Recommended build

Light Cone

Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path
Best choice

Flame of Blood raises Max HP and incoming healing, then consumes HP to amplify each Skill and Ultimate attack.

When to use it : Do not pair its HP-loss play pattern with persistent shields; Mydei must actually lose HP to cycle Charge cleanly.

Relics

Best choice

Scholar increases CRIT Rate and the Skill and Ultimate damage that dominate Mydei's Vendetta cycle.

When to use it : Use the Ultimate before a Skill or automatic enhanced sequence to capture Scholar's post-Ultimate bonus.

Planar Ornaments

Best choice

Bone Collection supplies HP and CRIT DMG at a threshold Mydei exceeds while pursuing his 8,000-HP Trace cap.

When to use it : Reach 5,000 HP before combat so Bone Collection's full 28% CRIT DMG is active from the first turn.

Team lineup

Best choice

Tribbie amplifies HP-scaled area damage, Remembrance Trailblazer advances Mydei's decisive action, and Luocha sustains repeated self-consumption without blocking it.

When to use it : Use Luocha's reactive healing instead of shields so Mydei safely loses and restores HP throughout Vendetta.

Trace priority

  2. Ultimate
  3. Skill
  4. Basic ATK

Mydei spends HP to build Charge, enters Vendetta at 100, then cycles automatic Kingslayer and Godslayer attacks while allies keep him alive.

Common build decisions

These answers explain the guide's stated mechanics and assumptions. Equipment comparisons are not measured damage tests.

Practical answers added :

What changes if I use the accessible cone instead of Flame of Blood?

Flames Afar restores HP after a large loss and grants a damage bonus, but it does not provide Flame of Blood's Max HP, healing bonus or HP-consuming amplification. Recheck the 8,000 sheet HP goal and survivability after changing cones. The guide does not claim a measured damage gap between them.

Compare the cone conditions

Why can a well-equipped Mydei still enter Vendetta slowly?

Persistent shields can prevent the HP loss that feeds his Charge cycle. Use healing that lets him safely lose and recover HP, then verify 100 Charge for Vendetta and the later 150-Charge extra action. At 8,000 HP, his own Trace adds 48% CRIT Rate, so 52% on the sheet already reaches 100% without teammate buffs.

How to play it

  1. 1Use Skill to consume HP and reach 100 Charge; heal only enough to preserve the next safe self-consumption.
  2. 2At 100 Charge, enter Vendetta; Kingslayer then fires automatically at the start of Mydei's turn. Continue building toward the 150-Charge Godslayer extra action.
  3. 3Use the Ultimate to mark the priority target and gain Charge. Its damage always scales with Max HP, which Vendetta increases.

Sources and methodology

Editorial recommendations are written from released game data, then cross-checked against specialist calculations. They are not copied from a single tier list.

Review method

Prydwen and StarGuide were read independently and checked against the released local 4.4 kit. The 8,000 HP breakpoint activates the full self-Trace CRIT conversion; the listed effective cap adds that self-buff but no external CRIT Rate buff. Rotation accounting includes Skill HP consumption, Vendetta entry at 100 Charge, Kingslayer at the start of Mydei's turn, the 150-Charge Godslayer extra action, and the Ultimate's HP-based damage, Charge and marked-target behavior. Shields are not counted as healing and can obstruct HP-loss generation.

Independent E0 recommendations. The CRIT target includes Mydei's own 8,000-HP Trace conversion, but no teammate CRIT Rate.
