Wriothesley
Wriothesley is a very strong, comfortable Cryo main DPS who self-heals to stay in his hard-hitting punch stance, so he rarely needs a shield. Cashflow Supervision fits him best, but the 4-star Widsith or Tulaytullah's Remembrance carry him just fine. Go for 4pc Marechaussee Hunter, or Blizzard Strayer if you play Freeze; just keep enough Energy for his Burst. Pair him with Furina and Kazuha and he explodes, add Charlotte for healing to play it safe.

There are some things that even the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide can do little about — for example, complicated paperwork, the trivialities of a supervisor, or even... little kids pasting a whole host of cute but difficult-to-remove stickers on his boxing gloves.
