Best characters for Sturdy Bone

Here are some characters who are best suited for the Sturdy Bone weapon in Genshin Impact:

• Alhaitham (5-star Dendro)
• Clorinde (5-star Electro)
• Ayaka (5-star Cryo)
• Keqing (5-star Electro)

Characters like Alhaitham, Clorinde, Ayaka, and Keqing can be viable options who can make use of the weapon's passive effectively.

It is worth mentioning that Clorinde, Ayaka, and Keqing are better suited for this weapon than Alhaitham. They are purely attack-scaling characters, and a good chunk of their damage comes from using their normal attacks. Therefore, they will greatly benefit from all the buffs that the weapon provides.

Clorinde's normal attacks come into play when she is in her Elemental Skill mode. The damage during her Elemental Skill is considered Normal Attack DMG and can be buffed by characters like Yunjin. Therefore, the Sturdy Bone will also be able to buff her normal attack damage when she is in her Elemental Skill mode.

On the other hand, Alhaitham is a split-scaling character whose normal attack damage mostly scales off of his Elemental Mastery and off of his attack by a reasonable amount. Though not the best option, this weapon would be useful for Alhaitham to some extent.
