Tank, Radiant Star

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 as an emergency protector when your main tank cannot cover every hit.

How to build her

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

Building a Tank

Stack HP and damage reduction. She survives the opening burst so the damage slots have time to ramp.

Holds the frontline with shields, damage reduction, or damage redirection.

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. · Energy down
