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.

Furina
Furina

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.

Skirk
Skirk

Skirk is the perfect Cryo DPS to pair with Escoffier, as they both want a team with only Hydro and Cryo characters. Skirk is also currently by far the most powerful Cryo DPS to use in Freeze teams.

Kamisato Ayaka Ganyu Wriothesley Eula
Other Cryo DPS

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.

Neuvillette Kamisato Ayato Sangonomiya Kokomi
Hydro DPS Options

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.

Shenhe
Shenhe

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
Citlali

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
Mona

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.

Yelan Xingqiu
Hydro Sub-DPS Options

Yelan and Xingqiu are both good Hydro options, able to either be used as alternatives to Furina or pair well alongside her, as they'll both be able to use much less Energy Recharge to deal more damage this way.

Pyro
Pyro Characters

As mentioned, Escoffier can form a strong double Cryo core with Citlali, which is very effective with Pyro DPS in Melt teams. A few examples of DPS that can utilize this well are Mavuika, Arlecchino, Gaming, and Yoimiya.

Escoffier's Best Team Compositions

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. The inclusion or exclusion of any given team does not necessarily reflect overall power; for example, some F2P teams may also be listed.
