| Phase 2 Date | February 3, 2026 |
Zibai will be released as part of the Version 6.3 Luna IV's Phase 2 update on February 3, 2026!
Version 6.3 - Release Date and Details
Zibai's main playstyle is centered around Lunar-Crystallize as a whole. She primarily uses her Elemental Skill to infuse her attacks with Geo and accrue Phase Shift Radiance in order to unleash a Special Skill.
Her abilities all scale with DEF, so it is imperative to build her with as much DEF as possible to increase her damage overall as the Main DPS of the team.

| Sample Teams | |
Zibai is a character that scales only with DEF, meaning ATK stats will see less value on her. Naturally, you'd want to stack as much DEF as you can to effectively increase her damage.
It is much more recommended to focus on other stats over Energy Recharge as she is more Skill oriented and her Burst, while is a good source of damage, pales in comparison to the damage that her Skill dishes out.
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
|---|---|---|
| Elemental Skill | Normal Attack | Elemental Burst |
Zibai's whole playstyle revolves around her Elemental Skill and its enhanced state, making it her main source of frontloaded damage, therefore making it the highest priority talent to level.
Her Normal Attack should then be maxed out as a lot of the time she will be performing attacks while preparing for her special Elemental Skill. Lastly, her Elemental Burst can be leveled last as it is only used as extra damage.
Night of the Sky's Unveiling is by far her best artifact set to use, and no other sets come close in terms of performance. The 4-pc set bonus is easily activated thanks to her being a Lunar-Crystallized DPS, and naturally wanting a Moonsign unit on her teams.
A very distant second would be Husk of Opulent Dreams because of its DEF scaling, but the Geo DMG is quite redundant for Lunar-Crystallize. You can also opt for a 2-pc DEF and 2-pc Elemental Mastery pairing, but you won’t find much value compared to the alternative.
Having said that, we highly recommend using Night of the Sky’s Unveiling on Zibai due to how synergistic it is with her playstyle.
| Artifact | Artifact Bonuses | |
|---|---|---|
| 1st |
|
2-PC: Elemental Mastery +80 4-PC: When nearby party members trigger Lunar Reactions, if the equipping character is on the field, gain the Gleaming Moon: Intent effect for 4s: Increases CRIT Rate by 15%/30% when the party's Moonsign is Nascent/Ascendant Gleam. All party members' Lunar Reaction DMG is increased by 10% for each different Gleaming Moon effect that party members have. Effects from Gleaming Moon cannot stack. |
| 2nd |
|
2-PC: DEF +30% 4-PC: A character equipped with this Artifact set will obtain the Curiosity effect in the following conditions: When on the field, the character gains 1 stack after hitting an opponent with a Geo attack, triggering a maximum of once every 0.3s. When off the field, the character gains 1 stack every 3s. Curiosity can stack up to 4 times, each providing 6% DEF and a 6% Geo DMG Bonus. When 6 seconds pass without gaining a Curiosity stack, 1 stack is lost. |
| 3rd |

2-PC: Increases Elemental Mastery by 80. |

| Stat Priority | ||
|---|---|---|
| Substats: CRIT Rate>CRIT DMG> DEF%> Elemental Mastery> Energy Recharge |
||
| Summary: • Her damage primarily scales with DEF, so its imperative to stack as much of it to increase her damage overall. • CRIT Rate will find more value over CRIT DMG because Zibai has an abundance of the latter due to her ascension stat. That being said, a 1:2 ratio is still ideal to have a balanced CRIT value. • Elemental Mastery will increase her DMG more than with Energy Recharge as her Elemental Burst finds less value compared to her Elemental Skill. It's recommended to just Burst every other rotation. • Geo DMG% on Goblet is not good as Lunar Reactions do not scale with DMG% bonuses. |

List of Artifacts and Set Bonuses
Lightbearing Moonshard is her best-in-slot weapon due to its Lunar-Crystallize and DEF increases, resulting in the highest augment to her damage.
Uraku Misugiri is a very good alternative as it also complements her playstyle by increasing Normal Attack DMG and Elemental Skill DMG, further increasing when Geo DMG is dealt, with an additional DEF increase on top of it.
F2P options are Harbinger of Dawn for CRIT value that potentially have 100% uptime thanks to Crystallize Shield, and Flute of Ezpitzal, which increases DEF when using Elemental Skill.

Zibai shines best in teams that are dedicated to Lunar-Crystallize and with Moonsign Characters to activate her Ascendant Gleam. Columbina, Illuga, or Aino are great options to pair her with to complement her playstyle and satisfy the aforementioned caveats.
It is technically still possible to play her without another Moonsign character, but her damage will be significantly lower as she’ll find difficulty accruing Phase Shift Radiance. Therefore, it is not recommended to play her outside of Moonsign teams.
| Character | Explanation |

Support Illuga is ahead of the curve when it comes to supporting Zibai, as he is tailor-made for her by significantly increasing Lunar-Crystallize DMG and further increasing it when the team consists only of Hydro or Geo characters. |
|
|
Sub-DPS/Support As the premier Lunar Reaction buffer, it is no surprise that Columbina finds herself in Zibai's team. Significantly increased Lunar DMG, and as a Hydro character, allows Lunar-Crystallize. She is by far the best Hydro slot for Zibai in team building. |

Sub-DPS Chiori is appreciative of Zibai's Lunar-Crystallize as she can easily create another Tamoto with the Moondrifts. She provides off-field Geo DMG in tandem with Zibai's rotation. |

Lunar-Crystallize is her best-case scenario in team building, as her entire playstyle centers around it. Having a Moonsign character along is an added benefit that allows her to have access to her Ascendant Gleam, dealing an additional Lunar-Crystallize DMG on her Normal Attack string.
Illuga and/or Columbina are her premier supports as they can easily increase the Lunar-Crystallize DMG that Zibai unleashes during her rotation.

Not many options are going on with the F2P teams, but nonetheless, they're still viable. As per the standard, you’d want to pair Zibai with Hydro and Geo units in order to trigger her Lunar-Reaction.
Aino and Jahoda are great Moonsign characters to pair her with, but be mindful of Jahoda's gameplay as she takes a lot of field time to function.
Zibai's main method of dealing damage are via her Normal Attacks and her Elemental Skill's Special State, allowing her to deal frequent instances of Geo and Lunar-Crystallize damage.
Lunar-Crystallize Reaction Guide
Zibai's presence allows the team to trigger Lunar-Crystallize, giving her Elemental Skill both Geo and Lunar-Crystallize damage instances, as well as being buffed when using her normal Elemental Skill or triggering Moondrift Harmony.
When in this Special State, Zibai's Normal Attacks and Lunar-Crystallize procs allow her to accumulate energy for a special gauge, with the gauge filling up over time on its own but sped up by the mentioned actions.
When the gauge reaches an adequate point, Zibai can deal a single instance of large Geo and Lunar-Crystallize damage via her "Spirit Steed's Stride" Special Elemental Skill, which expends the charge in the Special State bar.
Zibai's Elemental Burst seems to be a frontloaded attack that deals AoE Geo DMG in an area, and seems to function as a Geo Nuke.
This is likely used to start or end damage rotations depending on its availability.
Due to Zibai's connection to the Moon, one of her passive talents allows her to regenerate Elemental Energy passively during the night, ensuring that you will almost always have your Elemental Burst at the ready.

Errr... in the premium team section, there should be a note saying that Xilonen only works as a mono geo support at c2+, because her geo res shred doesn't stay active when switching out at c1 and below. Also it's funny that Kachina isn't listed as a support option since she buffs def at c4 and she can use Cinder City.
