Recommended build

Light Cone

A Grounded Ascent
Best choice

Energy, Skill Point recovery and a three-stack damage buff solve Sunday's complete rotation in one cone.

When to use it : Maintain a three-action Ultimate rotation so Hymn's Skill Point recovery and damage stacks remain continuous.

Relics

Best choice

Repeated single-target Skills maintain two CRIT DMG stacks on the carry and its summon without changing speed order.

When to use it : Skill the same carry on consecutive Sunday turns so both 18% CRIT DMG stacks remain active.

Planar Ornaments

Best choice

Energy Regeneration supports the three-turn Ultimate loop and the first-slot ATK buff strengthens Jing Yuan.

When to use it : Place the ATK-scaling carry in team slot one; otherwise Lushaka's 12% ATK buff misses the intended target.

Team lineup

Best choice

Sunday advances Jing Yuan and Lightning-Lord, Robin amplifies both damage dealers, and Aventurine protects without consuming the carry's actions.

When to use it : Keep Jing Yuan one SPD above Sunday after every active buff; Robin's team advance changes action timing but not the required relative order.

Maintain a three-action Ultimate rotation so Hymn's Skill Point recovery and damage stacks remain continuous.

AlternativeSunday's frequent Ultimate advances every ally, a universal alternative when the team values tempo.

No additional condition documented in this guide.

SituationalIts Break Effect is relevant only to that team archetype, while the once-per-turn Energy return requires Sunday to attack.

Use it only in a Break team where Skill Point constraints make Sunday Basic Attack often; its Energy effect does not trigger from his Skill-spam rotation.

SituationalPlanetary Rendezvous offers a strong same-element team damage bonus.

Use it only with an Imaginary damage dealer, since its team damage bonus requires an ally with Sunday's damage type.

Accessible optionThe next acting ally receives a large one-turn damage bonus after Sunday's Skill advances them.

No additional condition documented in this guide.

This four-star cone is purchasable from the Forgotten Hall shop and can be superimposed without Warp pulls.

Trace priority

  1. Skill
  2. Ultimate
  3. Talent
  4. Basic ATK

Sunday advances a carry and its summon, restores Energy and maintains long CRIT buffs through Beatified.

How to play it

  1. 1Tune Sunday one SPD below Jing Yuan, then let the carry act before Sunday's first Skill.
  2. 2Use Ultimate on that same carry and keep it Beatified for the Skill Point refund.
  3. 3Skill every Sunday turn; use Basic only if the Ultimate buff was lost and the team cannot afford a Skill Point.

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 Icy Veins were compared with Sunday's exact 4.4 skill data. His Ultimate restores 20% of the target's Max Energy, with a 40-Energy minimum, then Beatified has a three-turn duration that decreases at the start of each Sunday turn. Sunday refunds one Skill Point only when his Skill targets the Beatified ally. His Skill advances both a character and that character's summon by 100%, adds 30% DMG plus another 50% for a summon, and his Talent adds 20% CRIT Rate; all of those bonuses are excluded from the carry's sheet targets.
