Xinghe Never Dreams!
Luoyu remembered this guy.
Back in Lost Valley, the two of them had flown a Cloud Dragonfly together. Luoyu had been the pilot, and Xinghe the gunner.

The official website did have a guide written by Fang Chang, but it was vague too, only broadly stating that "experience gains are positively correlated with risk."
In other words, only by constantly courting
