HSR Pure Fiction: V3.7 Guide Update & Teams

Hi! Trailblazer!

Pure Fiction is one of the permanent game modes, offering players a unique challenge and valuable rewards. Did you score full marks in this round of Pure Fiction V3.7 for this season? This article will detail buff and the best teams for acing Pure Fiction mode, enhancing your gameplay experience! Let’s go!

Buff Overview

Syntax Rule (November 24, 2025 - January 5, 2026)
Grit Mechanic: Activate Grit Mechanics in battle to accumulate Grit Value and enter the Surging Grit phase after accumulating it to full. Triggers DoT: Every time a DoT is received by an enemy target, additionally accumulates 2 Grit Value for allies.
Concordant Truce	Enemies enter the battle with 1 stack of Echo Enigma (a special Wind Shear). After every action, they gain another stack and take Wind DoT at the start of their turn. Echo Enigma stacks up to 10 stacks, lasting 3 turns.
Surging Grit	Upon reaching full Grit, all enemies immediately: Receive 5 stacks of Echo Enigma. Trigger every current DoT for 100% of its original DMG instantly. Suffer +50% DMG taken. Deal 35% less DMG. Gain 50% SPD during this phase.

3 Individual Buffs

Exposition	During the "Surging Grit" period, the ally targets' DoT dealt ignores 20% of the target's All-Type RES. When the enemy target receives DoT, increases all allies DoT dealt by 1%. Up to a max of 99 stack(s). Lasts until "Surging Grit" ends.
Torn Fabric	During "Surging Grit," each stack of "Echo Enigma" increases Weakness Break Efficiency by 10% when ally targets deal damage.
Cinnabar Inscription	Every stack of "Echo Enigma" increases enemy target's DMG received by 3%. During "Surging Grit," enemy targets gain 1 stack(s) of "Echo Enigma" after a memosprite attacks them.

 

Stage 4 Phase 1

Types Recommended

Enemy Mechanics

Cocolia

Cocolia brings classic freeze-based control but now appears with faster pacing than usual:

Chill of Bone-Piercing Coagulation → Single-target Ice DMG.

Omen of Everlasting Freeze → Summons Ice Edges that add pressure and chip damage.

Punishment of Endless Winter → High AoE Ice DMG; her biggest threat.

Hoarfrost of Eternal Isolation → Single-target attack with high Freeze chance.

Wrath of Winterland Saints → Enters Charging, enabling the next Punishment of Endless Winter.

What matters most here:

She frequently enters Charging → huge AoE incoming.

Freezes cause your action order to slip, reducing DoT frequency and delaying Grit generation.

Managing Ice Edges helps maintain tempo.

Recommended Teams

Exposition
Hysilens	Kafka	Tribbie	Dan Heng
Cinnabar Inscription
Castorice	Trailblazer (The Remembrance)	Tribbie	Hyacine
Torn Fabric
Phainon	Cerydra	Cyrene	Trailblazer (The Remembrance)

 

Stage 4 Phase 2

Types Recommended

Enemy Mechanics

First Genius, Entelechy, Zandar

This is a complex encounter featuring Zandar, a boss with shifting modes and unique "Antinomy" mechanics.

Mode Switching:

Evolution Mode → Focuses on summoning/buffing units.

Disputation Mode → Aggressive mode. Grants enemies "Stormride" (immediate action after turn end) and "Retribution" (HP loss on action).

Antinomy Effect:

Zandar applies "Antinomy" to your units. This forces your Ultimate to activate (if charged). If you use it, you might lose HP or Shield. If you don't (or can't), energy is restored later.

Even Distribution:

His ultimate attack, Query: Prime Mover's Outcome, deals massive damage distributed among your team. The more "enhancements" he has (gained from his minions acting), the harder it hits and the higher chance to cause Entanglement.

Recommended Teams

Cinnabar Inscription
Evernight	Cyrene	Trailblazer (The Remembrance)	Hyacine
Cinnabar Inscription
Blade	Trailblazer (The Remembrance)	Tribbie	Hyacine
Exposition
Hysilens	Kafka	Black Swan	Dan Heng

 

Conclusion

This 3.7 Pure Fiction cycle heavily favors DoT teams. Current mainstream comps perform extremely well, with Castorice teams and DoT teams able to score high—or even auto full-score with good investment.

The major buff gives strong extra DoT damage, and the enemy SPD boost actually helps trigger more DoT ticks. Its bonus DoT also fills in missing damage. The minor buff is decent too, offering DoT, Break, and Vulnerability support with good general value.
