Should you pull Bailu?

Bailu is the game's original pure healer — full-team heals plus a free auto-revive make her a rock-solid safety net for newer players.

But she buffs no damage and grants no shields, so if you already own Huohuo, Lingsha, or Aventurine you can comfortably skip her. She's a standard-banner 5-star, so never hard-pull for her.

Pros
  • Strongest raw healing among pure healers, plus a wipe-saving revive
  • Easy to gear — only wants HP and SPD, no CRIT/EHR
  • Slots into almost any team that just needs one sustain
Cons
  • Offers no damage buffs and no shields
  • Outclassed on utility by hybrid sustains (Aventurine/Lingsha/Huohuo)
  • No toughness break, so she lags in Apocalyptic Shadow
How to play

Open with her Skill to blanket the team in 'Invigoration' (heal-over-time + one-time revive). After that, mostly Basic Attack to build energy and only re-Skill when someone dips low.

Fire her Ultimate for the big team heal whenever danger spikes, and keep Skill Points free for your DPS.

Eidolons
How far to invest, which milestones matter

E0 (nhân vật cầu thường trú, rất khó nạp cung; E1/E2 tăng nhẹ hồi máu & giải khống, không bắt buộc) — E0 does the full job. As a standard-banner unit, stacking eidolons is impractical and not worth farming. E1 cuts her Ultimate cost and E2 adds heal-on-damage — nice bonuses, never required.

E1
Ambrosial Aqua★★☆☆☆
If the target ally's current HP is equal to their Max HP when Invigoration ends, regenerates 8 extra Energy for this target.
Only grants 8 extra Energy when the target is at full HP as Invigoration ends, a minor and conditional effect.
E2
Sylphic Slumber★★★☆☆
After using her Ultimate, Bailu's Outgoing Healing increases by an additional 15% for 2 turn(s).
After using her Ultimate, Outgoing Healing increases by 15% for 2 turns, a decent but time-limited healing buff.
E3
Omniscient Opulence★★☆☆☆
Skill Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15. Talent Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15.
Simply raises Skill and Talent levels, pure utility with no real power spike.
E4
Evil Excision★★★★★
Every healing provided by the Skill makes the recipient deal 10% more DMG for 2 turn(s). This effect can stack up to 3 time(s).
Every heal from her Skill grants the target 10% more DMG for 2 turns, stacking up to 3 times for 30%, turning Bailu into a strong team-wide damage buffer.
E5
Waning Worries★★☆☆☆
Ultimate Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15. Basic ATK Lv. +1, up to a maximum of Lv. 10.
Simply raises Ultimate and Basic ATK levels, pure utility with no real power spike.
E6
Drooling Drop of Draconic Divinity★★★★☆
Bailu can heal allies who received a killing blow 1 more time(s) in a single battle.
Lets Bailu save one more ally from a killing blow within the same battle, meaningfully boosting team survivability in hard content.

Skills & Traces
What to level first — tap each skill for details
Skill Leveling Priority
Ultimate ★★★★★ The Ultimate heals the whole team and applies Invigoration, the core anti-death mechanic Bailu's kit revolves around, so it should be leveled early for maximum healing value.
Talent ★★★★★ The Talent provides repeated healing to Invigorated allies and a free revive-prevention heal on a killing blow, both scaling with level, making it a top priority.
Skill ★★★☆☆ The Skill delivers targeted single-ally healing (plus extra random heals) scaling with Max HP%, useful but secondary to the Ultimate and Talent.
Basic ATK ★☆☆☆☆ The Basic ATK only deals minor damage and has nothing to do with Bailu's healer/support role, so it is always the lowest leveling priority.
Trace priority: A6 > A4 > A2 Eidolon priority: E2 = E4 > E6 > E1 > E3 = E5

How to read this build page

Every character build page has these parts: recommended Light Cone/Relic sets and stat table, a Trace/skill leveling order, Eidolon milestones worth considering, and a reference SPD threshold. Read them in that order — gear tells you "what to use", Traces tell you "what to level first", Eidolon tells you "is it worth pulling dupes", SPD tells you "how fast you need to be to keep the rotation on time". The section below explains how to read each part and applies the same way to every character on the site — check the exact numbers in the table above this section, since community sources sometimes differ by a few points.

Why the Light Cone and Relic picks make sense

Most characters have a "signature" Light Cone built for their exact role, plus a few cheaper substitutes from the standard banner or easy-to-get 3-4★ cones. Missing the signature isn't a dead end — most characters keep most of their power with a well-matched substitute, typically losing somewhere between a few percent and roughly a fifth of total damage depending on the setup, per most public comparisons.

  • Relic sets (2pc+2pc or 4pc) are picked for the set effect that fits that character's role (single-target DPS, AoE, shield/healing support, Break damage, and so on).
  • Main stats per slot (Body/Feet/Sphere/Rope) and substats follow a priority that changes by role: DPS roles usually chase CRIT Rate/CRIT DMG before ATK%; Break-focused roles prioritize Break Effect; support/healing roles often value Effect Hit/RES or Outgoing Healing over pure CRIT.

These weights differ per character and can shift slightly between ranking sources — follow the exact priority table above rather than applying one formula to every role.

Trace/skill leveling order by role (a general guideline, not a fixed rule)

There's no single order that's correct for every character, and community sources sometimes disagree depending on the team the character is used in — but the general pattern by role is:

  • DPS: level whichever skill (Skill or Ultimate) carries most of the damage for that character first, with Basic ATK usually last if it isn't the main damage source.
  • Support/Buffer: prioritize Traces that boost buff strength or the skill that applies the effect over Basic ATK, since this role's value comes from lifting the team rather than personal damage.
  • Healer/Shielder: prioritize the main healing or shield skill first, since that is the reason the team runs this character.
  • Break/CC: prioritize whichever skill contributes the most Toughness Damage, since the Break/Weakness Break window is where the team dumps damage.

Major Traces unlock at fixed ascension levels in-game, not by choice — but which one to level first (when resources are limited) should follow the role priority above. Since the exact order can differ between ranking sources, check the specific recommendation in the table above for this character.

Eidolons: how far E0 gets you, and which milestone is worth considering

General rule: most characters at E0 (no duplicates) already handle most content, even 5-star characters. Eidolons are a duplicate-fueled upgrade system — higher levels cost more resources for a smaller power gain, and the actual gain varies a lot per character (some barely change role at E0, others shift how they're played at a specific level). The milestones most often cited by the community tend to sit at E1, E2, or E6 depending on the character — but none of these are required to clear the game's content. Check the Eidolon section in the table above for this character's specific milestone and gain; if sources disagree on how to rate a milestone, trust the in-game effect description over a pre-set percentage number.

How to think about SPD breakpoints

SPD (Speed) controls how often a character acts in the turn order — higher SPD means denser actions, and for some roles (especially support/healing that need to buff or heal before the team gets hit) hitting the right SPD "breakpoint" matters more than the raw SPD number. Values like 101 or 134 SPD are often cited as community-common breakpoints (letting a character act again before or after a specific point in certain team setups) — this is crowd-verified action-gauge math, not an official fixed number the game states for every situation. The right breakpoint also depends on the team and allies' SPD, so treat the SPD suggestion in the table above as a starting point to adjust from, not a mandatory target.
