How-To-Play Notes
Draining Slash (S1) is 3 ST HP and splash. Heals self and party if she's full HP.
Call Reinforcements (S2) grants her Azure Behemoth special effect. S2 itself only batteries party but the Azure Behemoth special effect unlocks
Behemoth Bash (after Jihl turns) which is 3 Split HPs.
S2 is her FR charging move, but it will be at 3/5s efficiency due to it being tied to a follow up (similar to Rem/Porom).
Sacrifice Pawn+ (EX) is 7 Split HP attacks when she has her Azure Behemoth special effect. She heals herself and party if she's full HP, inflicts her Daze debuff, and removes her Azure Behemoth Overhead.
Daze: (cannot act, HP DMG taken up 20%, BRV DMG taken up 30%)
Base version is weaker and has no healing. With BT, losing her Azure Behemoth overhead is taken care of.
Full-Scale Assault Orders (LD) is 4 Split HP attacks, batteries party restores 1 use of S1 & S2 and grants her 12 turns of her LD buff and 4T of her Azure Behemoth overhead. It also refills her EX which is very important especially for BT phase.
Malicious Surge (BT) effect allows her Behemoth Bash to trigger twice. If she doesn't have her Azure Behemoth, she will automatically use S2 to give herself the special effect needed.
Note: the BT effect uses S2 outright so in Force Time, this is a +30% FR HP DMG Bonus which incentivizes her EX+ use with BT effect up even more!
BT Phase: S1 -> EX+ -> LD -> S1 -> EX+ -> FR if she's only attacking and has no special EX charging buffs (U4 and Enna Kros LDCA)
If she has U4 and Enna Kros LDCA active, you pray for EX+ every turn and FR on the last turn before the finisher
Request for Turks Cooperation (FR) conditions are:
40% - Melee attack on turn.
40% - HP attacks hit multiple targets
No Party Auras tho. FR attack applies her Daze debuff.
Team Synergy
She's a great all-rounder packing tons of damage to show worthless humans how combat is done. The more upgraded EX uses she can use, the better. U4 and Enna Kros LDCA can enable her EX much more reliably for funny number showcases (still RNG for the refills). This also cuts into her S2 which will limit how much she can race the enemy FR gauge.
You can opt to stick with Raines LDCA and the listed rotation above for more consistent runs instead.
That said, using BT phase to use a couple S2 abilities for help racing the FR gauge is totally fine if the rest of the party can do big damage themselves. Daze keeps enemies from doing anything dangerous on their turns and she can heal if a threshold attack slips by. Get into FR time, pop summon and let her throw hands with this strategy.
A great piece to the White Crystal Room Quests providing damage, utility in her unique Daze buff, some healing and some FR charging if you don't want to solely rely on Braska or Deuce.
