Dance of Resolute Will Stage 5 Guide – A Vibrant and Lively Melody
Dance of Resolute Will Basics
This event is a mini-combat event. Players have to form two groups of up to four characters to take down the stage's enemies. The goal is to gather as many points as possible in each stage. Players receive rewards for getting 2,000, 4,000, and 6000 points. Getting 6,000 points or more will also reward the player with every lower-tier reward. As such, the goal in each stage is to get at least 6,000 points. To make it easier to get points, this guide will assume that the player will select the Outstanding difficulty, which has a Score Multiplier of x4.
The event has two main gimmicks. The first is that when making a party, players can set one character to appear in both parties. Normally, the player will need to field eight unique characters. In this event, players only need to field seven, with one of them being present in both teams. Players can put any character here and can change their order in the party.
The second gimmick is the Heightened Verve buffs. These are buffs that activate after the player meets each round's Blade Dance objectives. The Blade Dance objectives are different for each party, so players will have to build around them to activate the Heightened Verve buffs. It's also important to note that when Heightened Verve is active, different opponent types will spawn. Defeating said opponents will give the player more points.
Now, let's dive into our guide for Stage 5 of Dance of Resolute Will

Possible Team Composition
Round 1 incentivizes players to run a Quicken, and in turn, an Aggravate or Spread comp. Round 2 is more lenient and wants the player to run a comp that generates Dendro Cores. Here are some possible team compositions for each round.
- Round 1
- Baizhu (Trial or Own)
- Kirara
- Fischl
- Kuki Shinobu
- This is a basic Quicken team composition. Fischl and Shinobu will apply Electro on enemies while they are off-field, while Baizhu and Kirara apply Dendro on enemies, which will apply Quicken, and in turn, Aggravate and Spread. If the player already has prepared teams for Quicken, like those centered around Alhaitham or Cyno, then they can choose to field those instead. Just make sure to place the correct shared character, preferably a Dendro one.
- Round 2
- Baizhu (Trial or Own)
- Kaveh
- Dendro Traveller
- Xingqiu
- As the second round focuses on Bloom teams instead, players can run a team like the one above. Kaveh is especially good for base Bloom teams thanks to his skills. Alternatively, players can also bring along an Electro character like Fischl (if they're not using them in the team above), or a Fire character like Xiangling if they want to do a Hyperbloom or Burgeon team instead. Alternatively, they can double down on Bloom if they have Nilou, as her kit is great for empowering Dendro Cores at its base form.
Of course, these are just the possible team compositions for each round. Should the player have better ideas that work better for them, then there's no harm in using those teams.
