Zibai

Geo Sword Tier SS Main DPS
Reflects patch 6.7 (2026-07-06) — the meta store re-ranks every patch, never edited by hand.
Is Zibai worth building?

Zibai is the strongest Geo main DPS built around the Lunar-Crystallize reaction, and she gets absurdly strong once Illuga and Columbina join her team. Her signature Lightbearing Moonshard is worth chasing, but Uraku Misugiri or the craftable Flute of Ezpitzal still perform well without it. The 4pc Night of the Sky's Unveiling set is essentially mandatory — farm a CRIT circlet plus DEF% sands and goblet first since her damage scales entirely off DEF. If your Crystallize team isn't complete yet, Husk of Opulent Dreams is a fine stopgap.

Zibai's talents

Golden Blade's Petaled Touch
Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 rapid strikes.

Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes.

Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Heaven and Earth Made Manifest
Summoning a shadow of her former powers, she switches to the Lunar Phase Shift mode.
In this mode, Zibai's Normal Attacks and Charged Attacks will deal Geo DMG that cannot be overridden by other infusions, and she can accrue special Phase Shift Radiance through different methods. Zibai can consume Phase Shift Radiance to unleash the special Elemental Skill Spirit Steed's Stride.

Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam
While in the Lunar Phase Shift mode, when Zibai performs Normal Attacks, the fourth attack will deal an additional instance of Geo DMG, which is considered Lunar-Crystallize Reaction DMG.
Tri-Sphere Eminence
Zibai operates the Jadelight Canopy, dealing two instances of Geo DMG, with the second damage instance being considered Lunar-Crystallize Reaction DMG.
When cast, if Zibai is in the Lunar Phase Shift, the duration of the current Lunar Phase Shift will extend by an additional 1.7s.
The Selenic Adeptus Descends
When casting the Elemental Skill Heaven and Earth Made Manifest, or when nearby party members trigger Moondrift Harmony, Zibai gains the Selenic Descent effect for 4s: The DMG dealt by the 2nd hit of Spirit Steed's Stride is increased by 60% of Zibai's DEF.
Layered Peaks Pierce the Clouds
Other Geo party members increase Zibai's DEF by 15% each. Hydro party members increase her Elemental Mastery by 60 each.
Moonsign Benediction: The Coursing Sun and Moon
When a party member triggers a Hydro Crystallize reaction, it will be converted into the Lunar-Crystallize reaction, with every 100 DEF that Zibai has increasing Lunar-Crystallize's Base DMG by 0.7%, up to a maximum of 14%.

Additionally, when Zibai is in the party, the party's Moonsign will increase by 1 level.
Moonlit Flower Forest
At night (18:00 – 06:00), when not in combat, restore 1 Elemental Energy to Zibai every 2 seconds.
This effect does not work in Domains, Trounce Domains, or the Spiral Abyss.

Combat Rotation

  1. Open with Elemental Skill "Heaven and Earth Made Manifest" to switch into Lunar Phase Shift, infusing Normal/Charged Attacks with Geo.
  2. Chain Normal Attacks to build up Phase Shift Radiance; the 4th hit automatically triggers bonus Geo DMG as a Lunar-Crystallize reaction.
  3. Once enough Radiance is stored, unleash "Spirit Steed's Stride" (2 Geo hits) for a quick burst within the stance.
  4. At 60 Energy, cast Elemental Burst "Tri-Sphere Eminence" (15s CD) for two consecutive Geo hits.
  5. Casting the Burst while still in Lunar Phase Shift extends the stance by an extra 1.7s — time it to stretch your combo window.
  6. Prioritize DEF% on artifacts, since both Lunar-Crystallize DMG and the Selenic Descent buff scale off Zibai's DEF.
  7. Pair with a Hydro character to keep triggering Lunar-Crystallize reactions and gain bonus Elemental Mastery from her passive.
  8. Loop Skill → 4-hit Normal Attack combo → Burst on cooldown, staying in Lunar Phase Shift as much as possible to sustain DPS.
