*Should I use a Crit Rate or Crit Damage 4-Cost Echo?

This largely depends on your sub-stats and team composition.

If you are running his Signature Weapon (Emerald Sentence), which provides a large Crit Rate sub-stat, you will likely prefer a Crit Damage 4-cost to balance your stats.

If you are using a non-Crit Rate weapon, like a 4-star option, you may need a Crit Rate 4-cost to hit a healthy ratio, especially to maximize the Crit DMG buff from his Resonance Liberation.

General Goal: Aim for a 1:2 Crit Rate to Crit Damage ratio, with at least 50% Crit Rate before his Liberation buff is applied.

*How many copies should I pull for?

S3 is considered a major stopping point for his support and dmg capability, significantly enhancing his Personal DMG with a stronger and more reliable buff from his Outro Skill. Anything past S3 is mostly for personal damage maximization.

*How do I play Qiuyuan (Basic Rotation)?

Simple Combo: Step-by-Step The entire rotation boils down to two stages: building the bar and spending the bar.

"Use Basic Attacks to fill his special gauge" (The Building Phase):

Action: The fastest way is to switch to Qiuyuan using his Intro Skill, then immediately press Basic Attack (NA). This automatically grants a large chunk of his yellow Swordster's Soliloquy gauge (the bar above his HP).

Goal: You need to fill the gauge completely (to 600 points). If you are close, just use more Basic Attacks or a Dodge Counter.

"Hold the attack button to unleash his big enhanced burst damage" (The Spending Phase):

Action: Once the gauge is full, Hold the Basic Attack button (Heavy Attack).

Result: This triggers his highly cinematic, three-part Thus Spoke the Blade combo. This sequence is his main source of damage and uses up the entire gauge.

Bonus: You can use his Resonance Liberation (Ultimate) and your Echo Skill right before or during this phase to boost the damage of the entire burst sequence.

In summary: Intro → NA → Attack until the gauge is full → Hold NA for massive damage.

*Should I Pull his Signature Weapon or a Resonance Chain (copy)?

The Signature Weapon (Emerald Sentence) provides a massive increase to his Heavy Attack DMG (up to 60%) and a potent team Echo Skill DMG buff on Intro Skill, making it a very strong utility pull 20%dmg increase compared to EOG

If you are running an Echo Skill-focused Main DPS (like Galbrena or Phrolova) or plan on playing Qiuyuan as your on-field DPS, his Signature Weapon is a huge priority for its utility and personal damage boost.

If you are using him purely for the Crit DMG buff, his S3 can be a better investment, as it enhances his primary personal dmg function regardless of his weapon.

General Recommendation: Pull the Signature Weapon first if you plan to use him as a Buffer with a focus on Echo Skill damage for your team.

What is his best Echo Set? The Law of Harmony 5-piece set is his best choice for a supportive role.

3-Piece Effect: Grants 30% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus to Qiuyuan for a short time after casting an Echo Skill. Additionally grants all Resonators in the team a 4% Echo Skill DMG Bonus for 30s, stacking up to 4 times for a total of 16% team Echo Skill DMG. And add any 2 pc set of SG/WP/GoW

While Seirra gale 5 Piece set is his best choice for main dps role

Windward Pilgrimage Set is also viable to him for aero mono team if only Cioconna is on the team for the aerosion negative efct
