by Since the release of Inazuma in Genshin Impact we have been able to get a weapon in each new region through the Fishing Guild and Fontaine is no exception for this, since it will allow us to get a sword called the Cinder River Ford through this system. .
Like the previous weapons that we were able to obtain through fishing ( the Capture in Inazuma and the End of the Waters in Sumeru), this sword also offers us a generous amount of Energy Recharge as a secondary stat for its wielder.
For a few seconds, it will be the sword that can provide the most Energy Recharge to a character, since in addition to its secondary statistic, its passive also boosts this parameter when the user executes its Elemental Ability. The bad thing is that the rise of this passive lasts very little and will only work for the moment in which the character himself absorbs the particles created by his Elemental Skill.
ATTRIBUTES OF THE ASH RIVER FORD IN GENSHIN IMPACT
Let’s start with his stats:
- Base Attack Level 1 : 42.
- Base Attack Level 90 : 510.
This sword has a medium Base Attack if we compare it with other four-star weapons of the same category, it has the same amount of Base Attacks as the Lion’s Roar , Iron Thorn and Black Sword .
Its secondary attribute is the following:
- Energy Recharge Level 1 : 10%.
- Energy Recharge Level 90 : 45.94%.
In its secondary statistic we have a very common parameter in four-star swords, since raising it to level 90 will give our character a 45.94% Energy Recharge ; amount that coincidentally coincides with a very old sword called the Poisonous Wish, which could be acquired in the first versions of the game through an event.
His Passive Skill confers the following effect:
- R1 : +8% Critical Chance for the wearer’s Elemental Skill. Additionally, when using this ability, Energy Recharge is increased by 16% for 5 seconds.
- R5 : +16% Critical Chance for the wearer’s Elemental Skill. Additionally, when using this ability, Energy Recharge is increased by 32% for 5 seconds.
On the one hand, the passive of this weapon increases the Critical Chance of the Elemental Skill by up to 16% if we have it in R5, something that will be very helpful for those characters who have the Support DPS role and do a lot of damage . with his Elemental Skill. Capture also had a similar effect on his passive, but increased the Critical Chance of the Ultimate instead of the Elemental.
On the other hand, when using this Elemental Skill we will also increase the character’s Energy Recharge by up to 32% for 5 seconds; this will only help us to recharge more when the character receives the particles created by his own Elemental Ability, but counting this, the 100% base recharge of the character and the secondary statistic of the sword, we will have a base 177.94% of Energy Recharge , which will greatly help us to recharge the character’s ult without having to invest much more in this parameter.
WHAT CHARACTER DO I PUT IT ON?
Mainly, we will look for characters that need a very abundant Energy Recharge in their
build and whose Elemental Skill deals moderate damage:
Lynette is a character that needs a large amount of Energy Recharge to be able to have her Ultimate Ability ready in time, since it is very expensive and her Elemental Ability has a little high ToE, so Ash River Ford can be a great help to improve your recharge.
Also, although the most important thing about Lynette for my taste is her Ulti that allows her to lower elemental resistances while she is not on the field for 12 seconds (if she has Emerald Green Shadow equipped), her Elemental Ability deals quite moderate damage and does not give us it will hurt to increase the Critical Chance of this to give you a better chance of landing a critical hit when using it.
The main source of damage of the Hydro Traveler resides in its Elemental Ability and, in addition, it is in charge of applying the Pneuma energy to the enemies, so we will make use of it whenever we can and we are interested in equipping it with this sword to have more chances of striking a critical hit with the multiple hits of this skill.
Its Ultimate Ability has a cost of 80 elemental energy points and it will cost us to recharge it, so the large amount of Energy Recharge that this sword can provide us will be very useful.
Other characters that take advantage of it:
- Xingchiu : We will need a very high amount of Energy Recharge inXingchiu’s build to get his Ultimate Ability ready which is very expensive and we will also take advantage of the Critical Chance for his Elemental Ability, since if he Vaporizes it, he can reach do a lot of damage. The thing is, even though it works on Xingchiu, the Sword of Sacrifice is still a better option for him.
- Jean : He is another character that needs a lot of Energy Recharge, since the healing he does for the team depends on his ulti. His Elemental Skill has a short ToE and he can also deal some pretty decent damage, so he can use this sword at all.
