Why F2P 4-Stars Dominate Spiral Abyss in 2025
Spiral Abyss floors 9-12? They're beasts—15k+ DPS for F9, ramping to 25k+ on F10, 35k+ F11, and a whopping 40k+ for F12 against lv95-100 enemies. But here's the kicker: F2P 4-stars smash full 36-stars using Vaporize, EC, and Hyperbloom. v6.0 buffs supercharge it—Bloom jumps +200%, Lunar-Bloom at 75%; EC +200%, Lunar-Charged 75%.
Grab these must-haves early: Bennett and Xiangling from Abyss 3-3 (Paimon's Bargains for the rest), Xingqiu, Sucrose. Sink 2000-3000 resin into them—supports at lv60/70 with talents at 6, DPS pushing lv80/90 and Burst at 8-10. C6 Fischl or Xingqiu? They straight-up match 5-stars. R5 4-stars deliver 80-90% of signature weapon power.

Squad #1: National Team Variant – The Classic Shredder
Xiangling as Pyro sub-DPS, Xingqiu Hydro sub-DPS, Bennett Pyro support/healer, Sucrose Anemo shredder. Vaporize at 1.5x multiplier, Noblesse pumps 20% ATK, VV shreds 40%. This beast clears F12 in 8:30+; Xiangling's C4 adds +40% Pyronado fury.
Rotation's simple:
- Bennett Burst (field-wide ATK buff).
- Sucrose Skill/Burst (Swirl that Pyro, VV shred).
- Xingqiu Burst.
- Xiangling Burst/Skill (15-20s cycles, snapshot everything).
Xiangling thrives on The Catch R5 (ER/CRIT Burst godsend), 4pc Emblem, 150-300% ER. Bennett? 180-200% ER, 4pc Noblesse. Xingqiu hits 180-220% ER with Sacrificial Sword. Sucrose rocks ER sands, 4pc VV, Thrilling Tales R5 for +48% ATK.
Squad #2: Taser Team – AoE Mayhem Unleashed
Sucrose drives as Anemo, Fischl Electro sub-DPS, Beidou Electro sub-DPS, Xingqiu Hydro applicator. EC reactions everywhere, massive multi-target AoE. Fischl C6 keeps Oz humming on-field; Beidou C2 juices her Burst.
Quick rotation:
- Fischl Skill (particle city).
- Sucrose NA attacks (Sacrificial Fragments for the win).
- Beidou Burst for that AoE explosion.
- Feed her energy (15-20s loops).
Fischl applies off-field Electro like a boss; Beidou counters for energy at 130-160% ER. Sucrose's NAs trigger Oz, rain swords, Beidou bursts—plus Swirl chaos.
Squad #3: Hyperbloom Budget – Core Explosion Kings
Dendro Traveler core maker, Xingqiu Hydro, Kuki Shinobu Electro trigger/healer, Fischl Electro sub-DPS. Dendro+Hydro seeds chase Electro (pure EM scaling). Handles F12 in 8:30-10min; Kuki stacks 800-1000+ EM (+50 from Dendro), cranks out 2m cores (2s Bloom/1.2s Lunar).
Flow like this:
- Dendro Traveler Burst.
- Xingqiu Burst.
- Fischl Skill.
- Kuki Skill/Burst (detonate city); 15-20s cycles.
Dendro Traveler edges Collei on energy and application. Kuki? 4pc Flower of Paradise Lost (+80 EM/+60% Bloom DMG), lv90 for +20% DMG, 180% ER.
Want to fine-tune Genshin Impact Spiral Abyss F2P clears? BitTopup hooks you up with fast, cheap Genesis Crystals—guaranteed safe, every server covered, 24/7 crew, rave reviews.
Squad #4: Freeze Alternative – Lock 'Em Down
Kaeya Cryo applicator, Rosaria Cryo sub-DPS, Xingqiu or Barbara Hydro. 4pc Blizzard Strayer CRIT rate heaven; Cryo chunks get +15% CRIT Rate. Off-field Cryo application; Thrilling Tales +48% ATK on Barbara.
Keep it tight:
- Kaeya Skill/Burst.
- Xingqiu/Barbara Burst.
- Freeze 'em solid. Minimal swaps.
Artifact & Stat Musts Across the Board
Emblem 4pc for Burst/ER on Xiangling/Beidou/Xingqiu. VV 4pc (40% shred). Noblesse 4pc (20% ATK). Gilded Dreams 4pc (EM stacks). ER targets: Xiangling 150-300%, Bennett 180-200%, Xingqiu 180-220%, Beidou 130-160%, Kuki 180%+. Kuki loves 800+ EM; aim 70-80% CRIT Rate, 160% CRIT DMG.
Priorities:
- Sands: ER/ATK%/EM.
- Goblet: EM/HP%.
- Circlet: CRIT/Healing Bonus.
- Full EM on Sucrose/Kuki; 1:2 CRIT ratio.
Substats? 2k ATK on DPS; skip CRIT on EM triggers. Funnel particles, lean on Sacrificial/Favonius.
Free & Craftable Weapons That Slap
The Catch R5 (Xiangling's ER/CRIT Burst dream). Sacrificial Sword (Xingqiu resets). Thrilling Tales R5 (+48% ATK). Iron Sting (Kuki EM monster). Fish up The Catch free; craft Iron Sting easy. R5 4-stars seal 36-stars. Starglitter shop: C1 Bennett, C4 Xiangling, C6 Xingqiu/Fischl, C2 Beidou.
How These Teams Stack Up – Floor by Floor
National owns single-target DPS. Taser? AoE multi-target blender. Hyperbloom survives single-target hell. Freeze controls crowds. My take (editor's bias here): National > Taser > Hyperbloom for clears—all hit 36-stars based on player data. National Vaporizes second half; Hyperbloom Blooms first; Taser EC spam.
Matchups:
- Pyro Vaporize floors: National.
- Bloom-heavy: Hyperbloom.
Flex Sucrose for VV/Thrilling Tales. F12 demands 40k+ DPS; 800+ EM Hyperbloom shines.
Pitfalls to Dodge & Pro Tips
Over-swapping drains ER. Cores under 2m? Electro before Dendro? Rookie traps. Fix with 180%+ ER on Bursts, 160%+ on supports, pre-casts, 6s grouping.
Nail these:
- Early particles, match elements.
- Animation cancels—practice 'em.
Newbies, build order: Bennett > Xiangling > Xingqiu > Sucrose. Dendro pre-Hydro; C6 4-stars hang with 5-stars.
