CRIT DMG
Lyney does high damage using his Charged Attacks along with supplemental damage from his Skill and Burst. Because of his A4, he is commonly used in Mono-Pyro teams. Weapon rankings assume he is used with Bennett and using Marechaussee Hunter (4).
Regarding Weapon Choices:
- The First Great Magic: This weapon assumes 2 passive stacks. With 3 stacks of the passive, this weapon is much better than Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage. Otherwise, it performs similarly.
- Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage: This weapon assumes 2 passive stacks. With only 1 passive stack it performs similarly to Thundering Pulse.
Regarding Artifacts:
- Vermillion Hereafter (4): Only use this set if Lyney can Burst every rotation. If he can, this set is better than Lavawalker (4). Start your rotation with Lyney's Burst if using this set.
- Shimenawa's Reminiscence (4): Only use this set if Lyney cannot Burst every rotation. If the following is true, this set is better than Lavawalker (4). Start your rotation with Lyney's Skill if using this set.
- Retracing Bolide (4): Only worthwhile if Lyney uses a strong shielder.
Regarding Artifact Main Stats: Main Stats are assuming Lyney is using Marechaussee Hunter (4). Crit Rate circlet becomes more viable on non-MH sets.
Regarding Talent Priority: Lyney's Skill and Burst talent priority largely depends on how often he uses his Burst and how many Prop Surplus stacks he gains per rotation.
