Antal

endgame support

supporterbufferdebuffer

Antal is an Electric Supporter who excels at boosting Electric and Heat damage for the team. His A-tier rating reflects strong team-wide buffs and debuffs, but his effectiveness is limited to teams that utilize these two elements.

For Heat teams, this build leverages the Stanza of Memorials to boost team ATK after ultimate, and the Qingbo gear set to cycle Combo Skill faster for extra status applications. It works best when another support already carries Eternal Xiranite. Focus on Ultimate Gain and Combo Skill uptime to maintain debuffs and buffs.

Insights

Core Mechanics

Applies a long-duration Focus debuff that inflicts Electric and Heat Susceptibility on a single target.
Ultimate grants all teammates Electric Amp and Heat Amp, significantly boosting elemental damage.
Combo Skill adds an extra stack of Physical Status or Arts Infliction when triggered, extending status effects.
Talent provides minor healing to Amped allies after they deal skill damage.

Scaling

Scales well with Ultimate Gain Efficiency to maximize uptime of team-wide buffs.
Potentials enhance Ultimate strength and reduce its cost, improving consistency.

Team Role

Antal is a dedicated support for Electric and Heat compositions. He uses his Battle Skill to apply Focus and Susceptibility on a key enemy, then casts Ultimate to buff the entire team before the main damage rotation. His Combo Skill can amplify existing status effects, and his Talent offers sustain. He works best alongside Electric or Heat hypercarries like Laevatain or Ember, but offers negligible utility to teams of other elements.
