Rumors are circulating that Klee, every Genshin Impact players' favorite little bomber, is returning in Genshin Impact 1.6.
Klee's parents are famous adventurers, leaving her in the care of Albedo while they went somewhere far away and dangerous.
A powerful youth, and the youngest member of the Knights of Favonius, Klee often finds herself grounded by Acting Grandmaster Jean for using her explosive powers for trivial reasons, such as blowing up fish in the waters around Mondstadt.
Naïve due to her age, Klee is often torn between the childish impulse to play and the responsibility of protecting others with, and from, her advanced Pyro skills.
Klee Best Artifacts
Pyro players know the Crimson Witch of Flames set intimately, and this set is what gives Klee the best boost when focusing on pieces with ATK%, Pyro DMG, and CRIT DMG.
The two-piece bonus for this set gives Klee a 15% Pyro DMG Bonus.
The four-piece bonus for this set Increases Overloaded and Burning DMG by 40%. Increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%. Using an Elemental Skill increases 2-Piece Set effects by 50% for 10s. Max 3 stacks.
For players that do not have a full four-piece set, they can use two Crimsom Witch of the Flames pieces and two Gladiator's Finale pieces, focusing on the same stats as above.
The two-piece Gladiator's Finale bonus gives Klee' an ATK bump of 18%.

Klee Best Teammates
Klee is a Main DPS, so focusing on her damage output via Elemental Reactions is key.
Mona, Sucrose, and Diona make for an excellent complement to Klee, keeping her protected while allowing her to take advantage of both Vaporize and Swirl Reactions.
While harder to obtain, Zhongli can replace Diona for a better shield, as well as adding Crystalize to a player's bag of tricks.
In the same vein, Venti can replace Sucrose for better grouping of enemies and Swirl Reactions.
For those looking for a healer, swapping Diona with Qiqi or Bennett will provide that, as well as either the Melt Reactions or the Elemental Resonance benefit of a 25% increase in ATK.
Are Her Constellations Good?
- Chained Reactions - Constellation Level 1
- Attacks and Skills have a certain chance to summon sparks that bombard opponents, dealing DMG equal to 120% of Sparks 'n' Splash's DMG.
- Explosive Frags - Constellation Level 2
- Being hit by Jumpy Dumpty's mines decreases opponents' DEF by 23% for 10s.
- Exquisite Compound - Constellation Level 3
- Increases the level of Jumpy Dumpty by 3. Maximum level is 15.
- Sparkly Explosion - Constellation Level 4
- If Klee leaves the field during the duration of Sparks 'n' Splash, her departure triggers an explosion that deals 555% of her ATK as AoE Pyro DMG.
- Nova Burst - Constellation Level 5
- Increases the level of Sparks 'n' Splash by 3. Maximum level is 15.
- Blazing Delight - Constellation Level 6
- While under the effects of Sparks 'n' Splash, other members of the party will continuously regenerate Energy.
- When Sparks 'n' Splash is used, all party members will gain a 10% Pyro DMG Bonus for 25s.
For those lucky enough to pull Klee more than one, each of her Constellations makes her even more dangerous than the last, a trait that not many characters have.
Just unlocking her first Constellation increases her damage by a lot.
By the time her sixth is unlocked, she becomes a tiny nuclear bomb that even the toughest of bosses have trouble withstanding.
Klee's only major downfall is that she is practically useless against Pyro enemies, though with a good team composition this should not be much of an issue at all.
Players who want to see a Cryo Regisvine or Cryo Hypostasis drop in a matter of seconds just need to bring a buffed-up Klee into battle and watch the carnage ensue.
With the possible return of Klee in Genshin Impact 1.6, players would do well not to ignore it.
