Wulfgard
Sendgame support
dpssupport
Wulfgard is a Heat Caster capable of applying two stacks of Heat Infliction for team setups or consuming Combustion or Electrification to unleash his enhanced Battle Skill. While his damage output as a DPS is modest and limited to single-target, he excels as an Infliction support by enabling powerful Arts Reactions.
This support build focuses on rapidly applying Heat Infliction to enable teammates like Laevatain. OBJ Velocitous and the Qingbo set reduce cooldowns and boost Ultimate energy, allowing Wulfgard to maintain a steady flow of Combustion and Heat stacks. The build sacrifices personal damage for team utility, making it ideal for reaction-heavy compositions.
Insights
Core Mechanics
- Applies Heat Infliction via Combo Skill and Ultimate, setting up Combustion for high-damage reactions.
- Battle Skill consumes Combustion or Electrification to fire an extra shot with massive damage.
- Talent Scorching Fangs boosts Heat DMG after applying Combustion.
Scaling
- Early game focuses on raw stats like Strength and Attack; later builds leverage Heat DMG and Combat Skill cooldown reduction.
- DPS build requires high investment in Strength, Agility, and Arts Intensity to maximize Combustion DoT.
- Support build scales with Ultimate Gain Efficiency to enable more frequent Combustion applications.
Team Role
Wulfgard fits as either a primary single-target DPS or a dedicated Heat Infliction support. As a DPS, he pairs well with characters who apply other elements for Combustion setup. As a support, he synergizes with Laevatain by providing stacks of Heat Infliction for her Melting Flame talent, boosting her overall damage. His flexible role allows him to slot into various team compositions that capitalize on Heat reactions.

Explanation
OBJ Velocitous maximizes Ultimate Gain Efficiency, letting Wulfgard cast Wolven Fury more often to apply Combustion for Laevatain synergy.
Rational Farewell is a damage alternative if Ultimate charging is not an issue.
Qingbo set's cooldown reduction enables rapid Heat Infliction applications, essential for supporting Laevatain's Melting Flame stacks.
Redeemer Seal provides additional Ultimate Gain, ensuring consistent Combustion uptime.
Notes
- Qingbo set reduces Combo Skill cooldown, allowing more frequent Heat Infliction applications.
- Redeemer Seal off-piece greatly boosts Ultimate Gain for more Combustion procs.
