Sucrose best team

Sucrose boosts the whole team's Elemental Mastery and Elemental Reaction damage. This makes her a pretty f2p friendly character, who can provide crowd control and DMG boost. Furthermore, due to her nature of being a 4 Star character, it is just a matter of time until you got maxed constellation.

Premium Team: Sucrose + Diluc + Xingqiu + Bennett

  • Diluc is the main DPS.
  • Xingqiu will spread Hydro enabling bigger damage via Vaporize.
  • Bennett buffs Diluc by Pyro resonance while also provide healing.
