Q & A

What is Gon’s optimal equipment setup in terms of artifacts?

Gon’s optimal artifact setup is a 5-piece Arrow set. His most beneficial set effect comes from a 2-piece Arrow damage bonus and a 5-piece Arrow attack increase. Alternatively, a 5-piece Lingering Tunes set can be used if you have strong pieces, offering additional attack percent and outro skill damage increase.

How should I prioritize Gon’s main stats for optimal performance?

For Gon’s main stats, aim for a balanced distribution with a focus on attack percent. If you have access to 3-cost attack percent pieces, you can substitute them, but make sure you don’t prioritize them too highly over Arrow-related stats. A solid approach is having around 1.9k attack for a 4-star weapon and 2.2k attack for a 5-star weapon.

What is the best weapon for Gon?

Gon’s best weapon is Verdant Summit, his signature weapon. It provides a significant boost to crit damage, damage bonus, and heavy attack damage bonus. For free-to-play users, Lustrous Razer is a solid alternative, offering high attack percent, energy regeneration, and increased alt damage. Other viable weapons include Waning Red Shift and Helios Cleaver.

What is the best team composition for Gon?

The most effective team for Gon typically includes Mory as the main support character due to their strong synergy, providing a heavy attack damage bonus. A third slot can be filled by any generic buffer or healer, such as Sh Keeper or Verina. This setup enhances Gon’s damage output and supports team-wide performance.

How does Gon’s alt work in battle?

Gon’s alt, when activated, transforms him into V Ching L mode, where a dragon swirls around him, grouping enemies. He gains increased interruption resistance and his basic attacks become heavy attacks. The dragon also performs coordinated attacks with other party members, further boosting Gon’s overall damage.

What are Gon’s inherent abilities and how do they affect gameplay?

Gon’s A1 ability provides a 10% attack buff for 15 seconds after casting his intro skill, which pairs well with Arrow damage buffs. His A4 ability grants him a crit damage boost when hitting enemies, with no conditions attached. These abilities enhance his overall DPS significantly.

Which of Gon’s skills should I prioritize leveling up?

Prioritize leveling up Gon’s alt and Forte circuits as they are the core of his damage output, especially the alt, which scales his heavy attacks. His skill is also valuable for extra damage but should not take precedence over his alt. His basics and intro skill are less important to level.

What is Gon’s main source of damage in his kit?

Gon’s main source of damage comes from his alt, which boosts his heavy attacks. His intro skill also contributes to energy generation and resolve stacking, but the alt is the focal point of his damage output, especially when used in conjunction with his sequences.

How do Gon’s sequences affect his damage?

Gon’s sequences are highly beneficial for boosting his damage. His S1 increases the number of heavy attacks during his alt and decreases the resolve stack requirement. S2 provides high attack percent buffs, while S4 increases his outro skill’s power, making it an essential sequence for maximizing damage output.

What makes Gon one of the best AOE DPS characters in the game?

Gon’s ability to deal massive AOE damage comes from his strong alt, which scales heavily with his heavy attack stats. His sequences and support from characters like Mory amplify this damage, making him one of the best at clearing large groups of enemies. His straightforward playstyle and reliable damage output make him highly effective in AOE scenarios.
