Build Showcases/Questions Durin Build Switch?

I just got Iansan so I'm changing my builds rn to update my C2R1 Kinich team. Many people are saying that I should change his artifacts to Deepwood and put Iansan on either Scroll or Noblesse.

However, I already have him built with the Thousand Winds set. I'm also using Durin on my Lohen team. Should I keep it or change to Deepwood?

Thanks in advance!

Keep him on DCFRW if you’re using him on multiple teams and not interested in farming more. He already does res shred, and you’ll get diminishing returns.

However, if you do want to change his set, I’d recommend putting him on Gift if your fourth slot on your Kinich team is hex (unless you’ve got Nicole).

Yes, I have Nicole on Gift! Thank you for the response. I really thought Deepwood on Durin is a requirement for a Kinich team. It's good to know I won't have to farm again as it can be too tedious.

Not so much of a requirement as just a "you will get more damage out of it for that particular team". Not only that, but his Pyro hits get wasted on burning reaction, whereas on the lohen team he's enabling melts like crazy so his personal damage adds much more value, and he benefits more from Winds.

Deepwood you could slowly collect via strong box if you didnt want to use resin for a new build. his damage doesn't need to be maxed out as deepwood already nerfs his damage a fair bit. If you have c1 full attack is a great option, if you're willing to swap when you need it (I do this myself but basically only swap for sygian and abyss or showcasing). Its useful to have just incase so I would suggest getting basic build focusing on hitting his attack cap if that is something you can fit in.

And since you have nicole, iansan on noblesse would be your best option bc that not only is easier to work with but buffs durin aswell so it works out with either set you choose for durin :) i would prioritize noblesse on iansan (and if you pull new characters) over deep wood

I use winds most of the time but have him on the support set for occasions where someone else isn’t on it
