Recommended Skill Sets
Dual Status Burst Build
Playstyle
Rapidly stack Burn and Freeze status effects through Ice-Fire skills, disrupting enemy actions while accumulating Burn stacks. Utilize Full Combustion to double trigger high damage, with Flame Shield providing survival protection. A control + burst comprehensive playstyle.
Why this set works
Use Frost Descent and Flammable Substance to quickly stack Burn + Freeze dual abnormalities. Flame Shield ensures survival and counter-stacks Burn, then use Full Combustion to double Burn layers and trigger damage for burst finish. Dual abnormality disruption + high burst finisher—this is the most comprehensive playstyle for Nine-Tailed Fox.
Frost Descent
Why pick this skill
Core Ice-type control skill. 0 Energy to directly inflict 4 stacks of Freeze on the enemy. Combined with the trait Soul Burn to simultaneously inflict 4 stacks of Burn. Nine-Tailed Fox's core status initiation skill. Freeze controls enemy actions, while Burn sets up for subsequent burst damage.
Flammable Substance
Why pick this skill
Core Fire-type damage + abnormal skill. 2-hit combo applies 2 Burn layers each hit, combined with trait Soul Scorch can also apply 2 Freeze layers. Low energy cost (30) high frequency, can stack both Burn and Freeze, perfectly fits dual abnormal tactics.
Complete Combustion
Why pick this skill
Burst core: doubles enemy Burn stacks and triggers one Burn damage tick. Combined with Frost Descent + Flammable Substance for rapid Burn stacking, it delivers massive burst damage—Nine-Tailed Fox's primary finishing tool.
Flame Shield
Why pick this skill
Defensive counter skill, 70% damage reduction for survival, applying 6 Burn stacks to the enemy when responding to attacks. With the Soul Scorch trait, Fire-type skills also apply 2 Freeze stacks, combining survival with status stacking, suitable for field attrition.
Mark Conversion Burst Build
Playstyle
Use Frost Descent to quickly stack Freeze marks, convert all Freeze marks into massive Burn layers at once through Incineration Brand, then use Full Combustion to double and trigger burst damage. Winter Solstice provides weather environment support. This is a high burst combo playstyle.
Why this set works
Frost Descent stacks freeze → Burning Brand converts freeze into massive burn → Full Combustion doubles trigger damage, Winter Solstice provides weather environment. This combo can deliver maximum burst in short time, suitable for quickly ending battles.
Frost Descent
Why pick this skill
0-cost Ice-type control, applies 4 layers of Freeze + trait 4 layers of Burn, basic skill for quick dual status startup, accumulates mark layers for subsequent Incineration Brand
Burning Brand
Why pick this skill
Core mechanic skill. Dispels all marks from both sides, applying 5 layers of Burn to the enemy for each mark dispelled. Combined with the 4 layers of Freeze (mark) from Frost Descent, can directly convert to 20 layers of Burn, instantly stacking high Burn layers.
Complete Combustion
Why pick this skill
Used with Burning Brand. Doubles high Burn stacks and triggers damage. Assuming Frost's Descent 4 stacks of Freeze dispelled = 20 stacks of Burn, doubled to 40 stacks, the triggered damage is extremely significant. A limit burst combination.
Winter Solstice
Why pick this skill
0 Energy Cost changes weather to Blizzard for 8 turns. May receive bonuses when combined with Nine-Tailed Fox's Ice attribute, while creating Ice-type environment to strengthen own tactical positioning, providing environmental support for sustained combat.
Dual-Attribute Field Sustain Build
Playstyle
Alternate dual-attribute output with Blizzard and Flame Spear, each attack using trait to apply Burn and Freeze. Winter Solstice changes weather to enhance Ice-type output environment, Flame Shield provides survival protection, belonging to sustained attrition playstyle.
Why this set works
Blizzard + Flame Spear dual-attribute coverage, Winter Solstice changes weather to boost Ice-type, Flame Shield ensures survival. Utilizes Soul Burn trait to inflict dual status on every attack, wearing down opponents through sustained field presence. Suitable for prolonged battles.
Blizzard

Winter Solstice
Why pick this skill
Changes weather to Blizzard for 8 turns. May gain damage bonus with Blizzard skill. Strengthens Ice-type tactical atmosphere, creating environment for sustained field presence.
Flame Spear
Why pick this skill
Fire-type physical damage skill, 100 energy base output, grants 2 stacks of Freeze with trait. Serves as Fire-type coverage damage, forming dual-type coverage with Blizzard to handle different resistance enemies.

Notes
- Nine-Tailed Fox's core mechanic lies in the trait Soul Scorch: Ice-type skills give enemies 4 stacks of Burn, Fire-type skills give enemies 2 stacks of Freeze. This makes Nine-Tailed Fox a unique dual-attribute status stacker, requiring simultaneous use of both Burn and Freeze status conditions.
- Base stats: HP 92, Defenses 67/86, Speed 80, Offenses 70/70. A moderately bulky support/disruptor pet, better suited for attrition and status control rather than burst damage.
- Skill pool covers: Ice-type control (Frost's Descent, Blizzard, Winter Solstice, Freezing Point, Snowball Fight), Fire-type damage and Burn (Flame Spear, Burning Brand, Full Combustion, Flame Shield, Flammable Material), and support buffs (Warm-up).
- Key Synergy: Incinerating Brand dispels marks to convert them into Burn stacks, combined with Burn stacks from Ice-type skills, then using Full Combustion to double and trigger high damage; Flame Shield provides damage reduction + counter Burn, suitable for field presence; Winter Solstice changes weather to pair with Blizzard for physical damage + Freeze.
