Danjin is a 4-star Havoc Sword Sub-DPS who trades HP for massive damage. Her high-risk, high-reward playstyle makes her fun but requires careful team building with strong healing support.

Her unique mechanic revolves around Havoc Burst, which sets her apart as a versatile sub-dps. Mastering this mechanic is key to maximizing her potential in combat.

Rotation Guide

  2. Swap to sub-DPS: Apply elemental reactions and generate Concerto.
  3. Swap to Danjin (Intro): Apply Havoc Frazzle and gain initial buffs.
  4. Build resources: Use Normal Attacks and Skills to build energy/buffs.
  5. Cast Liberation: Unleash burst damage at optimal timing.
  6. Maintain DPS: Continue attacking during buff windows.
  7. Swap out: Trigger Outro skill, switch to support to restart cycle.

Tip: Always time your Liberation with full buffs for maximum damage output. Maintain Havoc Frazzle on enemies for consistent damage.
