Jiaoqiu Basic Introduction

 

When Jiaoqiu hit an enemy with his Basic ATK, Skill or Ultimate, he can inflict the debuff  "Ashen Roast" to the enemy, which can increase the DMG received by the enemy. And his Ultimate can activate a zone, futhering boosting the Ultimate damage the enemies received. Besides, "Ashen Roast" can cause Fire DoT damage, making Jiaoqiu possible to be a part of the DoT teams.

Trace Priority


Prioritize levelling up Jiaoqiu's talent. Talent is Jiaoqiu's primary damage source and support tool. Next, work on upgrading his Ultimate. But if your Jiaoqiu is mainly used in a DoT team, this may not be as critical. As for his Basic ATK and Skill, they don't provide significant combat advantages, so you can conserve resources by skipping their upgrades. Extra traces are all important to be unlocked. And other traces of Stat bonus can be selectively unlocked according to your own situation. In conclusion, the trace priority for Jiaoqiu is Talent > Ultimate > Skill > Basic ATK.

Light Cones

 

1. Best choice: Those Many Springs

HP: 952.6丨 ATK: 582.12丨DEF: 529.20

 

Increases the wearer's Effect Hit Rate by 60.0% / 70.0% / 80.0% / 90.0% / 100.0% . After the wearer uses Basic ATK, Skill or Ultimate to attack an enemy target, there is a 60.0% base chance to inflict "Unarmored" on the target. While in the Unarmored state, the enemy target receives 10.0% / 12.0% / 14.0% / 16.0% / 18.0% increased DMG, lasting for 2.0 turn(s). If the target is under a DoT state inflicted by the wearer, there is a 60.0% base chance to upgrade the "Unarmored" state inflicted by the wearer to the "Cornered" state, which additionally increases the DMG the enemy target receives by 14.0% / 16.0% / 18.0% / 20.0% / 22.0% , lasting for 2.0 turn(s). During this period, the wearer cannot inflict "Unarmored" on the target.

 

Jiaoqiu's signature weapon, Those Many Springs, provides an Effect Hit Rate of 60%, helping with gaining the maximum buffs from Jiaoqiu's Bonus Ability, Hearth Kindle. And its weapon effect, Unarmored, can further improving Jiaoqiu's support abilities of increasing enemies' damage received. 

 

2. Five-star Alternatives: Reforged Remembrance or Incessant Rain

Increases the wearer's Effect Hit Rate by 40.0% / 45.0% / 50.0% / 55.0% / 60.0% . When the wearer deals DMG to an enemy inflicted with Wind Shear, Burn, Shock, or Bleed, each respectively grants 1 stack of Prophet, stacking up to 4.0 time(s). In a single battle, only 1 stack of Prophet can be granted for each type of DoT. Every stack of Prophet increases wearer's ATK by 5.0% / 6.0% / 7.0% / 8.0% / 9.0% and enables the DoT dealt to ignore 7.2% / 7.9% / 8.6% / 9.3% / 10.0% of the target's DEF.
