Chen has the lowest Intellect stat out of all units at 85 when at level 90. This is important for players building Chen to consider when selecting essence setups and skill priorities, as lower Intellect may affect certain ability scaling or interactions.
Ardelia has high SP consumption - uses too much SP for comfortable gameplay. Consider SP support operators like Gilberta when using Ardelia in teams.
Gilberta is a strong support unit with clean skills and powerful buffs. She excels at pulling enemies together (crowd control) and significantly increases team damage output. Works particularly well with Yvonne. Recommended to pull if you need support for damage-focused teams. Consider having 120 pulls for guaranteed acquisition due to 50/50 risk.
If all of the essences are completely compatible with your weapon, it will start to glow. This visual indicator confirms optimal essence setup.
Guard units (GuardKnights) scale well with the agility attribute. When building guards or selecting weapons/essence for them, prioritize agility stats for optimal performance.
Rossi's Battle Pass weapon is effective on Chen as well, indicating weapon sharing compatibility between these Guard units. Both characters benefit from agility-focused weapon stats.
GuardKnights scale well with agility attribute. Rossi's BP weapon also works effectively for Chen. If planning to save Arsenal Tickets for Battle Pass weapons for new factory girls, pre-farm the required Essence beforehand.
Rossi's kit includes the ability to convert arts infliction into physical vulnerability on enemies. This makes her a staple pick for physical damage teams, amplifying physical DPS output when arts debuffs are applied.
Surtr's passive ability is bugged, causing her to die frequently in the second stage of content. Players experiencing unexpected deaths with Surtr should be aware this is a known bug rather than a build or strategy issue.
Laevatain works at P0 (0 ascension). Her Ultimate is her main value for AoE mob clearing. At P0, she needs 2 Battle Skills to reach 4 Melting Flame stacks to fully recharge energy. Ultimate Energy carries over between fights, but Melting Flame stacks do not. Weakness: damage feels low when Ultimate is down. For farming, mobs may die before Ultimate ends, leaving you with 4 stacks but no targets. Next fight starts with 0 Ultimate Energy. Weapon: Forgeborn Scathe (sig) gives Heat DMG +16% and Basic Attack DMG +75% for 20s after Ultimate. Umbral Torch is a reasonable alternative. Gear: Hot Work set is most practical - Arts Intensity +30, Heat DMG +60% for 8s when applying Combustion. Important: Laevatain cannot gain SP while Ultimate is active.
