Qiqi Strengths and Weaknesses

Vs. Bosses Vs. Mobs Support Exploration

 Strengths

• Easy-to-use melee attack sets her apart.

• Frost attacks can create Elemental Reactions to freeze enemies'
movement.
• Skills are easy to use together with other characters.
• Small stature makes it hard for some enemy attacks to hit her.

Weaknesses

• Skills have a long cooldown.

• She takes longer to climb and sprint to places compared to other
characters due to her small stature.

How to Use Qiqi

Useful for Setting Up Elemental Reactions

Qiqi's Elemental Skill ”Adeptus Art: Herald of Frost” has the unique ability to Cryo deal damage over
time. After the skill has been activated, she will unleash a ball dealing Cryo damage to the
surrounding area automatically. This attack continues even if you switch characters, making it
extremely easy to set up Elemental Reactions with other characters' attacks.
In particular, characters with the Hydro Element can easily inflict the Frozen status effect under
these conditions, preventing enemies from attacking and providing leeway when surrounded by foes.
Can Heal Other Characters with Elemental Burst

Like Jean, Qiqi is also a combat Healer. Both Qiqi's Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst Heal the
party and scale off of her ATK stat. Qiqi can also grant HP Regeneration to the party from her
Elemental Skill. Her Elemental Burst attaches a Fortune-Preserving Talisman to an enemy, and
once a character attacks that enemy, they will recover HP. Any character can take advantage of this
ability making Qiqi a great Co-op character as well.

Has Skills advantageous for Item collection

Simply having Qiqi in your party will cause the items on the minimap to be marked, making them far
more easy to collect. Materials found across the map are essential for Character Ascension, so be
sure to use Qiqi to take advantage of this ability.
