The Dragons: Burn Builds

The Dragons
Updated on Aug 6, 2026

Overview

Burn is, to nobody's surprise, a core mechanic of The Dragons. It's all about scaling up and scorching the enemy, so that you can inevitably watch their Health tick down to zero.

There's a wide range of playable variants, many of which can begin as early as Day 1. In this guide, we'll showcase some different examples of how you can assemble a Burn build.

We'll be adding more builds along the way, so stay tuned for future updates.

This build focuses on maximizing Slow triggers in order to spam a ton of Burn with Flame Skirt, all while keeping enemies at snail speed.

Core Items

  • Flame Skirt — The main source of offense that converts all Slow triggers into Burn.
  • Dragon Lighter — Reliable Burn scaling for Flame Skirt. Can be replaced later if base Burn is high enough.
  • Fireworks Drone — A good self-scaling threat that helps during longer fights.
  • ISO-Belle — A multi-targeting source of Slows with a low Cooldown.
  • Power Bank — Accelerates other items on board via Charge. Silver-tier is not recommended.
  • Light Drone — Slightly slower than ISO-Belle, but can also benefit from the D Note.
  • Strobe Grenade — Creates an absurd amount of Slow triggers even with limited Ammo.
  • Smoke Machine — Provides a ton of Shield alongside Flame Skirt.

Additional Notes

  • Having a high base Burn or Burn scaling is a must in order for Flame Skirt to remain viable in the late game.
  • Prioritize upgrading ISO-Belle and Light Drone for the additional Slow targets.
  • Keep an eye out for additional sources of Ammo/Reload in order to fuel Strobe Grenade beyond its initial casts.
  • This build doesn't require any specific skills in order to work, making it easily adaptable if you find the items.

Alternative Items

  • Tuba — Mass Slow triggers at Medium-size, if you can solve its need for Tempo.
  • Jammer — A flexible slot-in and a great counter against Charge spam builds.
  • Cobweb Chibi – Serviceable enough if available at a higher tier than ISO-Belle and/or Light Drone.
