GUIDEMechanics and How to Use

At a Glance

A Tremor and Charge Identity that creates Sanctum of Conservation with S3 or defense, giving all allies Shield to hold the line. Blessing of the Obsidian God also improves her own durability; at 100 Blessing, her defense becomes With Each Smite, I Sever Thine Advent! with 3 Attack Weight.

Core Mechanics

  • Sanctum of Conservation: S3 I Sever Thine Advent! and the Defense skill Witness Ye in Silence grant 3 Sanctum of Conservation at Combat Start, up to 5, decreasing by 1 at Turn End. While the Sanctum is active, the following apply. All allies gain Shield equal to (Preservation Potency×2)% of their max HP when using a skill, once per turn, up to 10%. All enemies get −1 to minimum and maximum Speed and take +10% damage from skills that spend Charge Count or special Charge, doubled for skills from Le Noir allies. Le Noir allies gain Offense and Defense Level.
  • Blessing of the Obsidian God: Gains 25 on first appearing in a stage. It increases by (value×5) when she spends Preservation Count or gains it beyond the maximum, up to 30 per turn, and also when an ally with Shield is hit, up to 100. At Turn Start, she gains Shield equal to (value÷5)% of her max HP. At 25 or more, all Coins of her basic attack skills become Unbreakable, and at 40 or more she cannot be staggered, except by forced Stagger.
  • With Each Smite, I Sever Thine Advent!: If Blessing is 100 at Combat Start, her Defense skill activates as this skill (3 Attack Weight; it triggers even against one-sided attacks). It adds Sloth damage based on the number of Promised Nails, up to 45%/90%. After the attack, it spends all Blessing of the Obsidian God and all of the target's Nails, so the Shield and Stagger immunity weaken the next turn. This skill's effect text does not include gaining Sanctum of Conservation. So while Blessing is 100, setting up the Defense skill may not renew the Sanctum, and she has to rely on S3 to maintain it during that time.
  • Preservation and Promised Nails: Each Nail infliction spends 2 Preservation Count; at 12 or more, it spends 4 to inflict +1, and if there is not enough, no Nails are inflicted. Each cumulative 10 spent grants 1 Preservation Potency, and at 3 or more Potency each skill is strengthened. All attack skills except S1 Cometh the Nail, plus her Defense skill, inflict Nails, and each skill also replenishes Preservation Count. The Count balance is always positive, so there is little need to manage it closely.
  • Le Noir allies and follow-ups: Before a Le Noir ally other than herself attacks, she makes a one-sided attack with Judgment!, once per turn. This attack inflicts 1 Promised Nail and 3/4 Tremor, so Preservation Potency builds quickly.
  • Tremor - Conservation: Coin Ⅲ of S3 performs Amplitude Conversion. On Tremor Burst, it deals Sloth damage equal to (60 + attacker's Charge Potency or special Charge ×8)% of Tremor Potency, up to 120%.

How to Use

Open with S3 or her Defense skill to set up Sanctum of Conservation, and maintain it by slipping in S3 or the Defense skill before it runs out (at 100 Blessing, the Defense skill turns into the enhanced skill, so maintain it with S3). Grow Preservation Potency to 3 or more while driving in Nails, and once Blessing reaches 100, hit several enemies at once with the enhanced Defense skill. However, if you know a strong attack is coming the turn after using it, consider holding it. Follow-ups speed up Preservation Potency, so pairing her with Le Noir allies is ideal.
