At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Boothill
- “Dust Devil's Sunset Rodeo” dumps a huge single-target Physical multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- Skill “Sizzlin' Tango” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Five Peas in a Pod” Each stack of Pocket Trickshot increases the Enhanced Basic Attack's Toughness Reduction by 50%—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- “Dust Devil's Sunset Rodeo” is single-target—multi-wave Pure Fiction asks the rest of the team to clear trash while Boothill focuses the elite.
- E0 without “Sailing Towards a Second Life” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most The Hunt carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- Boothill wants Break Effect supports and Toughness bars that can actually be broken; into awkward weakness line-ups the Complete Combustion / Break loop loses most of its damage.
Feixiao
- “Terrasplit” dumps a huge single-target Wind multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- Talent “Thunderhunt” fires Follow-Up ATKs off ally Basics—stack management is the real rotation, not just Skill spam.
- Skill “Waraxe” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- “Terrasplit” is single-target—multi-wave Pure Fiction asks the rest of the team to clear trash while Feixiao focuses the elite.
- “Thunderhunt” Follow-Ups only fire after the Charge/HP conditions are met—wasting Skill or over-healing can strand Feixiao below the Follow-Up threshold for a full cycle.
- E0 without “I Venture Forth to Hunt” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most The Hunt carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
