Lupa just dropped on the Roar of Triumph banner, and she is already rising fast as one of the best Fusion supports in the game. She is not just a sub DPS or buffer – she ramps up team Fusion damage, shreds enemy resistance, and keeps your carries in a nonstop damage loop. If you are pulling for her or already did, here is how to build her right and make her a solid unit in your team.

Banner and Availability

Lupa is featured in Version 2.4 Phase 2, running from July 3 through July 23, 2025, across all servers. Her signature five-star weapon Wildfire Mark is also on rate up in the current Weapon Tide.

What Makes Lupa Unique

Lupa is a Fusion attribute character who excels at setting up the team for massive burst windows. She fits best as a second unit in double Fusion teams, but her support tools work in other comps too. Here is what sets her apart:

• Pack Hunt (Resonance Liberation) gives up to 18 percent team damage bonus when paired with Fusion teammates
• Glory (Outro Skill) buffs the next unit’s Fusion damage and basic attack damage
• Applies up to 9 percent Fusion resistance shred on enemies, helping your carry melt through even tanky bosses
• Her rotations scale off Heavy Attacks and Resonance Skill, letting her do solid sub DPS while supporting

She is also incredibly flexible and smooth to pilot. That makes her valuable in both boss fights and wave-based content.

Echo Set Recommendations

• Best in Slot: Flaming Clawprint
  +15 percent Fusion damage and +20 percent team damage after using Resonance Liberation. This is her perfect match.
• Alternative: Molten Rift
  Offers +30 percent Fusion damage after Liberation, but requires longer field time to maintain. Best if you need her to be more of a damage dealer.

Best Weapons for Lupa

• Wildfire Mark (signature broadblade)
  • Base stats at level 90: +587 attack, +48.6% crit damage
  • Effect: Increases Lupa’s attack by 12% to 24% (scaling with enhancement); after using Intro Skill or Resonance Liberation, it boosts Liberation damage by 24–48% for six seconds. Landing a heavy attack extends the buff and grants your entire team a 24–48% fusion damage bonus for 30 seconds
  • Why it’s best: Perfect synergy with her buffing playstyle because it amplifies both her team utility and her own output
• Lustrous Razor (standard five star broadblade)
  • Base stats at level 90: +587 attack, +36.4% attack
  • Effect: Grants 12.8% energy regen. Each time Resonance Skill is used, increases Resonance Liberation damage by 7%, stacking up to three times (for 12 seconds total).
  • Why it’s strong: Excellent non-signature pick that offers both energy and damage, ideal for Fusion team flow
• Verdant Summit (standard five star broadblade)
  • Base stats: +587 attack, +48.6% crit damage
  • Effect: Every time Intro Skill or Resonance Liberation is cast, boosts heavy attack damage by 24% (stacks up to two times) for 14 seconds
  • Why it works: Great for players favoring heavy attack lines, maintains her heavy attack loop plus team utility

Best Team Comps for Lupa

Lupa shines most when she enables other Fusion characters, but she is not locked into Fusion only comps.

Brant , Changli, and Lupa

This is the most synergistic lineup right now. Brant gives shields and sustain, Changli dishes out Fusion damage, and Lupa enhances their output with both buffs and debuffs.

Lupa, Brant, and Fusion Unit

Simple and effective. Whether it is Encore, Mortefi, or Changli, Lupa makes them better while Brant keeps everyone alive.

Lupa, Brant, and Shorekeeper or Encore

If you want a bulkier setup with more defense or a second Fusion DPS, this variation works great in survival missions or tougher endgame content.

Skill Priority

1. Resonance Liberation: this is the key to her entire kit. Level this first.
2. Outro and Forte Circuit: her Outro is her most consistent team buff. Forte increases her damage uptime.
3. Resonance Skill and Basic Attack: not bad, but lower priority unless you want more personal damage.

How to Play Lupa Effectively

Here is a quick rotation that gets the most out of her:

1. Enter with Intro Skill to start building Forte gauge.
2. Use Resonance Liberation to apply buffs and start the 18 percent team damage bonus.
3. Follow up with Resonance Skill and Heavy Attacks to maintain her buff uptime.
4. Tag out with Outro Skill to give Fusion damage and basic attack buffs to your main carry.
5. Repeat as needed based on cooldowns and energy.

Lupa is at her best when you weave her in and out for fast, sharp bursts of damage and utility.

Final Thoughts

Lupa is more than just a new face on the banner. She is a top tier Fusion enabler, and one of the strongest sub DPS options in the game right now. If you are running Fusion heavy teams or just want a unit who can handle both offense and utility, Lupa is absolutely worth pulling and building.
