Staff of Homa is a polearm brought back by Genshin Impact as one of the weapons that you can get in the second part of the Weapon Banner update 3.4.

This weapon, which is called one of Genshin Impact's best polearms, was previously featured on banner 1.3 with the release of Hu Tao, as well as in update 2.2 with the release Thomas.

This polearm according to VCGamers for now is the best polearm for almost all the characters you build for DPS. 

Which characters are suitable for using this polearm? Is the Staff of Homa very good and worth it to get?

This time, VCGamers will discuss in detail about the Staff of Homa, starting from stats, ascending materials, to the best Genshin Impact characters that are suitable for using this polearm.

Staff of Homa Genshin Impact

Staff of Homa 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 along with the bow Aqua Simulacra on update 3.4.

Stats Staff of Homa Genshin Impact

Staff of Homa's main stat will provide additional ATK and additional Crit DMG in the second stat. So, it is very good for DPS and Sub-DPS characters.

The additional total ATK dealt is 46 at level 1, up to 608 at level 90. In addition, the added Crit DMG will deal 14.4% Crit DMG at level 1 to 66.2% Crit DMG at level 90.

The bonus given by the Staff of Homa, namely Reckless Cinnabar, will increase the HP of the weapon user by 20% on weapons without refinement. 

In addition, the Staff of Homa will provide an ATK Bonus based on 0.8% of the user's Max HP.  

If the user's HP is less than 50%, this ATK bonus increases by an additional 1% from Max HP.

According to VCGamers, even without refinement, the Staff of Homa is already very good for characters to use.

Apart from the bonuses given, the Staff of Homa has provided quite a large amount of ATK and Crit DMG stats compared to other weapons.

Recommendations for the Best Characters for Staff of Homa Genshin Impact Users

Hu Tao, One of the Best Characters Using Staff of Homa (source: Genshin Impact)

As previously discussed, the Staff of Homa will be very suitable for use by Genshin Impact characters who can provide optimal damage or are referred to as DPS.

The bonus given by the Staff of Homa is indeed felt to be more optimally used by characters who "sacrifice" their HP to strengthen their attack damage.

The more the character's HP decreases, the bonus ATK given by the Staff of Homa's polearm will also increase.

According to VCGamers, the best user of this weapon is Hu Tao and Xiao because both of them have talents that reduce HP to increase damage. 

Hu Tao can "sacrifice" HP when using Elemental Skills so that the bonuses from the Staff of Homa will be maximally active. 

In addition, all of Hu Tao's talents (Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst) are scaled up based on HP. So, the additional HP bonus from Reckless Cinnabar will make Hu Tao's damage even more optimal.

Similar to Hu Tao, Xiao also has a talent that can "sacrifice" HP to increase damage when using Elemental Burst.

Apart from these two characters, VCGamers judged that zhongli those who use Hybrid builds (damage dealer + shielder) are also good at using this polearm.

Zhongli will get additional HP to strengthen the Shield in addition to getting a large ATK bonus from the percentage of HP owned because Zhongli's HP is usually needed at least 30,000.

However, other characters like Rosaria, Raiden Shogun, Thoma (build Burgeon), Xiangling, and other DPS build characters are just as good as using the Staff of Homa.
