!!! In the video, I did not correctly calculate the Skyward fix value. The correct formula is (313534-9466)/(173, 6+100)*(173, 6+36, 8*1, 2+100)+9466=362612 (+21545 vs Rainslasher) !!!

I think it's wrong to compare two fights with different weapons, because there are too many mismatches - the randomness of crits, the sequence of hits, the dependence of damage on which hit caused the reaction, the inconstancy of some buffs + this all applies to each of the 4 characters in the team!

In order to try to correctly compare weapons, I did the following:
1. Compared the damage of critical hits from both weapons.
2. Recorded all of Diluc’s attacks when killing the boss. This allows you to more accurately determine the damage from Diluc, excluding the damage of other characters from the team.
3. Multiplied attacks by their critical damage. This helps to eliminate the randomness of critical hits, since the critical chance is the same in both cases.
4. Made an adjustment to take into account the energy recharge from the Skyward Pride, since this characteristic does not directly affect the damage.
Thus, I tried to achieve the most correct comparison. The only variable factor is actually killing the boss, as each attempt is unique.

Summary:
1. If you do not have enough energy recharge and character damage depends on burst, then Skyward Pride is definitely better. It does not depend on reactions and does not require additional conditions, because of which it is stable and versatile, and also helps against bosses, since you do not gain energy from killing weak enemies. You will definitely get more total damage with the right substats in artifacts.
2. Rainslasher is better if you don't have energy recharge issues and can keep the wet and electro status on the enemy at all times. Also better suited for burst (fast) damage or for those who need large numbers on the screen. This can sometimes help in the abyss when you don't have enough damage, but on one of the floors you can kill all enemies in one burst duration (per one rotation).
3. In general, it all depends on your artifacts. Unfortunately, we do not choose substats, but they choose us. Therefore, if your strongest artifacts have enough energy recharge, then Rainslasher is better, and if not enough, then Skyward Pride.

That's all! If you want to add something, then feel free to do it under this comment. It would be nice if even more useful information could be found under the pinned comment!
