Chiori is a 5-Star Geo character who was added to Genshin Impact during version 4.5.

While Chiori is featured as the boosted 5-Star character on her Of Silken Clouds Woven Banner in version 4.5, she will eventually return to Genshin Impact at some point in the future when the Banner schedule cycles back to her.

If you want to prepare for if you Wish for her successfully, we've detailed Chiori's Ascension materials and Talent materials so you can level her up to her full potential right away. To understand how you might play her, we've also explained Chiori's kit and Constellations.

Genshin Impact Chiori kit

Chiori is a 5-Star Geo character who uses a sword, and is best used in a sub DPS role, especially when paired with Geo characters that summon Geo Constructs.

Here's a summary of Chiori's kit in Genshin Impact:

  • Element: Geo.
  • Rarity: 5-Star.
  • Weapon: Sword.
  • Normal Attack: Weaving Blade.
  • Elemental Skill: Fluttering Hasode.
  • Elemental Burst: Hiyoku: Twin Blades.
  • Passive one: Tailor-Made - Chiori gains different effects depending on the next action you take after using Fluttering Hasode's upward sweep. If you use her Elemental Skill, she triggers the Tapestry effect, but if if you use her normal attack, the Tailoring effect will be triggered instead. If Chiori doesn't use her Elemental Skill or use a normal attack within a short time after using Fluttering Hasode, the Tailoring effect is triggered by default.
    • Tailoring - Chiori gains Geo infusion for five seconds.
    • Tapestry - Switches to the next character in your roster and grants all party members the 'Seize the Moment' effect, which means when your active party member's normal, charged, and plunging attacks hit, Tamoto will execute a coordinated attack, dealing 100% of Fluttering Hasode's upward sweep damage as AOE (area of effect) Geo damage to the opponent's location. Damage dealt this way is considered Elemental Skill damage. Seize the Moment lasts eight seconds, one Tamoto coordinated attack can be unleashed every two seconds, and only two such coordinated attacks can occur per Seize the Moment duration.
  • Passive two: The Finishing Touch - When a nearby party member creates a Geo Construct, Chiori gains a 20% Geo damage bonus for 20 seconds.
  • Exploration bonus: Brocaded Collar's Beauteous Silhouette - When any party member is wearing an outfit that is not their default outfit, or is wearing a wind glider other than the Wings of First Flight, all party members gain the Swift Stride effect, which increases movement speed by 10%. Swift Stride does not stack with other passive skills that give a speed boost, and its effect does not activate in Domains, Trounce Domains, or the Spiral Abyss.

Chiori Normal Attack - Weaving Blade

Tapping the normal attack button makes Chiori perform up to four rapid hits, but charging the normal attack instead consumes stamina to unleash two rapid sword strikes. Plunging from the air harms all enemies on the way down, then deals AOE (area of effect) damage upon impact.

Chiori Elemental Skill - Fluttering Hasode

Chiori dashes forward, and once this dash ends, Chiori summons an the automaton doll, Tamoto, beside her and performs an upward sweep, dealing AOE Geo damage to nearby opponents scaled off both her attack and defence stats. You can also hold the Skill button to enter and aiming mode and adjust the direction of Chiori's dash.

The summoned Tamoto slashes at nearby opponents at intervals, dealing AOE Geo damage based on Chiori's attack and defence stats. While the doll is active, if there are Geo Constructs nearby, or Geo Constructs are created nearby, an additional Tamoto will be summoned next to your active character. Only one additional Tamoto can be summoned this way, and this additional Tamoto's duration is independently counted.

Chiori Elemental Burst - Hiyoku: Twin Blades

Chiori unsheathes her twin blades to slice with the clean cuts of a master tailor, dealing AOE Geo damage based on her attack and defence stats.

Genshin Impact Chiori Talent materials

Chiori needs a lot of Spectral-based materials.

To get the most out of using Chiori, you will have to level her skills up by using Talent materials, which vary from character-to-character.

For Chiori, you'll need to farm a lot of Spectral and Light materials (if you don't already have them) to fully upgrade her capabilities.

As Chiori has three Talents, you will have to spend three times the Talent materials listed below to fully upgrade all of her abilities, which we've also detailed below the table.

Here's what Chiori Talent materials you need to improve one of her abilities:

Chiori Talent level Chiori Talent materials Mora cost
Level 2 x3 Teachings of Light, x6 Spectral Husk 12,500
Level 3 x2 Guide to Light, x3 Spectral Heart 17,500

Level 5 x6 Guide to Light, x6 Spectral Heart 30,000
Level 6 x9 Guide to Light, x9 Spectral Heart 37,500
Level 7 x4 Philosophies of Light, x4 Spectral Nucleus, x1 Lightless Silk String 120,000
Level 8 x6 Philosophies of Light, x6 Spectral Nucleus, x1 Lightless Silk String 260,000
Level 9 x12 Philosophies of Light, x9 Spectral Nucleus, x2 Lightless Silk String 450,000
Level 10 x16 Philosophies of Light, x12 Spectral Nucleus, x2 Lightless Silk String, x1 Crown of Insight 700,000

Here's what Talent Materials you'll need to fully upgrade one of Chiori's skills:

  • x1 Crown of Insight
  • x3 Teachings of Light
  • x6 Spectral Husk
  • x6 Lightless Silk String
  • x21 Guide to Light
  • x22 Spectral Heart
  • x31 Spectral Nucleus
  • x38 Philosophies of Light
  • 1,652,500 Mora

To upgrade all three of Chiori's skills, here's all the Talent Materials you'll need:

  • x3 Crown of Insight
  • x9 Teachings of Light
  • x18 Spectral Husk
  • x18 Lightless Silk String
  • x63 Guide to Light
  • x66 Spectral Heart
  • x93 Spectral Nucleus
  • x114 Philosophies of Light
  • 4,957,500 Mora

Version 4.6 with Arlecchino is here! You can also redeem new codes for Primogems, and check out our regularly updated tier list. You need luck from the Pity and 50/50 systems to Wish with Fate for characters on Banners, and you always need the right Adventure Rank for events. Elsewhere, we have tips and tricks for beginners.


Genshin Impact Chiori Ascension materials

Just like Talents, you need to use Chiori Ascension materials to upgrade her health, attack, defence, and critical hit effectiveness.

You'll need to farm a lot of Dendrobium and Spectral materials for Chiori (if you don't already have them) to fully upgrade her capabilities.

Unlike Talent materials, you only need to spend the below Ascension materials once to fully raise Chiori to her highest character level. There is also Acquaint Fate rewarded for reaching certain Ascension levels. You can spend this Fate on the standard and beginner Banners to Wish for characters and weapons.

Here's what Chiori Ascension materials and Mora you need to upgrade her for each Ascension level:

Chiori Ascension level Chiori Ascension materials Mora cost Ascension reward
Level 20 x1 Prithiva Topaz Sliver, x3 Dendrobium, x3 Spectral Husk 20,000 x1 Acquaint Fate
Level 40 x3 Prithiva Topaz Fragment, x2 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia, x10 Dendrobium, x15 Spectral Husk 40,000 None
Level 50 x6 Prithiva Topaz Fragment, x4 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia, x20 Dendrobium, x12 Spectral Heart 60,000 x1 Acquaint Fate
Level 60 x3 Prithiva Topaz Chunk, x8 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia, x30 Dendrobium, x18 Spectral Heart 80,000 None
Level 70 x6 Prithiva Topaz Chunk, x12 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia, x45 Dendrobium, x12 Spectral Nucleus 100,000 x1 Acquaint Fate
Level 80 x6 Prithiva Topaz Gemstone, x20 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia, x60 Dendrobium, x24 Spectral Nucleus 120,000 None

In total, here's all the Ascension Materials you need for Chiori in Genshin Impact:

  • x1 Prithiva Topaz Sliver
  • x6 Prithiva Topaz Gemstone
  • x9 Prithiva Topaz Fragment
  • x9 Prithiva Topaz Chunk
  • x18 Spectral Husk
  • x30 Spectral Heart
  • x36 Spectral Nucleus
  • x46 Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia
  • x168 Dendrobium
  • 420,000 Mora

Genshin Impact Chiori Constellations

By getting duplicates of Chiori from wishing on Banners, you will receive her Stella Fortuna. This material allows you to unlock Constellation levels, with each upgrade either improving an existing Talent or Passive ability.

Here are all of Chiori's Constellations in Genshin Impact:

  • Six Paths of Sage Silkcraft (C1): The AOE of the Tamoto summoned by Fluttering Hasode is increased by 50%. Additionally, if there is a Geo party member other than Chiori, Fluttering Hasode triggers another Tamoto after the dash, but only one additional doll created through this method and through Geo Constructs can exist at the same time. 'The Finishing Touch' passive talent is also triggered if unlocked.
  • In Five Colors Dyed (C2): For 10 seconds after using Hiyoku: Twin Blades, a simplified automaton doll, Kinu, will be summoned next to your active character every three seconds. This Kinu doll will attack nearby opponents, dealing AOE Geo damage equivalent to 170% of the regular Tamoto's damage, and damage dealt this way is considered Elemental Skill damage. A Kinu doll leaves the field after one attack, or three seconds after being summoned.
  • Four Brocade Embellishments (C3): Increases the Level of Chiori's Elemental Skill by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
  • A Tailor's Three Courtesies (C4): For eight seconds after triggering either follow-up effect of the passive talent Tailor-Made, when your current active character's normal, charged, or plunging Attacks hit an opponent, a simplified automaton doll, Kinu, will be summoned near this opponent. You can summon one Kinu every one second in this way, and up to three Kinu may be summoned this way during each instance of Tailor-Made's Seize the Moment or Tailoring effect. The effect can be triggered once every 15 seconds.
  • Two Silken Plumules (C5): Increases the Level of Chiori's Elemental Burst by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
  • Sole Principle Pursuit (C6): After triggering a follow-up effect of the passive talent Tailor-Made, Chiori's own Fluttering Hasode's cooldown is decreased by 12 seconds. Additionally, the damage dealt by Chiori's own normal attacks is increased by an amount equal to 235% of her own defence.

It can take a lot of time to farm for the materials needed to get Chiori to her full potential, but she could be a worthy addition to your roster if you're in need of a Geo sub DPS who can also take advantage of the Geo Constructs your team makes.

Good luck levelling up Chiori in Genshin Impact!
