Luocha is a 5-star Imaginary character on the Path of the Abundance, and his entire value comes from automatic healing that scales off his ATK. He fits into almost any roster because his Skill heals on demand and his Talent Field restores HP every time an ally attacks a marked enemy. The build below is built around one principle: the higher his ATK, the stronger every heal becomes.
Quick answer: Equip the 4-piece Musketeer of Wild Wheat relic set with a Fleet of the Ageless planar set, slot Echoes of the Coffin as his Light Cone, and prioritize ATK% on Body, Feet, and Planar Sphere with Energy Regeneration Rate on the Link Rope.
Best relics and planar ornaments for Luocha
Because Luocha’s heals scale from ATK, the goal is to push his attack stat as high as possible while keeping enough Speed to act often. The 4-piece Musketeer of Wild Wheat set is the cleanest choice, but mixed two-piece options work well if your relic rolls are uneven.
| Set option | What it gives |
|---|---|
| 4-piece Musketeer of Wild Wheat | 15% ATK, plus 20% ATK and 10 SPD for 1 turn after a Basic ATK |
| 2-piece Messenger Traversing Hackerspace + 2-piece Musketeer of Wild Wheat | SPD bonus paired with 15% ATK |
| 2-piece Messenger Traversing Hackerspace + 2-piece Sacerdos’ Relived Ordeal | SPD support paired with a conditional ATK boost |
For planar ornaments, Fleet of the Ageless is the default pick for its ATK boost and team HP bonus. Broken Keel is a strong alternative if you can hold high Effect RES, since it adds team-wide Crit DMG.
| Ornament | Why use it |
|---|---|
| Fleet of the Ageless | ATK increase with a team-wide HP buff |
| Broken Keel | Effect RES with team Crit DMG when the RES threshold is met |

Best Light Cones for Luocha
Luocha’s signature Echoes of the Coffin is the strongest fit. It raises his ATK by 20%, grants all allies 16 Speed for 1 turn after his Ultimate, and restores Energy for each different target he hits. That extra Speed and Energy lets him fire his Ultimate more often, which is what keeps his Field uptime high.
| Light Cone | Notes |
|---|---|
| Echoes of the Coffin | Signature 5-star; ATK boost, team Speed, and Energy on multi-target hits |
| Multiplication | F2P-friendly Abundance option |
| Dream’s Montage | Solid support alternative |
| Quid Pro Quo | 4-star that restores Energy to a low-Energy ally; obtainable from the Forgotten Hall shop |
| Perfect Timing | Outgoing Healing scaling tied to Effect RES |
Best main stats and substats
Keep his main stats centered on ATK%, with Outgoing Healing as a viable Body choice if you want even stronger heals. Speed on the Feet helps him reach action thresholds faster, and Energy Regeneration Rate on the Link Rope keeps his Ultimate online.
| Slot | Main stat |
|---|---|
| Body | Outgoing Healing or ATK% |
| Feet | Speed or ATK% |
| Planar Sphere | ATK% |
| Link Rope | Energy Regeneration Rate |
For substats, prioritize Speed and ATK% first. HP% adds survivability, and Effect RES helps him resist crowd control so his Field is never accidentally dispelled.

How Luocha’s healing kit works
The reason ATK matters so much becomes clear once you read his abilities. Every heal and the Field’s restore amount are tied to his attack value, so investing in damage stats directly raises how much HP he gives back.
| Ability | Effect |
|---|---|
| Basic ATK — Thorns of the Abyss | Deals Imaginary DMG equal to 50% of ATK to one enemy |
| Skill — Prayer of Abyss Flower | Restores an ally’s HP by 40% of ATK plus 200 and grants 1 Abyss Flower stack. Auto-triggers on any ally that drops to 50% HP or lower without spending a Skill Point; this auto-heal can repeat after 2 turns |
| Ultimate — Death Wish | Removes 1 buff from all enemies, deals 120% of ATK as AoE Imaginary DMG, and grants 1 Abyss Flower stack |
| Talent — Cycle of Life | At 2 Abyss Flower stacks, deploys a Field for 2 turns. Allies attacking enemies in the Field restore HP equal to 12% of ATK plus 60 |
| Technique — Mercy of a Fool | Triggers the Talent at the start of the next battle |
Note: The Field is removed if Luocha is knocked down, so keeping him alive and topped up matters as much as healing the rest of the team.
Luocha Eidolons ranked for investment
Eidolon 1 is the standout upgrade because it gives the whole team a 20% ATK boost whenever the Field is active. After that, returns are smaller unless you want him as a heavier support or sub-DPS.
| Eidolon | Effect |
|---|---|
| E1 — Ablution of the Quick | All allies gain 20% ATK while the Field is active |
| E2 — Bestowal From the Pure | Skill on an ally below 50% HP raises Luocha’s Outgoing Healing by 30%; at 50% HP or higher, the ally gets a shield worth 18% of ATK plus 240 for 2 turns |
| E3 — Surveyal by the Fool | Skill +2 (max 15), Basic ATK +1 (max 10) |
| E4 — Heavy Lies the Crown | Enemies in the Field are Weakened and deal 12% less DMG |
| E5 — Cicatrix ‘Neath the Pain | Ultimate +2 (max 15), Talent +2 (max 15) |
| E6 — Reunion With the Dust | Ultimate reduces all enemies’ All-Type RES by 20% for 2 turns (100% fixed chance) |
Trace bonuses worth unlocking
Leveling his Traces raises his base ATK, HP, and DEF while adding three bonus abilities that make his healing more reliable. The cleanse from Cleansing Revival is especially valuable against debuff-heavy fights.
| Trace | Effect |
|---|---|
| Ascension 2 — Sanctified | When an enemy in the Field is attacked, all allies except the attacker restore HP equal to 7% of ATK plus 93 |
| Ascension 4 — Through the Valley | Increases the chance to resist crowd-control debuffs by 70% |
| Ascension 6 — Cleansing Revival | Removes 1 debuff from a target ally when the Skill’s effect triggers |
His stat traces total +30% ATK, +18% Max HP, and +12.5% DEF when fully unlocked.
Ascension and Trace materials
Ascending Luocha to the level cap requires Imaginary-aligned modules and boss drops, while maxing his Traces needs a larger spread of materials and Credits. Plan farming around the Artifex’s Module line and Golden Crown of the Past Shadow.
| Purpose | Materials |
|---|---|
| Full ascension | 15x Artifex’s Module, 15x Artifex’s Cogwheel, 15x Artifex’s Gyreheart, 65x Golden Crown of the Past Shadow |
| All Traces | 12x Destroyer’s Final Road, 9x Seed of Abundance, 45x Sprout of Life, 90x Flower of Eternity, 27x Artifex’s Module, 39x Artifex’s Cogwheel, 21x Artifex’s Gyreheart, 3,000,000 Credits |
Built this way, Luocha plays as a near-passive healer who almost never needs his Skill on cooldown. Push his ATK, keep enough Speed to act early, and feed him Energy so his Ultimate strips enemy buffs while topping off the team. That combination makes him a dependable defensive anchor for HP-hungry DPS units and squishy supports alike.
