Overview

  • ATK buffer
  • Healer

Iansan is an Electro support who boosts the ATK of whoever is on the field. Her Elemental Burst summons the Kinetic Energy Scale, which follows the active character and grants ATK based on Iansan's own ATK, with a stronger version once she holds 42 or more Nightsoul points. The Scale refills those points as the active character moves, and a passive makes her heal the active character when a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst.

The size of her buff comes from her ATK, so stack ATK once she has enough Energy Recharge to use the burst every rotation. She fits best with Natlan teammates who move a lot and trigger Nightsoul Bursts, and her Electro particles suit Electro and Overload teams.

Weapons

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

  1. Engulfing Lightning ★★★★★

    Its passive turns her Energy Recharge into more ATK, which means a bigger buff and a reliable burst at the same time.

  2. Calamity Queller ★★★★★

    Very high base ATK. After she uses her skill its ATK bonus builds up, and it doubles while she is off the field, which is where she spends most of her time.

  3. Favonius Lance ★★★★

    Extra energy for her and the team. A good pick if the whole team struggles with burst uptime.

  4. Tamayuratei no Ohanashi ★★★★

    Energy Recharge plus an ATK bonus after her skill. Use the skill before the burst to make the most of it.

  5. "The Catch" ★★★★

    Obtained through fishing. The Energy Recharge stat is the useful part.

Artifact sets

  1. Noblesse Oblige 4-piece

    Adds a party ATK buff on top of her own, as long as no one else is wearing it.

  2. Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City 4-piece

    The two-piece gives her energy when teammates trigger Nightsoul Bursts, and the four-piece buffs the elements involved when she triggers a reaction.

  3. The Exile 4-piece

    A cheap option that also helps the team's energy.

Teams

  • Varesa Overload

    An Electro and Pyro only team, so Chevreuse can lower enemy RES and boost ATK. Iansan's Scale adds even more ATK to Varesa's attacks.

  • Natlan Burning

    Mavuika and Kinich keep Nightsoul Bursts coming, which triggers Iansan's healing, and her ATK buff helps every on-field hit.

  • Chasca team

    Chasca and Ororon both draw on Nightsoul, and Chasca's constant movement keeps Iansan's Scale charged.

Tips

  • Keep her at 42 Nightsoul points or more for the stronger buff. Moving around with your active character refills her points through the Scale.
  • Her buff scales with her own ATK, so ATK% on all three main slots is normal for her, as long as her burst is ready each rotation.
  • Her healing needs a teammate to trigger a Nightsoul Burst, so outside Natlan teams do not rely on her to keep the party alive.

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