Zhu Yuan
Who is Zhu Yuan?
Zhu Yuan is an S-rank Ether Attack agent from CIST. A no-nonsense detective with a tactical pistol, she is the premier Ether DPS in ZZZ. Her Shotshell mechanic accumulates special ammo through skill casts and unleashes massive Ether damage in burst windows. She functions as an on-field carry and generates resources for her kit through the CIST faction chemistry with Nicole Demara.

Additional Ability with Nicole Demara gives Zhu Yuan bonus Shotshell generation and Nicole bonus Ether DMG.
Large-burst Ether damage that generates Shotshell ammo and resets her rotation.
High ceiling during Shotshell-burst windows; lower sustained damage between bursts.

📊 副属性优先级
👥 最佳阵容
CIST: Zhu Yuan + Nicole Demara + Qingyi (Nicole groups + DEF shreds, Qingyi Stuns — full CIST trio synergy)
Budget: Zhu Yuan + Nicole Demara + Anby Demara (fully A-rank/standard team)
零氪建议
Nicole Demara (A-rank, free) is her ideal partner and unlocks the CIST faction bonus — no limited pulls needed.
Anby Demara (A-rank standard) fills the Stun slot without limited investment.
Her signature W-Engine is meaningful but not required for good performance.
常见问题
Is the CIST faction bonus important?
Yes — pairing with Nicole gives Zhu Yuan bonus Shotshell generation (accelerating burst windows) and Nicole bonus Ether DMG. This is one of the strongest faction synergies in ZZZ.
Is Zhu Yuan still relevant in patch 2.x?
She remains the best Ether DPS for players who own her. Her standard-team accessibility (Nicole + Anby with no limited pulls) keeps her relevant for early and mid-game players.
Does Zhu Yuan need the Qingyi Stun?
Qingyi maximises her Stun windows for Chain Attack damage. Budget Anby Demara (A-rank) is fully viable.
