Freminet vs Razor

Calculating diver vs. instinctive wolf boy

TL;DR — Quick Pick

Pick Freminet if…

  • If you enjoy a more rhythmic, technical combat style
  • When utilizing Shatter and Freeze mechanics
  • For a more consistent Physical damage output without Burst

Pick Razor if…

  • If you want a simple, high-speed 'unga bunga' playstyle
  • When you want to try 'Rainbow' (Overload/Burgeon) builds
  • For a character that batteries themselves very well
Verdict

Razor is easier to pilot and more flexible with modern 'rainbow' teams. Freminet is a more cohesive Physical/Cryo carry but is slightly more difficult to play optimally.

With Freminet

Fischl provides Freminet with easy access to Superconduct via Oz, reducing enemy Physical RES and boosting his Pers damage. Her off-field damage and energy generation help Freminet maintain his rotations and overall DPS output.

With Razor

Fischl is the ideal battery for Razor, generating a constant stream of Electro particles to keep his Burst uptime at 100%. Oz's coordinated attacks also help Razor trigger reactions and maintain a high level of sustained Electro damage.
