CoreIron Cavalry Against the Scourge

Fugue's goal is to reach 220% Break Effect not the 250% required to fully activate this set. Also her Break damage isn't a large contributor to overall team damage. With that said if you have all other boxes checked and don't desire any of the other options increasing her Break damage never hurts.

2PCIncreases Break Effect by 16%.

4PCIf the wearer's Break Effect is 150% or higher, the Break DMG dealt to the enemy target ignores 10% of their DEF. If the wearer's Break Effect is 250% or higher, the Super Break DMG dealt to the enemy target additionally ignores 15% of their DEF.

Best set for Fugue assuming there is Fire weakness which depending on her teammate can be all the time or only some of the time. Whether this set is best in slot will depend on that and the enemies you're facing.

2PCIncreases the wearer's SPD by 6%. When the wearer hits an enemy target that has Fire Weakness, the wearer's Break Effect increases by 40%, lasting for 1 turn(s).

A Break Effect carry with two Harmony units that raise Break damage and Weakness Break efficiency, and a sustain that keeps Break uptime rather than adding damage.

A single-target Break carry: one Harmony unit raises Break damage, one implants the Weakness he needs, and the sustain is the one that also breaks.

Break damage across a whole wave rather than one target, so both Harmony slots go to Break amplification and the sustain adds Break of its own.
