Mirror Dungeon tier

Burn and Rupture damage dealer

A Slash damage dealer with huge raw output who heals and can revive himself through Burn. His Battleblood Instinct makes him faster and harder hitting every turn, and his skill 3 hits all targets. He is best in Burn and Heishou teams, and he can also work as a solo generalist.

Worth pulling?
good pull
Uptie
Uptie IV is not essential, his kit works well without it. Invest only if he is a main damage dealer on your Burn team.

How to play

Build Battleblood Instinct by clashing and landing base skill hits, and let missing HP raise your offense and defense. Use the S1 and S2 to stack Burn and Rupture on the target, then fire Bloodflame Massacre as the finisher. At 20 Battleblood Instinct the skill 3 upgrades into the stronger Rooster's Rampaging Blades, which scales with Burn and heals you. More Grub for Us works as a clashable counter that feeds Burn Count.

  • +Great damage output with an unfocused skill 3
  • +Burn positive and can heal or revive himself
  • +Works alone, no identity synergy needed
  • −Uses up Rupture Count, weak in Rupture teams
  • −Only one E.G.O synergy, Holiday

FAQ

Is Heishou Pack You Branch Adept Heathcliff good?
Yes. His raw damage is excellent and he sustains himself with Burn healing. The one catch is that he is a poor fit for pure Rupture teams.
What team is You Branch Heathcliff best in?
Burn teams and Heishou teams. He works as a generalist too, since he needs no identity synergy, but he eats Rupture Count and is a weak pick in Rupture-focused teams.
