Release2.1

Aventurine is an Imaginary Preservation shielder whose whole kit scales with DEF. His Skill shields the entire team with stackable Fortified Wager, every hit his allies take charges Blind Bet, and at 7 points he unleashes a DEF-based Follow-Up ATK that refreshes everyone's shields. Very SP-positive, resistant to Crowd Control and with a CRIT DMG debuff on his Ultimate, he remains a premium sustain for Follow-Up, Elation and Archer teams.

Teams

Recommended teams

Silver Wolf LV.999 Elation

His most used team right now: his shields and CRIT DMG buffs protect the top Elation core without costing any Skill Points.

Archer

His SP-positive Basic ATKs fuel Archer's Skill spam while Rin Tohsaka and Sparkle buff him.

Follow-Up ATK

His home turf: every Follow-Up ATK from Feixiao charges Blind Bet through Bingo!, and Robin boosts his own Follow-Up ATKs.

Guide

How to play

How he works

  • Cornerstone Deluxe (Skill). Gives all allies a Fortified Wager shield worth 24% of his DEF + 320 (3 turns). Recasting it stacks the shield up to 200% of a single cast.
  • Shot Loaded Right (Talent). Each time an ally with Fortified Wager is attacked, he gains 1 Blind Bet (and 1 more when he is hit himself). At 7 points he launches a 7-hit Follow-Up ATK based on his DEF. Allies with Fortified Wager also get +50% Effect RES, and he can resist Crowd Control once every 2 turns.
  • Roulette Shark (Ultimate, 110 Energy). Gains 1–7 Blind Bet at random and inflicts Unnerved on one enemy: every ally hitting it deals +15% CRIT DMG.
  • Traces. Leverage (A2) turns every 100 DEF above 1,600 into +2% CRIT Rate (max +48% at 4,000 DEF), Hot Hand (A4) shields the team at the start of battle, and Bingo! (A6) gives him Blind Bet whenever a shielded ally uses a Follow-Up ATK, while his own Follow-Up ATK adds extra shields.

Rotation

  1. Use his Technique before combat for a team-wide DEF buff; Hot Hand already shields everyone.
  2. Alternate Skill and Basic ATK: he doesn't need to shield every turn, so spend his turns on Basic ATKs whenever the shields are healthy.
  3. Use his Ultimate on the boss for Unnerved and a burst of Blind Bet.

Tips

  • Build DEF first (up to 4,000), then CRIT: his Follow-Up ATKs and Ultimate deal respectable damage.
  • He struggles against enemies that only hit single targets other than him, since that charges Blind Bet slowly.
  • With Trend of the Universal Market, every enemy attack on him can Burn them — a common trick to charge Acheron's Slashed Dream.

Strengths

  • Excellent, consistent team-wide shields
  • Strong team resistance to Crowd Control and debuffs
  • Very SP-positive and flexible
  • Huge Toughness damage from his Ultimate and Follow-Up ATK
  • Best-in-slot sustain for Follow-Up ATK teams

Weaknesses

  • His Ultimate debuff only hits one target
  • Modest damage and offensive utility
  • Relies on frequent enemy AoE attacks (or ally Follow-Up ATKs) to refresh his shields
  • Weaker against enemies that focus other allies with single-target hits

Notable dupes · Eidolon

E1
Big upgrade

The best stopping point: +20% CRIT DMG for shielded allies, and his Ultimate also shields the whole team.

E2
Solid upgrade

His Basic ATK lowers the target's All-Type RES by 12% for 3 turns, which also counts as a debuff for Acheron.

E6
Solid upgrade

+50% DMG per shielded teammate (up to +150%): only matters for damage-focused builds.
