Dance at Sunset Best Characters

All Best Characters

Character Explanation
Yunli Yunli Dance at Sunset is amazing for Yunli since the Light Cone provides her CRIT DMG and the Firedance effect, which boosts her Follow-Up Attack DMG. The aggro increase also favors Yunli's kit and allows her to do more counterattacks.
Clara Clara Clara works similarly to Yunli, so Dance at Sunset can work extremely well on her.

Other Recommended Characters

Recommended Characters
Blade Blade

Dance at Sunset is a great light cone for Destruction characters who use Follow-Up Attacks and those who can benefit from the aggro increase. The Firedance effect can also stack up to two times which boosts Follow-Up Attack DMG even more.

Is Dance at Sunset Worth It?

Amazing for Yunli

Dance at Sunset provides Yunli with CRIT DMG and increases the DMG of her Follow-Up Attacks when she uses her Ultimate. This goes well with her kit since her counterattacks during her Ultimate are much more powerful.

The aggro increase is also great for Yunli since she benefits from getting attacked and it allows her Talent to activate consistently.

Should You Pull?

Dance at Sunset provides DPS characters with a bunch of CRIT DMG and allows them to do increased Follow-Up Attack DMG thanks to the Firedance effect. This is great for characters who use Follow-Up Attacks.

The aggro increase is also a nice bonus if the character wants to get hit like Clara and Blade. But, this Light Cone only excels for characters who use Follow-Up Attacks in their kit or those who benefit from getting attacked.

If your DPS character doesn't use Follow-Up Attacks, other Destruction Light Cones would fit better.
