Should You Pull?SITUATIONAL

Situational—Argenti is a PF AoE niche / The Herta battery. Ultimate “For In This Garden, Supreme Beauty Bestows” hits every enemy on the field in one cast. Best with The Herta / Sunday / Huohuo / Tingyun. As main DPS, mostly PF; as partner, spam 90-cost Ult for The Herta. Skip when you don’t play PF and already battery The Herta with Serval/Jade.

Argenti is a 5★ Physical Erudition Main DPS. Skill “Justice, Hereby Blooms” is the primary in-combat spend. Ultimate “For In This Garden, Supreme Beauty Bestows” is the payoff window for damage or team utility. This Phase 1 page covers kit text, gear targets, and pull notes—team comps stay empty until Phase 2.

Strengths

  • “For In This Garden, Supreme Beauty Bestows” hits every enemy on the field in one cast, so Argenti stays relevant when MoC and Pure Fiction spawn multiple targets.
  • Skill “Justice, Hereby Blooms” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
  • Talent “Sublime Object” refunds a meaningful chunk of Energy inside the Skill—good play literally shortens Ult cooldown.
  • When you own “An Instant Before A Gaze”, Argenti’s damage or utility ceiling jumps because the cone was written around this kit’s triggers—not a generic path stick.

Weaknesses

  • E0 without “An Instant Before A Gaze” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Erudition carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
  • If Energy or Skill Points starve “For In This Garden, Supreme Beauty Bestows”, Argenti spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
  • Spamming “Justice, Hereby Blooms” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Argenti is often the SP sink.
  • If “For In This Garden, Supreme Beauty Bestows” is still offline at the end of a MoC cycle, the build is usually Energy/ERR or rotation order—not a missing CRIT roll.

Open with Technique if it helps, spend Skill to advance the kit’s resource, and hold Ultimate for the damage or buff window. Exact teammate order lands in Phase 2.

Open supports first, then spend the carry’s Skill/Ult inside the buff window. Exact order varies by the team tab above.

Light Cones

1
An Instant Before A Gaze

5★ · Path cone

Increases the wearer's CRIT DMG by 0.36%. When the wearer uses Ultimate, increases DMG dealt by the wearer's Ultimate based on their Max Energy. Each point of Energy increases DMG dealt by Ultimate by #2[f2]%. A max of 180 points of Energy will be taken into account for this.

Why it works —Signature / best-in-slot when owned—passive lines up with Argenti’s kit triggers.

For every enemy on the field, increases the wearer's ATK by #2[f1]%, up to 5 stacks. When an enemy is inflicted with Weakness Break, the DMG dealt by the wearer increases by 0.3% for 1 turn.

Core carry for this shell — owns the damage plan and sets the rotation pace.

The Herta

The Herta is the damage seat in this shell — build the supports around their rotation, not the reverse.

Sunday

Sunday is the Advance / DMG amp — time their Skill/Ult for the carry’s damage window.

Huohuo
HuohuoHealer

Huohuo covers healing (and often Energy / cleanse) so the carry can stay on-curve.

E1A Lacuna in Kingdom of Aesthetics

Each stack of Apotheosis additionally increases CRIT DMG by 4%.

Is it worth getting?

Modest E1: Flat combat-stat bump tied to a specific trigger. Helpful padding, not a build-defining unlock.

E2Agate's Humility

If the number of enemies on the field equals to 3 or more when the Ultimate is used, ATK increases by 40% for 1 turn(s).

Is it worth getting?

Stat-leaning E2: Flat combat-stat bump tied to a specific trigger. Clear damage, but it does not rewrite Argenti’s rotation the way a mechanic eidolon would.

E3Thorny Road's Glory

Skill Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15. Talent Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15.

Is it worth getting?

Skill + Talent levels only (+2). Free if you roll into it; never spend currency aiming for E3.

E4Trumpet's Dedication

At the start of battle, gains 2 stack(s) of Apotheosis and increases the maximum stack limit of the Talent's effect by 2.

Is it worth getting?

Side-grade: At the start of battle. Happy if it drops; not a planned stopping point.

E5Snow, From Somewhere in CosmosSkip

Ultimate Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15. Basic ATK Lv. +1, up to a maximum of Lv. 10.

Is it worth getting?

Ultimate + Basic ATK levels only (+2). Skip as a goal—grab it if you overshoot toward E6, never hard-pity for it.

E6"Your" Resplendence

When using Ultimate, ignores 30% of enemy targets' DEF.

Is it worth getting?

Whale ceiling: Adds DEF ignore or shred on the enhanced hit. Only chase if Argenti is your dedicated Erudition main and E0–E2 already feel finished.

Argenti is fully usable at E0. Dedicated mains often stop at E0 before chasing higher. First stop: E0. Endgame target: E0.
