Is Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae Worth Pulling?
Now that we’ve taken a look at his abilities, we can come to the conclusion that it is definitely worth pulling for him. He offers immense versatility and would make for a solid DPS character in your roster.
However, you might also be considering Fu Xuan who is also another 5-star character who engages in Quantum combat and follows the path of Preservation. However, unlike the Imbibitor Lunae, she provides solid defensive support to your roster.
Ultimately, the choice comes down to how you have played the game so far and how your roster has been developed. If you haven’t yet invested in a good DPS character, you certainly cannot go wrong with choosing Dan Heng.
