After the character's Elemental Skill hits an opponent, their ATK will be increased by 20% for 8s. After the character takes DMG, their ATK will be increased by 20% for 8s. The 2 aforementioned effects can be triggered even when the character is not on the field. Additionally, when not protected by a shield, the character's Max HP will be increased by 32%.

Limited 5★ — R1 already unlocks the kit. R5 is a large passive jump but an expensive vertical investment; only refine if this is a signature you play every abyss.

Eula #2
Eula
Raiden Shogun
Rosaria
Zhongli

Eula is often used in Physical-centric teams using characters such as Raiden Shogun or Fischl and some Cryo units to focus on Superconduct's buffs. Alternatively, Eula can be used in Cryo-centric teams mainly using Escoffier who is half-carrying with their impressive personal damage alongside Cryo RES Shred.

Plunge Eula

Eula #2
Eula
Xianyun
Bennett
Furina

As a claymore character, Eula is a great option for plunge teams using Xianyun. Xianyun helps to generate fanfare for Furina who provides massive buffs. If this is the team you plan to use exclusively, it would be worth changing artifact sets to the Long Night's Oath set.
