Best Drive Disc sets for Seed

Seed's best 4-piece set is Dawn's Bloom. Woodpecker Electro and Hormone Punk are the alternatives, in that order.

  1. Dawn's Bloom Drive Disc set icon

    Dawn's Bloom Best in slot

    4-piece: Increases Basic Attack DMG by 20%. When equipped by an Attack character, using an EX Special Attack or Ultimate will further increase Basic Attack DMG by 20% for 25s. Repeated triggers reset the duration

    2-piece: Increases Basic Attack DMG by 15%. Drops from Iron Law and Outlaws.

  2. Woodpecker Electro Drive Disc set icon

    Woodpecker Electro

    4-piece: Landing a critical hit on an enemy with a Basic Attack, Dodge Counter, or EX Special Attack increases the equipper's ATK by 9% for 6s. The buff duration for different skills are calculated separately

    2-piece: CRIT Rate +8%. Drops from Tower and Cannon.

  3. Hormone Punk Drive Disc set icon

    Hormone Punk

    4-piece: Upon becoming the active character in combat, the equipper's ATK increases by 25% for 10s. This effect can trigger once every 20s

    2-piece: ATK +10%. Drops from Fist and Gun.

2-piece options

For the 2-piece slot the bonus matters, not the set's name. Several sets share the same 2-piece bonus, so Seed can take it from whichever one you have spare pieces of:

Seed main stats: Disk 4, 5 and 6

Disks 1 to 3 always roll HP, ATK and DEF as their main stat, so the choice is on 4, 5 and 6. A > means "better than"; = means the two are about as good.

SlotMain stat, best first
Disk 4CRIT DMG > CRIT Rate
Disk 5PEN Ratio > ATK% = Electric DMG%
Disk 6ATK%

Seed substat priority

Roll for CRIT DMG and CRIT Rate first. A disc showing neither of those is rarely worth levelling for Seed, whatever else it has.

  1. CRIT DMG
  2. CRIT Rate
  3. ATK%
  4. PEN
  5. Flat ATK

Building more than one agent? The Area Patrol Recommender ranks every stage for your whole team at once, and the Drive Disc Stat Guide says which drops to keep while you farm.

Seed W-Engine and skill priority

Cordis Germina W-Engine

Cordis Germina S-rank, CRIT Rate sub-stat

Seed's signature is the undisputed best choice. It delivers huge CRIT Rate, stacking Electric DMG, and 20% DEF Ignore on Basic Attacks and Ultimates once the Electric DMG buff is maxed, covering everything she wants.

Skills to level first

  1. Basic Attack
  2. Chain Attack
  3. Special Attack
  4. Assist
  5. Dodge

These agents compete with Seed for the same set, which is worth knowing before you hand a good piece to one of them.

Questions

What is the best Drive Disc set for Seed?

Dawn's Bloom 4-piece, with Woodpecker Electro or Hormone Punk as the alternatives. For the 2-piece, any set with CRIT Rate +8%, CRIT DMG +16%, PEN Ratio +8% or Electric DMG +10% works.

What main stats should Seed use on Disk 4, 5 and 6?

Disk 4: CRIT DMG > CRIT Rate. Disk 5: PEN Ratio > ATK% = Electric DMG%. Disk 6: ATK%. Disks 1 to 3 have fixed main stats (HP, ATK and DEF), so only their substats matter.

What substats does Seed need?

In priority order: CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, ATK%, PEN, Flat ATK. The first two are what make a disc worth levelling for Seed; the rest are tiebreakers.

Where do I farm Seed's Drive Discs?

Dawn's Bloom drops from the Iron Law and Outlaws Area Patrol stage, alongside Moonlight Lullaby. Each run at Lv.60 costs 60 Battery Charge and splits its S-rank discs between the two sets.
