Raiden Shogun
★★★★★Electro
Polearm
tested
Raiden Shogun's 90-energy Burst is expensive — without a battery or Favonius weapon, expect to stack 160%+ ER. The Skill generates only 0.9 particles per cast on a 10s cooldown — below-average self-generation that makes battery support important.

Character Details
AffiliationNone
StellarNo
Raiden Shogun is a 5-star Electro Polearm character who scales directly with Energy Recharge — making her unique among DPS units.
Her Burst (Musou Shinsetsu) converts ER into damage and refunds energy to the entire team, making her both a carry and a battery.
She's the centerpiece of National Team variants and Hypercarry compositions
Key Takeaways
- 80-cost Burst with ER scaling — more ER means more damage AND more team energy.
- Musou Ishiki: every 1% ER above 100% gives 0.4% Electro DMG bonus and energy restoration.
- In National teams, she serves as main DPS + battery, letting teammates run lower ER.
- With Engulfing Lightning (her signature), ER requirements drop to 165-185%.
- The Catch (F2P) is competitive — 45.9% ER substat + Burst DMG bonus.
