Build Notes

Replacing Haniel with Hathor completes the Cosmos+Anima+Lakshana top-trio around Jiuyuan, enabling Remora (Zero+Hathor), Blossom (Zero+Nanally), and the Charge triple-cycle on every rotation. Hathor's Delay Warning grants +10% Crit Rate on all Remora targets, directly amplifying Nanally's 10-Pistil salvos. The combination of More Than Passionate (10 Pistils) and Seize the Moment (6-Bud cap) delivers maximum Blossom throughput, while Zero's Insta-Cycle prevents any rotation from stalling.
