🎯 Basic Assumptions:

  • Both heroes are at level 15

  • Full skill rotation is cast

  • No buffs, items, or Spell Vamp



🔥 Zetian Base Skill Breakdown (Level 15)

  • Phoenix Strike

    • Wave 1: 185 + (30% Magic Power) → Base only = 185

    • Wave 2: 185

    • Wave 3: 330

    • Total = 700 base damage

  • Phoenix Descent

    • Initial Hit: 150

    • Area Damage (3s): 6 ticks × 20 = 120

    • Charge Impact: 150

    • Total = 420 base damage

  • Ultimate – Fury of the Phoenix

    • Total = 400

  • Passive – Celestial Armament (Shield/Knockback)

    • Damage: 90 + (10 × 15) = 240

➡️ Zetian Total Base Damage (Full Combo) = 700 + 420 + 400 + 240 = 1,760 base damage


🦋 Zhuxin Base Skill Breakdown (Level 15)

  • Fluttering Grace: 150 base damage

  • Lantern Flare Hold:

    • 0.25s per tick → Estimate 2.5s channel = 10 ticks × 33 = 330

    • Final Release: 300 base

    • Total = 630 base damage

  • Crimson Beacon (Ultimate)

    • 6s × 1 tick/sec × 60 = 360 base damage

➡️ Zhuxin Total Base Damage (Full Combo) = 150 + 630 + 360 = 1,140 base damage


⚔️ Winner Without Items:

Zetian Prevails due to:

  • Higher burst potential (700+ from Phoenix Strike alone)

  • Passive damage burst (Celestial Armament)

  • Slight CC edge (stun + knockback + vision)
