Strengths & Weaknesses

Qiuyuan

Strengths
  • Liberation “Sundering Strike” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool — that window is where Qiuyuan’s clear speed actually shows up.
  • Forte “Verdant Edge” converts Forte resources into an enhanced damage cast, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
  • Outro “Strike Before Ready” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool — swap timing is part of the damage plan, not just Concerto filling.
Weaknesses
  • Field-time hungry once Liberation “Sundering Strike” is up — double-DPS swaps dilute the dump window.
  • Wants dedicated supports and ER planning; dropped into a random squad, Liberation uptime falls off a cliff.

Sigrika

Strengths
  • Liberation “Where Trust Leads Me!” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool — that window is where Sigrika’s clear speed actually shows up.
  • Forte “Within Infinity's Embrace” converts Forte resources into an enhanced damage cast, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
  • Aerial / plunge routes give flexible dodge and reposition options mid-combo.
Weaknesses
  • Field-time hungry once Liberation “Where Trust Leads Me!” is up — double-DPS swaps dilute the dump window.
  • Wants dedicated supports and ER planning; dropped into a random squad, Liberation uptime falls off a cliff.
