Topaz & Numby Guide

Topaz & Numby

Fire (The Hunt) — build teams that match Path role before chasing signatures.

Main DPS / Flex Fire The Hunt Pull: A
Verdict Worth planning around if traces and cones fit your goals
Investment Medium to High
Best mode Missions, Simulated Universe, endgame farms

Topaz & Numby follows the The Hunt Path with Fire damage type. Build relics and Light Cones that reinforce that role—speed tuning for supports, break or crit packages for carries. Compare with your existing roster; Path overlap can make skips rational even for strong kits. Infobox snapshot via Fandom; verify traces/LC recommendations each patch.

Instant Tech

Read Topaz & Numby's in-game kit: note field-time needs vs quick-swap value.

Before farming limited domains, clear one ER or survivability floor that stops failed bursts.

Compare vs recent banner mates — overlap often matters more than abstract power.

Strengths

  • Clear Fire identity for team-building.
  • Weapon (The Hunt) gives obvious build targets.

Weaknesses

  • Patch/banner competition can move value quickly.
  • Needs honest trace/Echo investment — not a zero-setup win.

Common Mistakes

  • Chasing perfect relic substats before core traces are online.
  • Running teams that fight over skill points every turn.
  • Assuming a Light Cone is optional when the kit math assumes it.

Build Plan

Build Priority

Traces that unlock the character's win condition first, then relic main stats that stabilize the intended rotation (speed breakpoints, effect hit rate, or break as needed).

Gear Focus

Relics + Light Cone should answer the unit's primary check: survival, SP economy, debuff consistency, or pure damage.

Premium Team

Premium teams pair Topaz & Numby with top supports on the same weakness-plan without starving action economy.

Budget Team

Budget teams accept slower clears by leaning on f2p light cones and flexible healers/shielders.

Rotation tip: Open with supports, align Topaz & Numby's main window, then exit before buffs expire.

Upgrade order: Trace materials: core skill → talent → leftovers. Plan weekly boss drops ahead of banner end.

Dupes: Eidolon power spikes differ; E0 baseline is the honest comparison point for most accounts.

Verdict

Topaz & Numby is a The Hunt pick with Fire typing. Invest when you can finish traces and a sane cone path.
