Overview
Gorou strengthens DEF-scaling Geo attackers with support that improves as the party’s Geo count rises. Set his banner or moving Burst field before the attacker’s window; unrelated teams gain much less.
Role
Geo-counted DEF support
Playstyle
Place the banner or activate the moving Burst field before a DEF-scaling Geo attacker takes the field.
Why It Works
Skill buff levels depend on Geo character count at casting.
Watch For
The banner and Burst do not create two stacking copies of the same support.
Playstyle
Combat Flow
Choose the party Geo count deliberately. Use the Skill for its banner, then Burst when moving support and the additional party DEF passive are needed; the Burst replaces the existing banner.
Key Notes
The Burst supplies the banner-type support and activates an additional DEF passive; its own damage is not the main support objective.
Three Geo party members unlock the Geo bonus.
Skill talent level determines flat DEF support; his own DEF does not.
C4 healing and Lunar team effects give DEF separate value.
