Is Trailblazer (Imaginary) Worth Building?

| 5 | Planetary Rendezvous |
The Imaginary Trailblazer should be built with a lot of Break Effect since most of their DMG comes from attacking Weakness Broken enemies.
This becomes especially great when the Imaginary Trailblazer has their 4th Eidolon unlocked since it allows them to increase the party's Break Effect based on their own Break Effect.
It's also important for them to have at least 145 SPD to activate the effect from the Talia: Kingdom of Banditry set.

Trailblazer (Imaginary) Best Teams
Trailblazer (Imaginary) F2P Team
| Support | DPS | Support | Sustain |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trailblazer (Imaginary) | Xueyi | Asta | Lynx |
The Trailblazer's role in this free-to-play team is to provide supplemental DMG on a Weakness Broken enemy. Xueyi and Asta can benefit from the Backup Dancer buff and their Skills can easily Weakness Break an enemy.
Trailblazer (Imaginary) Break Team
| Support | DPS | Support | Sustain |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trailblazer (Imaginary) | Firefly | Ruan Mei | Gallagher |
The Imaginary Trailblazer works best with characters who rely on the Break Effect stat. A DPS with a high Break Effect stat like Firefly can take advantage of dealing a lot of Super Break DMG if the enemy is Weakness Broken.
Ruan Mei can increase the party's Break Effect and Break Efficiency. She can also delay an enemy's recovery from Break, allowing the team to have more chances of dealing Super Break DMG.

| Sparkle | Support ReplacementSparkle can advance the turn of the DPS and provide more Skill Points. |
| Bronya | Support ReplacementBronya can provide extra turns to the DPS and increase their DMG. |

This Trailblazer (Imaginary) team comp is viable in certain content where the enemy is weak to Quantum but not to Imaginary. Silver Wolf is a must-have for this team so she can implant an Imaginary Weakness on an enemy.
If the enemy is already weak to Imaginary, you can replace Silver Wolf with another debuffer.
| Alternative | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Imbibitor Lunae | DPS ReplacementImbibitor Lunae is a better option when up against multiple enemies and can benefit from Aventurine's Unnerved debuff on enemies. |
| Welt | Support ReplacementWelt can delay the enemies' turn and debuff their SPD. He can also equip the Resolution Shines As Pearls of Sweat Light Cone to add more DEF debuffs and increase the chances of Dr. Ratio dishing out a Follow-up attack. |
