Who Is Emilie?

Emilie is a limited 5-star Dendro Polearm character from Fontaine, released in Version 4.8 (August 6, 2024). She is a renowned perfumer who uses her Lumidouce lamp to deal sustained off-field Dendro DMG. Her kit revolves around the Burning reaction — her lamp upgrades when enemies are burning, significantly increasing her damage output. She also reduces Burning DMG taken by party members by 85%.

Skill Mechanics and Talent Priority

Normal Attack: Shadow-Hunting Spear

Performs up to 4 consecutive spear strikes.
Not recommended to level up unless C6 (on-field Dendro DPS mode).

Elemental Skill: Fragrance Extraction

Cooldown: 14s. Duration: 22s.

Summons a Lumidouce lamp that fires projectiles at nearby enemies.
Core Mechanic: When enemies are in Burning state, they periodically generate Fragrance. The lamp collects Fragrance:
- At 2 Fragrance collected, lamp upgrades to Level 2 with massively increased DMG and AoE.
- If no Fragrance collected for 8s, lamp downgrades to Level 1.
Duration (22s) far exceeds cooldown (14s) — can achieve permanent uptime.
Does not snapshot buffs.

Elemental Burst: Aromatic Explication

Energy Cost: 60. Cooldown: 13s.

Replaces the current lamp with a temporary Level 3 lamp.
Level 3 lamp fires rapid AoE attacks — Emilie's main source of burst damage.
After Burst ends, the previous lamp is redeployed with refreshed duration.
