Liang Yue

Short answer: Liang Yue is a 6-Star, Star-Afflatus Arcanist who deals Reality damage and works as a DPS, Extra Action, Immunity unit. Like every Arcanist, Liang Yue hits harder when you respect the Afflatus wheel, so field Liang Yue where the Star advantage actually lands.

Afflatus and Matchups

Liang Yue uses the Star Afflatus. That means Liang Yue has the advantage against Spirit units and is at a disadvantage into Intellect units. The two element triangles never cross, so plan a small bench around them rather than forcing one team into every stage. The full breakdown lives on the Afflatus system page.

Role and Damage

Liang Yue deals Reality damage and is built for DPS, Extra Action, Immunity duties. Reality and Mental are the game's two damage types, and matching your carry's damage type to an enemy's weaker defense is a quiet but real power gain. Pair Liang Yue with teammates that cover the roles Liang Yue does not.

Building Liang Yue

Invest in one carry at a time and gear Liang Yue with the best-fitting Psychube you have before spreading materials thin. As a 6-Star Arcanist, Liang Yue is summoned from the gacha, so read the pity system before you spend: a 6-star is guaranteed by 70 pulls and the featured Arcanist is guaranteed within two 6-stars.
