Best Matrices Build for Lan in Tower of Fantasy
Lan is a Simulcrum and her weapon is a Flame weapon with Defense attributes tied to her kit. It’s no surprise that her Best-in-Slot matrices are her own Matrices where the 2-piece bonus set increases her Flame attack and Flame damage when players equip at least one Flame weapon, which can even be equipped off-field.
Her 4-piece on the other hand, grants the player’s weapon a certain elemental damage percentage per elemental weapon equipped which also grants a large amount of final damage for each alternative weapon. Aside from Lan’s matrices, you can also equip Lin’s matrices if you do not have Lan’s signature matrices. Annabella’s matrices are also highly recommended for usability purposes. In this guide, we will best Matrices builds for Lan in Tower of Fantasy.
Although the Standard matrices can be equipped along with the Limited matrices, they are not really ideal if you are aiming to maximize Lan’s full potential. Samir and Crow’s 2-piece matrices provide a base stat of 60% increased damage which is lackluster due to the damage split. A stronger choice would also be to give the 2-piece Matrices of bothHaboela and Scylla that gives a 75% personal damage boost compared to the Standard matrices.

Best Team Comps for Lan in Tower of Fantasy
Lan is a Flame Defense Simulacrum that enables her to stay on-field and off-field as much as she can to deal with her own personal damage. Her main damage comes from her Parasols which deal extra damage when placed. It is advisable to pair her weapon up with a Flame Weapon or Support weapon to take advantage of the Flame Resonance. In a Lan team with Annabella, there are two distinct play-styles, one with Lan as the Main DPS and another one with Annabella as the Main DPS. Here is the full breakdown of the suggested team comps for Lan.
Lan (Main DPS)+ Annabella + Lin
With Lan as the Main DPS, you first start with the rotation with Lin on-field. Use her signature Moonlight Real and then afterward use Lan’s auto attacks to spawn her Parasols, followed by her Skills. Switch to Annabella where you dodge 3 times to compensate for the lag and utilize her bullets. Discharge back into Lan to use her auto attacks and her Skills for around a couple of seconds. Repeat the rotation by switching to Lin again to use her Moonlight Realm.
Lan + Annabella (Main DPS) + Lin
While Lan does significantly proves more damage output than Annabella, one of the biggest benefits of using Annabella is that you can benefit from a huge 30% trait on-field increase, which helps with all the passive damage coming from Lin and Lan. While running Annabella as Main DPS, it is recommended that players equip her with Annabella’s matrices, or else your dodge time won’t be enough to fill in the downtime. The full rotation is to use Annabella’s bullets off cool-down, then switch to Lan to do auto attacks. Finally, players would switch to their third Weapon to deal any damage or provide.
