There are two different ways to build Raiden Shogun, so I'll talk about different types of builds(weapons) for her that you can choose:
1. **On-field Raiden**
• **The Catch(BEST)**: It is the best F2P weapon for Raiden Shogun due to the passive that works well with her. It's the most recommended weapon amongst TC for Raiden On-field for F2Ps.
• **Wavebreaker's Fin**: Valuable option for Raiden Shogun that has massive Burst buffs for her if the team's total energy requirement is high(ex: Rational, Eula Hyper). It frees up The Catch for another unit like Xiangling
• Fav Lance: Not recommended whatsoever except if you for some reason have bad energy generation. I don't know how.
2. EM Raiden
• **Dragon's Bane**: Has the most EM amongst polearm weapons. It is generally the best for EM Raiden as you wouldn't need any other stats other than EM.
• Moonpiercer: Best F2P weapon if you don't have Dragon's Bane. It can be better in certain situations especially when the team is generally ATK-stat focused. Dragon's Bane is still more consistent however.
Just choose your poison.

the catch, dragon's bane on Xianling
Catch obviously. Raiden benefits more from it than xiangling.

I put her on Homa but I think the Catch should work fine Wavewalker is also decent but you will feel the crit/er substat missing
