Anaxa, a 5-star Wind Erudition character, excels in delivering powerful area-of-effect (AoE) damage through his unique ability to apply multiple elemental weaknesses to enemies. His combat style focuses on “Bounce” attacks, making him a formidable asset against both single and multiple foes.​

Core Playstyle

Weakness Application: Anaxa’s Ultimate applies all seven elemental weaknesses to all enemies for one turn. His Talent, “Tetrad Wisdom Reigns Thrice,” adds a random weakness to targets with each attack, prioritizing those they don’t already have.

Enhanced Damage Against Debuffed Enemies: When enemies possess at least five different weaknesses, Anaxa’s Talent inflicts the “Exposed Nature” state, increasing his damage dealt to these targets by 60%. This effect also grants him an additional Skill use without consuming Skill Points when attacking such enemies.

AoE Damage Capabilities: Anaxa’s Skill deals Wind damage to a primary target and then bounces to random enemies, effectively handling multiple foes. His Ultimate delivers significant AoE Wind damage, making him a formidable presence against groups.

Best Build

Light Cones

Life Should Be Cast to Flames (5★): Anaxa’s signature Light Cone increases his Critical Rate by 18%, regenerates 10 Energy at the start of each turn, and boosts damage dealt to enemies with implanted weaknesses by 60%. Additionally, it reduces enemy DEF by 12% for two turns when Anaxa attacks. ​

Into the Unreachable Veil (5★): Increases CRIT Rate by 12%. When the wearer uses their Ultimate, it boosts Skill and Ultimate damage by 60% for three turns. If the Ultimate consumed 140 or more Energy, it recovers 1 Skill Point. ​

The Great Cosmic Enterprise (4★): Increases ATK by 8%. For every different Weakness Type an enemy has, increases damage dealt by 4%, up to a maximum of 7 types

Relic Set(s)

Eagle of Twilight Line (4-piece): Increases Wind DMG by 10%. After using the Ultimate, the wearer’s action is advanced forward by 25%, allowing for quicker subsequent turns.

Planar Ornaments

Rutilant Arena: Increases CRIT Rate and boosts Skill damage, making it ideal for maximizing Anaxa’s primary damage output. ​

Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm: Enhances CRIT Rate when there’s an Erudition character in the team, suitable for dual DPS setups.

Team Compositions

Hypercarry Setup

• Anaxa, Sunday, Robin, Huohuo

Why it works:
This team is built to maximize Anaxa’s uptime and damage output.

• Sunday applies party-wide damage buffs and Weakness Implant synergy.
• Robin boosts team action speed and gives Anaxa more turns to trigger his bounce Skill.
• Huohuo provides top-tier sustain while restoring energy so Anaxa can use his Ultimate more often.

Dual DPS Setup

• Anaxa, Herta, Tribbie, Lingsha

Why it works:
This team is all about widespread AoE destruction and synergy with characters that benefit from multi-hit and debuffed enemies.

• Herta works well when enemies are below HP thresholds—ideal for cleanup.
• Tribbie boosts everyone’s damage with RES PEN and supports Anaxa’s elemental flexibility.
• Lingsha keeps the team healthy and recharges energy fast.

Whether you’re clearing Forgotten Hall or pushing into the Simulated Universe, Anaxa brings a unique blend of strategic debuffs and satisfying AoE destruction. With the right build and team to support him, he can turn even the toughest multi-wave battles into a highlight reel.
