Should You Pull?YES

Yes—Permansor Terrae is a top Physical Preservation sustain. Ultimate “A Dragon's Zenith Knows No Rue” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs. Best with Sunday / Phainon / Yunli / Archer. ATK-scaling shield/buff sustain for ATK carries. Skip when you already own Aventurine/Fu Xuan covering both sides.

Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae is a 5★ Physical Preservation Shielder. Skill “Terra Omnibus” is the primary in-combat spend. Ultimate “A Dragon's Zenith Knows No Rue” 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 “A Dragon's Zenith Knows No Rue” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs—level this before polishing filler traces.
  • Talent “Of Virtue, Forms Unfold” applies a Shield that absorbs incoming damage—stack management is the real rotation, not just Skill spam.
  • Skill “Terra Omnibus” applies a Shield that absorbs incoming damage—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
  • Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae’s memosprite/summon adds a second actor that hits and breaks without always spending the team’s Skill Points.

Weaknesses

  • “Of Virtue, Forms Unfold” Follow-Ups only fire after the Charge/HP conditions are met—wasting Skill or over-healing can strand Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae below the Follow-Up threshold for a full cycle.
  • Shield value falls when content is a pure damage race or when the carry already has invulnerability frames—over-building Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae’s relics delays the DPS sets that actually end cycles.
  • Spamming “Terra Omnibus” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae is often the SP sink.
  • If “A Dragon's Zenith Knows No Rue” is still offline at the end of a MoC cycle, the build is usually Energy/ERR or rotation order—not a missing CRIT roll.

General

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.

Supports online

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
Though Worlds Apart

5★ · Path cone

Increases the wearer's ATK by 0.64%. When the wearer uses Ultimate, restores HP equal to 0.1% of the wearer's ATK for all allies, and additionally restores HP equal to 0.1% of the wearer's ATK for the character with the lowest current HP, and grants "Redoubt" to all allies for 3 turn(s). Targets with "Redoubt" deal 0.24% increased DMG, which further increases by 0.12% if the targets have summons.

Why it works —Signature / best-in-slot when owned—passive lines up with Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae’s kit triggers.

2
Moment of Victory

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.

3
Texture of Memories

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
Day One of My New Life

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.

When Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae uses Ultimate, recovers 1 Skill Point(s) and increases the "Bondmate's" All-Type RES PEN by 18%, lasting for 3 turn(s).

Is it worth getting?

Comfort opener: Adds RES PEN (or ignore) during the burst window. Nice QoL/damage, but E0 still runs the full kit—don’t break pity for E1 alone.

E2Watch Trails to BlazePull Target

When the enhanced "Souldragon" takes action, the Additional DMG dealt by the "Bondmate" becomes 200% of its original DMG, and the Shield Effect provided in this instance becomes 200% of its original Shield Effect.

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). Free if you roll into it; never spend currency aiming for E3.

E4By Oath, This Vessel Is I

Is it worth getting?
