Since the release of version 1.2 of Genshin Impact, Albedo, a renowned alchemist, has joined the roster as a one-handed swordsman with a Geo element.
In combat, he is a great asset, especially with his elemental skill that will bring Geo damage to benefit from Crystallization. In addition, the created podium will allow you to take full advantage of the bonus plunging damage.
His constellation 6 will also allow you to have a damage bonus on your characters with a shield linked to the Crystallization effect, which he will easily produce thanks to his Solar Isotoma. These constellations will allow you to make the most of his skills by giving damage bonuses to Albedo or team members.
He can be a correct DPS, but he will often be more effective as a support.
Check out the different equipment we recommend in order to maximize the potential of Albedo.

Best constellations
Depending on how you use Albedo, constellations 1, 2 and 6 will be the most useful. The first one allows you to have a burst ready almost anytime. The second will be used to increase Albedo's damage accordingly to his defense. The sixth one will be there to offer a damage boost to allies under a shield linked to Crystallization.

Transient Blossoms generated by Albedo's Abiogenesis: Solar Isotama regenerate 1.2 Energy for Albedo.
Opening of Phanerozoic
Transient Blossoms generated by Abiogenesis: Solar Isotoma grant Albedo Fatal Reckoning for 30s: Each stack of Fatal Reckoning increases DMG by of Albedo's DEF. The effect stacks up to 4 times.
Dust of Purification

Best played alongside:

Albedo and Diluc form a good duo thanks to the possibility of activating the Solar Isotoma to combine the Pyro and Geo elements in order to create a shield and also allow Diluc to obtain an additional bonus damage thanks to it.
Ningguang
Albedo and Ningguang form a very good Geo duo and can be played perfectly together thanks to the bonus offered by Albedo.
