Forest Regalia Claymore Guide

The Forest Regalia Claymore stands out as a versatile 4-star weapon in Genshin Impact, particularly appealing to players exploring Sumeru’s lush regions. This craftable claymore offers solid base attack paired with Energy Recharge, making it a reliable choice for support roles in Dendro-focused teams. Its unique passive enhances team performance through Elemental Mastery buffs triggered by reactions, adding depth to reaction-based strategies.

Acquiring the Crafting Blueprint

To begin your journey with the Forest Regalia, you first need its forging diagram, known as the Tale of the Forest King. This blueprint isn’t dropped randomly; it’s available through a specific exchange in Sumeru. Players must progress through the Aranyaka World Quest chain to unlock the dreamlike Vanarana area, specifically reaching the Dream Nursery segment. Once there, head to the vibrant Mahavanaranapna zone, right before the majestic Tree of Dreams.

At this location, seek out Aravinay, a specialized vendor who trades forging diagrams. In exchange for one Stories of You and the Aranara item—earned as a reward from Aranyaka quests—you can purchase the Tale of the Forest King. This quest item is a one-time collectible per account, so complete the relevant storylines diligently. With the blueprint in hand, reading it unlocks the recipe at any blacksmith across Teyvat.

• Complete Aranyaka World Quest up to Dream Nursery.
• Enter Vanarana’s dreamscape (Mahavanaranapna).
• Locate Aravinay near Tree of Dreams.
• Trade Stories of You and the Aranara for Tale of the Forest King blueprint.

Crafting Requirements and Process

Crafting the Forest Regalia is straightforward once you have the diagram. Visit any forge or blacksmith, such as those in Mondstadt, Liyue, or Inazuma. The process takes mere seconds and requires common materials alongside a key billet. Gather these essentials beforehand to avoid delays:

Midlander Claymore Billets are obtained from fishing, events, or battle pass rewards, while Crystal and White Iron Chunks mine easily from deposits worldwide. Submit everything to the blacksmith, and your new claymore will be ready instantly. Note that refining the weapon later requires duplicates, achievable by crafting multiples with additional billets.

Weapon Stats and Passive Breakdown

Forest Regalia boasts impressive scaling for a 4-star claymore. At level 1, it provides 44 Base ATK with 6.7% Energy Recharge. Fully refined at level 90, these jump to 565 Base ATK and 30.6% Energy Recharge, offering substantial substat growth for energy-hungry characters.

Its passive, ‘Forest of Eternal Tranquility,’ activates after triggering Burning, Quicken, Aggravate, Spread, Bloom, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon. This generates a Leaf of Consciousness around the character for 12 seconds, increasing Elemental Mastery by 120 for the equipping character and nearby allies. A maximum of 4 leaves can exist, refreshing duration on new triggers. This makes it shine in off-field support scenarios, boosting team reaction damage without demanding on-field time.

Ascension Materials Overview

To maximize Forest Regalia’s potential, ascend it through six phases. Each requires Forest Dew Talismans (from Scarlet Harvest events or Dendro Hypostasis), Chaos series devices (Golden Slimes, bosses), and Rich Red fabric (crafting or Inazuma quests). Total costs escalate, demanding efficient farming routes.

• 0→1: 5k Mora, 3 Copper Talisman of Forest Dew, 3 Chaos Storage, 2 Faded Red Satin.
• 1→2: 15k Mora, 3 Iron Talisman, 12 Chaos Storage, 8 Faded Red Satin.
• 2→3: 20k Mora, 6 Iron Talisman, 6 Chaos Module, 6 Trimmed Red Silk.
• 3→4: 30k Mora, 3 Silver Talisman, 12 Chaos Module, 9 Trimmed Red Silk.
• 4→5: 35k Mora, 6 Silver Talisman, 12 Chaos Device, 12 Rich Red Brocade.
• 5→6: 45k Mora, 6 Golden Talisman, 12 Chaos Core, 18 Rich Red Brocade.

Overall, you’ll need around 107k Mora, escalating Talismans (Copper to Golden), Chaos items from Storage to Core, and fabrics from Faded to Rich. Plan farming sessions around world bosses and domains for efficiency.

Best Characters for Forest Regalia

This claymore excels on supports who trigger Dendro reactions off-field. Its Energy Recharge sustains burst rotations, while the EM buff amplifies team damage.

• Dori: Perfect for Hyperbloom teams; her off-field healing and Electro application pair with EM gains for stronger blooms.
• Dehya: Pyro off-field damage triggers reactions, benefiting from ER for frequent bursts and team-wide EM.
• Sayu: In Dendro setups, her EM-scaling heals activate passive via swirl-Dendro reactions, providing sustain.
• Other Fits: Collei, Yaoyao for Dendro cores; experiment with claymore users like Beidou for niche Aggravate.

For DPS Tier, it’s middling (B-rank), but Support Tier hits A-rank due to utility.

Team Synergies and Build Tips

Integrate Forest Regalia into Dendro-centric comps like Bloom or Aggravate. Pair with Nahida or Baizhu for cores, Kuki/Fischl for Hyperbloom, and Xiangling/Thoma for Burgeon. Prioritize ER sands, EM goblet, and Crit/EM circlet on wielder. Signature artifact sets like Deepwood Memories or Gilded Dreams enhance reaction output.

Refine to R5 for 40%+ EM buffs in prolonged fights. In endgame like Spiral Abyss, it outperforms many 4-stars for battery roles.
