Build Notes

Da Pan — endgame dps

Rank #3

Da Pan’s endgame build revolves around the Aethertech gear set and the Exemplar greatsword. Aethertech dramatically amplifies his Physical DMG whenever he applies or consumes Vulnerability – a core loop of his kit. Exemplar further magnifies this by granting a temporary Physical DMG surge after using a Battle Skill or Ultimate. Together, they turn his Combo Skill into a devastating nuke. The off‑set gloves boost Physical DMG, while the alternative weapons (Sundered Prince and Ancient Canal) offer accessible ways to achieve similar burst potential, with Sundered Prince favoured for its Critical Rate.

Exemplar is the top pick because it grants a huge Physical DMG increase after casting any skill or Ultimate, directly empowering the Combo Skill that follows Vulnerability consumption.

The Aethertech set synergises natively with Da Pan’s playstyle: it raises ATK and adds up to 32% Physical DMG (4 stacks) when Vulnerability is applied, plus an extra 16% when the target already has 4 stacks.

Swordmancer TAC Gloves are used as the off‑piece for their additional Physical DMG bonus, further stacking with the set effect.

Sundered Prince is a strong free‑to‑play alternative, offering a Critical Rate boost and ATK increase through Final Strike.

Ancient Canal works if you lack the above; it provides Brutality and Strength scaling, though it lacks the Crit Rate of Sundered Prince.

Maximises Physical DMG through the Aethertech set’s ATK boost and extra Physical DMG from keeping enemies Vulnerable.
Exemplar’s massive Physical DMG buff after using a Battle Skill or Ultimate perfectly aligns with Da Pan’s burst cycle.

Da Pan — early game dps

Rank #2

This early‑game setup focuses on flat damage increases before Vulnerability‑based sets become available. Sundered Prince’s Critical Rate helps consistency, and the Aburrey’s Legacy set augments every skill with extra Skill DMG and stacking ATK bonuses. It ensures Da Pan remains a potent DPS while farming for his endgame Aethertech equipment.

Sundered Prince is the best early weapon because it is freely available and gives Critical Rate plus an ATK buff on Final Strike, directly improving all of Da Pan’s damage.

Aburrey’s Legacy boosts Skill DMG universally and gives separate ATK stacks for Battle Skill, Combo Skill, and Ultimate usage – covering all of Da Pan’s damage sources.

Ancient Canal and Industry 0.1 are decent substitutes if Sundered Prince hasn’t been pulled; Ancient Canal offers Brutality and Strength, while Industry 0.1 provides Suppression and ATK boosts.

Aburrey’s Legacy provides a flat 24% Skill DMG bonus and an ATK buff after using any skill, making it a reliable early‑game set.
Sundered Prince is obtainable from the New Horizons banner and offers Critical Rate and ATK boosts.
