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.
Saber
- Ultimate “Excalibur” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- “Strike Air: Hammer of the Wind King” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
- Talent “Dragon Reactor Core” refunds a meaningful chunk of Energy inside the Skill—good play literally shortens Ult cooldown.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Excalibur”, Saber spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Saber’s best Light Cone usually shares the character banner—E0S0 on a strong path cone still clears, but expect a noticeable gap until the signature (or a close path alternative) is online.
- Spamming “Strike Air: Hammer of the Wind King” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Saber is often the SP sink.
