DPS Lyney excels at dealing high damage through his Charged Attacks, supplemented by his Skill and Burst. His A4 makes him a popular choice for Mono-Pyro teams. The following recommendations assume he is paired with Bennett and equipped with Marechaussee Hunter (4). **Weapon Choices:** - The First Great Magic: With 3 stacks of the passive, this weapon outperforms Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage. Otherwise, their performance is similar. - Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage: This assessment assumes 2 passive stacks. With only 1 stack, it performs similarly to Thundering Pulse. **Artifact Sets:** - Vermillion Hereafter (4): Use this set only if Lyney can Burst every rotation. If achievable, it surpasses Lavawalker (4). Begin the rotation with Lyney's Burst when using this set. - Shimenawa's Reminiscence (4): Use this set if Lyney cannot Burst every rotation. It outperforms Lavawalker (4) under these conditions. Start the rotation with Lyney's Skill when using this set. - Retracing Bolide (4): This set is only viable if Lyney has a strong shielder. **Artifact Mainstats:** Mainstats are optimized for Marechaussee Hunter (4). Crit Rate circlet becomes more viable with non-MH sets. **Talent Priority:** Lyney's Skill and Burst talent priority depends on his Burst usage frequency and the number of Prop Surplus stacks gained per rotation.

Lyney Skills

Normal Attack: Card Force Translocation

Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 consecutive shots with a bow.

Plunging Attack
Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Charged Attack
Performs a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG.
While aiming, flames will run across the arrowhead before being fired. Different effects will occur based on the time spent charging.
·Charge Level 1: Fires off a Pyro-infused arrow, dealing Pyro DMG.
·Charge Level 2: Fires off a Prop Arrow that deals Pyro DMG, and upon hit, it will summon a Grin-Malkin Hat.
When firing the Prop Arrow, and when Lyney has more than 60% HP, he will consume a portion of his HP to obtain 1 Prop Surplus stack. Max 5 stacks. The effect will be removed after the character spends 30s out of combat.
The lowest Lyney can drop to through this method is 60% of his Max HP.

Grin-Malkin Hat
·Can taunt nearby opponents and attract their attacks. Each opponent can only be taunted by the Hat once every 5s.
·The Hat will inherit a percentage of Lyney's Max HP.
·If destroyed, or if its duration expires, it will fire off a Pyrotechnic Strike at 1 nearby opponent, dealing Pyro DMG.
Only 1 Hat can exist at any given time.

Arkhe: Pneuma
At certain intervals, the Prop Arrow will cause a Spiritbreath Thorn to descend upon its hit location, dealing Pneuma-aligned Pyro DMG.

Bewildering Lights

"Everyone knows that magicians will intentionally misdirect the audience... Ah, yes, while you were looking my way, the hat and assistant over there have both disappeared... Fascinating, is it not?"

Lyney does a flourish with his hat, unleashing a firework surprise!
When used, he will clear all current Prop Surplus stacks and deal AoE Pyro DMG to opponents in front of him. DMG will be increased according to the stacks cleared, and this will also regenerate Lyney's HP based on his Max HP.

When a Grin-Malkin Hat created by Lyney is on the field, the fireworks will cause it to explode, dealing AoE Pyro DMG equal to that of a Pyrotechnic Strike.
The DMG dealt through the Grin-Malkin Hat in this way is considered Charged Attack DMG.

Wondrous Trick: Miracle Parade

"Watch closely now. This is a time for miracles, and it belongs to just the two of us!"

Unleashing his magic, Lyney turns himself into a Grin-Malkin Cat that can move around quickly. (Not to be mistaken for the Grin-Malkin Hat. They're two different props!)
When the Grin-Malkin Cat gets close to opponents, it will send flames falling down on them, dealing at most 1 instance of Pyro DMG to each opponent. When the duration ends, he will dismiss the Grin-Malkin Cat and ignite fireworks that deal AoE Pyro DMG, summon 1 Grin-Malkin Hat, and grant himself 1 Prop Surplus stack.

Grin-Malkin Cat can be actively canceled.
