Florence Nightingale (Santa)'s Strengths
Excellent at Countering High-Difficulty Quest Mechanics
Florence Nightingale (Santa) is a fantastic counter to stage mechanics with her ability to remove enemy buffs, grant Buff Removal Resistance to an ally, and provide a teamwide Debuff Cleanse. Since these counter abilities are tied to her Skills and function well enough at NP Level 1, it's highly recommended to obtain at least one copy from the Leaves of Evocation exchange and level her up for your roster.
Swap Out or Let Her Get Knocked Out After Skill Usage
Florence Nightingale (Santa)'s main role is to buff teammates and cleanse debuffs. It's recommended to swap her out using Order Change or equip her with a Target Focus Craft Essence to have her leave the field, as she provides less value once her skills are on cooldown.
Provides Great Damage Support
Florence Nightingale (Santa) can apply a Defense Down debuff on enemies with her NP and provide damage buffs for teammates using her Skills. Combined with her ability to counter stage mechanics, this makes her a great overall support to slot into any team.
Lacks Powerful Survival Support
While she can provide a targetable Guts buff and teamwide HP restoration, Florence Nightingale (Santa) lacks direct ways to nullify or defend against damage. In longer battles, it's recommended to include a dedicated defensive support in the team to make up for her lack of protective abilities.
Servants with Good Synergy
| Compatible Attackers | |
|---|---|
![]() | Arjuna (Alter) (★5) A top-tier attacker who deals significant damage with a Special Attack against debuffed enemies and has a 30% NP charge. Since Florence Nightingale (Santa) provides versatile support, she pairs well with any attacker. |
| Compatible Supporters | |
![]() | Summer Scáthach-Skadi (★5) A supporter who can provide a 50% NP charge and a powerful Quick buff. She is especially recommended when using Florence Nightingale (Santa) as an attacker. The original Scáthach-Skadi works well in the same way. |
![]() | Zhuge Liang (Lord El-Melloi II) (★5) Provides up to a 50% NP charge, along with ATK buffs. |
![]() | Miss Crane (★5) A supporter who can perform an Order Change with her NP while buffing allies. The Target Focus (Taunt) she grants to another ally makes it easy to swap out Florence Nightingale (Santa) once her support role is complete. |

Recommended Skill Leveling by Priority
Skill 1 | Priority: ★☆☆ You can boost the HP recovery multiplier. It works even unleveled, but raising its level makes reusing the Remove Buffs from all enemies + Remove Debuff (1) from allies easier thanks to the cooldown reduction. |
|---|---|
Skill 2 | Priority: ★★★ You can boost the multipliers of single-target NP Strength up and buff removal resist up. Since it boosts damage, prioritize leveling it up alongside the other skills. At Lv10 the buff removal resist up reaches 100%, so if you use it as a buff-removal countermeasure, aim for Lv10. |
Skill 3 | Priority: ★★★ You can boost the multipliers of ATK + Critical Strength up for all allies. Since it boosts the whole team's damage, level it first. |
