Overview

  • Pyro burst damage
  • Aimed Shot DPS

Amber is a Pyro archer who joins you at the very start of the game. Her Elemental Skill throws Baron Bunny, who taunts enemies and explodes, and her Elemental Burst rains Pyro arrows over a wide area, with extra CRIT Rate from her passive. Fully charged Aimed Shots deal Pyro damage, and hitting weak points gives her more ATK.

Build her with ATK and crits, and use her mainly for her burst or as a charged shot damage dealer in Melt and Vaporize teams. At Constellation 6 her burst also gives the whole party ATK and Movement SPD.

Weapons

Best first. Every bow on this list links to its page.

  1. Skyward Harp ★★★★★

    CRIT DMG and a chance to deal extra damage on hits. A strong all-round pick.

  2. The Stringless ★★★★

    Elemental Mastery and a bonus to skill and burst damage. Great when she plays as a burst unit in reaction teams.

  3. Prototype Crescent ★★★★

    Craftable. Weak-point Aimed Shots give a big ATK boost, which stacks with her own passive.

  4. Favonius Warbow ★★★★

    Energy Recharge and particles, so her burst comes back sooner. Use it when she is mainly a burst support.

Artifact sets

  1. Crimson Witch of Flames 4-piece

    Pyro DMG Bonus plus stronger Melt and Vaporize. The best fit when she plays for reactions.

  2. Noblesse Oblige 4-piece

    Burst damage for her and ATK for the team. Good when her burst is the main reason she is there.

  3. Crimson Witch of Flames + Gladiator's Finale 2-piece each

    Pyro damage and ATK. A stopgap while farming.

Tips

  • Aim for weak points with fully charged shots to turn on her ATK passive.
  • Throw Baron Bunny first to pull enemy attacks away from you before you aim.
  • Use her burst while enemies are grouped. Its wide area is where most of its damage comes from.
