Escoffier Best Teams and Team Compositions
Escoffier is a 5-Star Cryo user in Genshin Impact who provides powerful support to Freeze teams. She deals high off-field damage with her Elemental Skill while providing Hydro and Cryo RES Shred and healing via her Elemental Skill. This guide will focus on Escoffier's best builds, artifacts, weapons and best team compositions.
Escoffier's Best Teams & Character Synergies
Welcome to our Escoffier team composition guide and character synergies overview for Genshin Impact. In this guide, we'll explore the best teams to build for Escoffier, including recommended characters, character synergies, and team compositions to help Escoffier reach her full damage potential.
Best Pairings and Synergies With Escoffier
Escoffier's primary synergies are with Hydro and Cryo characters, as she provides a massive 55% RES Shred to both Elements if these are the only Elements on the team.
Thanks to Escoffier's good teamwide healing, she and Furina are a near-perfect pairing. Together, they provide not just large amounts of buffing for your main DPS to utilize, but also great amounts of sub-DPS damage since they will both benefit from each other's buffs.
Although they aren't as powerful as Skirk, other Cryo DPS also use Escoffier very well. Kamisato Ayaka in particular greatly appreciates Escoffier, since unlike Ganyu and Wriothesley, she can't use Melt well. Most of Eula's damage is Physical, but a triple Cryo Freeze team with Escoffier is still far stronger for her than a Superconduct team.
Some Hydro DPS can also make good use of Escoffier. In Neuvillette's case, he will only get one Draconic Stack here, so it is not quite as powerful as some of his other team options such as Lunar-Charged, but still a good option nonetheless. Kokomi is particularly useful in the DPS slot, as she provides great healing of her own, allowing Escoffier to not need her Elemental Burst. This is good as it allows her to take much less field time, and not need any Energy Recharge.
The Icy Quills provided by Shenhe's Elemental Skill apply to the whole team, allowing both Escoffier and your on-field Cryo DPS to use them together. This makes her one of the best support options, especially for characters that can swap freely to refresh the buff, such as Kamisato Ayaka and Ganyu.
Citlali can provide good buffing via 4pc Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City and Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers or Starcaller's Watch. She also provides 20% Hydro RES Shred, making her great for someone like Neuvillette. Citlali can also form a strong double Cryo core with Escoffier outside of Freeze teams. Even without her full RES Shred, Escoffier can still deal good damage with Citlali thanks to not only Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City, but also because Citlali's Shield covers sustain, so Escoffier can skip her Burst and not need to build Energy Recharge, and take much less field time as well. This core is particularly effective with Pyro DPS, as they can take advantage of the Cryo application to Melt their damage.
Mona is a very efficient support to use with Escoffier, providing 60 DMG% for a few seconds, as well as Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers. She's usually not the absolute strongest support option, being outclassed by Shenhe for Cryo DPS, but she is a strong alternative.

Listed below are a range of team compositions we recommend you use with Escoffier. Her best teams, however, can depend on both the boss you are facing and how your characters are built.
