For pioneers, choosing the right Phantom can greatly optimize team performance and improve combat efficiency. This article will detail the top ten E1 and E2 Phantoms worth summoning in the Amphiros update, helping you build the strongest lineup in the world of Phantoms.

Phantom Basics

Phantoms are a crucial system for improving character abilities in Honkai Impact 3rd. Through their skill bonuses, characters can increase damage, boost defense, restore energy, or gain special effects. Compared to E6-level Phantoms, E1 and E2-level Phantoms consume fewer resources, making them easier for average players to obtain and utilize. They also offer significant benefits, making them ideal for daily battles and dungeon exploration.

TOP 10: Anaxa's E1 - Magician Isolated by Stars

Anaxa's E1 Phantom restores 1 skill point upon first use and reduces the target's defense by 16% for 2 turns upon attack.

This defense reduction, combined with Anaxa's signature cone of light, makes her an excellent choice for both single-target damage and team buffs. In a double-Erudito team, Anaxa can significantly boost the team's attack damage, making her an essential early-game option.

TOP 9: Hyacine's E1 - Candle of Night in the Cradle

Hyacine's E1 Phantom grants an additional 50% maximum health to all allies during "After the Rain" and instantly restores 8% of her own health after attacking.

This skill not only enhances the damage output of characters based on health but also provides a continuous healing effect, making the team more survivable in sustained combat. Furthermore, for characters who rely on healing and energy recharge, such as Castorice, E1 significantly increases skill frequency and efficiency.

TOP 8: Aglaea's E1 - Drifting on Venus's Whims

Aglaea's E1 eidolon increases damage taken by enemies affected by "Stitches" by 15% and restores an additional 20 energy points after attacking.

TOP 7: Mydei's E1 - Frost Tempers a Steel Backbone

Mydei's E1 amplifies the damage of "Godslayer Becomes God," dealing imaginary damage to all enemies equal to the primary target.

This effect significantly increases Mydei's output in multi-target encounters, making her a core character for area-of-effect damage, making her a great choice for dungeons and challenge levels.

TOP 6: Cerydra's E1 - Take Everyone's Crown

Cerydra's E1 eidolon restores 2 energy to a designated friendly target upon skill casting and allows characters with "Military Merit" to ignore the target's defense by 16%. Upon upgrading to "Noble," the skill's damage ignores defense by 20%.

This skill provides additional energy for high-damage characters, allowing them to use their ultimate more frequently while also increasing damage penetration, making it an essential support eidolon for the team.

TOP 5: Hysilens's E1 - Why Do You Cry?

Hysilens's E1 eidolon increases the damage dealt by friendly targets over time to 116% of their original damage, and DoTs applied through talents can trigger an additional time.

This skill significantly increases damage over time and helps characters stack arcane spells faster, making it particularly powerful in multi-round encounters and dungeons.

TOP 4: Herta's E2 - Wind Through the Keyhole

Herta's E2 Phantom gains a stack of "Inspiration" after entering combat or using her ultimate. Using a boosted skill increases her next action by 35%.

TOP 3: Castorice's E2 - Crown on Blooming Wings

Castorice's E2 Phantom gains two stacks of "Fiery Will" after summoning the Memory Spirit Wing. Using the Memory Spirit's skills offsets health drain and boosts her action bar by 100%.

This effect allows Castorice to instantly use her boosted skills and maximize the output of her Wing skills, achieving a high attack frequency and powerful damage, making her a crucial choice as a team's core damage dealer.

TOP 2: Phainon's E2 - Earth and Earth, Mortals Bubble

Phainon's E2 Phantom increases physical resistance penetration by 20% and grants an extra turn with a single use of "Star Death Judgment."

This skill not only enhances damage output but also increases skill usage frequency, allowing Phainon to perform more combos during her ultimate, significantly increasing combat efficiency.
