Sphere Recommendations

• A Sphere - BRV DMG is best (even a refined Kuja sphere is fine), but ATK is also great. Tons of options are open for this slot.

• C Sphere - Focus on ATK or battery spheres. Her own or Sherlotta is fine for her, but certainly Alphinaud or Maria is best.

• E Sphere - While Kefka or Seymour are premium for her, those belong on primary damage dealers. Avoid “Debuff Inflicting Spheres” (like Ultimecia or Vincent) at all costs, as the generic debuff is a waste of space.

How-To-Play Notes

• Ascension (S1) is her go-to burst heal and also buff dispel, and is her more battery heavy stance. 

• Descension (S2) is her strong debuff-utility skill, slowing down enemies, and inflicting HP Attack Disable. BT effect will maintain these debuffs.

• Naakual’s Vengeance (EX) is a great burst heal & battery, and charges after just 1 skill use (because Arciela tends to be a bit slower). 

• Unceasing Dread (LD) is her tool to stop enemy BRV gains, while also boosting her own damage. Maintain this on enemies as much as possible to fuel her own damage!

• Ability Recovery is her AA that restores a use of each skill, but also provides useful party auras for a long time

• Dignified Awe (BT) prevents enemies from gaining buffs and provides allies scaling true damage when enemies are debuffed (2% per debuff, up to 16%)

• Happy Cooking (FR) is an instant turn, non-attacking FR. It asks for:

  • Act while an enemy has no buffs on turn: 40%

  • Act while an enemy has debuffs on turn: 40%

  • These are easy to meet thanks to her BT, but offers no HP DMG Limit. Great for getting to 999% if you need FR Retain to win fights of if trying to form a diverse party and need a good FR for all.
