Skill Analysis & Leveling Priority
| – Basic Attack: An attack with up to 5 sequences that deals Electric DMG. As the controlled operator, Final Strike also deals 18 Stagger. – Dive Attack: Basic attack performed in mid-air becomes a dive attack that deals Electric DMG to nearby enemies. – Finisher: Basic attack performed near a Staggered enemy becomes a finisher attack that deals massive Electric DMG and recovers some SP. | |
| Basic Attack | Leveling Priority: Low |
| Reason: Zhuang Fangyi’s normal attacks aren’t used too often, so players don’t need to level this up. | |
| Consumes the target’s Electrification to increase the DMG multiplier of this battle skill and create [Status Level of Electrification consumed +1] Sunderblades. If the battlefield has fewer than 3 Sunderblades, Mantra of Sundering can still create 1 Sunderblade, even if it does not consume any target’s Electrification. Zhuang Fangyi then channels all Sunderblades nearby to successively unleash Thunder Strikes on the target, dealing Electric DMG and giving bonus Ultimate Energy, with the final Thunder Strike dealing 6 times the DMG. A single battle skill casting can only create a max of 3 Sunderblades. | |
| Battle Skill | Leveling Priority: Highest |
| Reason: Zhuang Fangyi’s main damaging move, so players should level this up as much as possible. | |
| When the controlled operator’s Final Strike or Finisher hits an enemy with Electric Infliction. SKILL DESCRIPTION: Zhuang Fangyi creates a Xiranblitz Array that attacks the enemy and deals Electric DMG. If the Array hits an enemy that has Electric Infliction stack(s), then it will consume the said Electric Infliction stack(s), forcibly apply Electrification, and give Ultimate Energy based on the number of stacks consumed. If Electrification is forcibly applied to an enemy that already has Electrification, then apply Status Level +1 to the enemy’s Electrification. | |
| Combo Skill | Leveling Priority: High |
| Reason: Another of Zhuang Fangyi’s main damage move and should be leveled up as high as possible. | |
| Transforms into the Empyrean of Truth that grants these enhancements: Zhuang Fangyi’s basic attacks are enhanced and her actions are harder to interrupt; Battle skill Mantra of Sundering gains a higher DMG multiplier and an increased effect range, and the final Thunder Strike also applies Electric Infliction to the target hit. Combo skill Breath of Transformation gains a higher DMG multiplier, cooldown becomes 4 times faster, and effects are applied to enemies within a small area. The first casting of the battle skill Mantra of Sundering on an available target does not consume SP nor Electrification, and is guaranteed to create 3 Sunderblades even if the target has no Electrification. | |
| Ultimate | Leveling Priority: High |
| Reason: Zhuang Fangyi’s main damage output starts when she uses her Ultimate to enter her enhanced form, players should level this up as much as possible to optimize her damage modifiers. | |
| Battle skill Mantra of Sundering improved: Casting the battle skill grants Zhuang Fangyi 18% Electric Amp for 5s. Scoring hits with the battle skill’s Thunder Strike increases this effect by +2%. Every casting of the battle skill Mantra of Sundering again resets this Electric Amp effect. | |
| Talent 1 | Unlock Priority: Highest |
| Reason: This talent massively boost Fangyi’s Damage output due to it applying Electric Amp to herself, helping to boost her overall Electric damage to the maximum. | |
| Gains a 9% chance of immunity against DMG taken, with each Sunderblade nearby increasing this chance by +1%. After DMG Immunity is triggered, Zhuang Fangyi is also restored for 18% Max HP. The HP restoration effect only triggers once every 99s | |
| Talent 2 | Unlock Priority: Medium |
| Reason: A Decent Talent that helps Fangyi survives longer in a fight and recover her HP after being hit by enemies. | |
