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
Exhaust Build
Tressa generates 0-cost Exhaust Cards, so she has good synergy with Kayron's Brand of Annihilation. Additionally, since the above build is entirely Void, it is also effective against Chaos that is weak to Void.
Best Partner
Bria is Recommended
| Partner | Detail |
|---|---|
Bria | - When a Card is created, Attack Card damage is increased - The first time a debuff Card is created, Attack Card damage is increased - The Ego Skill Exhausts debuff and curse Cards from your Discarded card and increases Attack Card damage based on the number of Cards Exhausted |
Anteia | - Increases HP and damage - When creating a Card, increases Attack Card damage - Deal damage + inflict Vulnerable with Ego Skill |
Eloise | - Increases Attack Card damage - Increases damage the first time you Exhaust a Card or gain a debuff Card - Ego Skill applies debuff to a random enemy when a Card is Exhausted |
Partners that activate an effect when Cards are generated are recommended for Tressa. Tressa has particularly good synergy with Bria, as she can generate many debuff cards at once.
