Burst up: Cast Burst (Q) then Skill (E). Follow with combo: N2D, 2N3D, N1C, 2N2C.
Burst down: Use Skill (E) first. Then combo: N1C, 5N2C, N1.

Spread DPS – Maximizes his kit by leveraging Spread reactions and Elemental Mastery-scaling Skill for significant damage. High on-field Dendro application and flexible teams suit Quicken/Quickbloom. Prioritize leveling to 90/90.
Light of Foliar Incision – Prefers Elemental Mastery sands even with fewer Spread procs (Bloom/Burgeon/Hyperbloom).
Toukabou Shigure – Best in single‑target; in AoE, falls behind Iron Sting and Blackcliff Longsword.
Harbinger of Dawn – With near‑perfect passive uptime, performs similarly to Haran Geppaku Futsu.
Xiphos' Moonlight / Festering Desire – Similar to The Black Sword in teams with higher Energy Recharge needs.
Wolf-Fang – At [R5], matches Haran Geppaku Futsu and Mistsplitter Reforged.
Uraku Misugiri – With a Geo unit, equals Light of Foliar Incision or slightly better in AoE when Foliar loses stacks.
Gilded Dreams (4) – Best if another unit holds Deepwood Memories; otherwise Deepwood Memories (4) is optimal.
Deepwood Memories (2) / Emblem of Severed Fate (2) / +80 EM set (2) – Split sets can match or surpass Gilded Dreams (4) with higher Energy Recharge needs or better substats.
Marechaussee Hunter (4) – With Furina, this is his best set.
Main Stat Priorities – In Quicken/Quickbloom: Elemental Mastery sands (~5% better). In Bloom/Burgeon/Hyperbloom with few Spread: ATK% sands (unless using Light of Foliar Incision). Energy Recharge sands for burst every rotation and more Dendro seeds.
