Overview

  • Off-field Dendro DPS
  • Burning specialist

Emilie places a Lumidouce Case that keeps firing Dendro shots at enemies. When enemies are Burning, they release Scents that the Case collects to level up, firing more shots and, with her passive, a large Cleardew Cologne blast. Her Elemental Burst summons a stronger Level 3 Case that rains Dendro down for its duration. She also deals extra damage to Burning enemies based on her ATK, and her Case gives the whole party strong Pyro RES against Burning damage.

Pair her with a Pyro character who keeps enemies Burning. Give her ATK, Dendro DMG Bonus and crits. She plays almost entirely off the field: place the Case, burst when ready, and swap back to your main damage dealer.

Weapons

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

  1. Lumidouce Elegy ★★★★★

    Her signature polearm. ATK, a damage bonus against Burning enemies and Energy refunds, all working while she is off the field.

  2. Staff of Homa ★★★★★

    A big CRIT DMG stat. The HP-based ATK boost is small for her, but the crit value carries it.

  3. Primordial Jade Winged-Spear ★★★★★

    High base ATK and CRIT Rate. Its stacking bonus is less reliable for a character who spends little time on the field.

  4. Deathmatch ★★★★

    A Battle Pass 4-star with high CRIT Rate and an ATK bonus with no conditions to manage.

  5. Missive Windspear ★★★★

    A 4-star with an ATK% secondary stat. Its ATK and Elemental Mastery bonus needs her to trigger a reaction herself, so treat the secondary stat as the main reason to use it.

Artifact sets

  1. Unfinished Reverie 4-piece

    Her best set. A large damage bonus that stays at full as long as an enemy is Burning, which is the whole point of her teams.

  2. Deepwood Memories 4-piece

    Lowers enemies' Dendro RES for the team. Use it if no one else in the party carries it.

  3. Unfinished Reverie + Deepwood Memories 2-piece each

    ATK and Dendro DMG Bonus while you farm either 4-piece set.

Teams

  • Kinich Burning

    Bennett keeps enemies Burning and adds ATK, Kazuha groups enemies and boosts damage, and Kinich hits them all.

  • Durin Burning

    Durin's White Flame dragon lowers Pyro and Dendro RES when Burning happens, so Emilie and Kinich both benefit.

  • Budget Burning

    Xiangling and Thoma keep Pyro on enemies, Sucrose groups them, and Thoma's shield plus Emilie's Pyro RES against Burning keep the team safe.

Tips

  • Her Case levels up only from Scents made by Burning enemies. Without Burning, much of her damage disappears.
  • Her passive makes the team highly resistant to Burning damage while the Case is out, so you can fight inside the flames.
  • Using her burst stows away an existing Case and redeploys it afterwards, so you do not lose the field by bursting.

Other character guides recommend Emilie as a teammate in these teams.

Talents

Normal Attack Shadow-Hunting Spear (Custom)
Normal Attack Performs up to 4 consecutive spear strikes. Charged Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to perform an upward slash. Plunging Attack Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Elemental Skill Fragrance Extraction
Creates a Lumidouce Case that deals AoE Dendro DMG. Lumidouce Case ·Fires Puffs of Puredew at nearby opponents at intervals, dealing Dendro DMG. ·When nearby opponents are affected by Burning, they will give off Scents at intervals, and 1 Scent can be created this way every 2s. The Lumidouce Case collects nearby Scents. The Lumidouce Case will level up after gathering 2 of them, after which it will fire 1 extra Puff of Puredew when firing, while the DMG dealt by and DMG AoE of the above attack will also be increased. ·1 Lumidouce Case created by Emilie herself can exist at any one time. The Case starts at Level 1 and can go up to Level 2. If the Case does not collect any Scents for 8s while it is on the field, it will go back to Level 1. Arkhe: Pneuma At intervals, after Emilie creates a Lumidouce Case this way, a Spiritbreath Thorn will descend in front of her and pierce her opponent, dealing Pneuma-aligned Dendro DMG.
Elemental Burst Aromatic Explication
Guiding the fragrances collected within the Case, Emilie converts them into pure Dendro energy, creating a Level 3 Lumidouce Case and stowing existing Cases away. While it exists, the Level 3 Lumidouce Case will not gather nearby Scents, but it will continuously cause Scented Dew to descend, attacking opponents within range and dealing Dendro DMG. During this time, 1 drop of Scented Dew will descend every 0.3 seconds, and 1 opponent can become the target every 0.7 seconds. When the duration ends, a Level 1 Lumidouce Case will be recreated. If a Lumidouce Case was stowed away when using Aromatic Explication, then the Case that was stowed away will be deployed instead, and its duration will be reset. While Aromatic Explication is active, the Elemental Skill "Fragrance Extraction" will not create a Lumidouce Case.
Passive talent Lingering Fragrance
Each time it collects 2 Scents, the Level 2 Lumidouce Case will consume Scents and release Cleardew Cologne that deals AoE Dendro DMG equal to 600% of Emilie's ATK to opponents. This DMG is not considered Elemental Skill DMG.
Passive talent Rectification
Emilie deals increased DMG to Burning opponents based on her ATK, with every 1,000 ATK increasing DMG dealt by 15%. The maximum DMG bonus that can be gained this way is 36%.
Passive talent Headspace Capture
When the Lumidouce Case created by Emilie is on the field, all party members gain 85% Pyro RES against Burning DMG.

C1 Light Fragrance Leaching

This effect can be triggered once every 2.9s.

The Abiding Fragrance effect will be removed after 4 Scents are created this way or after its duration expires. Abiding Fragrance can be triggered once every 12s.
