At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Jingliu
- “Florephemeral Dreamflux” dumps a huge single-target Ice multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- Skill “Transcendent Flash” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Crescent Transmigration” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- E0 without “I Shall Be My Own Sword” 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 Jingliu 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.
- Spamming “Transcendent Flash” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Jingliu is often the SP sink.
Mydei
- Ultimate “Throne of Bones” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies—most of the kit’s damage lives inside that window, not on filler Basics.
- Skill “Deaths are Legion, Regrets are None” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost—the rotation wants controlled self-damage, not panic healing that cancels the state.
- “Blood for Blood” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost—cleaving a trash mob can snowball into another full Skill/Ult cycle.
- E0 without “A Thankless Coronation” 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 Mydei 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.
- Extra-turn and single-target Ultimate patterns shine on bosses but stall in Pure Fiction unless adds die fast enough to proc the talent loop.
