Qiuyuan Overview

Qiuyuan

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐|Element: Aero|Weapon:Sword

Qiuyuan is a 5-star Aero character wielding a Sword, perfectly matching his "The lone wayfaring swordsman" designation. He excels at applying pressure through rapid normal attacks and stacking Resonance.

As a teammate for Galbrena, Qiu Yuan's C1 provides interrupt resistance and minor self-synergy, C2 enhances support capabilities, C3 enables her to function as a DPS. In terms of Resonance Chains, Qiuyuan's upgrades are consistently focused on her independent combat potential.

Qiuyuan can now self-buff! In V2, the Resonance Skill and Resonance Liberation are considered Echo damage, allowing them to benefit from his signature weapon, Echo sets, Resonance Circuit, and C2 effects. His signature weapon provides 60% heavy attack damage and 20% Sonata skill damage, both of which are now fully effective. However, his specific strength will still depend on further updates in the test server.

Qiuyuan Weapon Recommended

Best Choice

Emerald Sentence

Emerald Sentence

ATK: 587.5 | Rate. CRIT: 24.3% | Recommendation: Top

When A Heart Settles

ATK is increased by 12%/15%/18%/21%/24%. Casting Echo Skill grants 40%/50%/60%/70%/80% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus to the wielder for 4s. Casting Intro Skill grants 20%/25%/30%/35%/40% Echo Skill DMG Bonus to all Resonators in the team for 30s.

There's no need to say much. A character's Signature Weapon is always the one that best suits their kit. Therefore, for those with sufficient resources or who wish to unlock Qiuyuan's full potential, the Emerald Sentence is undoubtedly an indispensable choice.

 

Standard Choice

Emerald of Genesis

Emerald of Genesis

ATK: 587 | Rate. CRIT: 24.3% | Recommendation: High

A standard weapon with Crit Rate as its sub-stat. It provides a balanced boost to Crit Rate, Resonance Efficiency, and Resonance Skill DMG—offering modest yet versatile stat increases across multiple areas!

 

4-Star Choice

Feather Edge

Feather Edge

ATK: 412.5 | Rate. CRIT: 20.25% | Recommendation: Mid

In the current V2 version, Resonance Liberation remains Qiuyuan's primary output skill. This 4-star weapon provides a decent boost to Resonance Liberation, making it a suitable choice for resource-constrained Rovers.

Echo Sets

Sub-DPS Set 43311

Reminiscence: Fenrico

Reminiscence: Fenrico

Summon the Talons of Decree to attack nearby enemies, dealing 273.60% Aero DMG.

The Resonator with this Echo equipped in their main slot gains 12.00% Aero DMG Bonus and 12.00% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus.

CD: 20s.

Law of Harmony

Law of Harmony (3-piece)

Casting Echo Skill grants 30% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus to the caster for 4s.

Additionally, all Resonators in the team gain 4% Echo Skill DMG Bonus for 30s, stacking up to 4 times. Echoes of the same name can only trigger this effect once. The record of Echo triggering this effect is cleared along with this effect. At 4 stacks, casting Echo Skill again resets the duration of this effect.

Gusts of Welkin

Gusts of Welkin (2-piece)

Aero DMG + 10%

Given that Qiuyuan's signature weapon primarily provides Crit stats, the "Reminiscence: Fenrico" three-piece set and the "Law of Harmony" set effect already offer ample heavy attack damage bonus. Therefore, the remaining two-piece slot can be paired with any Wind set to increase Aero damage bonus, compensating for the lack of Wind damage.

 

Nightmare: Feilian Beringal

Nightmare: Feilian Beringal

Summon a Nightmare: Feilian Beringal to attack enemies, dealing 164.16% Aero DMG. The remaining Whirlwind Beam will continuously attack surrounding enemies up to 5 times, each dealing 21.89% Aero DMG.

The Resonator with this Echo equipped in their main slot gains 12.00% Aero DMG Bonus and 12.00% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus.

CD: 20s

Sierra Gale

Sierra Gale

2-piece

Aero DMG + 10%.

5-piece

Aero DMG + 30% for 15s after releasing Intro Skill.

It's clear that Qiuyuan requires both Heavy Attack and Aero Damage bonuses. Nightmare: Feilian Beringal also provides a 12% + 12% Aero Heavy Attack damage bonus, with a damage multiplier equivalent to the first recommended set. Therefore, for Rovers prioritizing efficiency, farming our classic Wind set remains a sufficient choice.

This information outlines potential team compositions at this stage. However, it is undeniable that Qiuyuan and Galbrena are strategically linked. Whether this constitutes an absolute necessity will depend on subsequent adjustments in the test server. Furthermore, while the previously considered synergy between Phrolova and Qiuyuan appeared promising, the V2 changes have effectively excluded Phrolova from this specific pairing. Qiuyuan's overall strength is still under evaluation. Bookmark this page, as LDShop will provide timely updates to facilitate your pre-building preparations.

 

Conclusion

That concludes the current Qiuyuan Build Guide. Based on the latest information, Qiuyuan appears to lean more towards a Sub-DPS role. However, with such a dashing design, it's safe to say most Rovers have already been captivated!
