Devil's Blood: Curse
A powerful Psyche DPS set that provides massive unconditional DMG bonuses. The base 18% DMG bonus is always active regardless of conditions, and doubles to 36% against reaction-affected targets. Ideal for Psyche characters in teams that consistently apply Nova or Stain.

DMG +18%. Increases to +36% against enemies affected by Nova or Stain reactions.
Set Analysis
Devil’s Blood: Curse is the Psyche element’s dedicated DPS set, offering one of the highest unconditional damage bonuses among all cartridge sets. The 2-piece provides 10% Psyche DMG, while the 4-piece grants a permanent 18% DMG bonus that doubles to 36% against enemies affected by Nova (Chaos + Psyche) or Stain (Psyche + Lakshana).
The key distinction is that the 18% base bonus requires no conditions at all — it’s always active. This makes Devil’s Blood: Curse viable even in teams that don’t consistently trigger Nova or Stain. When the conditional is met, 36% DMG is one of the largest single-source damage bonuses available from any cartridge set.
DMG% bonuses are additive with other DMG% sources (Awakening bonuses, Arc passives), so characters with fewer existing DMG% buffs benefit more from this set. For Psyche characters building as sub-DPS or burst damage dealers, this set provides the highest damage ceiling.
Best Characters
Fadia (A-Tier, DPS Build)
When building Fadia for damage rather than pure tanking, Devil’s Blood: Curse amplifies her Psyche burst significantly. Her teams naturally include Lakshana (for Stain) or Chaos (for Nova) characters, ensuring the 36% bonus is frequently active.
Haniel (B-Tier, Sub-DPS Build)
Haniel can utilize this set for a hybrid support/damage build. However, Speedy Hedgehog is generally preferred for pure support since Haniel’s primary value is ATK buffing rather than personal damage.
