Pros

Elite multi-target clear
Alert and off-turn pressure
End-of-action follow-ups add free damage
High ceiling with correct sequencing

How to use

She punishes mis-sequencing more than most SSS units. Set Alert states before the enemy turn, then spend her active cascade when packs are clumped. Pair with Act Again supports so she can both set and cash out in the same cycle.

Skill table

Priority stars are SoC Wiki recommendations for general PvE. NRG/CD values are approximate guide bands—confirm in-game for patches.

Skill	Type	NRG	CD	Priority	Notes
End Follow-up Cascade	Passive	—	—	★★★★★	End-of-action follow-up — core loop Design turns so her action end triggers the follow-up into remaining targets. This is a large part of her multi-target DPS.
AoE Cascade	Active	2–3	1–2	★★★★★	Main clear active Spend on packed tiles. Combine with Alert Matrix so residual enemies still take chip on their turn.
Alert Matrix	Reaction	—	—	★★★★★	Off-turn Alert engine Default reaction for the kit's identity. Do not swap to generic magic wards unless the stage forces it.
Focus Mark	Active	1–2	1	★★★★★	Setup mark for prioritization Use to paint the kill target when packs are uneven or a boss add must die first.
SP Arc Bolt	Basic	0	—	★★★★★	Basic filler that still feeds end-follow patterns Acceptable on low-NRG turns; still try to end actions in positions that enable follow-ups.
