I. Heroes & Relics: The Secret to a Perfect Match!

Relic set effects vary, but the key to choosing is “matching” your hero’s role and skill traits. Remember, there’s no single “best” Relic; only the best one for your hero!

1. Core Damage Dealers (Mages, Assassins, some damage-focused Warriors/Rangers)
   • Traits: Aim for max damage to quickly crush enemies.
   • Recommended Sets:
     • Titan Rage Set (20% Damage Boost): A straightforward damage increase, perfect for any hero focused purely on output, like Faya, Fan, Bloodlady, Jiguang, YangJian, and Odin.
     • Dawn Break Set (15% Team Damage Boost for first 3 turns): Ideal for burst lineups, especially in PvP or speed-clearing dungeons. Pair it with support like Aria (team-wide healing) or Scholar (shields) to ensure your Assassins and Mages unleash explosive damage right from the start.
     • Example Build: Nobel (Fire S-tier Assassin) and Faya (Fire S-tier Mage) form a Burn team. Nobel especially benefits from Titan Rage Set to maximize bonus damage against burning enemies.
2. Frontline Tanks (Warriors, some damage-absorbing Rangers)
   • Traits: Absorb damage, protect the backline, provide crowd control or counter-attacks.
   • Recommended Sets:
     • Steel Barrier Set (20% Damage Reduction): A must-have for tanks! Significantly boosts survivability, letting your front-liners like Ray, Whiteedge, Gao ChangGong, Tesla, and Emma last longer.
     • Twilight Guard Set (15% Team Damage Reduction for first 3 turns): Great for teams needing a stable start, especially against enemies with high opening burst. Pair with Sharkie (shield 牧師) to ensure early-game survival.
     • Life Spring Set (Restore 5% Max HP at turn end): Perfect for tanks needing sustained healing, like Whiteedge (Self-Healing Warrior), allowing him to recover continuously after taking damage.
     • Phoenix Rebirth Set (One Revive, Restore 15% HP – unique effect): Provides huge error margin! Can be considered for all hero types, especially Warriors and tanks absorbing frontline damage, or key damage dealers/supports who are often targeted.
     • Wrath Soul Set (30% chance to Stun all enemies for 2 turns upon death): Suitable for “sacrifice” strategies or teams wanting their tank to contribute even after falling. Great for semi-tanky Warriors like Gao ChangGong or Tesla, providing crowd control to create opportunities for allies.
3. Support/Control (Pastors, some control-focused Mages/Rangers)
   • Traits: Provide healing, shields, buffs, or restrict enemy actions.
   • Recommended Sets:
     • Swift Thunder Set (100 Team Speed Boost): Pastors and control-focused Mages/Assassins’ top choice! Speed is key for survival and getting the first turn, letting heroes like Scholar, Aria, Yiguang, and Frostshadow heal, shield, or control enemies faster, disrupting opponent rhythm.
     • Life Spring Set (Restore 5% Max HP at turn end): Boosts the survivability of support heroes, allowing them to provide continuous aid.
     • Steel Barrier Set (20% Damage Reduction): Ensures your support heroes survive, because only living supports can provide healing and buffs.
     • Dark Healing Restraint Set (Reduce all enemy healing by 20% for first 3 turns): A powerful tool against high-sustain enemy teams. Your damage dealers (like YangJian) or supports (like Liuwen) equipped with this set can effectively suppress enemy recovery.
4. Niche Function (Counter-Attack, DoT, Debuff, Control)
   • Traits: Possess unique mechanics that require specific pairings to maximize effectiveness.
   • Recommended Sets:
     • Flame Judgment / Viper Kiss / Blood Lament Set (20% chance to Burn/Poison/Bleed attacker for 2 turns when attacked): Suitable for semi-tanky damage-dealing Warriors or Rangers who can take hits and provide extra damage, like Gao ChangGong (Counter-Attack Warrior) or Lothar (Poison Ranger).
     • Dark Healing Restraint Set: Effective against healing-focused teams. For instance, Lee (Dark S-tier Debuff 牧師) can reduce enemy healing while dealing damage.
