Bailu is a Lightning Abundance character commonly used for healer, revive, damage reduction. The recommended build focuses on the part of the kit used most often while keeping the team rotation reliable.

Use Passerby of Wandering Cloud as the primary Relic set and Fleet of the Ageless as the Planar Ornament. Recommended main stats are Outgoing Healing, SPD, HP%, Energy Regen. Secure important Speed, Effect Hit Rate or Break Effect requirements first when the kit needs them, then improve the character's main scaling and offensive or defensive substats.

Light Cones and alternatives

Time Waits for No One is the premium Light Cone because its passive is designed around Bailu's core mechanics. The build remains functional without it. provide practical alternatives when their passives stay active in the selected team. Strong Relic stats can be more valuable than forcing a theoretical equipment upgrade with poor synergy.

Recommended teams

  • Premium team: Jingliu, Bronya, Pela, Bailu. This formation keeps Bailu in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.
  • Alternative team: Argenti, Tingyun, Hanya, Bailu. This formation keeps Bailu in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.
  • Accessible team: Serval, Asta, Pela, Bailu. This formation keeps Bailu in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.

  • High priority: Singing Among Clouds
  • Highest priority: Felicitous Thunderleap
  • High priority: Gourdful of Elixir
