Best weapon for Shenhe, calculated
Crimson Moon Semblance tops the weapon calc for Shenhe at 22,209 average damage on Normal Attack combo. Every row below is the same hit with only the weapon swapped, at Level 90, talent 10 and refinement 1 — the right-hand column is the damage you give up by running it instead.
Each polearm equipped on a Lv90 Shenhe at talent 10 — base ATK, substat and any modelled passive. Weapons whose passive is not modelled show only their raw stats; better a missing buff than a wrong one. Swap any of them in the Shenhe calculator to re-run the whole chain on your own panel.

Shenhe build questions, answered
What does Shenhe scale off?
Shenhe's Normal Attack combo scales off total ATK — character base ATK plus weapon base ATK, then (1 + ATK%) and flat ATK on top. A weapon’s base ATK line therefore feeds this character directly.
What stat does Shenhe get from ascension?
Shenhe's ascension substat is ATK%. It arrives at the Level-80/90 ascension and is part of the character's own stats, so the calculator counts it before any artifact roll is added.
What is the best weapon for Shenhe?
Ranked by computed Normal Attack combo damage at Level 90, talent 10 and refinement 1, Crimson Moon Semblance is the strongest polearm for Shenhe at 22,209 average damage per hit. The Calamity Queller used by this page's preset panel averages 17,658, 20.5% behind it.
What artifacts should Shenhe use?
Noblesse Oblige (4) is the set this calculator presets Shenhe with, and the damage tables include its bonuses. Set effects that depend on the element of the hit are applied per row rather than as a flat average.
How much damage should Shenhe do?
On the default Level-90, talent-10 build shown above, Shenhe's largest single hit averages 11,901 — the table lists its CRIT and non-CRIT numbers separately. That is a reference panel, not a target: load your own artifact rolls into the calculator to get your own number.
Do these numbers include Shenhe's constellations?
No — every table is computed at C0. Constellations that are unconditional and clearly numeric are modelled in the calculator and marked as such on this page; the rest are listed as text only and change nothing.
How those numbers are produced: the damage formula, term by term, and the weapon & artifact build guide. If Shenhe still hits soft, the six levers ranked by damage added shows which multiplier is holding a build back.
