Skills & Role Summary
Jiuyuan is an A-tier Anima AoE controller who marks enemies with Lethal Rose Pact through her Skill (Intel Hunter), then detonates all active Pacts simultaneously via Pact Settlement for burst Anima damage. Her Ultimate (Final Reckoning) dashes across the battlefield at high speed, continuously firing on surrounding targets before ending with a large-scale explosion. The core mechanic is: each Rose Pact target on-field grants +5% ATK (up to 15%), and Pact Settlement deals +100% DMG Ratio. She pulls enemies together, making her the premier mob-grouper for AoE teams.
Build Tips
- Invest mats after your main carry is set — Jiuyuan fits AoE slots.
- Pair with adjacent Esper Cycle elements for Duo or Triple Cycle meter fill.
- Worth banner pulls or selector if Jiuyuan fills a gap in your reaction lane.
