Basic Introduction
Aventurine is a a powerful Preservation character. He can grant all allies a shield by using his Skill. When an enemy attacks a shielded ally or an ally does a follow-up attack, he will charge his follow- up that will also stack the shield effect up to 200% of the Skill’s shield amount. It is important to note that all Aventurine’s attack scales from his DEF.
Trace Priority
Aventurine relies mostly on his Skill and Talent to maximize the amount of the shield generated. To maximize his potential, focus on upgrading his Skill and Talent with his Ultimate. His Basic ATK is the least important trace since the scaling does not have much of a difference. In short, his trace priority is Skill > Talent > Ultimate > Basic ATK.

Recommended Teams
Follow-Up Team
Aventurine excels as a sustain character for follow-up attack teams. His ability to provide powerful, stacking shields with Fortified Wager ensures team survivability while granting significant Effect RES to shielded allies. These shields stack dynamically and scale with Aventurine's DEF, allowing for immense durability across multiple turns. When allies or Aventurine himself are attacked while shielded, his Blind Bet stacks build quickly, triggering high-damage follow-up attacks that also regenerate energy and shred enemy Toughness.
In a follow-up team, Aventurine pairs exceptionally well with characters like Topaz, Moze, or March 7th, whose mechanics generate frequent follow-up attacks to charge Aventurine’s abilities and maximize his shield-refreshing synergy. Dr. Ratio benefits from Aventurine’s Unnerved debuff which amplifies CRIT DMG against enemies, enhancing team-wide DPS. Feixiao contributes additional follow-up damage and makes full use of Aventurine’s defensive and offensive capability.
This composition balances outstanding survivability, strong Toughness-breaking potential, and consistent damage output, making Aventurine the backbone of any follow-up-focused team.
Main DPS: Feixiao / Dr. Ratio
Sub DPS: March 7th / Moze / Topaz

Acheron Team
Acheron teams thrive on generating stacks to accelerate her Ultimate, and Aventurine is an ideal partner to support this strategy. His Fortified Wager shields not only keep the team alive but also synergize with frequent attacks and debuff applications that help Acheron maximize her stack generation. Aventurine’s Ultimate applies the Unnerved debuff which increases CRIT DMG taken by enemies, further amplifying Acheron’s damage potential.
Aventurine’s frequent follow-up attacks from his Blind Bet mechanic contribute to building stacks for Acheron while simultaneously regenerating his energy and dealing Toughness damage.
Additionally, his shields and Effect RES bonuses ensure that Acheron and the rest of the team stay protected long enough for her to repeatedly unleash her powerful Ultimate.
This team benefits from Aventurine’s shielding, consistent Toughness damage, and his ability to maintain offensive pressure while supporting Acheron’s stack-centric playstyle. Together, they form a well-rounded synergy that balances sustain, stack-building, and burst potential.
