Combo Skill-Focused Physical DPS
Da Pan is an Attacker who accumulates up to 4 stacks of the Vulnerable state to unleash a massive damage Combo Skill. He can consistently deal high damage if 4 stacks of Vulnerable are applied quickly, so be sure to include characters with Lift or Knock Down in your team.
Da Pan Strategy Guide
Basic Strategy
- Build Up 4 Stacks of Vulnerable
- Activate the Powerful Combo Skill
Build Up 4 Stacks of Vulnerable

Da Pan's Combo Skill is powerful, but the activation conditions are strict, requiring you to apply 4 stacks of Vulnerable to the enemy. Pair him with characters who can inflict Lift or Knock Down to quickly build up Vulnerable stacks.
Crush and Breach Consume Vulnerable
If you hit an enemy with a skill that inflicts Crush or Breach, your accumulated Vulnerable stacks will reset to 0, delaying the activation of Da Pan's Combo Skill. If you include characters like Endministrator or Pogranichnik in your team, you must be mindful of your skill timing.
Activate the Powerful Combo Skill
Once you have applied 4 stacks of Vulnerable, activate Da Pan's Combo Skill. This attack consumes the 4 stacks to inflict a buffed Crush, dealing extremely high damage. After activating the Combo Skill, the Vulnerable stacks will reset to 0, so you must build them up again to aim for another Combo Skill.
| Tips! | Da Pan's Combo Skill has a somewhat long cooldown. If you apply Vulnerable stacks too quickly while it is on cooldown, you might miss the activation window, so be careful. |
