Gorou is a 4-star Geo Bow user in Genshin Impact, known for his loyalty to General Kokomi and his role as a reliable support unit for Geo teams. With his unique skill set that enhances DEF and Geo DMG, Gorou is often considered the “backbone” of any mono-Geo or DEF-scaling composition. Players who enjoy using characters like Itto, Albedo, or Noelle will find Gorou to be an irreplaceable teammate.
Excellent support for Geo teams, boosting DEF, Geo DMG, and CRIT DMG at higher constellations.
Energy generation with his Elemental Skill and Burst.
Scales perfectly with DEF-based DPS characters like Arataki Itto.
Easy to build as a support, not requiring high personal damage.
Limited use outside of Geo-focused teams.
Low personal damage output.
Requires constellations to reach full potential (especially C6).
When choosing a weapon for Gorou, focus on Energy Recharge and team utility rather than raw damage:
Favonius Warbow – Best 4-star support option, provides Energy Recharge and generates particles for the whole team.
Elegy for the End (5-star) – Offers massive team buffs, increasing Elemental Mastery and ATK, though it’s situational.
Sacrificial Bow – Resets skill cooldown, useful for more consistent Energy generation.
End of the Line / F2P options – Can be used if nothing else is available, but Energy-focused bows are preferable.
