Kaveh
Kaveh is a fully free Bloom DPS well worth building if you enjoy running around detonating flowers. His strength is self-sufficiency — he pops his own cores, so teambuilding is easy — but that also means he takes Bloom recoil, so pair him with a Hydro like Xingqiu to both fuel reactions and top him off. Go full Elemental Mastery on circlet, goblet, and sands, with just enough Energy Recharge to Burst. For a weapon, the 4-star Favonius Greatsword is his best, so no 5-star mats required. Cheap, fun, and surprisingly strong in Nilou or pure Bloom teams.

Priority substats: Energy Recharge (đủ ngưỡng) › Elemental Mastery › CRIT Rate (Favonius) / CRIT DMG
E > NA ≈ Q — the Skill drives his detonations, so level it first; Normal Attacks and Burst follow based on your energy needs. Elemental Mastery matters far more than talent levels here.
Teams for Kaveh
Nilou turns regular Dendro Cores into huge Bountiful Bloom damage, Nahida and Xingqiu spread Dendro and Hydro to feed the cores, while Kaveh detonates them.
Kaveh's talents
Schematic Setup
Uses Mehrak to perform up to 4 consecutive attacks.
Charged Attack
Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous slashes.
At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Artistic Ingenuity
Mehrak was created through the modification of ancient technology and may have some other functions apart from mapping work...
Painted Dome
· Increases Kaveh's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attack AoE, and converts his attack DMG to Dendro DMG that cannot be overridden.
· All Dendro Cores created by all your own party members through Bloom and Lunar-Bloom reactions will deal additional DMG when they burst.
· Increases Kaveh's resistance to interruption.
These effects will be canceled once Kaveh leaves the field.
"Every building style includes the architect's unique worldview, and from this angle, one can say that the buildings themselves are coalescences of human memories."
An Architect's Undertaking
A Craftsman's Curious Conceptions
This effect will be canceled when Painted Dome's effects end.
The Art of Budgeting
Kaveh constellations
Within 3s after using Artistic Ingenuity, Kaveh's Dendro RES and Incoming Healing Bonus will be increased by 50% and 25% respectively.
Kaveh's Normal Attack SPD increases by 15% during Painted Dome.
Increases the Level of Painted Dome by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
Dendro Cores created from Bloom and Lunar-Bloom reactions Kaveh triggers will deal 60% more DMG when they burst.
Increases the Level of Artistic Ingenuity by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
When Kaveh's Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks hit opponents during Painted Dome, they will unleash Pairidaeza's Light upon the opponent's position, dealing 61.8% of Kaveh's ATK as AoE Dendro DMG and causing all Dendro Cores within that AoE to burst. This effect can be triggered once every 3s.
