Esiemo

Esiemo

Tier A1.0.x

Overview

Esiemo rewards planning. When enemies enter prepared zones, he delivers some of the fastest pack clears in the game; when they don't, his damage falls off sharply.

Best For

Add-heavy encounters, wave defense, choke-point control, and content where enemies can be grouped and deleted in bursts.

Best For

  • Wave-based missions
  • Add-heavy Hard-mode content
  • Choke-point defense
  • Open-world events with predictable spawns
  • Players who enjoy setup-based burst

Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

  • Extremely high burst AoE damage
  • Strong zone control with traps and mines
  • Excellent at deleting clustered enemies
  • Scales well with explosion amplification and cooldown
  • Punishes predictable spawn patterns

Weaknesses

  • Low sustained DPS between bursts
  • Inefficient for mobile boss fights
  • Requires setup and enemy prediction
  • Poor performance if enemies scatter
  • Less forgiving than sustained AoE farmers

Alternatives

Skill Extension

If your explosives expire before enemies reach them, extending duration can improve reliability.

Increased HP

Swap in for survivability if Hard-mode chip damage disrupts setup.

Build Variants by Progression

Low-investment explosive setup: focus on radius and cooldown so traps actually connect.

Stat Priority & Reactor Guidance

Stat Priority

Primary

  • • Explosive / Skill Power
  • • Skill Cooldown Reduction
  • • Skill Effect Range

Secondary

  • • Skill Power Modifier
  • • Max HP
  • • DEF (only as needed for setup survival)

Avoid

  • ✗ Sustained DPS stats
  • ✗ Weapon crit stacking
  • ✗ Pure firearm scaling

Reactor Guidance

Preferred Type:

Non-Attribute

Preferred Skill:

Fusion

Best Stats:

• Non-Attribute Skill Power Boost Ratio

• Skill Cooldown

• Skill Effect Range

Cooldown and range determine how often and how reliably your explosives connect. Prioritize those before chasing damage rolls.

Rotation & Playstyle

Rotation

  1. 1.Pre-place traps/mines in enemy paths or spawn points
  2. 2.Wait for enemies to cluster
  3. 3.Trigger detonations for maximum overlap
  4. 4.Reset and reposition for the next wave

Tips

  • 💡 Esiemo is proactive, not reactive — plan before enemies arrive.
  • 💡 If enemies keep missing traps, improve range/duration or placement.
  • 💡 Delete packs, then reposition; don't chase stragglers.
  • 💡 Your damage comes in spikes — accept downtime between bursts.

Farming Plan

Goals

  • Explosion amplification modules
  • Cooldown and range modules
  • Non-Attribute/Fusion reactors
  • External components with HP/DEF

Recommended Activities

  • Wave-based Hard-mode missions
  • Add-heavy events with predictable spawns
  • Module farms for explosive scaling pieces

Priority Targets

  • Remote Detonation
  • Explosion amplification modules
  • Cooldown/range reactor rolls

Scaling Notes

Esiemo scales with preparation efficiency — better cooldown and placement multiply burst impact across encounters.

Team Synergy

Pairs well with tanks and control characters that funnel enemies into traps.

Known Issues

Mobile bosses and scattered enemies significantly reduce effectiveness.
