Important Notes About Set Bonuses

⚠️ 4-piece + 2-piece combinations are NOT required early on

You can run a full 6-piece (24★) setup first, then transition into mixed 2-piece builds later.

Why?

  • Early game: 2-piece bonuses are weaker
  • 6-piece builds are easier to complete
  • Reaching 24★ passive bonuses provides better early efficiency

Example:

Leviathan III (Follow-Up) is weaker unless your unit relies heavily on normal attacks.

Constantine III provides a strong flat +375% Crit DMG, which is generally stronger early.

⚠️ Downside:

6-piece builds cap your late-game ceiling. Mixed builds scale better once heavily invested.

General D-Cypher Guide

Beowulf
Leviathan

Most Attackers

Beowulf Light 3 and Leviathan are what most attackers use

Odin

Normal Attack DPS

Specific units that rely on normal attacks like Caesar/FateBreaker/Witch NoNo use Odin instead of Leviathan

Tsukiyomi
Amaterasu

Debuffers

Tsuki Light 3/4 and Amaterasu are what most debuffers use. Tsuki other number parts are also usable

Tsukiyomi
Serpent

Buffers/Healers

Tsuki Light 3/4 and Serpent are what buffers/healers use

Emperor
Hela

Tanks

Emperor's Edict and Hela Light 4 are what tanks use most. This set is oriented more on giving your team more survivability in return for a softer front line

Constantine

Constantine Set

Generally trash unless you're using True dmg teams like Johann/Ryujin. Then Beo Light 3 and Constantine works.

But generally if your team has access to Alter Lumi, then Leviathan is better instead

Hela / Tsukiyomi / Beowulf Sets

These sets are not included in character builds above because:

  • They require very high investment
  • You must reach 18★ set bonuses first
  • Each piece must be at least 3★ awakened
  • Their 2-piece bonuses are strong but expensive

Pre-End Game:

Standard D-Cypher sets are more efficient

End Game:

Players transition into Tsukiyomi, Hela, and Beowulf 2-piece replacements

Final Notes

  • ✓ This guide is intended for Pre-End Game optimization
  • ✓ At true End Game: Premium 2-piece sets replace standard builds
  • ✓ Star scaling and awakening stats matter significantly more at endgame
  • ✓ Mixed builds outperform full 24★ setups at high investment
