S tier in practice

Clear role players

Strong when the team supports what they do, average when it does not.

When to use her

Use her in a debuff-heavy lineup, especially with Poison or Burn appliers.

How to build her

Role-level guidance, not datamined multipliers. The role decides what she needs before any single character quirk does.

Building a Debuff

Stack effect damage and keep the status applied. She needs a fight long enough for Burn, Poison, or Fracture to tick.

Applies Poison, Burn, or other status effects and turns them into damage.

What to build first

Keep the debuff applied. The debuff carries the damage, so the numbers behind it matter less.

Based on the tags above and on her role. This site does not datamine skill multipliers, so read this as a priority order, not a skill tree. · Debuff follow-up
