Build Notes

Chen Qianyu—endgame sub dps

Best in Slot

This endgame setup leans into Chen Qianyu's role as an enabler rather than a raw carry. Rapid Ascent supplies the burst-oriented stats her Ultimate wants, while the Qingbo set shortens her Combo Skill cooldown so Soar to the Stars fires more often and keeps Vulnerability running on the field. The gear pieces simultaneously raise Agility, Strength, Physical DMG, and Skill DMG, which matches every stat her kit actually converts into damage. The result is a sub-DPS that keeps feeding Crush and Breach opportunities to the main carry while still contributing respectable burst whenever enemies are staggered.

Rapid Ascent is picked first because her damage profile is concentrated in the Ultimate, and the weapon's Twilight effect lines up with that burst window.

Glorious Memory is the next best pick if you have access to the Protocol Pass weapon supply, trading raw attribute scaling for a Twilight proc of its own.

Sundering Steel and Aspirant are budget answers that still give useful Agility, Physical DMG, and conditional buffs that her kit can activate.

Qingbo is chosen over pure damage sets because its Combo Skill cooldown reduction feeds the Vulnerability engine that defines her value in physical lineups.

Rapid Ascent plus the Qingbo set is the strongest pairing because both sides of the kit reward the same thing: repeating skill casts.
The Qingbo bonus shortens the Combo Skill cooldown, which in practice means more Vulnerability stacks fed to the rest of the team.
Remember that the recommended armor piece comes from a different set than the rest of the listed pieces.
