Lighter (ZZZ) Core Passive
Lighter automatically gains Morale over time, at a rate of 2.9 points per second. For each point of Energy consumed by any squad member, Lighter recovers an additional 0.26 Morale, up to a maximum of 100. When Morale reaches 80, the next time Lighter switches into battle he immediately launches a Quick Assist. Once Morale exceeds 80, executing the 5th hit of his Basic Attack puts Lighter in the Morale Burst state, enhancing the power of the startup light punch, jab combo, and the Finishing Move of the 5th hit of his Basic Attack. When a skill hits an enemy with its power increased, it will continuously consume Morale. With every 10 points of Morale consumed, Lighter’s Impact increases by 1%/1.17%/1.33%/1.5%/1.67%/1.83%/2%, up to a maximum increase of 10%/11.7%/13.3%/15%/16.7%/18.3%/20%, and lasting 6s. In the Morale Burst state, Lighter will no longer automatically gain Morale over time. If his Morale is exhausted during a startup light punch or jab combo, he will automatically follow up with a more powerful Finishing Move. In the Morale Burst state, when startup light punches or jab combos hit enemies, the target’s Ice RES and Fire RES are reduced by 15%, lasting 30s. In the Morale Burst state, when the Finishing Move hits an enemy, it applies the Collapse effect on the target, extending its Stunned duration by 3s. The Collapse effect can trigger only once on the same target before they recover from Stun. When the Finishing Move of the 5th hit of his Basic Attack hits an enemy, when he switches off field, or when his Morale runs out, Lighter will leave the Morale Burst state, keeping any unspent Morale.

The percentage indicates the performance of the Mindscapes in Damage Boost to teammates.(The simulation of damage boost is to Ellen.)
M1 – Extends Daze duration by 2s (from 3s to 5s). Adds 10% resistance reduction for Ice/Fire.
M2 – Maximum Ice/Fire damage boost raised from 75% to 90%.
M4 – Grants 10% energy recovery for on-field characters. Provides 4 energy to off-field character when Lighter enter Morale Burst state.
M6 – Doubles Morale recovery speed. Deal extra Fire damage when using various skills, scaling with Impact.
Pulling Recommendations:
M1 is essential for extending Daze duration. M6 is powerful for faster Morale recovery and bonus Fire damage.

Lighter’s W-engine selection prioritizes his signature W-engine, Blazing Laurel, followed by Qingyi’s signature W-engine, Ice-Jade Teapot, and then any W-engine that provides high Impact. For example, Koleda’s signature W-engine, Hellfire Gear, and Lycaon’s signature W-engine can both improve Lighter’s Stun Efficiency, but Koleda’s W-engine achieves this by increasing Impact, while Lycaon’s W-engine only boosts Stun Efficiency without increasing Impact. Therefore, Koleda’s W-engine is more suitable for Lighter.
Even the four-star W-engine, Steam Oven, which provides higher Impact than Lycaon’s signature W-engine, is a better choice for Lighter. This is because Lighter’s team passive, Fighting Spirit, which provides a Fire Damage and Ice Damage boost to the entire team, is directly tied to his Impact.
To fully achieve the 75% boost potential, only three W-engines can accomplish this: Blazing Laurel, Ice-Jade Teapot, and Hellfire Gear. All other W-engines fail to reach the maximum boost threshold. Therefore, when building Lighter, it is crucial to prioritize these three W-engines to maximize his damage output and team boost potential.

For the Drive Disc, the recommended 4-pc set is Shockstar Disco.
For a 2-pc set, if you want to focus on a damage build, you can go with Inferno or Woodpecker. However, since Lighter’s Morale relies on energy recovery, choosing Swing Jazz is also a viable option.

From the perspective of damage boost, Lighter is definitely superior to Lycaon in a team where Ellen is the Main DPS.
The bonus Lycaon provides to Ellen is only 91.15% of what Lighter offers. This does not even take into account Lighter’s 3-second Daze time bonus. During non-Daze periods, Lycaon does not provide a Daze damage increase, making the difference even more pronounced.

The other team replaces Koleda with Lighter, forming a Fire Team with Solider 11 as the Main DPS.
