Max Level 80+

Weapons

Option Weapon Rarity Effect How to Get
BiS Dreams of the Starry Beach (Maxed) 6★ Treatment Efficiency +29.8%. After consuming Corrosion, target enemy suffers Arts DMG Taken +20% for 25s. Cannot stack. FREE from 10-day login reward (v1.0)
F2P Wild Wanderer (Maxed) 5★ Treatment Efficiency +29%. After giving HP Treatment, gains ATK +22.4% for 15s. Arsenal Exchange

Gear Sets

Best in Slot Eternal Xiranite (Optimized) (3pc + 1 off-piece) Tier 3
HP +1000
After applying Susceptibility (via Battle Skill), team gains +16% DMG Dealt for 15s.
Why this set?

BiS for Ardelia. Her Battle Skill applies Susceptibility, triggering team-wide +16% DMG. No better set for support Ardelia.

Source: Wuling Gear Template Crates, Gear Assembly with Xiranite + Wuling Bills
F2P Option Catastrophe 3pc + Eternal Xiranite Off-piece (Daily Farm Build) (3pc Catastrophe + 1pc Eternal Xiranite)
Ultimate Gain Efficiency +20%
Start battle with 50 SP immediate recovery.

F2P-friendly max level setup. Catastrophe provides excellent UGE for frequent Ultimate healing. Mix with one Eternal Xiranite piece when available. At max refinement and optimal substats, only ~15-20% behind full Eternal Xiranite team buff potential.

Tip: Best F2P option for max level daily farming. Prioritize UGE substats. For high-level content, switch to full Eternal Xiranite 3pc for maximum team damage.

Upgrade Path: Farm Eternal Xiranite pieces gradually, replacing Catastrophe one piece at a time. Keep best substatted Catastrophe piece as off-piece if it has high UGE rolls.
