Gallagher
Situational—Gallagher is the best 4★ Break sustain. Ultimate “Champagne Etiquette” hits every enemy on the field in one cast. Best with Firefly / Boothill / Rappa / Fugue. Besotted healing + Break; build Break Effect. Skip when Lingsha already fills Break sustain (still excellent backup).
Gallagher is a 4★ Fire Abundance Healer. Skill “Special Brew” is the primary in-combat spend. Ultimate “Champagne Etiquette” 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 “Champagne Etiquette” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “Special Brew” Immediately heals a target ally for 2020 HP—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Tipsy Tussle” The Besotted state makes targets receive 15.0% more Break DMG—ignore it and Gallagher plays like a worse generic Abundance unit.
- Technique “Artisan Elixir” opens by hitting the pack on pull-in—use it before every MoC wave, not only in the overworld.
Weaknesses
- Healing does not speed Toughness or DPS checks—Gallagher looks “bad” on clear-time boards even when the team would have died without the Skill/Ult heals.
- As a 4★ Abundance unit, Gallagher is easy to gear for early/mid game but usually loses the niche race to a modern limited option once that banner is built.
- Spamming “Special Brew” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Gallagher is often the SP sink.
- If “Champagne Etiquette” 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
Special Brew carries most of the kit’s damage or utility—level this first.
Champagne Etiquette supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Tipsy Tussle supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Corkage Fee 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 Max HP by 0.18% and Outgoing Healing by 0.12%. When the wearer heals allies, record the amount of Outgoing Healing. When any ally launches an attack, a random attacked enemy takes Additional DMG equal to 0.36% of the recorded Outgoing Healing value. The type of this Additional DMG is of the same Type as the wearer's. This Additional DMG is not affected by other buffs, and can only occur 1 time per turn.
Why it works —Strong Abundance option for Gallagher; use while farming or if signature is unavailable.
5★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's ATK by 0.24%. After the wearer uses an attack, for each different enemy target the wearer hits, regenerates #3[f1] Energy. Each attack can regenerate Energy up to 3 time(s) this way. After the wearer uses their Ultimate, all allies gain 12 SPD for 1 turn.
Why it works —Flexible alternative on the same path—equip if you already own it at higher superimposition.
4★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's Energy Regeneration Rate by 0.08% and increases Outgoing Healing when they use their Ultimate by 0.12%.
Why it works —Best accessible option for most accounts—raise superimposition when copies drop.
4★ · Path cone
Increases the wearer's Outgoing Healing by 0.1%. When using Skill, regenerates #2[f1] Energy for all allies.
Why it works —Budget path cone—fine while building the account.
Relics
Team Compositions
Gallagher enabling Firefly. Firefly, Fugue, Ruan Mei complete the break shell.
Firefly is the damage seat in this shell — build the supports around their rotation, not the reverse.
Anchors sustain in this squad while contributing Abundance utility the archetype expects.
Fugue enables Super Break / Toughness pressure rather than a generic CRIT Harmony slot.
Ruan Mei amps Break Effect / action value so Toughness bars die on schedule.
