Sacrificial Sword is the featured best-in-slot option. The weapon section also lists accessible alternatives with their Level 90 stats and the situation where each choice is most useful.
Which stats should I prioritize on QIQI?
Substats: Energy Recharge → ATK% → CRIT Rate with Favonius. Physical driver builds can use Physical DMG and CRIT.
