Skill Analysis

Normal Attack

Mid-speed melee attacks that apply Scorch. Each hit stacks a burn debuff on enemies, and at sufficient stacks triggers a Discord explosion for massive Chaos damage.

Elemental Skill (E)

Deals heavy single-target Chaos damage and applies a Discord mark. Marked enemies take additional Chaos damage when attacked for 8 seconds. Daffodil's core damage-amplification skill.

Elemental Burst (Q)

Detonates all active Scorch and Discord effects on the field, dealing massive burst damage scaled by debuff stacks. More stacks = more damage. The core rotation is stack debuffs fast then detonate with Q.

Passive Talent

+20% Crit Rate against Discord-marked enemies. Additionally, each Scorch+Discord reaction restores a small amount of energy, accelerating Q rotation.

Team Compositions

T0 Boss Team: Daffodil + Lacrimosa + Illica + Mint

Dual Chaos resonance. Lacrimosa adds Chaos DPS. Illica buffs, Mint heals. The strongest Chaos boss team.

General Team: Daffodil + Jiuyuan + Mint + Adler

Jiuyuan groups and heals. Adler sub-DPS and CC. Better for multi-target scenarios.

F2P Team: Daffodil + Protagonist + Xiaozhi + Hotori

Budget option.

Arc (Weapon) Recommendations

  2. 2A2: Faster Scorch stacking

  2. 2Apply Discord mark with E
  3. 3Detonate with Q when debuff stacks are sufficient
  4. 4Leverage passive Crit Rate against marked enemies
