Your build plan

For Qingxiao, compare Glint of Clouds while keeping the recommended CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG · Aero DMG · ATK% ≥ Aero DMG setup fixed. A weapon or set change is easier to judge when you do not also change the team and skill timing.

Equipment options

12 options

Start with equipment you can actually obtain. These are alternative recommendations, not pieces to equip together. Refinement, set size and team restrictions change the result.

Team examples

A lineup is a starting point: check that each teammate is available and that your team can repeat its resource cycle. Replacing a unit also changes buff timing and defensive coverage.

Test your setup

Balance critical rate with critical damage. A large damage number is less useful when critical hits are inconsistent; evaluate the complete setup rather than a single item.

Choose one option, run the same encounter twice, and change one variable. Record whether the next rotation starts on time and whether the team survives without losing its damage window.
