How to play Phainon

Phainon is the currently one of the strongest DPSes in the game. He wants some level of investment, but his options are very wide. Sunday and Cerydra form the core of his premium team, with the last slot being flexible for a sustain (DHPT) or any other buffer (RMC, Tribbie, Bronya etc).
