.
The bonuses given by Aqua Simulacra to its users tend to be general and do not require character-specific Elemental Skills and Elemental Bursts to activate the bonus The Cleansing Form of this weapon.
Thus, Aqua Simulacra is a versatile weapon that can be used by all Bow characters regardless of the character's abilities as DPS, Sub-DPS, or Support.
However, when talking about bonus optimization, the best character using this weapon is of course the one who needs the HP stat as a calculation scale for the character's talents.
The best character for using Aqua Simulacra according to VCGamers is of course Yelan. As Yelan's signature weapon, this bow provides a large additional HP to optimize the character's talent abilities.
Apart from that, the bonus also increases the DMG given so that Yelan doesn't only provide support for the DPS in your party but you can also use it as a Sub-DPS that deals calculated damage.
Other DPS characters like Childe, Ganyu, Fischl, Yoimiya, and Tighnari after trying VCGamers it's still very good when using Aqua Simulacra.
This weapon is great for Bow DPS options like Engulfing Lightning, Polar Star, Amos Bow, or Hunter's Path.
However, support characters like Venti also can still use this weapon. However, you must optimally meet the support character's general stats such as Elemental Mastery or Energy Recharge from artifacts.
