Hiyuki and Denia’s leaked signature weapons are not competing in the same way.
Hiyuki’s weapon, Scorching Frost, looks like a clean signature sword built around her Glacio identity and burst damage window. Denia’s weapon, Pseudo Dwarf Star, is much stranger: a cosmic-looking Rectifier with an effect that may offer more than just personal damage.
If you only care about character aesthetics, Hiyuki’s weapon is the easier sell. It looks made for her. But if you care about account value, weapon uniqueness, and future team impact, Denia’s weapon is the one that currently looks harder to ignore.
The safest early verdict is this: Hiyuki’s weapon is the better “main character” pull, while Denia’s weapon may be the more important weapon to watch before Version 3.3 goes live.
Quick Verdict: Hiyuki Weapon or Denia Weapon?
If you are pulling based on character loyalty, choose Hiyuki’s Scorching Frost.
If you are pulling based on weapon value, choose Denia’s Pseudo Dwarf Star only after her final kit confirms how important the weapon passive is.
If you only have enough resources for one weapon, Denia’s weapon currently has the stronger argument because it is a Rectifier, appears more specialized, and may have team-related value. Hiyuki’s weapon looks excellent, but it may be easier to replace if you already own a strong sword.
Hiyuki’s Signature Weapon: Scorching Frost
Scorching Frost is not interesting because it is flashy. It is interesting because it is direct.
The leaked effect points toward three things: ATK increase, Glacio-related amplification, and Resonance Liberation damage gaining DEF ignore after applying Glacio Chafe. That tells us this weapon is probably built around Hiyuki’s own damage pattern instead of being a general sword for every character.
In other words, Scorching Frost does not look like a random premium sword. It looks like a weapon designed to push Hiyuki’s Glacio burst window harder.
That is the real selling point.
If Hiyuki’s final gameplay revolves around stacking or applying Glacio Chafe before entering a high-damage Liberation window, then her weapon may become a major part of her best setup. The DEF-ignore part is especially important because that kind of effect can be much harder to replace than a simple ATK or Crit bonus.
Why Hiyuki’s Weapon Works Visually
Hiyuki’s weapon also works because the design does not fight the character.
It goes for a clean sword / katana-like direction instead of a crowded fantasy design. That matters because Hiyuki’s visual identity already leans cold, sharp, and controlled. A noisy weapon would make her look less focused. Scorching Frost does the opposite: it makes her look more complete.
The appeal is not “this sword looks expensive.” The appeal is that another sword may work mechanically, but may not look like it belongs to her.
That is why Hiyuki mains will probably care about this weapon even before final calculations come out. If you are building Hiyuki as a long-term main, Scorching Frost is not just a stat upgrade. It is the weapon that sells her whole character fantasy.
The Problem With Hiyuki’s Weapon
The weakness of Scorching Frost is also clear: it may be too tied to Hiyuki.
If the final passive requires consistent Glacio Chafe application, the weapon may lose value on sword characters who cannot use that condition properly. That makes it less flexible than a generic Crit sword.
There is also the weapon-category issue. Sword users usually have more usable alternatives than Rectifier users. If your account already has a strong sword, Scorching Frost may become a luxury pull unless Hiyuki is one of your main characters.
So the question is not “is Hiyuki’s weapon good?”
The better question is: are you actually building Hiyuki deeply enough to justify a weapon that may be designed mainly for her?
Denia’s Signature Weapon: Pseudo Dwarf Star
Denia’s Pseudo Dwarf Star is the more unusual weapon.
The leaked effect mentions ATK increase, Resonance Liberation DMG Bonus, and an additional ATK increase for a team character when Fusion Burst Effect or Tune Strain Response - Deviation is applied. The exact numbers are not final, but the structure of the passive is already important.
This does not read like a purely selfish weapon.
If the final version keeps this direction, Pseudo Dwarf Star may give Denia personal value while also interacting with team damage conditions. That makes it more interesting than a normal damage stick.
It also fits Denia’s expected identity better than a generic Rectifier would. Denia is not being framed as a simple straightforward DPS. Her weapon effect already suggests something more conditional, reactive, and system-based.
Why Denia’s Weapon Is Getting More Attention
Pseudo Dwarf Star stands out because it looks strange.
It does not read like a normal Rectifier. The design has a cosmic, distorted, almost unsettling feeling. It feels closer to a collapsed star, a strange research object, or something connected to Denia’s deeper theme than a clean combat weapon.
That is why it creates a stronger reaction than Hiyuki’s sword.
Hiyuki’s weapon is easy to like. Denia’s weapon is harder to process. It may look too busy to some players, but that is also why it is memorable. It is not just “pretty.” It has identity.
For a signature weapon, that matters. A good signature weapon should not look interchangeable. Pseudo Dwarf Star looks like it belongs to one character and one story.
Why Denia’s Weapon May Have Higher Value
The bigger reason to watch Denia’s weapon is the weapon type.
Denia uses Rectifier, and strong Rectifier options can be more account-dependent. If you do not already have a strong premium Rectifier, Pseudo Dwarf Star may fill a more important gap than Hiyuki’s sword.
The leaked passive also looks more flexible in theory because it may involve team-side ATK value, not only Denia’s personal damage. That does not automatically make it overpowered, but it gives the weapon a higher ceiling if Denia’s final kit is built around these conditions.
This is the key difference:
Scorching Frost looks like it makes Hiyuki better.
Pseudo Dwarf Star may make Denia better while also affecting how her team functions.
That is why Denia’s weapon is the one to watch more closely.
Hiyuki vs Denia Weapon Comparison
Which Weapon Should You Not Skip?
For Hiyuki mains, Scorching Frost is the weapon that should not be skipped. It matches her design, appears tied to her Glacio Chafe gameplay, and may push her burst damage through Liberation DEF ignore.
For broader account value, Pseudo Dwarf Star is the more important weapon to track. It is a Rectifier, it has a more unusual passive structure, and it may offer team-side value depending on Denia’s final kit.
So the answer depends on what you mean by “worth.”
If you mean the weapon that best completes a character, it is Hiyuki’s weapon.
If you mean the weapon with more potential account impact, it is Denia’s weapon.
If you mean the weapon that will stay more memorable, it is also Denia’s weapon.
Should You Pull Hiyuki’s Scorching Frost?
Pull Hiyuki’s weapon if you are serious about using her as a main damage dealer.
The leaked effect is too connected to Glacio Chafe and Resonance Liberation to treat it as just a cosmetic weapon. If Hiyuki’s final kit fully supports those conditions, Scorching Frost may be a major part of her best setup.
Skip it if you only want Hiyuki casually, already have a strong sword, or are not planning to build around her burst window.
Hiyuki’s weapon looks strong for Hiyuki. It does not yet look like the kind of universal sword every account must chase.
Should You Pull Denia’s Pseudo Dwarf Star?
Denia’s weapon is worth watching more carefully.
The passive structure is more interesting because it may connect Denia’s own damage with team conditions. If Denia’s kit wants Fusion Burst Effect or Tune Strain Response - Deviation active often, Pseudo Dwarf Star could become much more valuable than a normal Rectifier.
The main risk is that the weapon may be highly conditional. If those conditions are easy to maintain, the weapon value rises. If they are awkward or too Denia-specific, it becomes less flexible.
Do not judge this weapon only by its strange appearance. The effect text is the real reason it may matter.
