Weapon's effect
Increases Shield Strength by 20% (25%, 30%, 35%, 40%). Scoring hits on opponents increases ATK by 4% (5%, 6%, 7%, 8%) for 8s. Max 5 stacks. Can only occur once every 0.3s. While protected by a shield, this ATK increase effect is increased by 100%.
Best for characters
Vortex Vanquisher is considered the best-in-slot weapon for Zhongli if he’s built as a main DPS.
Its passive effect makes it an ideal choice for Polearm characters who are consistently protected by any form of shield, gaining significant ATK bonuses and shield strength.
Its reliance on shields makes it niche. While its high Base ATK and ATK% are great, other 5-star polearms are often more universally beneficial for most Polearm DPS characters.
How to obtain?
From Weapon Event Banner
You can get Vortex Vanquisher from time-limited Weapon Event Banners by using your Intertwined Fate to make Wishes. These banners feature specific 5★ and 4★ weapons with higher drop rates. The pity system ensures you’ll get a 5★ weapon within 80 pulls and a 4★ within 10. Check current banner details to see which weapons are available, as they change every few weeks (usually 2 times per patch).
