Da Pan is a Physical DPS that can apply Vulnerability through his kit. When an enemy has 4 Vulnerability stacks, these stacks can be consumed with Da Pan's Combo Skill to deal damage to the enemy.
Da Pan's trump card is his Combo Skill and Ultimate combo with the Salty or Mild Talent. Every enemy hit by Da Pan's Ultimate lets him gain Prep Ingredients stacks, which he can consume to lower his Combo Skill cooldown. This makes Da Pan a strong DPS when facing multiple enemies, but he is less effective when up against a single target.
| HP | ATK | STR | AGI | INT | WIL | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lv. 1 | 500 | 30 | 24 | 9 | 10 | 10 |
Da Pan's best builds focus on increasing his personal damage. Da Pan's endgame build takes advantage of applying Vulnerability to increase Physical DMG dealt, while his early game build increases his ATK and Ultimate DMG.

Da Pan was the Administrative Support of Hongshan Academy of Sciences and is currently assigned to Endfield Industries as a Specialist Liaison. Despite the complicated names of his roles, Da Pan is essentially the go-to individual for cooking and household maintenance.
Out of all the professional tasks he is responsible for, Da Pan primarily enjoys cooking and deems it his crowning achievement, as he is responsible for testing native ingredients and combining different cuisines. With the help of cookery, Da Pan can reliably build rapport with any organization!
However, despite his focus on what others deem as menial, do not underestimate Da Pan's intelligence, as he is lauded as a major contributor to science.
This achievement is cemented by a special bottle that Da Pan carries all the time.
