Shu-Zhen the Valorous — guide
Guide: Shu-Zhen the Valorous
In short
Shu-Zhen the Valorous is a Legendary Support from the Shadowkin faction with Darkness affinity. She shines in Arena, Faction Wars, Hydra and Chimera, but drops off hard in dungeons and most hard-mode content. Build her for Speed and Accuracy — her passive turns Speed into Accuracy, so one stat does double duty.
Strengths
- Cleansing Petals gives an ally Increase ATK 50%, Increase C.RATE 30%, Increase C.DMG 30% and an Extra Turn — a full setup for your damage dealer.
- The same skill removes Sheep, a rare and valuable answer to control.
- Onslaught of the Valorous fills all allies' turn meters by 20% with Increase SPD 30%, and at a guaranteed 100% reduces all enemies' turn meters by 20% and applies Decrease SPD 30%.
- Her A1 places Block Active Skills and steals 20% turn meter from a target that is already blocked.
- Arena aura gives allies +30% Speed, and the passive adds her Speed to her Accuracy, so you never have to sacrifice other stats for ACC.
Weaknesses
- Base Speed of 110 is low for a support who must move first — you have to fix it with gear.
- 826 ATK means almost no personal damage; she is pure utility.
- Immunity, cleansing and high Resistance shut down her A1 and A3 debuffs.
- Dungeons (3.0), Doom Tower (2.5) and hard content (2.0) are weak areas for her kit.
Where to use
Classic Arena and Tag Team Arena (5.0) plus Live Arena are her home — the Extra Turn into buffs combo and the team-wide speed swing decide fights. Next comes Faction Wars (5.0), then Chimera (4.5) and Hydra (4.0), where the turn-meter drop and Decrease SPD matter. In Clan Boss (3.5) she works but is not mandatory. Dungeons (3.0), Doom Tower (2.5) and hard mode (2.0) are her weak spots — bring her only if you lack support.
Stats and gear
Priority: Speed → Accuracy → survivability. Aim for roughly 250–300+ Speed (higher for Arena), and remember your real Accuracy includes the passive bonus — always check the total before facing high-Resistance teams. Around 40–50k HP, 2,500–3,000 DEF, and 200–300 Resistance if you can spare it. Ignore C.RATE and C.DMG. Sets: Speed, Accuracy, Perception, Divine Speed, Reflex, Relentless, Righteous — in practice two Speed sets plus Accuracy or Perception is the cleanest pick.
Masteries and blessings
Go Support (the build lists Slow The Enemy) plus Defense, picking up Speed, Accuracy and survivability nodes so she survives to a second rotation. Blessings: Life Harvest for sustain, Intimidating Presence if you want extra control pressure. Relics: Journal of Necrotos, Wand of Submission, Hallowed Hilt.
Song of Tomes
Book Cleansing Petals first: two levels cut the cooldown from 5 to 3 turns, and that skill is your whole engine (buffs, Extra Turn, Sheep removal). Then Onslaught of the Valorous (6 → 4 turns) for more frequent speed swings. Leave the A1 for last and only with spare books.
Verdict
A top-tier Arena support with a unique Sheep cleanse and strong team acceleration, but a narrow PvE pick. If you play Arena and Faction Wars, she is worth the investment.
Build
The build is a guideline: the first sets in the list fit most often. Adapt it to your artifacts and goals.
