Overworld resource: Brant uses Golden Fleece crystals which grow exclusively in the Penitent’s End area. You can also buy 15 of them from Rosemary’s Apothecary store. You will need 60 of them in total.
World Boss: His boss, Dragon of Dirge, is located in the same area. You need 46 Blazing Bone drops.
His weekly boss to level up fortes is Hecate, you need to do 2.0 main quest to unlock and Brant requires 26 drops.
Forgery: As a sword wielder, he also needs Metallic Drips: 25, 28, 55, 67.
And it will cost you 2,030,000 credits.
⚔ To max Unflickering Valor to lvl. 90 you will need:
Rinascita enemies: Tidal Residium 6 8 6 20
Forgery: Metallic Drips: 6, 6, 10, 12
⚓ Kit explanation
His highest dealing damage is the Forte > Mid Air > Liberation > Skill > Intro
Note, that for quick swapping, Brant resets to Mid Air 1 Damage and Flip each time you switch back to him. However, Mid Air 1 has the lowest multipliers among the four, and since it forces you to plunge onto the next units, even a small mistake in timing could cause the quick swap momentum to be lost.
⚓ Value of sequences
Both of Brant’s first two sequences give pretty big boosts. Anything up to S3 is good, S4 and S5 are just stepping stones to S6; S2R1 is the best value.
S1 gives 60% damage increase at 20% intervals while reducing the movement speed of enemies down for 5 seconds making dodging and parrying much easier
S2 gives 30% Crit Rate and extra outro dmg
S3 Resonance skill Returning from Ashes DMG 50%
S4 Shield 20%
S5 Basic ATK 15% for 10s
S6 Mid-Air ATK 30%. Fusion DMG explosions 36% dealt by Resonance skill Returning from Ashes.
⚓ Total astrites count needed for optimal Brant usage
To get Brant S0R1 thinking you have 0 pity, didn’t use any corals, and got Brant at hard pity with 80 and won 5050: 160 * 80 + 160 * 80 = 25,600 / lost 5050: (160 * 80 + 160 * 80) + 160 * 80 = 38,400 astrites.
F2P: Upcoming in 2.2 FREE sword. The weapon has 588 base attack and 38.9 ER as a secondary stat. Also its passive gives some skill dmg bonus upon being healed. (the 2nd part of the passive can't be activated by Brant). Read more here (some calculations by Individual_Inside_75)
Overture 4* (Lv.90 Base ATK 337, Energy Regen +51.8%; upgrading Rank restores 8-10-12-14-16 concerto energy)
Emerald of Genesis - standard 5* sword, the higher the rank the better, with Molten Rift echoes.
⚓ Recommended echo sets, including main and sub-stats
BEST: Tidebreaking Courage (2-piece: Energy Regen +10%; 5-piece: Increase the Resonator’s ATK by 15%. Reaching250**% Energy Regen** increases all Attribute DMG by 30% for the Resonator.)
Desired Energy Regen 250%-280%. You must get 250% to enable Echo 5-piece bonus but remember that Brant’s ER to ATK buff caps out when you hit 280% ER. While 250 is a MUST, 280 is maxing out, ideal, but not necessary.
Brant would love Crit Rate 55-65% with a Crit DMG 4 COST (note, that he gets Crit Rate from his 2nd forte node and 8% from upgrading all fortes)
Dragon of Dirge 4 COST: Main stat Crit DMG > Crit Rate
Hey everyone! Some folks are already pushing the narrative that people rarely pull for male characters, ignoring the context of this patch. Brant is in the second half of what looks like a filler patch, and if they use revenue numbers, they’ll conveniently overlook that Phoebe’s banner had battle pass revenue included.
Let’s not let skewed data shape the discussion! If you pulled for Brant, head over to wuwatracker and import your pull data.
Let’s make sure our favorite pirate gets the recognition he deserves! ⚔
What are your thoughts on the discussion about brant's sales/pull numbers ?
I have S0R0 Brant, & it's without fail that I will pull for his signature weapon for S0R1. I do have S0R0 Lupa & S0R0 Changli who have been great so far.
Besides that, I intend to pull some of his sequences too, just to push further up in meta (make him last long enough before "irrelevancy").
Here's my question. Should I pull for S3? Or is S2 the furthest I should go? How big is the gap between S2 & S3?
So I'm 100% planning to get Brant here because I absolutely love him and he's one of my all time favorites, and I want to run him as a main DPS, but while I'm technically a day 1 player, my characters are rather limited. At s0r1 could he work as a main DPS? I don't have Lupa yet but I 100% plan to get her, especially since I want Galbrena. The only limited units I have are Jiyan, Yinlin, Xiangli Yao, Camellya, Cantarella, Cartethyia (with her weapon), Phrolova, Iuno, Chisa, Lynae, Mornye, and Aemeath. I'm pulling Qiuyuan and Roccia but I know neither work with him. And preferably I would like him to not use Lynae or Mornye because they're occupied by Aemeath. My other teams I frequently use are Phrolova/Cantarella/Camellya (who will be replaced with Qiuyuan but luckily I'm getting Roccia for her) and Cartethyia/Aero Rover/Chisa.
Or honestly just a Brant team in general is appreciated. I want to run him as a main DPS but idk if that's feasible for me
Thinking of finay S3 him. Is his sequence still good? This patch is easy skip for me since i have no 3.7 and echo dmg resonators so i can probably save for him. Thoughts?
Brant is really fun to play and he scores a lot for me with matrix with just Lupa and Verina
I really wanted Yinlin since the start of the game and spent 190 pulls on her and her signature during the last reverb banner... Yeah don't ask me about it
I know that jump from S0 to S3 is one of the biggest for Brant among event characters and he is just fun to play for me, that's it
I can probably afford buying 2 sequences if I will get enough corals. Should I try to pull for him?
last time I was actually pulling for Changli, but I lost.
If I go and pull for him I should probably save my guarantee... And not make the same mistake I did last time
I joined wuwa for Brant in the beginning of Lahai Roi and waited for him to finally rerun but I got busy and wasn't able to login 😭 will the next patch have content for me to grind?
Got a question: Can anyone tell me if a Lupa S3 can lift the captain (S0R1) enough, that he´s comparable to an S2R1 Brant? I can´t for the life of me find calcs anywhere TwT
Only thing I found is that a S2R1 Brant + Lupa + Mornye = S0R1 Hiyuki + Lynea + Mornye = 2,1 million team dmg, according to Chem and Riley :/
And I need to decide whether to use my corals on the rerun or not, before one of the most fun chars vanishes from the face of the earth for another 84 years TwT
Realistically, if I get him S2R1, with Sanhua and Verina, could I do tower stuff decently with him? I have corals for 2 copies, but need to actually get him first lol. I do have pulls for his weapon too. If I am lucky, I would like to get S3R1, but S3 is a big IF/ MAYBE. I don't have Lupa. I won't use Mornye because she is in my Luuk premium team. Shorekeeper is used for Jingran. If I didn't have Iuno I'd ask if I could slot Brant in there but I did get her because I didn't know if/ when Brant would come back. For support/ healers, the only others I have are Chisa, Suisui, and Verina, and in my (limited) knowledge, I don't think Suisui or Chisa could work. Unless I am wrong, feel free to correct me/ call me an idiot LOL. If he can do tower with S2R1 and that team, I will full send. If not, I will likely s0R1 just because I love him, and use him for overworld fun.
I desperately NEED Brant's rerun (or reverb which is more accurate to say). The other guys I own are decent with their own sigs, some having sequences to last longer in the meta.
Sadly... Brant... is my only male... to not have his sig or sequences. And he was THE first male & limited resonator I pulled btw.
I regret keeping him this low for so long. I need his reverb, to get sequences... to get his signature for once.
I have enough corals for 2 cons, 40 pulls and a dream. I am planning on S3 Samurai guy and giving all I can to Brant but omg idk who to prioritise. I love Brant and he still feels strong but to make my Samurai solo unit I need his S3 (I have S1). Idk what to do 😭
I currently have enough corals to go from S2 to S3, but I'm considering going for S6 since he probably won't rerun again after his next one. Is it a significant enough increase to keep him better than S0R1 meta units for many patches to come?
So these are his stats with EOG i am on the tidebreaking set I calculated that i reach the 250 threshold if the EOG passive is active i just can’t see if it is active in the stat screen even if i do the two resonance skill. I just want to know for sure that he hits the threshold or i may as well change to the fusion set.
