The setup phase focuses on establishing elemental auras and buffs before Freminet takes the field. This ensures maximum uptime on Superconduct and Shatter during his damage window.

PB
Physical Build C0Support

C0 Freminet focuses on balancing Physical DMG bonuses with enough Energy Recharge to maintain his Burst. This build relies on external batteries to ensure a smooth rotation.

PB
Physical Build C2+Support

C2+ Freminet gains significant Energy restoration from his Skill, allowing for lower ER requirements on gear. This enables a heavier investment into CRIT and ATK stats for higher Physical output.
