Kvare Pros and Strength

DoT and Piercing DMG Specialist

Kvare is a character that excels in dealing continuous damage with [Life Loss], as well as Piercing DMG with his other skills. Because these damage types affect the target's HP directly, Kvare is very effective against units with high defences and/or shields.

Unique Roster Debuff

For Kvare, playing around his unique [Roster] debuff is pivotal to playing this character as effectively as possible. By removing and re-applying [Roster], Kvare can deal additional damage as well as self-strengthen.

Hits Multiple Targets

When [This Is the Moment for Rain] is enhanced with the [Wither] passive skill, Kvare can deal Piercing DMG and apply Life Loss over a wide area. Additionally, enemies already affected by [Roster] will receive various debuffs and additional damage.

Cover Kvare with Allies

When aiming to hit as many enemies as possible with Kvare's skills, he will often position himself within the range of multiple enemies. Defend Kvare with skills like Cocoa and Maitha's [Assisting Cover], or mitigate some damage by using [Kvare's Gift].

Effective Even Against Bosses

Kvare alone can apply a large number of numerous debuffs on a single target thanks to [Roster] and [Unforgettable Erosion]. What's more, there are also builds that allow the stacking of [Life Loss], causing large amounts of damage every turn.

Extremely High Damage Potential

By heavily investing into improving Kvare's M.ATK, depending on the build, it is possible to deal tens of thousands of damage by stacking [Life Loss].

Be Wary of Immunities

Kvare's strength lies in his ability to apply a large number of different debuffs, therefore, enemes who that have immunities or dispelling capabilities will make him less effective. While there are only a few examples of enemies that can do this, make sure to pay attention to things like stage mutations and character abilities.

Infectious Attack												Sanctuary Emblem
Skill
Conviction								Wither								Unforgettable Erosion
