Kujou Sara’s Talents
Kujou Sara can provide an attack buff for your teammates. Her elemental burst can also apply the Electro damage to nearby enemies, making her a great elemental reaction enabler.
Tengu Bowmanship
Tengu Bowmanship is Kujou Sara’s normal, charged, and pungling attacks. She can perform 5 consecutive normal attacks. Performing a charged attack will allow you to manipulate the direction of the arrow more precisely. Holding Kujou Sara’s charged attack for a few seconds will infuse your charged attack with the Electro element, dealing Electro damage to any enemies hit by Kujou Sara’s arrow.
Tengu Stormcall
Kujou Sara is a bow user, making her vulnerable to most enemy attacks. Tengu Stormcall is the elemental skill that allows her to reposition herself while on the battlefield. After retreating, Sara summons Crowfeather’s protection. She will get Crowfeather protection for 18 seconds. When Kujou Sara performs a fully charged attack, the Crowfeather will leave a mark at the location. After a few seconds, the Crowfeather will activate Tengu Juurai: Ambush and deal Electro damage to nearby enemies. The Crowfeather will also give an attack bonus to any character inside the Crowfeather’s range. The attack bonus that will be given to your characters is based on Kujou Sara’s attack.
Subjugation: Koukou Sendou
Subjugation: Koukou Sendou is Kujou Sara’s elemental burst. Activating this will cast Tengu Juurai: Titanbreaker. It will deal an AoE electro damage to nearby enemies and can spread outward 4 times, dealing Electro damage to any enemy on its way. Her elemental burst can also trigger the attack damage buff on your characters, but the effect cannot stack with the same skill.
Immovable Will
Immovable Will is Kujou Sara’s passive that is unlocked at Ascension Phase 1. Whenever you have the Crowfeather’s Cover, you will have a decreased charged attack time by up to 60%.
Decorum
Decorum is a passive that can be unlocked on Ascension Phase 4. Hitting enemies with Tengu Juurai: Ambush will restore your party member’s energy by 1.2 every 100% of Kujou Sara’s total energy recharge. You can trigger this effect every 3 seconds.
Land Survey
Land Survey is Kujou Sara’s utility passive. Using Kujou Sara on Inazuma Expeditions will reduce her expedition duration by up to 25%.
Best Build for Kujou Sara
Kujou Sara works best with a weapon that can amplify her attack or provide extra energy recharge. This is because the attack buff she gives is based on her base attack.

Team Compositions
Kujou Sara works best as support and enabler for the team. Having a Hydro character in your team allows you to deal huge AoE damage to your enemies.
Hydro-Electro Team
One of the best characters you can pair with Kujou Sara is Childe or Tartaglia. He is a hydro Main DPS that can benefit from Kujou Sara’s attack buff. Childe can also immediately apply Hydro to multiple enemies, increasing your AoE damage to them. You can also add Beidou or the Raiden Shogun in this team composition. Raiden Shogun can give you consistent Energy Recharge while Beidou can act as your Sub-DPS. Xingqiu will be your healer and support for this team.
Budget-Friendly Team
You can also create a free-to-play team with Kujou Sara by adding Kaeya to your team. He will act as your main DPS, alongside Kujou Sara. You can also use the Anemo Traveler to spread the Swirl Elemental Reaction using your skill. Barbara will act as your Hydro enabler and healer for your team. You can also use Kokomi instead of Barbara if you would like a more powerful healer and support.
Electro-Anemo Team
This team composition requires fast rotations and constant switching on the field. You can add Fischl to your team alongside Kujou Sara to get the double Electro resonance which can give you Electro Elemental particles. You can also add Xingqiu and Jean to your team. Xingqiu will act as your Hydro enabler while Jean can spread the Swirl reaction to your enemies. These two characters are great healers as well.
Summary
Kujou Sara is a 4-star Electro character that focuses on giving her team an attack buff while inflicting Electro damage to enemies. Her skills make her a great support off-field. Kujou Sara can also act as a Sub-DPS that has a focus on charged attacks. Her elemental skill allows her to quickly reposition and avoid the attacks of her enemies.
