At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
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.
Trailblazer (Destruction)
- “Stardust Ace” dumps a huge single-target Physical multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- “RIP Home Run” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
- Talent “Perfect Pickoff” buffs allies’ damage for a short window—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Stardust Ace”, Trailblazer (Destruction) spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Trailblazer (Destruction)’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 “RIP Home Run” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Trailblazer (Destruction) is often the SP sink.
