Pan Yinhu's Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
General Gameplay is easy to learn and play.- All of Pan Yinhu's Mindscapes make his kit more effective or efficient.
- Best-in-Slot is straightforward, as building ATK is easy.
Weaknesses
Difficult to deal many EX Specials without extra Energy Regen.- Does not provide much for non-Rupture squads, or if his Additional Ability is not active.
- Building too much ATK is wasteful, and scales poorly in DMG calculations.
Pan Yinhu's Core Passives
For a brief period when Pan Yinhu's EX Special Attack: Mountainous Pulse Strike hits an enemy and triggers Quick Assist, the next Agent entering through a Quick Assist or Chain Attack will gain the Meridian Flow effect. This effect provides a Sheer Force boost equal to 18% of Pan Yinhu's initial ATK and lasts for 25s. The Sheer Force provided by this effect cannot exceed 540 points.
When another character in your squad is a Rupture character or shares the same Faction:
When Pan Yinhu hits an enemy with Special Attack: Touch of Death, the enemy suffers the Depleted Qi effect, increasing DMG from all units against the target by 20%. Each hit of Special Attack: Touch of Death inflicts a 10s Depleted Qi effect. This effect does not stack, but repeated hits on the same enemy will extend the duration.
