Tressa - Pros and Cons
Powerful Damage with Agony
Tressa is a Combatant who deals powerful damage with Agony. She can inflict fixed damage over time based on the number of Agony stacks on an enemy, and can reliably deal damage even to high-durability enemies.
Low Cost
Tressa is a low-Cost character who has many 0-Cost and 1-Cost Cards. She is easy to pair with high-Cost character and can be effective in a wide range of situations.
The End-of-Turn Damage Is a Drawback
Tressa's Agony triggers at the end of the turn. It's a slight drawback that if you leave an enemy, counting on Agony to defeat them, they might take an action when their count reaches 0.
Tressa - Recommended Team
Hugo Attacker Party
This is a party composition featuring Hugo, who has an ability that triggers when other characters use Cards. His Skill creates daggers, which allow you to smoothly acquire and activate Commence the Hunt.
Low-Cost Team Build
This build uses Cassius to expand your hand size and Mika to maintain an AP surplus for uninterrupted skill usage. With Tressa generating a steady stream of 0-cost Cards, you can reliably complete Cassius's Quest and maintain consistent turn efficiency in high-difficulty runs.
