Who is the Aqua Simulacra Good For?
The Aqua Simulacra is great for DPS characters because of the bonus to Crit DMG and overall damage dealt. Not a lot of characters will benefit from the HP boost but that's not really an issue.
It's also a great bow for Sub-DPS characters who can deal damage off-field because the bonus remains even if you swap the user out!
Is the Aqua Simulacra good for Ganyu?
The Aqua Simulacra is great for Ganyu! It's even replaced the Amos' Bow as her best weapon. This is because the additional Crit Damage and extra 20% damage boost will greatly benefit Ganyu. The HP increase won't be of much use to her though.

Is the Aqua Simulacra good for Childe?
The Aqua Simulacra is great for Childe, and it's even one of his top 3 weapons! Childe benefits from the additional Crit Damage and the extra 20% damage, but the HP boost doesn't really do anything for him.

Is the Aqua Simulacra good for Venti?
The Aqua Simulacra is good for Venti, and is even one of his best weapons! Since you normally cast Venti's Elemental Burst and swap to your DPS, the Aqua Simulacra's damage boost even for off-field users is a great boost to passive damage.

Is the Aqua Simulacra good for Yoimiya?
The Aqua Simulacra is a good weapon for a DPS Yoimiya solely because of the damage boost.
