Build Notes

This endgame sub-DPS build turns Chen Qianyu into a reliable Vulnerability engine without sacrificing her burst potential. Rapid Ascent magnifies her Ultimate damage, while the Qingbo gear pieces (Armor, Gloves, and two Positioning Kits) shorten her Combo Skill cooldown and increase Skill DMG after each Combo. Stat priority on Agility and Strength directly translates to stronger Physical damage, ensuring she can support Crush/Breach allies while still contributing meaningful personal output.
Rapid Ascent is preferred because most of Chen Qianyu's damage is concentrated in Blade Gale; the weapon's Twilight boon amplifies her burst window while Critical Rate boosts consistency.
The Qingbo set synergizes with her kit by reducing Soar to the Stars cooldown, allowing more frequent Vulnerability refreshes for the team.
Glorious Memory is a strong Protocol Pass alternative, while Sundering Steel and Aspirant are budget picks that still provide Agility and Physical DMG bonuses when the top weapons are unavailable.
  • Rapid Ascent's Twilight essence pairs with Chen Qianyu's Ultimate-heavy rotation, making it her strongest sword for endgame content.
  • The Qingbo set cuts Combo Skill cooldown and grants stacking Skill DMG after each Combo cast, improving both Vulnerability uptime and burst damage.
  • Prioritize Agility and Strength because they feed her main and secondary attributes and raise her Physical damage output.
This early-game build pairs Sundering Steel with the Roving MSGR set to get Chen Qianyu off the ground quickly. The set's flat Agility bonus and Physical DMG condition work cleanly with her Lift-based rotation, while Sundering Steel adds more Physical DMG and Agility. It is a budget-friendly path that still allows her to apply Vulnerability and deal meaningful damage before transitioning to Qingbo.
Sundering Steel is the early-game pick because it combines Physical DMG Boost, Agility Boost, and the Combative effect, all of which Chen Qianyu can use from the moment she joins the roster.
The Roving MSGR jacket, fists, and gyro pieces are easy to acquire and give her Agility plus a Physical DMG buff when she keeps her HP high.
Once players can farm Rapid Ascent or Glorious Memory with Qingbo gear, they should swap off this starter setup for the endgame build.
  • Roving MSGR provides flat Agility and a conditional Physical DMG boost while HP stays above 80%, matching Chen Qianyu's early stat needs.
  • Both Roving MSGR Gyro pieces grant bonus Attack, making this set especially easy to slot in during progression.
  • This build is low-investment and lets her contribute Vulnerability stacks before the Qingbo endgame pieces are farmed.
