Genshin Impact Calamity of Eshu stats and materials

The main stats for Calamity of Eshu (at Level 90) are as follows:

• Base ATK: 565
• Secondary stat: 27.6% ATK
• Weapon passive: When the characters are protected by a shield, damage dealt by their Normal Attacks and Charged Attacks is increased by 20%. Additionally, Crit Rate for Normal Attack and Charged Attack is also increased by 8%.

This weapon has a good mix of attack stats, including its base ATK, secondary ATK stat, and passive ATK stat. The Crit Rate increase is also a welcome addition. Of course, the buffs provided by the weapon passive are only activated when the characters are under the protection of a shield, which makes having a shielder in the party imperative when equipping this weapon on anyone.
