You can get it by pulling on the Weapon Banner together with the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear.

Stat Light of Foliar Incision Genshin Impact

Light of Foliar Incision's main stat will provide additional ATK and additional Crit DMG in the second stat. So, it is very good for DPS or Sub DPS 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.

Bonuses given to users are not good. The user of this sword will get a stat Crit Rate increase of 8% in the first refinement.

After a character attacks using a Normal Attack that deals Elemental DMG, the Foliar Incision effect will be applied.

This effect will increase the DMG dealt by Normal Attack and Elemental Skill by 120% from Elemental Mastery. 

The bonus from the Foliar Incision effect will disappear after 28 DMG times or 12 seconds where characters can get the Foliar Incision effect every 12 seconds.

The percentage of DMG and Crit Rate that will be obtained differs depending on the refinement of the sword. Maximum on the 5th refinement, you will get an additional Crit Rate of 8% and 240% DMG for Normal and Elemental Skills.

User's Best Character Recommendations

As previously discussed, Light of Foliar Incision will be very suitable for use by DPS characters.

However, not all DPS characters who use the VCGamers sword feel suitable for using this weapon.

If you look at the bonus given by Light of Foliar Incision, it will only activate if the Foliar Incision effect is obtained.

This effect will only be active if the character uses a Normal Attack that deals Elemental DMG instead of Physical DMG.

Meaning, the character that is most suitable for using this sword is a character who is able to change (infuse) Normal Attack with Elemental.

From the results of the VCGamers experiment, there are several Light of Foliar Incision swords, namely: Alhaitham, Kamisato Ayato, Keqing, and Nilou. 

These four characters can change Normal Attack to Elemental when using Normal Skill first so you can optimize the ability of this sword more easily.

This sword can be the best choice for Kamisato Ayato if you don't have Haran Geppaku Futsu and for Nilou as a substitute for the Key of Khaj-Nisut. 

With a note that you have to meet the required stats such as HP on Nilou from the artifacts used by the characters.

Sword-wielding characters like Kamisato Ayaka, Traveler, Albedo, Jean, and others don't mean they aren't good at using this sword. However, you cannot maximize the bonus given by the sword so this character is better off using another weapon.
