Guide to Skylar Main DPS Team
By Cadence.
This guide is for 2 teams in the current patch that use Skylar as the main damage dealer. Please keep in mind that there are many ways to build teams in this game and this is just my personal thoughts combined with ideas from the community, no full team calculations were done. Feedback is very welcome!
Electroconduct
The Electroconduct team is built for Wet Environments and will do very poorly in Dry Environments. It can paralyze mobs to keep your team safe and trigger My Vision is Clear! for a huge damage multiplier even on bosses. It’s even more powerful in the new Deep Abyss location, allowing you to constantly trigger Electroconduct without a water zone creator. However, the team currently has a weakness in enemies with Block.
Characters
Each necessary role in the team will be provided along with some suggestions of the best characters to use for that role, from strongest to weakest.
Skylar (Leader)
Square Lightning
Triggers My Vision is Clear! to double the damage of the team.
Future: Kylin, Jean
Water Zone Creator
Creates Water Zones for Electroconduct to be possible. Unnecessary in the new Deep Abyss location, where this becomes a flex slot (Block breaker recommended).
- Furay & Furney
- Sambheka
- Changyao
Future: Uni, Titia
Support
Buff and heal the team.
Memory Traces
Core traces are bolded. Listed Inspire traces are fastest but can be replaced by other Inspire traces that the team can trigger (try to still keep the stats balanced).
Stat Priority: 1000 VIT > Max ATK/MST > VIT/DEF
- (DEF) My Vision is Clear!
- (VIT) Into the Fantasy.
- (MST) Born from Ashes [Inspire].
- (ATK) Lucky Find [Inspire].
- (MST) Silent Yesterday.
- (VIT) Managing Marks / (ATK) Beneath the Deception.
Explosion
The Explosion team is built for Dry Environments and will do very poorly in Wet Environments. It focuses on pure damage rather than control or defense, but it comes with a flex slot to adjust the team to your preferences or the stage you’re having trouble with. Skylar L7 is important for this team to maximize damage.
Characters
Each necessary role in the team will be provided along with some suggestions of the best characters to use for that role, from strongest to weakest.
Skylar (Leader)
Fire Zone Creator
Creates Fire Zones for Explosion to be possible. Using a Striker additionally helps break Block that otherwise Skylar might struggle with.
- Cyros (dupe 1 preferred)
- Reid
- Any other Fire Zone creator
Future: Thea, Lynn
Support
Buff and heal the team. With an ice character, you can trigger Melt for even more damage.
- Boreas
- Freda
- Bellia
- Any other support.
Flex
Use any character according to your preferences or the stage. For example, a second Fire Zone creator, a second Lightning DPS like Lydia, Strikers like Baili Tusu, Melt activators like Begonia, Barrier characters like Luke…
Memory Traces
Core traces are bolded. Listed Inspire traces are fastest but can be replaced by other Inspire traces that the team can trigger (try to still keep the stats balanced).
Stat Priority: 1000 VIT > Max ATK/MST > VIT/DEF
- (VIT) Into the Fantasy.
- (MST) Born from Ashes [Inspire].
- (ATK) Lucky Find [Inspire].
- (VIT) Managing Marks / (VIT) Company.
- (ATK) Beneath the Deception / (ATK) Emptiness.
