Genshin Impact Wriothesley Guide: Materials, Weapons, and, Artifacts
Materials
As the character Wriothesley in Cryo, you’ll find that Shivada Jade stones aid in his ascension process. These stones can be acquired from either the Cryo Hypostasis or the Cryo Regisvine. For other ascension resources like the Tourbillon Device, look for it from the new boss added in version 4.1, the Prototype Cal. Breguet. Materials for his talents can be obtained from the Guardian of Apep’s Oasis weekly boss. To get a comprehensive overview of Wriothesley’s materials, players are encouraged to consult a detailed breakdown.

Weapons
In the arsenal of Wriothesley, his standout tool is the strategic Cashflow Supervision. On the other hand, The Widsith offers a fun and free-to-play alternative. Be sure to explore our article for a rundown of Wriothesley’s top weapons.
Artifacts
Wriothesley can get away with seldomly using his Elemental Burst, so Energy Recharge isn’t a major concern for him. When selecting a Circlet, focus on Critical Rate as he gains Critical Damage from ascensions. For the Goblet, prioritize Hydro Damage Bonus% over Health Percentage.
Sands | Goblet | Circlet |
---|---|---|
ATK% | Cryo DMG bonus% | CRIT rate/CRIT DMG |
The optimal artifact set for Wriothesley is the Marechaussee Hunter (4 piece). For a detailed look at Wriothesley’s top artifact sets, please refer to our comprehensive guide.

Final Thoughts
Wriothesley excels as a solid Cryo DPS, offering a versatile build and the ability to work well with various team compositions, which sets him apart from many other 5-star Cryo characters.
