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.
Gilgamesh
- Ultimate “Enuma Elish” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- “Gate of Babylon” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
- Talent “"Amuse Me to the Fullest"” When a teammate uses their Ultimate—damage keeps flowing even when Gilgamesh is not the active turn.
- Follow-Ups from “"Amuse Me to the Fullest"” need allies who actually Basic ATK on schedule—freeze/CC on the team stalls Gilgamesh’s off-turn damage.
- E0 without “I Am As You Behold” 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.
- Spamming “Gate of Babylon” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Gilgamesh is often the SP sink.
