How to play Denia
A Fusion sub-DPS and Support who plays into one of two negative statuses, Fusion Burst or Tune Strain, with her damage coming from Resonance Liberation. One rotation covers both sides. What changes is the echo set she wears and the main damage dealer she is pointed at.
- Fusion Burst
- Tune Strain
The two sides are built differently: each wears its own five-piece echo set.
The loop is the same either way: Intro Skill in Stagecraft Form for Dark Core, Basic Attacks and Resonance Skill for Void Particle, Resonance Liberation to switch into Breakdown Form, then a second Resonance Liberation for the grouping field before she swaps back and exits on her Outro Skill.
She holds enemies together off-field for a long time and is easy to operate.
Denia’s best teams
Qingxiao Hypercarry
Qingxiao (Main DPS), Denia (Sub-DPS), Mornye (Support)
The best Qingxiao Hypercarry.
Denia plays Sub-DPS, Qingxiao plays Main DPS. Different jobs, no shared window.
Qingxiao's ideal Support: the one Support made for Tune Strain, so it lands faster and her buffs pay off on it.
On the numbers, about 2.6M per rotation.
With Baizhi (4★) in Mornye’s seat: about 1.9M per rotation.
Aemeath Fusion Burst
Aemeath (Main DPS), Denia (Sub-DPS), Chisa or Lupa or Suisui (Support)
A solid Aemeath Fusion Burst.
Both Fusion: their amplification stacks, and you only plan around one resistance.
Chisa keeps Tune Strain stacked. Aemeath's damage reads off it.
On the numbers, about 2.2M per rotation.
With Lupa: about 2.3M. With Suisui: about 1.8M.
With Baizhi (4★) in Chisa’s seat: about 1.6M per rotation.
Luuk Hypercarry
Luuk Herssen (Main DPS), Denia (Sub-DPS), Mornye or Shorekeeper or Verina (Support)
The best Luuk Hypercarry.
Denia plays Sub-DPS, Luuk plays Main DPS. Different jobs, no shared window.
Luuk applies his own Tune Strain, which is exactly what Mornye responds to, so she reaches her full buff set on him even at S0. On top comes the extra team DMG% her Interfered Marker gives back.
On the numbers, about 2.1M per rotation.
With Shorekeeper: about 2.1M. With Verina: about 1.7M.
With Baizhi (4★) in Mornye’s seat: about 1.7M per rotation.
