How To Play & Rotation for Hathor

Basic Playstyle

  • Stack Express Delivery Power
  • Enter Emergency Delivery state with the Ultimate
  • Stay on the field while empowered and finish the fight

Stack Express Delivery Power

Hathor stacks her dedicated resource, Express Delivery Power, by leveraging Critical Riposte and her Redirect Skill. The number of stacks significantly increases the ATK bonus during her Ultimate, so building up the gauge beforehand is critical.

Stacks Can Also Be Gained on Defeating a Target

Each time Hathor defeats an enemy, she gains 1 stack of Express Delivery Power. A viable strategy is to whittle down enemy HP with other characters and switch to Hathor only for the kill.

Enter Emergency Delivery State with the Ultimate

Activating her Ultimate transitions her into the 5-second Emergency Delivery state, unlocking her powerful dedicated skill Cyclone Strike. Her DPS is heavily concentrated into these 5 seconds, so activate it during a major opening from the enemy.

Stay on the Field While Empowered and Finish the Fight

The Emergency Delivery state, which unleashes Hathor's maximum DPS, is immediately removed if you swap to another character. After activation, do not switch out and keep Hathor on the field to pour on the attacks.

Hathor Life Skill & Exploration Passive

Earn extra delivery points and Customer Satisfaction

NTE image

Hathor has Life Skills related to City Delivery. Since both delivery points and Customer Satisfaction increase, it's an extremely powerful skill for City Delivery, making it easy to earn high ratings.

How to Do City Delivery and Tips

She can also handle Delivery Proxy

NTE image

Upgrading her Life Skill to Level 5 lets Hathor handle Delivery Proxy once per day. Since you can earn rewards directly without doing the work yourself, it's an extremely convenient skill.

Outstanding for traveling from high places

Hathor's Falling from Heights attack lets her dive diagonally at high speed. Using it from elevated spots lets you cover ground quickly, making it invaluable for descending from high places.

Engine Resonance or Daily Life Conquest are recommended

To maximize Hathor's strengths, "Engine Resonance" and "Daily Life Conquest," which boost DPS while in an empowered state, are especially recommended. They directly enhance CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG, further improving short-burst potential.

The more Awakening Slots, the more stable her playstyle becomes

With more Awakening Slots, she gains more ways to acquire her resource "Express Delivery Power," and you can simultaneously set effects like increased damage based on stack count. Setup time is shortened, allowing her to land powerful attacks more frequently.
