Lorentz Butterfly — Review & Analysis
Lorentz Butterfly is a 6★ Intellect character who works as a damage amplifier and sub-DPS that scales off her allies' output: Primer Wingbeat adds Steady-State Primordial DMG equal to a share of the Incantation damage allies dealt to the target that turn while stacking Burn. Her passive converts accumulated Afterglow into a team-wide DMG Bonus and Incantation Power buff, and she also feeds Moxie, an extra Action Point and printed Incantation copies. She is a tempo engine built around one strong carry rather than a standalone nuker.
- Her passive turns Afterglow into a team-wide DMG Bonus (up to 15% per 100 points) plus Incantation Power — the fewer party members, the stronger it gets.
- Primer Wingbeat adds Primordial damage scaled off allies' Incantation damage and ignores Attribute bonuses, so it stays consistent against any enemy.
- Her Ultimate prints Incantation copies and grants an extra Action Point, while the passive feeds the whole team Moxie → strong tempo and rotation support.
- Her Intellect Afflatus stands outside the counter cycle, so her personal damage doesn't swing on this axis against any specific enemy type.
- Her value ramps slowly — she needs Afterglow stacks and a strong carry to piggyback on; standalone damage is low.
Level Primer Wingbeat (skill 1) and the Ultimate first, since they are the core of her damage amplification and Incantation-printing loop; then raise the team buff Quantized Criterion. For Psychubes, favor ones boosting Incantation Power / DMG or Crit Rate & Crit DMG so her piggyback damage lands hard; if you run her purely as a buffer for the carry, a support-leaning Psychube also fits. Prioritize keeping Afterglow up to push the team buff toward its cap.

Lorentz Butterfly — Skills & Incantations
Primer Wingbeat
Incantation “Insight II: 1-target attack. Deals 800% Mental DMG. Before attacking, inflicts 3 stacks of 【Burn】 on the target. After hitting the target, deals an additional (DMG dealt by allied incantations to the target this round x6%) 【Static Genesis DMG】, increased by 1% for every 100 points of Lingering Glow, counting up to 600 points (triggers up to 10 times per round).”
Quantized Criterion
Incantation “Insight II: Mass buff. Gains 【The Igniting Wingbeat】 for 3 rounds and grants the same effect to all other 【Lingering Glow】 allies.”
Unpredictable Dynamical System
Ultimate “Insight II: Self buff. Gains 【Continuous Action I】 for 2 rounds. Before casting, selects 1 basic incantation in the Spelldock to print. After casting, prints 4 【Precast Incantation】 duplicates, which are generated and rewritten with 【Fractal Dimension】 at the start of the next round.”
Aperiodic Flow
Incantation “Insight III: When entering battle, gains Moxie +2. At the end of the round, 【Lingering Glow】 allies who did not cast an Ultimate this round gain Moxie +1 (Lorentz Butterfly gains an additional Moxie +1). 【Lingering Glow】 allies' Ultimates do not take up the allied Incantation Draw Limit. All enemies' 【Burn】 stack limits increase by 5. When at least 3 【Lingering Glow】 allies are present, the Burn stack limits additionally increase by 15. When 1/2/3 【Lingering Glow】 allies are present: at the start of the round, for every 100 points of 【Lingering Glow】 (counting up to 600 points), grants DMG Bonus +2.5%/5%/15% and Incantation Might +1%/2%/6% to all allies for 1 round.”

Where to Get
Teams with Lorentz Butterfly
Brume, Lopera and Lorentz Butterfly all carry the Burn tag — stacking Burn from three sources shortens the time-to-kill on a single target far more than one Burn dealer alone. Yenisei rounds the team out with Shield + Heal + Moxie support so the DoT window survives longer. None of the four needs a Euphoria to function.
Teams →
Lorentz Butterfly, Beryl and Marsha all tap into Glow together with Crit — combining it across three kits at once outperforms any single carry doing it alone. Yenisei keeps the line-up alive with Heal so that payoff has time to land.
