Teams
Is it worth pulling team damage gain, gcsim simulation
How much the whole team's damage grows compared to C0 with Favonius Greatsword (R5). Gains are cumulative: C2 includes C1.
How we calculated
The team comes from the open gcsim simulation database — the one closest to the teams in this guide. Only this character was changed: constellation and weapon. Teammates, artifact sets and rotation stay as in the original simulation; the whole team's substats are optimized to KQM standards separately for each weapon. C0 with Favonius Greatsword: 54,980 damage per second.
The gain depends on the team and investment: treat it as a guideline, not an exact number for your account. Original simulation · gcsim 4eda9fc, 2026-10-17
