Great for Normal and Charged Attack DPS

The Ballad of the Boundless Blue is a great free-to-play choice for characters whose DMG relies mostly on the combination of Normal and Charged Attacks, as each and every hit will increase DMG for a maximum of 3 stacks!

Additionally, the Ballad of the Boundless Blue will provide your characters more Energy Recharge for constant Burst uptime, which is especially good for characters who want to use their Bursts off-cooldown like Neuvillette, Klee, and Yanfei.
