Aventurine
Yes—Aventurine is a flexible Imaginary shielder with FUA utility. Ultimate “Roulette Shark” buffs allies’ damage for a short window. Best with Feixiao / Dr. Ratio / Acheron / Yunli. Shield refresh wants ally FUA or enemy AoE hits. Skip when you already have two limited sustains and no FUA synergy need.
Aventurine is a 5★ Imaginary Preservation Shielder. Skill “Cornerstone Deluxe” is the primary in-combat spend. Ultimate “Roulette Shark” 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
- Ultimate “Roulette Shark” buffs allies’ damage for a short window—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Talent “Shot Loaded Right” fires Follow-Up ATKs off ally Basics—damage keeps flowing even when Aventurine is not the active turn.
- Skill “Cornerstone Deluxe” applies a Shield that absorbs incoming damage—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Technique “The Red or the Black” After using the Technique—skipping it is free damage left on the table.
Weaknesses
- Follow-Ups from “Shot Loaded Right” need allies who actually Basic ATK on schedule—freeze/CC on the team stalls Aventurine’s off-turn damage.
- Shield value falls when content is a pure damage race or when the carry already has invulnerability frames—over-building Aventurine’s relics delays the DPS sets that actually end cycles.
- Spamming “Cornerstone Deluxe” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Aventurine is often the SP sink.
- If “Roulette Shark” is still offline at the end of a MoC cycle, the build is usually Energy/ERR or rotation order—not a missing CRIT roll.
Trace Priority
Cornerstone Deluxe carries most of the kit’s damage or utility—level this first.
Roulette Shark supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Shot Loaded Right supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Straight Bet is last priority outside of filling trace materials.
Stat Priority
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
5★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's DEF by 0.4%. When the wearer provides a Shield to an ally, the wearer's CRIT DMG increases by 0.4%, lasting for 2 turn(s). When the wearer's Follow-Up ATK hits an enemy target, there is a 1% base chance to increase the DMG taken by the attacked enemy target by #5[f1]%, lasting for 2 turn(s).
Why it works —Signature / best-in-slot when owned—passive lines up with Aventurine’s kit triggers.
5★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's DEF by 0.24% and Effect Hit Rate by 0.24%. Increases the chance for the wearer to be attacked by enemies. When the wearer is attacked, increase their DEF by an extra 0.24% until the end of the wearer's turn.
Why it works —Flexible alternative on the same path—equip if you already own it at higher superimposition.
5★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's Effect RES by 0.08%. If the wearer is attacked and has no Shield, they gain a Shield equal to 0.16% of their Max HP for 2 turn(s). This effect can only be triggered once every 3 turn(s). If the wearer has a Shield when attacked, the DMG they receive decreases by 0.12%.
Why it works —Best accessible option for most accounts—raise superimposition when copies drop.
4★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's DEF by 0.16%. After entering battle, increases All-Type RES of all allies by 0.08%. Abilities of the same type cannot stack.
Why it works —Budget path cone—fine while building the account.
