At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Aventurine
- 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.
- 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.
Dan Heng · Permansor Terrae
- 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.
- “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.
