Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae overview

Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae is a Physical-type character following the Preservation Path

With his unique blend of shield protection, summon assistance, and team damage buffing, he positions himself as a versatile hybrid survival unit. His mechanics revolve around the 【Bondmate】 mark and the 【Souldragon】 summon, enabling him to ensure party survival while providing substantial damage support in specific team compositions.

 

Strength Prospect Analysis

Advantages

Comprehensive Protection: Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae can frequently provide shields for the entire team through his Skill, Ultimate, and 【Souldragon】 actions, and these shields can stack.

Unique Utility: The 【Souldragon】 dispels one debuff from the entire party each time it acts, making it extremely effective against enemies that apply frequent debuffs.

Notable Damage Contribution: The enhanced 【Souldragon】 can launch follow-up attacks based on the 【Bondmate】's ATK, supplementing the team's damage output.

Added Light Cone Value: His signature Light Cone, " Though Worlds Apart," not only increases shield strength but also restores HP to the entire party upon using his Ultimate, offering supplemental healing and mitigating the traditional limitation of Preservation characters.

 

Disadvantages & Considerations

Shield Base Value Concerns: Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae 's base shield scaling was adjusted during testing,his individual shield application might be thinner than some traditional Preservation units, making him more reliant on frequent stacking or team synergy to maintain strong shields.

Limited Personal Damage: Although the 【Dragon Spirit】 provides extra damage, Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae is primarily a survival support and should not be expected to perform like a main DPS.

Pulling recommendation

Let’s see pulling recommendation combine with his Eidolons, actually, his E0 has perfectly functional, with his core mechanics fully available. However, some of his Eidolons provide significant survival capabilities and functional upgrades.

E1: Shed Scales of Old	When Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae uses his Ultimate, recovers 1 Skill Point(s) for the team and increases the "Bondmate's" All-Type RES PEN by 18% for 3 turn(s).
E2: Watch Trails to Blaze	Additionally increases the number of Ultimate enhancements by 2 time(s). After Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae uses Ultimate, "Souldragon's" action advances by 100%. When the enhanced "Souldragon" takes action, the Additional DMG dealt by the "Bondmate" is 200% of the original DMG, and the Shield Effect it provides in this instance is 200% of the original Shield Effect.
E4: By Oath, This Vessel Is I	Reduces DMG taken by "Bondmate" by 20%.
E6: One Dream to Enfold All Wilds	When there is a "Bondmate" on the field, increases the DMG received by all enemies by 20%. When the target chosen as "Bondmate" deals DMG, ignores 12% of the enemy target's DEF. When Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae uses his Ultimate, the "Bondmate" will deal DMG of their corresponding Type to all enemies equal to 330% of "Bondmate's" ATK. This instance of DMG dealt by the "Bondmate" is considered as 1 attack.

For most players: E0 is completely sufficient; his core survival and support functions are fully intact.

For better experience & support capability: E1 and E2 offer high value. E1 improves rotations and adds damage support, E2 significantly boosts summon damage.

For peak support & secondary damage: E4 and E6 provide higher team damage ceilings and functionality, but have lower value-for-investment, suitable for players with ample resources.

 

We provide pulling recommendation are below

Players lacking sustain units: If you own few limited 5-star survival characters, Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae can effectively bolster your team’s durability.

Players planning or using "Phainon" teams: Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae 's mechanics synergize well with characters like these who provide ATK buffs and assist summons, allowing his shields and support effects to charge Phainon’s Coreflame.

Complete Phainon’s team is below

Please note：In version 3.6, new game event: Anomaly Arbitration will be released. It is good for Phainon to build up team with 3 supporters, but in high ATK pressure condition, Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae is a necessary choice for Phainon’s team to add survival capability.

Players seeking versatile sustain: If you want a survival unit that combines shields, dispelling and some team damage buffing (via his signature Light Cone), Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae is an excellent choice.

 

Conclusion

Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae is a distinctive Preservation character offering comprehensive shield protection, valuable party-wide cleansing, and notable team contribution. While his base shield per application might not be the thickest, and his mechanics require some attention, his excellent combination of utilities makes him a standout performer in high-pressure or debuff-heavy environments.
