This article will conduct a comprehensive analysis from multiple angles such as character characteristics, skill mechanisms, lineup matching, and version activities to help players get started quickly and build a strong team.
1. Introduction to new characters and core mechanisms
1. Xiadie-Life Sacrifice of Quantum Attribute Memory Destiny
Xiadie, as a new five-star quantum attribute memory destiny character in version 3.2, has a unique health value control mechanism. She increases her output by sacrificing the health of teammates, and has a powerful auxiliary ability to summon the memory spirit dead dragon to reduce all resistance.
Skill highlights: The ultimate skill summons the Memory Dragon, which significantly reduces the enemy’s resistance of all types and improves the output capacity of the whole team; its attack is linked to the upper limit of life, which can not only bear a certain durability, but also deal burst damage.
Gameplay suggestions: Xiadie relies heavily on reasonable life management. It is recommended to match it with efficient treatment and shield characters (such as Lingke and Pella) to alleviate the risks brought by life consumption. When releasing the ultimate skill, give priority to cooperating with teammates’ high burst skills to achieve maximum damage output.
Strategic value: Xiadie creates an excellent output environment for the team through the resistance reduction mechanism. At the same time, her life consumption mechanism increases the complexity and depth of the team’s operation. It is suitable for players who like strategy and high-risk and high-reward gameplay.
2. Na Kexia – Elemental Weakness Manipulator of Ice Attribute Intellectual Destiny
Nakexia is a five-star ice attribute intellectual destiny character who focuses on applying multiple elemental weaknesses and bursting out powerful range damage through elemental reactions.
Skill highlights: The ultimate skill applies seven elemental weaknesses to all enemies on the field, greatly enhancing the triggering of elemental reactions; the talent skill “Quartet of the Wise” can randomly add weaknesses to the attack target and quickly stack elemental effects.
Gameplay suggestions: Naksha is suitable for playing with characters with elements such as fire, thunder, and wind, and using elemental weakness stacking and high-frequency triggering burst damage. Recommended combinations include Dan Heng and Xiluwa to build an efficient elemental reaction chain.
Strategic value: Naksha greatly enhances the team’s elemental reaction ability. Whether it is the main C or the double C lineup, it can play an important role and is the core role in the elemental flow gameplay.
2. Version key optimization and activity benefits
1. Character activity transition customization is open
In version 3.2, the character activity transition has added the function of customizing 7 non-limited 5-star characters. Players can freely match according to their own character pool, which greatly improves the flexibility of the activity and strategic selection.
