Razor vs Sethos

The Physical wolf vs. the Aggravate bowman

TL;DR — Quick Pick

Pick Razor if…

  • When building a Physical team with Superconduct
  • When playing the 'Thundering Furry' rainbow comp
  • When you need a simple on-field brawler who is hard to stagger

Pick Sethos if…

  • When playing Aggravate teams with Dendro
  • When you prefer a high-skill ranged playstyle
  • When you have access to high EM weapons and artifacts
Verdict

Sethos is the more effective Main DPS in the current Dendro-dominated meta, while Razor is a nostalgic pick who excels in Physical or niche hybrid teams. Sethos provides better elemental value, but Razor is more durable on-field.

With Razor

Nahida's consistent Dendro application and EM buff enable Razor's 'Thundering Furry' build, which utilizes C6 Bennett to trigger Burgeon and Hyperbloom simultaneously. Her Tri-Karma Purification ensures that reactions keep occurring even when Razor is in his Wolf state.

With Sethos

Nahida is essential for Sethos to maintain the Quicken aura required for his Aggravate damage. Her EM sharing also boosts Sethos's personal damage, which scales significantly with his Elemental Mastery.
