GUIDETeam Building and Rotation
At a Glance
A team for longer fights, built from Burn-applying Identities that attack while collectively increasing enemy Burn. Variants include physical Burn, Burn and Tremor with Dawn Office and Thumb units, and Dark Flame, which amplifies Burn damage through Magic Bullet Outis.
Strengths
- Many priority picks gain Coin Power or Power based on the target's Burn. Building Burn raises the whole team's damage.
- Many requirements are modest, such as at least 6 Burn or +1 per 6 Burn, up to +2. This suggests that even a small number of Burn users can support the core pattern.
- Firefist Office Survivor is the anchor. Every skill from S1 to S3 adds Burn Count, almost sustaining Burn alone. His passive, which increases another enemy's Burn Count after killing or Staggering a Burning enemy during Wrath Resonance, is supplementary.
Rotation
- Start by building Burn on enemies with Burn-applying skills.
- Burn stops when Count runs out. Sustain it with Firefist Office Survivor's skills and benched Liu Assoc. South Section 5: at Uptie Ⅲ with 4 Wrath Owned, he adds 1 to the Burn Count applied by the ally with the highest SP. Liu Assoc. South Section 3's S3 reduces Burn Count by 2, so avoid it when Count is low.
- Firefist Office Survivor and Liu Assoc. South Section 3 have Wrath S2s, and 4 members have Wrath S3s, making Wrath resources easy to accumulate. This supports Wrath E.G.O such as Rodion's 4th Match Flame.
- Cover healing through E.G.O such as Into the Sunset and Indicant's Trial, available when deploying The House of Spiders: The Thumb Nursefather Rodion.
Adding Dawn Office, Thumb, or You Branch units
- These coordinated packages can replace priority picks. Choose according to the units you own.
- The Dawn Office package assumes all 3 of the following together. Their coordination triggers follow-ups and supplies Gloom and Envy resources. Raw damage exceeds the Firefist option, but all are Walpurgisnacht-exclusive.
- The Thumb package pairs The House of Spiders: The Thumb Nursefather with The House of Spiders: The Thumb Apprentice. While the Nursefather has The Eye of Precognition, a hit from the Apprentice's Base Skill triggers his own La Spada di Palermo follow-up once per turn. The Apprentice shares a Sinner with Heishou Pack - You Branch Adept, so choose one.
- The You Branch package uses The Lord of Hongyuan to swap Heishou units. They are fragile, so take care not to lose clashes.
- Combining both Dawn Office and Thumb units shifts the team toward Tremor - Scorch. Both Burn Count and Tremor Count need attention.
Dark Flame variant
- Dark Flame applied by Outis's Magic Bullet Identity and Magic Bullet E.G.O deals Pride damage equal to Dark Flame × the target's Burn at Turn End. More Burn means more damage; its Pride affinity also works against Wrath-resistant enemies.
- Reach at least 3 Magic Bullets, use the Magic Bullet E.G.O alongside at least 4 Resonance, then use S3 at 7 Magic Bullets to reset to 0. Repeat.
- Magic Bullet Outis's S3 consumes substantial SP and has a 50% chance to hit allies at 10 SP or less. Support her SP with benched Liu Assoc. South Section 3, and omit the You Branch or Dawn Office Identities that inflict Burn on themselves.
- Best against a single boss. Slow to get going and poor against ordinary groups.
Weaknesses and answers
- Wrath is the most common affinity among the priority picks, with 8 of their 30 Base Skills, so Wrath-resistant enemies are somewhat troublesome. The Dark Flame variant can use Pride damage instead.
- The enhancement conditions are modest, so open slots can also take strong general-purpose Identities without Burn. If a priority pick is missing, check the flexible and alternative slots below.

Team Builds
Example lineups: 7 deployed SinnersPhysical Burn (standard)
A lineup consisting entirely of Burn-applying Identities. Damage rises with accumulated Burn, so it works without the Dawn Office or Thumb packages. Add Hornet and Don Quixote to the 5 priority picks, and support Burn Count from the bench.
- Heishou Pack - You Branch AdeptHeathcliff · Season 6
A main attacker that builds Burn and Battleblood Instinct for enhanced S3.

Keeps the team running by supporting SP and spreading Burn.
- Cinq Assoc. East Section 3Don Quixote · Standard

Burn and Tremor (Dawn Office + Thumb)
Combine Burn from the 3 Dawn Office members with the Thumb package's Tremor, converting Tremor Bursts into Wrath damage through Tremor - Scorch. Higher damage than physical Burn, but both Burn and Tremor Count need attention.
- Dawn Office FixerSinclair · Walpurgis Night
Transforms to spread Burn Count. Dawn Office follow-ups also generate resources.
- Dawn Office FixerFaust · Walpurgis Night

Dark Flame (Magic Bullet Outis)
Dark Flame applied by Magic Bullet Outis and the Magic Bullet E.G.O deals Dark Flame × Burn as Pride damage at Turn End, multiplying Burn's damage output. Pride damage can also burn through enemies resistant to Wrath. Best against single bosses and weak against ordinary groups. Outis's S3 can shoot allies at low SP, so omit the You Branch and Dawn Office Identities that inflict Burn on themselves.
- Lobotomy E.G.O::Magic BulletOutis · Walpurgis Night
Reach at least 3 Magic Bullets, use the Magic Bullet E.G.O with at least 4 Resonance, then use S3 at 7 Magic Bullets to reset to 0. Repeat this cycle.

Pairs and trios
Groups that work well together through affiliations and other synergiesDawn Office trio
Deploying all 3 completes the Dawn Office's coordinated follow-ups, supplying Burn Potency and Count alongside Gloom and Envy resources. Their raw damage exceeds the Firefist option. All are Walpurgisnacht-exclusive, so choose according to your roster. Adding the Thumb package shifts the lineup toward Tremor - Scorch.
- Dawn Office FixerSinclair · Walpurgis Night

Thumb pair (Nursefather and Apprentice)
The Nursefather reads attacks with The Eye of Precognition, while the Apprentice builds The Duel Escalates for repeated Tremor Bursts. While the Nursefather has The Eye of Precognition, a hit from the Apprentice's Base Skill triggers his own La Spada di Palermo follow-up once per turn. The Apprentice and the You Branch Adept are both Heathcliff, so choose one.
- The House of Spiders: The Thumb NursefatherRodion · Season 7
Handles attacks with The Eye of Precognition, then unleashes enhanced Disposal for Burn and Tremor when it runs out. Rodion can also use the healing E.G.O Into the Sunset, Pursuance, and Indicant's Trial.

The Lord's order is used as Base Skill 3, letting him build Battleblood Instinct and Burn while saving enhanced S3.
- Heishou Pack - You BranchSinclair · Season 6

- The Lord of HongyuanHong Lu · Season 6

Priority picks
The team's core: include these Identities where possible- Firefist Office SurvivorGregor · Season 5
The team's anchor. Every skill from S1 to S3 increases Burn Count, letting him sustain Burn almost single-handedly. Higher enemy Burn also raises his Coin Power.

Enemy Burn raises his Coin Power, while his own Burn also improves damage. Can survive an otherwise lethal hit once.
- The House of Spiders: The Thumb NursefatherRodion · Season 7

- Liu Assoc. South Section 3Yi Sang · Standard
All of S1–S3 apply Burn, while his passive supports allies' SP. S3 reduces Burn Count by 2, making him easier to replace than other priority picks.
Flexible slots
Candidates for slots left after the priority picks- Cinq Assoc. East Section 3Don Quixote · Standard
Gains Haste from Poise, exploits Speed differences, and builds 3 Nerve Strike before using S3. Burn is a bonus, but her self-sufficiency makes her easy to fit into an open slot.

- The Thumb East Capo IIIIMeursault · Season 6

- Lobotomy E.G.O:: Hornet 【Alteration】Meursault · Walpurgis Night

- Lobotomy E.G.O::Magic BulletOutis · Walpurgis Night
