Tribbie Overview
Basic infomation
Rarity: 5-star Element: Quantum Path: Harmony
Gameplay
Tribbie is a character excels as a versatile offensive support, amplifying team damage through follow-up attacks, resistance penetration, and HP-scaling abilities.
One of the features of Tribbie gameplay is that she can provide team-wide buffs which are a bit more rare to come by, can greatly increase the team’s damage output, and is able to increase the damage that enemies take when her zone is activated with her ultimate.
Another is that Tribbie can unleash follow-up attacks onto enemies when an ally uses their ultimate (one follow-up attack per ally using their ultimate), can reset trigger count by using Tribbie’s ultimate, and also gains back energy from allies attacking enemies!

Tribbie Priorities
Tribbie Ability Priorities
Tribbie’s abilities should be prioritized based on her role as a hybrid team buffer and damage dealer, and we recommend you the following sequence:
Skill＞Ultimate＞Talent＞Basic attack
- Skill (Where’d the Gifts Go): Max first. Grants allies 24% All-Type Resistance Penetration, significantly boosting team damage output.
- Ultimate (Guess Who Lives Here): Second priority. Prioritize your buff gains and creates a damage zone that increases enemy damage taken by 30% and adds extra Quantum damage per hit.
- Talent (Busy as Tribbie): Increase follow-up damage. Her follow-up attack triggered by ally Ultimates deals AoE Quantum damage (18% Max HP) and resets upon using her Ultimate, making it her core damage.
- Basic Attack (Hundred Rockets): Lowest priority and level up as needed.
Tribbie Trace Priorities
As for Trace Priorities, the suggestive sequence is:
Trace 2＞Trace 3＞Trace1.
- Trace 1: +72% self-damage after follow-up attacks (stacks 3x).
- Trace 2: +9% Max HP based on allies’ HP during Ultimate2.
- Trace 3: Energy regeneration for team synergy.
Tribbie Light Cones
Tribbie’s Light Cones should focus on enhancing her support utility and personal damage, and her Signature Light Cone: If Time Were a Flower is undoubtedly the best choice.
Best-in-Slot
- Signature Light Cone - If Time Were a Flower (5★):
Boosts Crit DMG by 36%, restores 12 Energy on hit, and buffs team Crit DMG.
This weapon is highly suitable for low-speed Tribbie and is also effective for single-target energy regeneration. It is less dependent on mob-heavy environments and AoE teammates for energy recovery.
Alternatives
- But the Battle Isn’t Over (5★):
Increases Tribbie’s energy regeneration rates and regenerates 1 skill point when Tribbie uses her ultimate on an ally.
- Dance! Dance! Dance! (4★):
For speed builds; also advances team’s action order.
- Memories of the Past (4★):
Energy regeneration and Break Effect boost for frequent Ultimate uptime.
- Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds (4★):
Randomly buffs ATK%, Energy Regen, or DMG% for allies.
When replacing Light Cones, the top priority is the Dance! Dance! Dance!. Tribbie can ensure one ultimate per turn, thereby advancing the entire team's action gauge. Secondary options would be Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds or Memories of the Past, though each has pros and cons. For instance, Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds has randomized effects that might require repeated attempts to optimize damage output.

Tribbie Relics, Ornaments & Stats
Relics Sets
- Best choice: Poet of Mourning Collapse (4-Piece)
It provides a 10% Quantum damage bonus and increases Crit Rate by 32% when used with low speed.
Although it reduces Tribbie's speed, this drawback does not have a significant impact.
- Alternative: Genius of Brilliant Stars (4-Piece)
It can provide an effect that ignores 10% of the enemy's defense when dealing damage to the enemy or when the enemy has a Quantum weakness.
- Alternative: Genius of Brilliant Stars (4-Piece)
It helps to grant a 25% action speed boost after Tribbie uses her ultimate.
Ornaments
- Top choice - Bone Collection’s Serene Demesne
It’s a new Planar Ornament set that can provide 28% increased Crit DMG if the wearer’s HP ≥5,000.
Since Tribbie's HP scales over time, she can easily meet this standard.
- Alternative - Sigonia: Boosts Crit DMG.
- Alternative - Fleet of the Ageless: Offers Team-wide HP and ATK buff.
Main/Sub Stats
Body: Crit DMG%
Boots: HP%
Planar Sphere: HP%
Link Rope: Energy Regeneration Rate (ERR%)
Substats: Crit Rate/DMG > HP% > Effect Resistanc.
Please note that
- for low-speed Tribbie, if she has a Signature Light Cone, Link Rope should also prioritize HP%.
- For high-speed Tribbie, you should replace the Boots' stat with Speed.
Teams
Tribbie shines in teams that leverage follow-up attacks, hypercarries, or frequent Ultimates. Her astonishing buffs are perfect for AoE teammates.
Therefore, we recommend the following team compositions.
Hypercarry Team
Herta (Main DPS), Tribbie, Jade/Serval (Buffer), Lingsha/Huohuo (Healer).
Mydei (Main DPS), Tribbie, Sunday/Bronya, Luocha/Huohuo
Follow-Up Attack Team
Feixiao (Main DPS), Tribbie, Robin/Topaz, Aventurine/Lingsha (Sustain).
F2P-Friendly Team
Serval/Misha (DPS), Tribbie, Remembrance Trailblazer (Tank), Gallagher (Healer).
Tribbie Eidolon Pull Recommendations
Is tribbie worth pulling?
As a Harmony support in Version 3.0, Tribbie functions as an HP-scaling follow-up attack buffer. Her Skill and Ultimate provide rare attributes like Resistance Penetration and Vulnerability, which retain their effectiveness without being diluted, granting her exceptional long-term value retention.
Even at E0/S0, she delivers an outstanding gameplay experience with remarkably high cost-effectiveness. Her only drawback is her lower effectiveness in single-target scenarios, but she remains a must-pull for every account.
Eidolon 1 or Signature Light Cone?
It is recommended to prioritize pulling for Eidolon 1, and only use any surplus Oneiric Shards to pull for her signature weapon.
The 24% damage increase from Eidolon 1 applies to the entire team and provides a steady damage boost. The Signature Light Cone can be substituted with Dance! Dance! Dance!.
However, if you are building a low-speed Tribbie, it is also recommended to pull for Signature Light Cone as it offers a 48% Crit Damage increase for the entire team, making it more suitable for players seeking higher damage potential.
If you are aiming for even higher damage and power, you may consider pulling for Eidolon 2/4/6, which will provide significant buffs.
In summary, Tribbie is a Life Pursuit character capable of providing powerful support abilities such as penetration and vulnerability, significantly boosting team damage. She also has a certain level of offensive capability and is well-suited for synergy with AoE teammates such as Herta and Feixiao.
