Shock Immunity Excels in Specific Battles
Guan Yu is one of the few heroes with Shock Immunity, making him effective in the Light Particle Dungeon and Castle Rush Eileene. Since his firepower and support capabilities are higher than Chloe's, using Guan Yu is generally recommended.
Also a Buffer for Castle Rush and Advent Expedition
His passive, which boosts Physical Damage Dealt and Critical Damage Dealt for the back row, is excellent. He can also serve as a Physical DPS buffer in Castle Rush and Advent Expedition where physical attacks are effective. He also has an Ignore Defense single-target attack, making him a viable option to pair with Shane in Castle Rush Kris.
Shows True Potential with Skill Enhancement and Transcendence
| Power Up | Additional Effect |
|---|---|
| Skill Enhancement | - Inflicts Unable to Recover on Basic Attacks - Grants All Attack Reduction |
| 2 Transcendence | - Increases Critical Damage Dealt for the back row |
| 6 Transcendence | - 100% Crit Rate for Skill 1 |
Guan Yu is a late-bloomer character who shows his true potential through Skill Enhancement and Transcendence. Since his utility as a supporter expands, prioritizing 2 Transcendence and the enhancement of Skill 2 is recommended.
Available in the 3rd Advent Expedition Event
You can obtain up to 3 copies of Guan Yu in the 3rd Advent Expedition Event. Since the challenge becomes available after clearing the 1st/2nd events where Bai Jiao and Xiao Qiao can be obtained, complete those first if the event has not appeared.

Best Build for Guan Yu
Recommended Equipment Sets
| Set | Reason for Recommendation |
|---|---|
Gatekeeper | - Increases durability to support allies for longer durations - Best choice for specialized support |
Avenger | - Can take advantage of 100% Crit Rate with Damage Boost - Best for farming at 6 Transcendence or higher |
Assassin | - Crit Rate UP contributes most to firepower increase until reaching 6 Transcendence - Best choice for below 6 Transcendence |
Guan Yu's recommended equipment changes depending on whether you want him to also act as an attacker or specialize in support. We recommend Gatekeeper for support builds, Avenger for firepower focus at 6 Transcendence or higher, and Assassin for firepower focus below 6 Transcendence.
Gatekeeper Set (Support Type)
| Set | Main Stat Candidates | Substat Candidates |
|---|---|---|
Gatekeeper | [Weapon] - HP (%) [Armor] - Block Rate - Damage Taken Reduction | - HP (%) - Block Rate - Defense (%) - HP - Defense |
If you want to use him as a support specialist for Shock Immunity and firepower buffs, increase his durability with the Gatekeeper set. Durability-related options such as Block Rate and HP are recommended.
Gatekeeper Set and Best HeroesAvenger Set (6 Trans.+ - Damage Type)
| Set | Main Stat Candidates | Substat Candidates |
|---|---|---|
Avenger | [Weapon] - Crit Damage [Armor] - All Attack (%) | - Crit Damage - Weakness Hit Chance - All Attack (%) - All Attack - Block Rate |
If you want to use him as a single-target attacker with Ignore Defense in boss content, the Avenger set is recommended. Since Skill 1's Crit Rate becomes 100% at 6 Transcendence, Crit Rate options become unnecessary.
Avenger Set and Best HeroesAssassin Set (Below 6 Trans. - Damage Type)
| Set | Main Stat Candidates | Substat Candidates |
|---|---|---|
Assassin | [Weapon] - Crit Rate - Crit Damage [Armor] - All Attack (%) | - Crit Rate - All Attack (%) - Crit Damage - Weakness Hit Chance - Block Rate |
Since his Crit Rate is not 100% below 6 Transcendence, aim for 100% with the Assassin set when using him as an attacker.
