Recommended build

Light Cone

Worrisome, Blissful

Best choice

CRIT Rate, follow-up damage and a team-wide CRIT DMG debuff make the signature cone both personal and supporting power.

When to use it : Keep attacking the marked target so Tame stacks reach two and the team retains their CRIT DMG debuff.

Relics

4× The Ashblazing Grand Duke

Best choice

A normal Numby follow-up hits seven times before Grand Duke resets, while the empowered version reaches the full eight-stack ATK buff.

When to use it : Use Turn a Profit! to put Numby in Windfall Bonanza!: its empowered eight-hit follow-up is required to reach all eight Ashblazing Grand Duke ATK stacks.

Planar Ornaments

2× Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves

Best choice

A follow-up team rapidly caps the stacking follow-up damage and CRIT DMG bonuses for Numby.

When to use it : Let allies perform follow-up attacks until Duran reaches five Merit stacks.

Team lineup

Best choice

Feixiao and Aventurine generate frequent follow-ups, Robin amplifies the whole sequence, and Topaz supplies the marked-target vulnerability.

When to use it : Keep Proof of Debt on the priority target so every allied follow-up advances Numby and receives the vulnerability bonus.

Topaz & Numby marks one enemy with Proof of Debt, increases its follow-up damage taken and advances Numby whenever allies launch follow-up attacks.

How to play it

1Apply Difficulty Paying? to the priority target whenever Proof of Debt would otherwise sit on the wrong enemy.
2Use basic attacks after the mark is stable to generate Skill Points without losing follow-up pressure.
3Cast Turn a Profit! before a dense follow-up sequence so Numby's enhanced attacks receive every team buff.

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 agree that Proof of Debt and frequent allied follow-ups define Topaz's value. The 4.0 baseline was checked against the immutable released 4.0–4.4 delta and local 4.4 effects; Duran's five allied follow-ups and Grand Duke's seven normal versus eight Windfall Bonanza hits are explicit.

Independent fan recommendations based on released data. Topaz loses team value when allies rarely use follow-up attacks or cannot focus Proof of Debt.
