Secondary Stat (ATK%): 27.6%

Passive Ability: Lithic Axiom - Unity

  • For every Liyue character in your party, the character equipping Lithic Spear gains:
    • +7% ATK
    • +3% CRIT Rate
  • These effects stack up to 4 times (one stack per unique Liyue character).
  • A maximum of 28% ATK and 12% CRIT Rate can be achieved at R1 with a full Liyue team (4 characters).
  • Each stack granted by a party member remains active as long as that member is in the party (off-field counts).
  • Characters not from Liyue do not grant stacks but do not remove stacks granted by Liyue characters.

Optimal Usage & Synergy

  • Team Composition is Key: The weapon's effectiveness scales directly with the number of Liyue characters in the active party (supports included).
  • Maximize Liyue Units: To achieve the full potential (28% ATK / 12% CRIT Rate at R1), use a party consisting entirely of Liyue characters (e.g., Xiao/Zhongli, Xiangling, Xingqiu, Chongyun).
  • Hybrid Teams: Still provides significant buffs with 2 or 3 Liyue characters (e.g., 14% ATK / 6% CRIT Rate with 2 Liyue, 21% ATK / 9% CRIT Rate with 3 Liyue at R1).
  • Refinement Impact: Refining Lithic Spear increases the ATK% and CRIT Rate granted per stack:
    • R1: 7% ATK / 3% CRIT Rate per stack
    • R5: 11% ATK / 7% CRIT Rate per stack (Max: 44% ATK / 28% CRIT Rate)
  • Primary Users: Best suited for DPS or Sub-DPS polearm users who can be effectively paired with multiple Liyue supports/sub-DPS, such as Xiao, Rosaria, Cyno, or hybrid Zhongli builds.

Summary: Lithic Spear offers substantial ATK% and CRIT Rate buffs through its passive, contingent on Liyue party members. Its value is maximized in mono-Liyue teams but remains viable in mixed teams with 2-3 Liyue units, making it a powerful, team-composition-specific option.
