At a glance

Suoming is a 5-star Electro Sword character who deals Basic Attack DMG and helps an incoming teammate deal more Electro damage. She can spend time on the field attacking or switch out after gaining Unison to activate her Outro.

Her attacks build Delusion, which unlocks stronger attacks in different states. The choice between using Unison for a switch and spending it on her own attacks shapes her turn.

Guide

How the kit works

Switch Suoming in with Furled Canopy: Flash Rift while she is in Awakened Mind to enter Deep Mind and clear her Delusion. If she starts in Awakened Mind without an Intro, build 800 Delusion and cast Furled Canopy: Sealed Delusion (forte) to enter Deep Mind instead.

At 800 Delusion in Deep Mind, cast Unfurled Canopy: Unforsaken Mind (forte) to pull nearby enemies in. Follow it with Umbral Canopy: Engraved Heart (forte) using Normal Attack or Resonance Skill. Hold the input to continue attacking. Suoming cannot move or switch during the action, but is immune to damage and interruption for part of it. She returns to Awakened Mind when it ends.

Umbral Canopy: Miasma Lock is available in Deep Mind. It grants 200 Delusion and Unison for 5 seconds. Switching with Unison triggers her Outro and the incoming character's Intro. Under the conditions of Miasma Lock, the active character's damage can also trigger up to six Thunder Crest Coordinated Attacks over 8 seconds, at most one per second.

The other option comes from Sunken Seal, Forged Lock: casting Rift Cleaver with Unison consumes that Unison, Suoming's Unison Boon, 20 Concerto Energy and all her Delusion to grant Seal Master. It raises the multipliers of her Deep Mind basic attacks by 100%, gives each stage 5 extra Concerto Energy on hit and adds 100% Crit. DMG. It lasts 12 seconds or until she switches out, and cannot be gained while Aligned Seals is active.

Build and why

Use five pieces of Heart of Sworn Vigil. Its two-piece effect gives 10% Electro DMG, which suits Suoming's attacks. The provided set effect does not describe the five-piece bonus.

Unspoken Rue is the first weapon choice. It gives ATK and, on gaining Unison, gives the wielder and the team Electro DMG Bonus. Consuming Concerto Energy replaces the team effect with an extra Electro DMG Bonus for the wielder, which fits the Seal Master route.

Red Spring is the next choice: dealing Basic Attack DMG builds its Basic Attack DMG Bonus, and consuming Concerto Energy gives another Basic DMG Bonus. Emerald of Genesis follows, with Energy Regen and ATK gained from casting Resonance Skill. For a 4-star option, consider Lumingloss for its Basic Attack DMG Bonus after Resonance Skill.

For stats, ATK, Crit. Rate and Crit. DMG are worth considering alongside Electro DMG Bonus. Remember that Seal Master already gives Suoming a large amount of Crit. DMG while it is active.

Leveling priority

A suggested leveling order is Bound Obsession, Forged Mind first, then Furled Canopy. The Forte contains the Delusion finishers, while the basic skill covers the attacks used to build Delusion in Deep Mind.

After those, consider Umbral Canopy: Miasma Lock, then Furled Canopy: Rift Cleaver, and finally Furled Canopy: Flash Rift. Liberation contributes damage when Suoming is on the field and Coordinated Attacks after her Outro.

For maximum ascension, gather Shell Credit, LF Howler Core, MF Howler Core, HF Howler Core, FF Howler Core, Forged Empyrean's Sigh and Miasmic Branch. The last two require 46 and 60 respectively.

Skill upgrades also need Shell Credit and the four Howler Core materials, plus Remnant of the Wheel, Broken Wing Polarizer, Monowing Polarizer, Polywing Polarizer and Layered Wing Polarizer.

Resonance Chain nodes worth it

A suggested order for the biggest upgrades is sequence 6, then sequence 2, then sequence 3. Nine Shadows at Her Side (sequence 6) strengthens each Unison Boon stack, raises the stack limit to four and increases Engraved Heart's multiplier. It also adds 200% Crit. DMG while Seal Master is active.

Breaking Thunder, Slaying Evil (sequence 2) gives Suoming 40% Crit. DMG and gives the incoming character Crit. DMG after her Outro, with more per Unison Boon stack. Lone Canopy, Solitary Road (sequence 3) adds a way to gain Unison Boon through a regular Intro and gives Suoming Basic Attack DMG Amplification after Liberation.

Covenant Borne Upon the Heart (sequence 4) is an option for ATK, and Seal Deep, Never Forgotten (sequence 5) raises the Liberation multiplier. You can leave them aside if you are content with the base kit; neither changes how its core rotation works.

Teams

Hsin and Rover: Electro are suggested Electro teammates. An incoming Electro character can use Canopy Rumble: it gives 20% Electro DMG Amplification for 8 seconds or until that character switches out. If the incoming character has Unison Boon, they also gain 25% Resonance Skill DMG Amplification.

Suoming triggers Unison Response when she switches in from an active character with Unison and casts her Intro. This grants one Unison Boon stack for 30 seconds to eligible team members. Only characters who can trigger Unison Response can gain the effect, so check the other characters' kits when planning the rotation. Unison Response does not work in Co-op.

When Suoming casts her Outro with Unison, Sunken Seal, Forged Lock gives her Aligned Seals. If that Outro is within 8 seconds of her Liberation or Engraved Heart, the incoming character also gains Electro DMG Bonus, increased by their Unison Boon stacks. Verina and Shorekeeper are other suggested teammates to consider for the remaining slot.

Common mistakes

Do not cast Furled Canopy: Rift Cleaver with Unison by accident if you want the Unison switch. It spends Unison and clears Delusion for Seal Master instead. The effect also ends early if Suoming gains Unison or Aligned Seals.

Do not wait too long to switch after Umbral Canopy: Miasma Lock: its Unison lasts 5 seconds. Also check the incoming character's Unison Boon before counting on the extra Resonance Skill amplification from Canopy Rumble.

Do not plan to dodge out of Umbral Canopy: Engraved Heart (forte). The action restricts movement and switching, even though it provides damage and interruption immunity for part of its duration. Against a moving target, choose your timing before committing.

Rain-Soaked Covenant gives Suoming 50% Electro DMG Bonus for 15 seconds after her Intro, but switching her out ends it early. Keep that in mind when deciding how long she should stay on the field.
