Why this set?

BiS for Laevatain. The Combustion trigger aligns perfectly with her kit. No better set.

Source: Wuling Gear Template Crates, Gear Assembly with Xiranite + Wuling Bills

Alternative Tide Surge (3pc)

All Skill DMG +20%

After applying 2+ stacks of Arts Infliction, Arts DMG +35% for 15s.

Arts DPS alternative. Works well if you need more Skill DMG than Heat DMG.

Note: Use Hot Work for pure Heat DPS. Consider Tide Surge for hybrid build.

F2P Option Catastrophe 3pc + Hot Work Off-piece (Daily Farm Build) (3pc Catastrophe + 1pc Hot Work)

Ultimate Gain Efficiency +20%

Start battle with 50 SP immediate recovery.

4-piece Ultimate Gain setup for daily farming comfort. Start each fight with 50 SP for faster Ultimate access. Trade-off: ~20-25% lower damage than full Hot Work, but much smoother gameplay. Alternative: Keep using maxed Aburrey's Legacy (Tier 2) if Hot Work farm is difficult.

Tip: Best F2P option for max level daily farming. Prioritize UGE substats. For boss content, switch to full Hot Work 3pc for maximum damage.

Upgrade Path: Farm Hot Work pieces gradually, replacing Catastrophe. Keep Catastrophe 2pc bonus active until you get 3pc Hot Work. For pure DPS content, transition to full Hot Work immediately when available.
