Arlan is a 4★ Lightning character on the Path of Destruction. As a Destruction unit he trades survivability for power, dealing heavier Lightning damage at lower health.
How to Play
Pair Arlan with strong shielding and healing to keep his HP-based scaling safe. See his placement on the HSR tier list.
Best Build
Light Cones: A free or low-cost ATK/CRIT Destruction cone; high-HP-cost users benefit from CRIT scaling cones. Relic Set: A Lightning DMG 4pc set for elemental damage, or a generic ATK/CRIT Destruction set. Planar Ornament: A CRIT-boosting 2pc planar (e.g. an Inert Salsotto-type set) once CRIT thresholds are met. Main Stats: Body CRIT Rate/DMG, Feet ATK% or SPD, Sphere Lightning DMG, Rope ATK%. Substats: CRIT Rate > CRIT DMG > ATK% > SPD.
Best Teams
- Budget Lightning Carry: Tingyun, Asta, a strong healer.
- Self-sustain comp: a Harmony buffer, a shielder, and a reliable Abundance healer.
Kit Overview
- Skill: single-target Lightning damage that grows stronger the lower his HP.
- Ultimate: AoE Lightning burst across all enemies.
- Talent/Role: 4-star Destruction DPS that trades HP for higher damage, so he needs healing support.
Pros and Cons
Pros: Free unit with high damage when low on HP; simple kit. Cons: Fragile and HP-dependent, so he leans hard on a dedicated healer.
