Taoqi Team

Taoqi Best Team

Sub DPS – Sanhua/Danjin/Taoqi

To activate Rover (Havoc)’s Forte Circuit, you need one set of Basic Attack (33 Umbra), Resonance Skill (40 Umbra), and one Intro Skill (30 Umbra). If you don’t use the Intro Skill, you’ll need two sets of Basic Attacks, which takes longer and yields lower benefits. Therefore, pairing with Sanhua to quickly trigger QTE is the first choice. Additionally, Sanhua provides a 38% Basic Attack DMG Deepen, which fits well with Rover (Havoc)’s damage output cycle. Since Rover (Havoc)’s Outro Skill deals AoE damage for 6 seconds, switching to Sanhua after completing Rover (Havoc)’s Forte Circuit can help maximize the Outro Skill damage against enemies that can be frozen. In such cases, Lampylumen Myriad can assist Rover (Havoc) in fully utilizing the Outro Skill damage.

Danjin’s ability to gain Concerto Energy is also quite impressive. Four sets of “3 Basic + 3 Resonance Skill” can fully charge Concerto Energy in 12 seconds. Switching back to Rover (Havoc) just as Resonance Skill comes off cooldown fits perfectly. After Rover (Havoc) completes a set of core skills, Danjin uses Intro Skill and two Resonance Skills, then activates Forte Circuit with full energy. A set of “3 Basic + 3 Resonance Skill” will fully charge Concerto Energy. Additionally, because Rover (Havoc)’s damage distribution is fairly balanced, Danjin’s 23% Havoc DMG Deepen offers a greater boost to Rover (Havoc) compared to Sanhua. However, Danjin has a drawback: she is prone to dying quickly. When hastily trying to generate Concerto Energy, even a slight hit can be fatal.

In contrast to Danjin, Taoqi takes a different approach. Taoqi provides Resonance Skill DMG Deepen, which does not boost Rover (Havoc)’s damage as much as Danjin, and is even less effective than Sanhua. Additionally, Taoqi has the slowest Concerto Energy gain among the three. However, Taoqi can help ensure Rover (Havoc)’s survival during the “Dark Surge”. This is important because executing a full combo of “Heavy Attack + Umbra: Thwackblade + Enhanced Basic Attack 3, 4 & 5” takes a lengthy time, and focusing too much on damage can easily lead to taking hits.

Healer – Verina/Baizhi

Verina’s healing abilities and Concerto Energy acquisition abilities are both greater than Baizhi’s, making her the preferred healer character. Verina’s Inherent Skill provides a one-time death immunity effect. Baizhi also has a similar effect that is even better, but it requires unlocking at Sequence 5.

Verina’s healing amount is based on her ATK, so Verina has a certain degree of damage output. If you build it well, her damage should not be underestimated.

Verina’s Inherent Skill can provide a 20% attack buff to the entire team, while Baizhi can only provide a 15% attack buff to a single character.
