Strengths & Weaknesses

Bailu

Strengths
  • “Felicitous Thunderleap” restores HP across the threatened allies, giving Bailu a panic button when Skill ticks are not enough.
  • Skill “Singing Among Clouds” Heals a single ally for 13.7% of Bailu's Max HP plus 400—Outgoing Healing and HP relics convert directly into safer DPS turns.
  • “Gourdful of Elixir” restores HP across the threatened allies—clutch saves without spending a second Ultimate.
Weaknesses
  • Healing does not speed Toughness or DPS checks—Bailu looks “bad” on clear-time boards even when the team would have died without the Skill/Ult heals.
  • If Energy or Skill Points starve “Felicitous Thunderleap”, Bailu spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
  • Spamming “Singing Among Clouds” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Bailu is often the SP sink.

Natasha

Strengths
  • “Gift of Rebirth” restores HP across the threatened allies, giving Natasha a panic button when Skill ticks are not enough.
  • Skill “Love, Heal, and Choose” restores HP across the threatened allies—Outgoing Healing and HP relics convert directly into safer DPS turns.
  • “Innervation” When healing allies with HP percentage at 30% or lower, increases Natasha's Outgoing Healing by 63%—clutch saves without spending a second Ultimate.
Weaknesses
  • Healing does not speed Toughness or DPS checks—Natasha looks “bad” on clear-time boards even when the team would have died without the Skill/Ult heals.
  • As a 4★ Abundance unit, Natasha 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 “Love, Heal, and Choose” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Natasha is often the SP sink.
