Falin Pros and Strength

Falin's Character Overview

Healing and Shield Utility

Falin has no offensive skills and specializes in supporting allies. Her Trait allows her to grant [Protective Power], which grants Physical Shields whenever she uses a Skill on an ally, allowing her to protect allies from physical attacks while healing and supporting.

Can Grant Numerous Attribute Buffs

In addition to the Physical Shield, her Trait can also grant numerous Attribute Buffs. The buffs granted are random, but with her support every turn, she can grant many buffs, allowing her to consistently boost allies' stats.

Boosts Ally ATK

Although she has no offensive Skills, in addition to the aforementioned Attribute Buffs, she has the (Aura) [Gentle Support] which increases allies' ATK, and [Falin's Blessing], which can grant a wide-area [△DMG II], which increases damage dealt by +20%. These allow her to significantly boost allies' offensive capabilities. Due to her low SPD and Move, prioritize these Skills when challenging bosses or single-targets where movement and positioning is less important.

Powerful But Conditional Skills

Falin can teleport herself along with an ally adjacent to another ally who already has [Protective Power]. Moreover, she has a Reaction that grants [Resolve] to an ally when they are about to be defeated, then swaps positions with them at the cost of 60% of her HP. Although these skills are difficult to use, they have exceptionally powerful effects, so it's important to identify stages and scenarios where you can effectively utilize them.

Adjust Her Build According to the Stage

Falin possesses many Skills that can be effective in specific situations. While securing ways to compensate for her low SPD and Move with support from other characters or Tactical Skills, it is crucial to swap her Skills appropriately depending on the needs of the stage.

Priority Skills

Skill	Priority and Details
Recovery Magic	★★★★★ An easy-to-use healing Skill with a wide range of 3 tiles around self and 0 C. It also restores HP after being attacked, so it's important to use it beforehand. It's easy to grant the Trait's Shield, but since Falin has low SPD and Move, prepare a way for her to catch up to allies.
Adaptive Strike	★★★★★ An excellent Basic Attack that reduces M.DEF. Additionally, when adjacent to an enemy, it gains a Knockback effect, allowing for potential fall kills depending on the situation. Note that it deals Physical DMG when adjacent to the target.
NRG Restoration	★★★★ The additional NRG recovery allows you to use [Recovery Magic] every turn. With star levels, you can grant buffs and Shields every turn. If you can supplement NRG with other characters or Tactical Skills, swap this skill out for another.
Teleportation Magic	★★★★ A skill that teleports Falin along with a character adjacent to an ally who already has [Protective Power]. It's effective in situations requiring movement, but it's difficult to use because it requires granting Protective Power beforehand and Falin, with her low SPD, needs to move to the ally's location.
Gentle Support	★★★★ An Aura that increases the ATK of all allies within 3 tiles. The effect is enhanced when a Shield is granted, making it especially powerful in single-target stages. Be wary of being overrun, as Falin's low SPD makes it difficult to use.
Falin's Blessing	★★★★ An excellent [Instant] skill that "converts debuffs into Attribute Buffs," grants "Immune to Attribute Debuff," and "grants [△DMG II] and heals if no debuffs are present." The ability to grant increased DMG to nearby allies is particularly outstanding and is even more notable when combined with a Shield.

Skill	Priority and Details
Selfless Rescue	★★★ The effect of granting Resolve to an ally is excellent. However, be careful since the HP cost and position swap can result in Falin being surrounded. It is extremely powerful in situations where it is effective against special gimmicks, such as in boss stages. Prioritize equipping it depending on the stage.
Protection of Light	★★★ The DMG mitigation is simple and effective. The other Reaction is powerful in most cases, but can sometimes be difficult to use, so feel free to use this Reaction as needed.
Inner Light	★★★ An easy-to-use Instant NRG Recovery Skill. Useful when deploying characters for whom NRG is important.
Healing Spell	★★ Equip this only when you want to prioritize single-target healing.
Field - Extra	★★ Significantly reduces DMG from AoE attacks, so it can be useful in stages where AoE attacks are prevalent.
Bandage	★ An easy-to-use [Instant] heal, but its priority is low because there are many other Skills you'll want to equip.
Merciful Strike	★ A Basic Attack that synergizes well by increasing healing. However, the other Basic Attack is more useful, so its equip priority is low.
