Phase 1: Phainon

The first half of 3.4 features Phainon, a 5★ Physical character following the Path of Destruction. Leaks suggest he’ll be a core DPS for Physical teams.

Unique Mechanics:

Phainon’s Ultimate consumes a special resource (max 12 stacks). At certain thresholds, it activates, granting him a second form.

He gains stacks when targeted by allies’ single-target skills (1 stack) or using his own Basic/Skill (2 stacks). Traces provide additional sources.

Upon activation, Phainon enters Boundary mode: Allies vanish, and he gains extra turns with a new skill set (Q/E/X buttons). The X skill is enhanced, allowing adaptive attacks based on enemy types.

When extra turns end, he exits Boundary, deals AoE damage, and reverts to his original form.

New Relic Set – "Captain Over Cursed Waves":

2-Piece: +16% CRIT DMG.

4-Piece: Gains 1 stack of [Support] (max 3) when targeted by allies’ skills. Each stack boosts ATK by 16% for 1 turn upon using Ultimate. This synergizes perfectly with Phainon’s kit.
