Wolf’s Gravestone is a 5 Star Claymore that has been in Genshin Impact since its release with version 1.0, and is permanently available on Standard and Weapon wishes, occasionally receiving a rateup on the latter. Wolf’s Gravestone has a %ATK substat alongside a passive that grants even more %ATK and has a party-wide buff that boosts ATK even further when it hits targets under a certain percentage of health. This makes it not only one of the most potent claymores in the game for main DPS purposes but also gives it a great niche for support usage as well!

Story
The Knight of Boreas' journey ended at the city of Barbatos.
Wandering souls attract each other, boundless freedom begets only anxiety.
Upon entering the city, the Knight of Boreas' companion bade him farewell in silence.
For the free-spirited Wolf resented the stone walls and lamplight, and yearned for the open wilds.
The Knight of Boreas' heart remained free, though his flesh was inside the prison-like city.
Meanwhile, the windborne Wolf roamed the forest in the flesh, while his heart remained loyal to the Knight.
The Knight of Boreas rode again to hunt. The Wolf followed his scent into battle.
Still one were they, the Wolf and the Knight.
Though one they were, death comes for beasts sooner than men.
Laying down his sword as a gravestone, the Knight of Boreas buried the Wolf in the remote countryside.
The Knight of Boreas then left the city behind, living instead the wandering life of a lone wolf.
Yet the eternal wolf spirit remained here,
Watching over the land the Knight once protected.

FAQs
Can you still get the Wolf’s Gravestone?
Yes! As one of the base 5 star weapons initially introduced in version 1.0, Wolf’s Gravestone can always be rolled from either standard wishes or weapon event wishes. As always, this is subject to change whenever. It occasionally receives a rate up on the latter, so be on the lookout to roll for it and significantly increase your chances of acquiring it!
Who is Wolf’s Gravestone BiS for?
Diluc is the best user of the weapon by far. As a Pyro character, he can get an absolutely outrageous amount of %ATK thanks to his element’s resonance that pairs very well with the stats of WGS. It also makes his teammates that much stronger as well. Beidou is also another character who uses the weapon extremely well, especially in Burst focused builds.
Is Wolf’s Gravestone good?
Wolf’s Gravestone has a very high baseline level of effectiveness due to its multiple bonuses to %ATK, even giving some out as a party wide buff due to its execute-like mechanic on its passive. The only main difficulty in using it is making sure you pair it with a sufficient level of Crit Rate/Crit DMG since it lacks it as a substat.
Final Thoughts
Wolf’s Gravestone is a potent generalist option as a 5 Star Claymore that performs very well in just about any capacity, thanks to both its considerable selfish as well as teamwide boons to %ATK that are very desirable to just about any team composition. It is absolutely worth investing serious resources into should you be fortunate enough to wish for it.
