Character

Description

Carmen (Defender / Moon)

You’ll find Carmen as the ultimate frontliner. She uses Provoke to pull all enemy attacks onto herself while dealing damage that scales with her max HP. Her insane durability (HP: 25,109, 2nd highest; Def: 1,727, 3rd) makes gearing her effortless. In PvE, she lets your team play aggressively by soaking hits, and her hybrid tank-DPS style fits every boss fight—pair her with buffers to dominate.

Sayla (Striker / Order)

Sayla speeds up your team’s tempo as a buffer-DPS. She gives allies attack buffs and action gauge boosts while earning extra turns herself to keep the pressure on. Her ultimate adds self-attack and speed buffs and slows enemies, giving you excellent action economy. With high attack (4,315, 2nd) and solid speed, she’s perfect for bursting waves or bosses.

Charles (Striker / Sun)

Charles amps up crit-based offense. She boosts crit rate and attack for allies or herself, grants extra turns, and accelerates ultimate gauges for multiple actions. Her kit shines in sustained, multi-turn fights. High attack potential makes her a core carry; equip crit Arcana to maximize team-wide damage spikes in story and trials.

Dana (Caster / Star)

Dana strengthens attackers by buffing the highest-ATK ally, often herself, while delivering strong AOE with her ultimate. She stays useful for single-target damage too, so she never sits idle. She’s perfect for wave-clearing PvE, and ATK/Vitality tags make her clears even more explosive.

Elisa (Supporter / Chaos)

Elisa keeps your team alive with revivals and single-target heals, which work best with tanks to redirect threats. Not ideal for pure AOE fights, but her massive HP (25,366, 1st) ensures she survives. She’s essential for high-risk boss fights and sustain comps.

Frey (Supporter / Star)

Frey stabilizes your team with single-target and overall heals, debuff cleanses, and shields. She can carry teams through attrition battles. Her balanced stats (HP: 25,109, 2nd; Def: 1,727, 3rd) let her hold the frontline. Being a free launch unit, she’s mandatory—nothing else packs her utility.

Smile (Ranger / Star)

Smile can almost act twice per turn when conditions trigger, stacking 100% fixed defense debuffs on her ultimate to boost team DPS. She rewards careful rotations, making her perfect for speed-kill strategies. Focus on speed and ATK to unlock boss one-shots.

Luna (Caster / Order)

Luna makes normal attacks hit AOE, while her special and ultimate boost AOE damage further. Her ultimate also binds enemies, creating debuff synergy. She dominates mob-heavy stages and rules AOE content and you can max her skill levels for full power.

Acela (Striker / Moon)

Acela offers reliable AOE through her special and ultimate and buffs crit rate and speed for consistent output. She needs support for single-target fights but works in mixed encounters. Building speed and crit turns her into a true carry.

Character

Description

Lacey (Ranger / Chaos)

You’ll use Lacey for her ultimate, “Tangled Dream,” which applies a 10% attack debuff. Her reliability is limited by attachment options and early probabilistic uptime, but she stacks well for sustained pressure. She’s a niche debuff enabler, so upgrading her skills is key.

Kira (Assassin / Sun)

Kira avoids enemy targeting with “Lurk” when allies are present, redirecting attacks to your frontliners while cutting enemy action gauges. She excels at battlefield control and works best paired with tanks. She’s your go-to for boss manipulation.

Epindel (Assassin / Moon)

Epindel thrives on spamming normal skills, enhanced by extra turns and special/cool stacks from her ultimate. Her full passive needs serious investment, but she becomes a turn-grinder specialist. Early investment pays off in scaling power.

Ede (Defender / Star)

Ede takes partial enemy damage for allies and adds shields plus hit debuffs, with a defense-scaling ultimate. Balanced HP and defense make her a reliable shared-damage tank for elite content.

Serpent (Supporter / Sun)

Serpent can nullify skill damage once per ally or herself with her ultimate and automatically heals the lowest HP teammate. Timing is crucial, but she’s a clutch survival tool for risky fights.

Trish (Assassin / Star)

Trish resets ultimate cooldown on kills while stacking crit damage and buffing her own crit rate/attack. She’s perfect for burst chains and shines in arena or PvE. Build her crit-heavy to maximize her finisher potential.

Character

Description

Tanya (Striker / Star)

Tanya spreads crit rate across your team with her special, while gaining action and attack buffs herself. She breaks enemy toughness at 5 jump stacks, making her a stack-builder DPS and a solid mid-game buffer.

Lily (Caster / Moon)

Lily brings attack-scaling shields and applies attack debuffs for defense. She lacks diverse buffs for full DPS support but works well as a sustain caster and shield meta filler.

Harley (Defender / Sun)

Harley scales special and ultimate damage with speed and normal attacks with attack, while adding a lone defense buff and ignite stacks to allies. She’s a speed-tilted tank with niche scaling potential.

Petra (Ranger / Sun)

Petra uses ignite stacks to ramp up enemy defense debuffs, starting at a minimum of 20%, and applies 2 stacks to herself via special. She’s your go-to debuff ramp-up and ignite enabler.

Lydia (Ranger / Chaos)

Lydia lowers enemy effect resist (via special, 100% nova), gaining action and damage boosts against debuffed foes. She’s condition-dependent but excels as a resist breaker.

Muriel (Caster / Sun)

Muriel scales her special damage based on enemy debuff count and extends debuffs by 1 turn, though early uptime can be probabilistic. She’s a debuff extender—invest for consistency.

Lou (Ranger / Moon)

Lou applies a speed freeze probabilistically on normal attacks, increases enemy skill cooldowns with her ultimate, and adds a defense debuff. She focuses on delay and control, making her a valuable freezer utility.

Vesta (Defender / Star - SR)

Vesta scales all attacks to her max HP, debuffs enemy attacks, and buffs her own defense. She’s the top F2P tank outside of SSRs—a reliable HP-scaling wall.

Bella (Supporter / Moon - SR)

Bella provides a single-target heal with one debuff cleanse, plus an AOE heal and random buffs if allies are buffed. She’s the only SR healer, offering basic sustain and a F2P must-have.

Character

Description

Claire (Assassin / Moon - SR)

Claire stacks actions with speed and action buffs, adding a self-attack nova to secure hand-count wins. She’s your go-to action spammer and a speedy harasser.

Clarissa (Ranger / Star - SR)

Clarissa controls speed with buffs and debuffs, while her crit stats deliver solid damage. She excels as a speed controller and crit-focused filler.

Anna (Defender / Sun - SR)

Anna self-heals to maintain sustained tanking, holding your lines reliably. She’s simple, durable, and a strong early wall.

Naru (Ranger / Star - SR)

Naru boosts her own attack while lowering enemy speed and resist, dealing extra damage to debuffed targets. She’s a debuff synergist and a conditional DPS option.

Character

Description

Marsil (Assassin / Sun - SR)

Marsil triggers extra actions on crits with a passive rate boost, adding burn and attack buffs. Early crits can be unreliable, making him a crit chaser but a weak starter.

Scarlet (Striker / Sun - SR)

Scarlet depends on ultimate burn to boost special damage, though her HP-scaling passive conflicts with DPS needs. She’s a burn-focused striker but somewhat mismatched.
