  • Qiuyuan Gameplay and Playstyle

Qiuyuan is a 5★ Aero Sword Sub DPS who also provides valuable buffs to his teammates. In his usual state, Qiuyuan accumulates Swordster's Soliloquy through Basic Attack and Dodge Counter. When Swordster's Soliloquy reaches 200/400/600 points, Qiuyuan unlocks Thus Spoke the Blade: Inkwash (increases Energy Regen)/Bamboo's Shade (grants Echo Skill DMG Bonus to the team)/Inksplash of Mind (enhances DMG output). Besides, his Resonance Liberation can increase the Crit. DMG of all Resonators in the team. And his outro skill can grant 50% Echo Skill DMG Amplification to the incoming Resonator, making him a formidable support for certain teams.

Qiuyuan Best Echo Sets

To optimize both Qiuyuan’s support capabilities and individual damage output, the Law of Harmony Echo set stands as the premier choice. It enhances his Heavy Attack DMG while simultaneously providing an Echo Skill Bonus to teammates, thereby improving overall team performance. Players who primarily intend to maximize Qiuyuan’s supportive function should consider Moonlit Clouds as the most effective option. Conversely, those seeking to elevate his personal DPS may select Sierra Gale, which remains a compelling alternative for offense-focused builds.

Qiuyuan Best Teams Comps

Qiuyuan can increase the Echo Skill DMG of the next character, making him an excellent support for Main DPS units who rely heavily on Echo Skill DMG, such as Galbrena. However, since this buff only applies to the active on-field character, Qiuyuan offers limited benefit to Phrolova, who leaves the field after casting her Resonance Liberation.

In addition to supporting other characters, Qiuyuan can also serve as the main DPS in Hypercarry teams.
