At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae
- “Azure's Aqua Ablutes All” dumps a huge single-target Imaginary multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- Skill “Dracore Libre” buffs allies’ damage for a short window—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Righteous Heart” After each hit dealt during an attack—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- E0 without “Brighter Than the Sun” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Destruction carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Azure's Aqua Ablutes All”, Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Spamming “Dracore Libre” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae is often the SP sink.
Firefly
- Ultimate “Fyrefly Type-IV: Complete Combustion” enters Complete Combustion with full action advance, SPD, and Break-boosted Enhanced attacks—most of the kit’s damage lives inside that window, not on filler Basics.
- Skill “Order: Aerial Bombardment” spends a large HP chunk to refund Energy and advance action—the rotation wants controlled self-damage, not panic healing that cancels the state.
- Talent “Chrysalid Pyronexus” scales DMG Reduction with low HP and locks max reduction in the burst state—survivability is written into the damage plan, not bolted on later.
- E0 without “Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Destruction carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- HP-spend skills mean Firefly can soft-lock if sustain is weak or if a healer tops them up at the wrong time and breaks a low-HP / Charge condition.
- Firefly 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.
Shared Team Members
With Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae
Gallagher covers healing (and often Energy / cleanse) so the carry can stay on-curve.
With Firefly
Gallagher keeps Toughness routes alive with heals (and Break-friendly sustain when built that way).
With Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae
Tingyun is the Advance / DMG amp — time their Skill/Ult for the carry’s damage window.
With Firefly
Tingyun amps Break Effect / action value so Toughness bars die on schedule.
With Dan Heng · Imbibitor Lunae
Pela applies DEF shred / vulnerability so the carry’s multipliers actually land.
With Firefly
Pela enables Super Break / Toughness pressure rather than a generic CRIT Harmony slot.
