Characters and equipment that use this material

Quantum★★★★★

Archer

Released Jul 11, 2025Five-star Quantum Hunt damage dealer whose Skill supports repeated single-target attacks during Circuit Connection. Consider Archer when you can fund repeated Skill uses and teammates attack often enough to trigger his Charge-based follow-ups.Guide

Archer’s Skill enters Circuit Connection and deals Quantum damage to one enemy. Further Skill uses during the state do not end his current turn and increase Skill damage, while teammate attacks can spend his Charge to launch follow-ups that restore Skill Points. His extended Skill sequence therefore depends on available Skill Points, and his follow-ups depend on both Charge and teammate attacks.

Wind★★★★★

Bronya is a 5-star Wind character on the Harmony path. Consider her when an ally benefits from immediately taking action, a one-debuff dispel, and a damage increase. Her Ultimate separately buffs all allies’ ATK and CRIT DMG.

Quantum★★★★★

Seele

Physical★★★★

Natasha

Released Apr 26, 2023Single-target and teamwide healerGuide

Natasha is a Physical Abundance character for teams that need both targeted healing and an all-ally heal. Her Skill heals one ally immediately and over time; her Ultimate restores HP to the whole team. She is most useful when those two healing patterns answer the fight’s damage pressure.

Pela is an Ice Nihility character for teams that benefit from reducing enemy DEF. Her Ultimate attempts to Expose all enemies, while her Skill removes one buff from a single target. Her attacks can also restore Energy when their target remains debuffed.

Released Apr 26, 2023Counter-based physical attacker who draws enemy attacksGuide

Clara is a Physical Destruction character whose damage and protection interact with enemies attacking her. Her Talent reduces damage from enemy attacks and retaliates against attackers; her Ultimate reduces damage further, draws enemy attention, and enhances counters.

Quantum★★★★

Qingque

Released Apr 26, 2023Quantum attacker with tile-dependent enhanced Basic ATKGuide

Qingque is a Quantum Erudition character whose enhanced Basic ATK depends on holding four matching tiles when her turn starts. Her Skill draws tiles and increases damage without ending her turn, so her Skill Point use can vary.

Imaginary★★★★★

Luocha

Released Jun 28, 2023Abundance healer and enemy-buff removerGuide

Luocha keeps allies healthy through a targeted Skill, an automatic emergency heal, and a Zone that heals allies when they attack. Use him when you want sustained healing with relatively little need to spend Skill Points, or when removing one buff from every enemy with his Ultimate is useful.

Physical★★★★

Sushang

Released Apr 26, 2023Hunt damage dealer who gains extra Skill damage and SPD from Weakness BreakGuide

Sushang focuses on one enemy, with a Skill that can trigger an additional Sword Stance hit and becomes guaranteed to do so against a Weakness Broken target.
