What it costs to finish this character
Ascension alone: 760 resin (boss drops only) · talents alone: 590 resin.
Talent domain: Ballad, open Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday.
A Crown of Insight is needed for the tenth level of each talent, and crowns are not farmable at any resin price — they come from events.
Materials and mora above are exact, straight from the game’s own tables. The resin figure and the day count divide by an average drop per run, which the game does not publish — they are a community-measured mean, not a promise.

Principle of Purity: As the Light Shifts
Unleash the power of the "Beast" in different ways. Durin can use different Elemental Bursts based on his {LINK#N11230001}Essential Transmutation{/LINK} state.
Principle of Purity: As the Light Shifts
When Durin is in the Confirmation of Purity state, he will use the Elemental Burst Principle of Purity: As the Light Shifts, dealing 3 instances of AoE Pyro DMG to opponents in front, and manifesting his power in the Dragon of White Flame form. The Dragon of White Flame will follow the current active character and attack nearby opponents at intervals, dealing AoE Pyro DMG. This DMG is considered Elemental Burst DMG.
Principle of Darkness: As the Stars Smolder
When Durin is in the Denial of Darkness state, he will use the Elemental Burst Principle of Darkness: As the Stars Smolder, dealing 3 instances of AoE Pyro DMG to opponents in front, and manifesting his power in the Dragon of Dark Decay form. The Dragon of Dark Decay will follow the current active character and periodically attack a single nearby opponent, dealing Pyro DMG. This DMG is considered Elemental Burst DMG.
When Durin is not in a special state as a result of Essential Transmutation, he will use the Elemental Burst Principle of Purity: As the Light Shifts.

Constellations
- C1 · Adamah's Redemption

When an Elemental Burst is used, Cycle of Enlightenment stacks will be refreshed.

Weapons and artifacts
UNSURE This is not a tier list and not community guidance — this product has neither. It is a mechanical shortlist, and the rule is printed so you can check it: Swords of 4★ and above whose secondary stat is one this character’s ascension stat scales with, ordered by base attack at level 90. Weapon passives are not weighed, because a passive is an effect and not a number.

 Absolution | 5★ | 674 | CRIT DMG |

| Set | Two-piece | Four-piece |
|---|---|---|
| Crimson Witch of Flames | Pyro DMG Bonus +15% | Increases Overloaded, Burning, and Burgeon DMG by 40%. Increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%. Using Elemental Skill increases the 2-Piece Set Bonus by 50% of its starting value for 10s. Max 3 stacks. |
To turn this into a real recommendation section, add a build dataset — per character, the weapons and sets a community source actually recommends, with the rotation each assumes. Nothing in the game’s published data contains that judgement, and a ranking invented here would be indistinguishable from a researched one, which is why there is not one.
Teams
To build a team section, add team data. Which characters go together is judgement about rotations, energy and shielding that this product does not receive and will not guess at.
What is published is the reaction chart. Pyro takes part in:
- Vaporize with Hydro
- Melt with Cryo
- Overloaded with Electro
- Burning with Dendro
