Pros & Cons for Kikoru Shinomiya (The Valkyrie's Successor)
Extra Attack & 2-Attribute Attacker
Kikoru is a 2-Attribute (Slash/Wind) Attacker who can use Blast Attacks of both Attributes with her Combat Skill and Ultimate, making it easier to reduce enemy PLT. She is also the first character to have both an Extra Attack and an Enhanced Ultimate.
Has an Enhanced Ultimate
Kikoru can activate her Enhanced Ultimate when Momentum reaches its maximum stacks. She gains 4 stacks when her own Ultimate is activated, 1 stack when an ally's Extra Attack is activated, and 2 stacks at the start of battle, for a maximum of 10 stacks.
Build a team with characters who have Extra Attacks to efficiently stack Momentum.
| Note! | Thanks to a Passive Skill effect, activating the Enhanced Ultimate also counts as activating an Extra Attack, granting 1 Momentum stack. |
|---|
Extra Attack Activated at 2 or More Devotion Stacks
Kikoru can activate an Extra Attack using her Combat Skill or Ultimate when Devotion has 2 or more stacks.
Devotion also increases the damage Multiplier of her Extra Attacks. She gains 1 stack during her own turn, 2 stacks before activating her Ultimate, and an additional 2 stacks before activating her Enhanced Ultimate, up to a maximum of 6 stacks.
