History (biography)
Dahlia is a deacon in the Church of Favonius in Mondstadt who also serves as Barbatos' representative, proclaiming his will. He is closely acquainted with Venti himself and knows his secret, so he can directly address the Archon and ask his opinion on various events.
The young man himself is very similar to the Anemo deity, so he enjoys the bustle of the city, where there are even rumors that he often solves the problems of the residents by inviting them to the tavern. In addition to church affairs, he also participates in court cases, where he also represents the side of the Church of Favonia. One of the most important cases was the trial of Albedo, when he was accused of murdering residents.

Abilities
Deacon's skills are aimed mainly at protecting allies, he is not strong in personal damage. In addition, the young man can increase the attack speed of squad . His E-ka deals Hydro damage, and the super ability creates a shield that can be renewed after absorbing Benediction levels.
This character pairs best with Cryo characters and heroes that use normal attacks. This is because Benediction levels can only be gained by performing this type of attack or by triggering the Freeze reaction.
Basic skills (active skills)
Let's describe in detail all of Dahlia's abilities, paying attention to their recharge time, cooldowns and scales.

Benediction levels can be obtained as follows:
- When the active character uses a normal attack 4 times while under Favonius' Grace, 1 level of Benediction is gained.
- Activating the ive skill Wind's Merciful Favor grants 2 more levels.
- A maximum of 4 levels of Benediction can be obtained during the duration of one Favonius's Grace.
ive skills
In addition to active skills, the character has secondary abilities that work ively, without pressing skills. They will become available automatically as the hero's level increases.
life skill
During daytime (6:00-18:00), allies gain the Swift Step effect, increasing their movement speed by 10%. The effect does not work in all dungeons and the Spiral Abyss.
The gracious favor of the wind
When heroes under the effect of Favonius' Grace activate the Freeze reaction, they generate 2 stacks of Benediction. The effect occurs once every 8 seconds.
Prayer of Tempted Joy
When the active character is under the effect of Favonius' Grace, their attack speed increases based on Dahlia's Max HP: every 1000 HP increases attack speed by 0.5%. The maximum speed that can be obtained this way is 20%.
The order of leveling talents
Elemental Burst (Q) > Elemental Skill (E) > Normal Attacks
You should upgrade active abilities in the following order:
- Explosion of the elements — The most useful skill of the Mondstadt Deacon. The shield density increases depending on the level of the ability, so it should be raised to level 10 first.
- Elemental Skill — used to pump up energy and a small amount of Hydro status, which, for example, can be inflated by an Anemo character. There are few numbers from it, since the hero is going exclusively in HP. For this reason, you can not pump it at all or stop at level 6.
- Normal attacks - the character does not use them, so there is no point in spending resources on them.
Constellations
Name | Effect |
1. The Infallible Procession | Each time a character gains 1 level of Benediction, Dahlia restores 2.5 energy (10 energy per Favonius's Favor). |
2. Revelation of Mercy | After Dahlia expends Benediction stacks and summons Shield of Divine Grace, the shield strength of the protected character is increased by 25% for 12 sec. |
3. Anemone Offertory | Increases elemental burst level by 3. Max. level: 15. |
4. Collection of the meeting | Favonius' Grace duration is increased by 3 sec. |
5. Let it be so sophisticated | Increases elemental skill level by 3. Max. level: 15. |
6. So go out with joy | The attack speed of a character under Favonius' Grace is additionally increased by 10%. If the active character under the shield from the ult dies, then:
|
The best constellations of Dahlia are - С2, С4 и С6.
- Second Const. Strengthens the shield that the hero creates during the ult. Since the defense is not very strong even with a large amount of HP and only works effectively against Hydro enemies, this indicator is quite important.
- Fourth Consta Increases the duration of the Favonius's Grace effect, which is activated by an elemental explosion, by 3 sec. Grace not only provides a shield, but also increases attack speed. Const allows you to keep the effect active without windows and activate the ult immediately after the cooldown, rather than waiting 3 seconds after it ends.
- Sixth Consta Increases the attack speed buff from 20% to 30%, which is more than Yun Jin (12% on C6). Among other things, the deacon gains the ability to resurrect characters once every 15 minutes with full health, which is useful, for example, in the Abyss when unsuccessfully dodging a boss's one-shot attack.
Best characters for a squad
In battle, the young man takes the position: creates a shield from HP and buffs attack speed. There is no need for certain elements in Dahlia's teams, but to fully realize the deacon, you need to choose the right main DD:
- He should do most of his damage with normal or charged attacks. It is important that the total damage is not achieved by high numbers of individual hits, but by the number of attacks performed in one period of time.
- Synergy with two-handed sword wielders is weak, as their basic low attack speed cannot be fixed even by a buff. Spearmen, archers, and catalysts look good.
- Archon Furina, when it has no interruption resistance and closed resonance.

He's cute. If they give it to you for free, it'll be awesome. A year in Natlan (a war-land, by the way) without men was hard... morally.
If they give it for free, it will be in MINIMUM half a year. This has been the practice of the developers for a long time.
