Charlotte is a brand-new Ice Catalyst user in Genshin Impact. Here is everything you need to learn about the character including her abilities, best weapons, artifacts, and more.

Charlotte made her first major appearance several months back in an Inazuma event. However, with the release of Fontaine, she is finally set to become playable in the game.

Charlotte is basically a healer, but her Elemental Skill works very similar to Nahida. She is very good at her own job and can work quite well in freeze comps. There is a high probability that you will get Charlotte while pulling for Furina in Genshin Impact.

Hence, here is all you need to know regarding the character.

Charlotte abilities in Genshin Impact

A screenshot from the game Genshin Impact

Charlotte’s ultimate can heal players in Genshin Impact

Normal Attack- Cool Color Capture

Normal Attack: Taking aim at targets using Monsieur Verite, her custom Kamera, Charlotte performs up to 3 consecutive attacks, dealing Cryo DMG.

Charged Attack: Consumes a fixed amount of Stamina, and after a moment’s preparation, will deploy Monsieur Verite to deal AoE Cryo DMG.

Plunging Attack Gathering the power of Cryo, Charlotte plunges toward the ground, dealing DMG to all opponents in her path and dealing AoE Cryo DMG upon landing.

Arkhe: Pnema– At certain intervals, upon using a Charged Attack, Charlotte will cause a Spiritbreath Thorn to descend and pierce opponents, dealing Pneuma-aligned AoE Cryo DMG.

Skill- Framing: Freezing Point Composition

Using the keen instincts of an ace reporter, Charlotte uses her photography skills to produce different effects based on whether the ability is Tapped or Held.

Tap

Takes a snapshot using Monsieur Verite, dealing AoE Cryo DMG to opponents in front of her and applying Snappy Silhouette to a maximum of 5 opponents. During this effect’s duration, it will deal Cryo DMG to affected opponents at intervals.

Hold

Popping Monsieur Verite’s viewfinder open, Charlotte enters Composition Mode, and during this time, the viewfinder will expand as you hold until you reach a Finisher Frame state. In this state, Charlotte can move and change direction freely.
When the hold state ends, Monsieur Verite will deal Cryo DMG to all opponents locked on within the viewfinder, and apply the same Snappy Silhouette as Tap Mode does to them. If you unleash this ability only after reaching Finisher Frame, you will instead apply Focused Impression, which lasts longer and deals more DMG, although the Skill CD will be longer.
Composition Mode lasts a maximum of 15s and allows a maximum of 5 opponents to be selected.

Ultimate- Skill Point: Comprehensive Confirmation

Condensing ice to create The Steambird’s signature, Charlotte creates a Newsflash Field that will deal AoE Cryo DMG and restores HP for all party members based on Charlotte’s ATK.
Newsflash Field

While the ability is active, Monsieur Verite will deal Cryo DMG at intervals to opponents within its AoE.
Will continuously restore HP to active character(s) within its AoE based on Charlotte’s ATK.

Charlotte Constellations in Genshin Impact

Charlotte constellations enhance her effectiveness in the game

Level 1- A Need to Verify Facts: After Still Photo: Comprehensive Confirmation heals a character, it will mark them with Verification, which will heal them once every 2s for 80% of Charlotte’s ATK. This effect lasts 6s.

Level 2- A Duty to Pursue Truth: When using Framing: Freezing Point Composition, when Monsieur Verite hits 1/2/3 (or more) opponents, Charlotte’s own attack will be increased by 10%/20%/30% for 12s.

Level 3- An Imperative to Independence: Increases the Level of Still Photo: Comprehensive Confirmation by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Level 4- A Responsibility to Oversee: When Still Photo: Comprehensive Confirmation hits an opponent marked by Speedy Silhouette or Focused Impression, it will deal 10% more DMG and restore 2 Energy to Charlotte. This restoration can be triggered 5 times every 20s.

Level 5- A Principle of Conscience: Increases the Level of Framing: Freezing Point Composition by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Level 6- A Summation of Interest: When the active character’s Normal and Charged Attacks hit an opponent marked by Framing: Freezing Point Composition’s Focused Impression, Monsieur Verite will initiate a follow-up attack that deals 180% of Charlotte’s ATK as AoE Cryo DMG and heals active character(s) within the AoE for 42% of Charlotte’s ATK. This effect can be triggered once every 6s, and both DMG and healing done this way will be considered as having been done by Charlotte’s Elemental Burst.

Best Charlotte weapons in Genshin Impact

Skyward Atlas is a very good weapon for Charlotte

Charlotte can use a wide range of weapons in Genshin Impact. If you are looking for a 5-star weapon, you can go for Skyward Atlas as she benefits quite a lot from the ATK% buff. You can also use Kagura’s Verity if you are planning to run Charlotte as a sub-DPS unit.

If you are looking for 4-star options, Favonius Codex and Oathsworn Eye are very good choices. Favonius Codex is easy to obtain, but Oathsword Eye was a reward from an event in Enkanomiya.
