Ardelia Strategy Guide
Basic Strategy
- Heal Allies with Battle Skill
- Inflict Susceptibility
- Use Ultimate for Burst Healing
Heal Allies with Battle Skill
Activating her Battle Skill creates Mr. Dolly's shadows which heal the active character when touched. The individual amount healed is low, but since 3 shadows are generated per Battle Skill, a decent amount of recovery is possible.
Healing Scales with Will
The amount of HP recovered by touching Mr. Dolly's shadows increases with Will. Ardelia's Main stat is Intellect, but if you want to improve her healing, prioritize increasing her Will over Intellect.
Inflict Susceptibility
Inflict Corrosion with a Combo Skill, then use a Battle Skill to convert the Corrosion status into Physical Susceptibility and Arts Susceptibility to boost ally damage. The Combo Skill can be activated by hitting an enemy not affected by a Physical Status or Arts Reaction with a Final Strike.
Be Aware of the Combo Skill's Time Lag
Be aware of the lag between using the Combo Skill and the Corrosion application. If you use the Battle Skill too soon, the Susceptibility effects will not be inflicted. When an enemy has been inflicted with Corrosion, then the Battle Skill icon will start pulsating, designating the window in which you can apply Susceptibility.
Use Ultimate for Burst Healing
Ardelia's Ultimate creates a large number of Mr. Dolly's shadows while performing an AoE attack. Even though you have to pick them up, the total amount of healing is extremely high, so don't hesitate to use it in emergencies.
 Tips! | Ardelia can move while she is channelling her Ultimate, allowing her to move to a safer location in times of emergencies. |

Ardelia Best Teams
Laevatain Team Comp
Ardelia is a highly versatile character who can except in different team comps. Pairing her with Laevatain is recommended due to her Corrosion. This allows her to meet the activation condition for the combo skill, giving her better synergy than other healers.
Beginner / F2P Team
| Support | Main | Sub | Sub |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ardelia | Endministrator | Chen Qianyu | Perlica |
This Physical Team is entirely made of only free characters. In Endfield, HP recovery during combat is limited so including one healer in the team is recommended.

Ardelia Best Gear Build
- For blue Gear, use the "Mordvolt Resistant"
- For purple Gear, also use the "Mordvolt Resistant"
- For gold Gear, use "Eternal Xiranite"
Ardelia's Main stat is Intellect and her Secondary stat is Will, but we recommend prioritizing Will, which affects her healing amount, over Intellect. Choose Gear that increases Ultimate efficiency while securing Will with the Mordvolt Resistant set.

The recommended Gear after obtaining Ferrium Ore is the Mordvolt Resistant set. Increase Will and improve healing ability with the Set Effect. If you want to focus on damage dealt, the Mordvolt Insulation set, which increases Intellect, is also a good option.

For purple Gear, the Mordvolt Resistant set, which increases Will and Intellect, is also recommended. By equipping Miner Fists T1 as the Arm Gear, you can further increase the necessary stats.

For gold Gear, the Eternal Xiranite set is recommended. It improves her support capabilities because she can increase the entire team's damage when applying Susceptibility. For the Chest Gear, the LYNX Cuirass is recommended as it increases Intellect and Will, while also boosting Treatment Efficiency.
