Is Dr. Ratio Good?

Dr. Ratio is one of the most powerful units in terms of dealing single-target DMG. His strong Follow-up attacks are most effective against Bosses and can become a lot stronger if enemies are affected by debuffs.

Dr. Ratio is worth building if you need a strong boss-killer who specializes in Follow-up Attacks!

Dr. Ratio's Best Builds

Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves will increase Dr. Ratio's Follow-up Attack DMG and CRIT DMG as long as allies use Follow-up attacks.

Dr. Ratio's Best Teams

Dr. Ratio F2P Team (Free to Play)

DPS	Support	Support	Healer
Dr. Ratio	March 7th (Imaginary)	Asta	Natasha

This free-to-play team is your typical Hypercarry setup where Dr. Ratio is the Main DPS. March 7th can provide additional buffs and DMG while Asta can buff his SPD and has a chance to Burn the enemy.

Dr. Ratio Generalist Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Sustain
Dr. Ratio	Topaz	Robin	Aventurine
Dr. Ratio	Topaz	Silver Wolf	Luocha

Dr. Ratio's best teams typically consist of a buffer and a debuffer, with the latter being especially important for Dr. Ratio's Follow-up Attacks.

Topaz has amazing synergy with Dr. Ratio as she can provide additional DMG and increase his Follow-up Attack DMG.

If you have Aventurine, you can use Robin as your second Support unit to increase overall Follow-up attack DMG. Otherwise, use Silver Wolf to implant a lot of debuffs on the enemy.

Dr. Ratio Mono-Imaginary Team

DPS	Support	Support	Shielder
Dr. Ratio	March 7th (Imaginary)	Silver Wolf	Aventurine

This Dr. Ratio team comp is viable in certain content where the enemy is weak to Quantum but not to Imaginary. Silver Wolf is a must-have for this team so she can implant an Imaginary Weakness on an enemy.

If the enemy is already weak to Imaginary, you can replace Silver Wolf with another debuffer.

Skill Deals Single Target DMG and Debuffs Enemies

Dr. Ratio's Skill deals Imaginary DMG to one enemy and debuffs them. His Skill also has great synergy with his Talent, since it allows him to do a Follow-Up Attack at a certain chance after using his Skill.

Talent Allows Him to Use Follow-Up Attack on Debuffed Enemies

Dr. Ratio has a 40% base chance of launching a Follow-Up attack on a single target after using his Skill. For each debuff the target enemy has, the fixed chance of launching the Follow-up attack can increase up to 100%. This means that Dr. Ratio will work well with Nihility characters!

If an enemy is defeated right before Dr. Ratio launches a Follow-up attack on said target, he will attack a random enemy instead.

Ultimate Helps Launch Additional Follow-Ups

Dr. Ratio's Ultimate deals Imaginary DMG to a single enemy target and applies Wiseman's Folly. When all other allies attack targets affected with Wiseman's Folly, Dr. Ratio will launch a Follow-up attack on them.

Technique Taunts Enemies and Reduces Their SPD
