Common Mistakes When Building This Character
- Using wrong main stat on artifacts — stat priority beats set bonus in most cases.
- Ignoring Energy Recharge requirements — not enough ER breaks the rotation.
- Copying whale builds — most guides assume 5-star weapons and high cons.
- Over-investing in ATK when the character scales with HP, DEF, or EM.
- Not leveling the right talents first — some talent upgrades are trap investments.
