Seele Stats

Should You Pull for Seele?

Seele is one of the best DPS characters in the game. She deals a lot of single-target damage, but she's also a semi-AoE damage dealer because of her Talent which lets her take an extra turn when she kills an enemy. If you need a Hunt character that excels in single-target fights, you can pull for Seele.

Seele Best Builds

Quantum Main DPS Build

This Seele build boosts her overall damage and allows her to ignore a percentage of the enemy's DEF when dealing damage. Because of Seele's very high base Speed stat, we recommend using ATK% over a SPD Main Stat for her feet Relic piece.

Recommended Stat Values

Stat	Recommended Value
CRIT Rate	70% or above
CRIT DMG	150% or above
ATK	2600 or above
SPD	115+

Seele wants the usual stats for a DPS which are ATK, CRIT Rate, and CRIT DMG. As usual, the ideal 1:2 Ratio for CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG is recommended. As for ATK, having 2600 or higher is enough out of combat.

Having 115 SPD is great for Seele since with her Skill's SPD boost, this allows her to hit 143 SPD in combat which is enough to give her two turns in the first and third cycle. Higher SPD is even better, but try to hit SPD Breakpoints.

Seele Best Teams

Seele F2P Team (Free-to-Play)

Main DPS	Support	Tank	Healer
Seele	Asta	Trailblazer (Fire)	Natasha

This F2P (Free to Play) Team for Seele focuses on buffing and keeping her alive. Asta provides Speed and ATK% buff for Seele while the Fire Trailblazer acts at the tank to draw away aggro from Seele.

Natasha is here to keep the Fire Trailblazer alive so they can keep tanking or remove debuffs on the team.

Seele Hypercarry Team

Main DPS	Support	Support	Utility
Seele	Sunday	Tingyun	Fu Xuan

Funnel all SP and offensive buffs into Seele for consecutive extra turns of massive burst damage before the full turn cycle completes.

Seele Mono-Quantum Team

Main DPS	Support	Support	Utility
Seele	Sparkle	Silver Wolf	Fu Xuan

This team requires Silver Wolf to ignore the elemental weakness of enemies. Silver Wolf will have no problem implanting a Quantum weakness on any enemy. If the enemy is already weak to Quantum, Silver Wolf can be replaced with another Harmony unit or a Sub-DPS.

Sparkle can advance Seele's turn and provide DMG buffs while Fu Xuan is there to protect the party and give out CRIT Rate buffs to strengthen Seele.

Seele Best Relics and Ornaments

All Recommended Relics and Ornaments

Relics	Rating & Merits
Genius of Brilliant Stars x4	★★★★★ - Best Genius of Brilliant Stars is the best 4pc. Relic set for Seele since it can increase her Quantum DMG and ignore the DEF of enemies weak to Quantum.
Genius of Brilliant Stars x2 Musketeer of Wild Wheat x2	★★★★☆ - 2nd Best Seele's temporary Relic set while you've yet to complete her best 4pc. Relic set.
Ornaments	Merits
Rutilant Arena	★★★★★ - Best Best Ornament for increasing Seele's DPS since a big chunk of it comes from her Skill DMG. Requires Seele to have a 70% CRIT Rate to unlock the effect.
Firmament Frontline Glamoth	★★★★☆ - Great This is Seele's best Ornament if you have her at E2. It's not worth it to sacrifice ATK% Boots or CRIT Substats to reach the 160 SPD requirement if your Seele is below E2.
Space Sealing Station	★★★☆☆ - Good Great Ornament for increasing Seele's damage without any hard requirements to unlock its effect.

Relic List & Guide

Seele's Best Light Cones

All Recommended Light Cones

Light Cone	Why We Recommend It
In the Night	★★★★★ - Best In the Night is best for Seele since she can easily reach the SPD requirement thanks to her Skill's SPD buff to get the Basic ATK, Skill, and Ultimate CRIT DMG buffs. It also provides her a CRIT Rate boost which helps her attack crit.
Cruising in the Stellar Sea	★★★★☆ - Great Cruising in the Stellar Sea is a great Light Cone for Seele since it increases her CRIT Rate and provides an ATK boost whenever she defeats an enemy.
Sleep Like the Dead	★★★★☆ - Great Sleep Like the Dead is a great 5-Star Light Cone option for Seele since it boosts her CRIT DMG and boosts her CRIT Rate if her Skill or Basic ATK doesn't crit.
Swordplay	★★★☆☆ - Good Swordplay is a good Light Cone for Seele since it gives her a stacking DMG boost as long as she keeps attacking a single enemy target. This can easily ramp up thanks to her Skill and extra turns. It also works well against bosses.
Only Silence Remains	★★★☆☆ - Good Only Silence Remains is also a good option for Seele since it increases her ATK and gives her CRIT Rate whenever there are two or less enemies in battle.
River Flows in Spring	★★★☆☆ - Good River Flows in Spring is a good 4-Star Light Cone for Seele if you don't have other options since it increases her SPD and DMG as long as she does not get hit.

Seele's Gameplay Guide

Get Extra Turns with Resurgence

Seele's main mechanic is called Resurgence, which allows her to gain an extra turn after knocking out an enemy. This makes Seele, despite being a Hunt character, a great damage dealer who can defeat multiple enemies when done correctly.

Double Resurgence Trick

If there are multiple enemies and you can take out three of them as Seele, you can double your Resurgence and get two extra turns in the process. This allows Seele to deal a bunch of DMG while restoring a lot of energy for her Ultimate.

This Double Resurgence trick requires Seele to have her Ultimate ready to use!

	How to Double Resurgence
1	Defeat the enemy using a Basic Attack or Skill then activate Seele's Ultimate before the turn ends.
2	Use Seele's Ultimate to take out another enemy.
3	Defeat a third enemy using Basic Attack or Skill.

Surprise Attack with Technique

In the overworld, Seele can use her Technique to become undetected by enemies. When Seele attacks an enemy in the Stealth state, she'll automatically enter Resurgence at the start of the fight.
