Diluc Character Overview & Evaluation
Highest Burst DPS of All Characters
Diluc's biggest strength is his phenomenal burst damage. His use of Claymores also allows him to break an opponent's guard easily, particularly with the use of his melee attack + Elemental Skill combo!
Artifacts Can Buff Him Up Even Further
By equipping Artifact sets with useful bonuses, such as the Crimson Witch of Flames, Berserker, and Gladiator's Finale, you can boost his damage even more. Increasing his Crit rate and Pyro damage will cause him to deal absolutely massive damage, so we highly recommend you do so immediately.
Elemental Burst Wipes The Floor With Enemies
Diluc's Elemental Burst ability summons creatures that deal massive frontal AoE pyro damage. This ability's range is quite big and the damage keeps going as long as the summoned birds are out on the field, making this excellent for taking out groups of enemies.
