Gorou can only generate one generic banner at a time, and characters can only benefit from the effects of one generic banner at a time. If the character leaves the area, the effects last for 2 seconds.

Beastly Fangs: On the Way to Victory

Gorou shows his courage as a general and inflicts him DGT geo-area and creates a field of general repute to encourage his companions. General Prestige – The following properties apply:

• This space has the same effects as the general’s banner, created by the elemental skill “Complete Defense of Inuzaka”, which grants bonuses to characters placed in the area of ​​effect based on the number of characters of the type Geo In a team. The field moves according to the character used.

Additionally, if Gorou uses his Inuzaka Complete Defense elemental skill while a General Prestige is active, he will not create a General Banner.

Gorou equipment and statistics

One of the sets that works well for him is the one released in version 2.3 of the game, namely the set of Shell of opulent dreams. The DEF bonus on the latter, coupled with receiving a second Def + Geo damage bonus, is perfect for him.

If you intend to play it in a much more “supportive” way, a ancient royal ritual set can be ideal.

On the gun side Favonius’ hunting bow 4 stars are ideal as they help to form particles, making your ultimate ability more available. The Ritual Bow is also a great choice to reset the cooldown on its ability.

For your stats, here are the most important ones that you should ideally have on your hourglass, mug and helmet:

device	Main statistic
hourglass	Energy charge, DEF%
coupe	Geo damage
helmet	Crit Rate / Crit Damage

Your priorities for statistics in general are energy recharge (ideally 170% total),% crit. and% DEF.

Shall we summon Gorou?

We must already understand what kind of character Gorou is. It is mainly played as a support or sub-DPS, namely as a character who does damage but does not replace a “real” DPS. In contrast to a Bennett (without its 6th constellation) it cannot be inserted into any composition, as its main strength lies in the buffering of geo-symbols.

It therefore automatically has a niche role (kennel, dog, you have it). His constellations are excellent, especially the last one, which makes him even more effective in his supporting role. The decision for Gorou is actually quite simple: are you planning to play a 100% geo-team? Do it. If not, the character is useless to you.
