6★SupportHeatPolearm

6★ Heat Vanguard built as a team engine rather than a carry. Camille's Firefang Vesperwings (Blazing Exorcism) plant Heat Susceptibility and Weaken on the primary target, his Combo (Heartstake Thorn) and Ultimate (Sanguine Downpour) return large chunks of SP to the whole squad, and casting Combo on a Vesperwing target grants the team Link for the next Battle Skill or Ultimate. Sanguine Downpour also queues a free enhanced combo for an extra SP and Link swing. He is a pure support: bring him to enable a Heat carry like Laevatain, never as a damage dealer.

Build Focus

Agility (primary attribute), then Ultimate Gain Efficiency, ATK%, and Heat DMG. Camille's value is uptime: more Ultimate Gain means more Ultimates, more SP returned to the team, and more Heat Susceptibility, Weaken, and Link windows. Build around firing his skills as often as possible rather than around personal damage. Frontiers is his BiS gear because it speeds up his Combo cooldown and converts his frequent SP recovery into a team-wide DMG buff.

Skill Priority

Battle Skill > Ultimate > Combo Skill > Normal Attack

Playstyle

Camille is a Heat Vanguard support and SP battery, not a damage dealer. Open with Firefang Vesperwings to plant Heat Susceptibility and Weaken, cast Heartstake Thorn (Combo) on a marked target to return SP and grant team Link, then cast Sanguine Downpour (Ultimate) for a large team SP return that queues a free enhanced combo. Build Agility, Ultimate Gain Efficiency, ATK%, and Heat DMG so he can fire his skills as often as possible. Frontiers is his BiS gear and Blessing of Lustrous Carmine his BiS weapon, with Beacon of Duty as the F2P substitute. Always pair him with a Heat carry like Laevatain.

Quick Reference Summary

Early Game

Use Basic/Miner gear with a 4★ Polearm like Pathfinder's Beacon. Pair with a Heat carry. P0 viable.

Mid Game

AIC Light 3pc + Chimeric Justice 5★, or Beacon of Duty if you have the Protocol Pass 6★.

Late Game

Frontiers 3pc + Beacon of Duty 6★ or Blessing of Lustrous Carmine signature.

Endgame

Frontiers 3pc + Blessing of Lustrous Carmine 6★ (Beacon of Duty for F2P).

Max Level

BiS: Frontiers 3pc + Blessing of Lustrous Carmine maxed. F2P: Frontiers 3pc + Beacon of Duty. Swap to Eternal Xiranite only when a teammate already runs Frontiers.

Source: Arsenal Exchange
Why: Best 5-star bridge for Camille. The Ultimate Gain Efficiency substat is exactly what a battery wants, helping him cycle Ultimates and return more SP to the team while you build toward a 6-star Polearm.
Investment: Solid mid-game pickup that keeps his skills cycling

When the wielder's skill applies Heat Susceptibility, the entire team gains Physical and Heat DMG Dealt +11.2% for 30.00s. The two effects apply separately and do not stack with themselves.
Why: Camille's best accessible 6-star and his top alternative to the signature. Agility primary plus a large Ultimate Gain Efficiency substat, and its Heat Susceptibility line gives the team a Physical and Heat DMG buff that lines up perfectly with his kit.
Note: Grab from the Protocol Pass if you do not pull his signature

Gear Sets

Why this set?

Cheap stat holdover while you progress toward Frontiers. Camille gains little from gear set bonuses until Frontiers unlocks, so just use AIC Light for the survivability and stats.

Why: Camille's signature and clear BiS (about 114% relative value at R9 versus an R4 baseline). Every line maps onto his loop: Ultimate Gain for more casts, a team ATK buff on his frequent SP recovery, and a team DMG buff on his Heat application.
Investment: Priority pull for Camille mains, but he performs well without it

Source: Protocol Pass
Why: Best non-signature option (about 102% relative value at R9). The Ultimate Gain substat keeps his battery role strong and the Heat Susceptibility line hands the team a Physical and Heat DMG buff.
Note: The reliable F2P pick from the Protocol Pass

After the wearer's skill recovers SP, the team gains DMG +16% for 15s. This effect cannot stack.
Why this set?

Camille's BiS gear in essentially every team. The Combo CDR lets him return SP faster, and his frequent SP recovery converts directly into a team-wide +16% DMG buff. This is the single most impactful set for his support role.

Wearer's HP +1000
After the wearer applies Amp, Protected, Susceptibility, or Weakened, other teammates gain DMG Dealt +16% for 15s. This effect cannot stack.

Situational fallback only. Its +16% team DMG buff does not stack with Frontiers, so use Eternal Xiranite only when a teammate already wears Frontiers. Camille triggers it easily via his Susceptibility and Weaken application.

Note: Use only if another teammate is locked into Frontiers; otherwise keep Camille on Frontiers

Combo Skill Cooldown Reduction +15%
After the wearer's skill recovers SP, the team gains DMG +16% for 15s. This effect cannot stack.
Why this set?

Frontiers remains Camille's BiS into endgame. There is no Tier 3 set that beats it for him: the Combo CDR plus team DMG buff on SP recovery is the core of his support value.

Recommended: Frontiers Protection Suit (Armor) + Frontiers Fiber Gloves (Gloves) + Frontiers Extra O2 Tube (Kit)

Wearer's HP +1000
After the wearer applies Amp, Protected, Susceptibility, or Weakened, other teammates gain DMG Dealt +16% for 15s. This effect cannot stack.

Run this only when a teammate already wears Frontiers. The +16% team DMG buffs do not stack, so splitting the two sets lets the team carry both buffs at once. Camille's partners Ardelia (Heat) and Gilberta (Electric) usually wear Eternal Xiranite, which is why Camille defaults to Frontiers.

Note: Use only to avoid double-stacking Frontiers with a teammate

Full optimization complete. Camille is a premier Heat-team enabler: a heavy SP battery who applies Heat Susceptibility and Weaken, grants team-wide Link, and feeds Heat Infliction to his carry. He brings no personal damage, but he raises the ceiling of any Heat team built around Laevatain.

After the wearer applies Amp, Protected, Susceptibility, or Weakened, other teammates gain DMG Dealt +16% for 15s. This effect cannot stack.

Use only when a teammate already wears Frontiers. The two +16% team DMG buffs do not stack, so splitting sets lets the team run both. Camille triggers Eternal Xiranite easily through his Susceptibility and Weaken application.

Note: Situational only; default Camille to Frontiers

Frontiers is fully F2P and remains his best set, so the F2P and BiS gear are identical. Spend essence rolls on Ultimate Gain Efficiency and ATK substats.

Tip: No gacha gear required; Frontiers is farmable and BiS

Final Build Optimization

Rotation

Open with Firefang Vesperwings (Blazing Exorcism) to plant Heat Susceptibility and Weaken on the primary target, then cast Heartstake Thorn (Combo) on a Vesperwing target to return SP and grant the team Link. Cast Sanguine Downpour (Ultimate) for a large team SP return, which queues a free enhanced combo for an extra SP and Link swing. Repeat to keep Susceptibility, Weaken, and SP flowing to your Heat carry.

Timing

Lead with Susceptibility and Weaken before your carry's burst window, then chain Combo and Ultimate so the team is at full SP and Link when Laevatain (or your Heat DPS) commits. Higher Ultimate Gain Efficiency tightens this loop and increases how often the team gets buffed.

Quick Reference
Min-Max Tips
1.

Camille is a pure support: only bring him alongside a Heat carry like Laevatain, never as a damage dealer

2.

Stack Ultimate Gain Efficiency above all else; more Ultimates means more team SP, Heat Susceptibility, and Link windows

3.

Frontiers is his BiS gear in essentially every team thanks to Combo CDR plus a team DMG buff on SP recovery

4.

Switch to Eternal Xiranite only when a teammate already wears Frontiers, since the +16% team DMG buffs do not stack

5.

His signature Blessing of Lustrous Carmine is BiS, but Beacon of Duty from the Protocol Pass is a strong F2P substitute

6.

Cast Combo on a Vesperwing-marked target to grant team Link for the next Battle Skill or Ultimate

7.

P0 viable: as a support he gains little from promotions, so a single copy is fully functional

Camille Build FAQ

What is Camille's best weapon?
Blessing of Lustrous Carmine, his signature 6★ Polearm, is BiS (about 114% relative value at R9). It boosts Ultimate Gain Efficiency, grants the team ATK on his SP recovery, and grants the team DMG on his Heat application. The best F2P option is Beacon of Duty (about 102%) from the Protocol Pass, which carries Ultimate Gain Efficiency and a team Heat DMG buff. Chimeric Justice is a fine 5★ bridge.
What gear set should Camille use?
Frontiers 3pc is his BiS in essentially every team. It gives Combo Skill Cooldown Reduction +15% and turns his frequent SP recovery into a team-wide +16% DMG buff. Use Eternal Xiranite 3pc only when a teammate already wears Frontiers, because the two +16% team DMG buffs do not stack. Camille's usual partners Ardelia and Gilberta already run Eternal Xiranite, so he stays on Frontiers.
Is Camille worth building?
Yes, if you run a Heat team. Camille is a top-tier support: a heavy SP battery who applies Heat Susceptibility and Weaken, grants team-wide Link, and feeds Heat Infliction to a carry. He brings no personal damage, so he is dead weight without a Heat DPS like Laevatain, but he raises the ceiling of any team built around one. He is P0 viable and needs no promotions.
What stats should Camille prioritize?
Agility is his primary attribute. Build Ultimate Gain Efficiency first, then ATK% and Heat DMG. As a battery, more Ultimate Gain means more Ultimates, more SP returned to the team, and more Heat Susceptibility and Link windows. He does not need crit or personal damage stats.
Who does Camille work best with?
Laevatain is his ideal partner: Camille enables a Heat carry with Susceptibility, Weaken, SP, and Link. His best team is Laevatain + Antal + Camille + Ardelia, with a double-support variant of Laevatain + Wulfgard + Camille + Ardelia. He can flex into off-element Physical teams like Mi Fu + Rossi + Camille + Pogranichnik, but never bring him without a carry to enable.
