Momo Pros and Strength

Momo's Character Overview

Mobile AoE Alert

Momo can unlock the ability [Doom Waken] at RK 11. This skill creates an Alert zone around Momo that triggers a devastating single target whenever enemies walk into the zone. This is the only Alert-based ability that lasts for more than one turn and also allows the user to move while it is active.

Compatible with Hunter's Intuition Trinket

The Hunter's Intuition is a trinket that tweaks the effects of Alert skills, triggering any Alert reactions when an enemy performs an action inside the Alert zone. Because [Doom Waken] is treated as an Alert skill, this trinket tweaks the triggering conditions of Doom Waken. Essentially, Momo will attack enemies who move inside her Alert zone, as well as any enemies who try to take actions inside her Alert zone. Any character that performs a buff, a heal, or an attack will be punished with a powerful single target magic attack.

Risk-free Push or Pull

[Repulsion Application] is a skill that Momo can unlock at RK 3. Because this skill is ranged, Momo can choose to push enemies over cliffs, or pull enemies towards her team from a relatively safe distance.

Star Level Up Priority & Recommended Stars for Momo

Aim to Reach 3★ → 5★

Star Level Up Priority	Recommended Star Level
	3★ → 5★

At 3-stars, Momo gains the ability to generate [Repulsion Barrier] every turn, which greatly improves her survivability. At 5-stars, the area affected by her increased damage-over-time effect expands. If you’re not prioritizing Memory Shards for other characters, upgrading her to 5-stars is a solid option.

Priority Skills

Skill	Build Priority and Details
Misfortune Erosion	★★★★★ Easy-to-use AoE attack + Infection-applying Skill. With CD 0, it can be used every turn by replenishing NRG. The AoE attack's damage is low, but considering the damage from instant [Infection], the overall damage is high.
Erosive Force Field	★★★★★ A powerful Reaction that allows unlimited [Strike Back] if you have [Repulsion Barrier] stacks. It also activates the Life Steal effect of [Doom Waken] and the Tarot "The Tower", so you might heal even more than the damage taken.
Invigorating Strike	★★★★★ A Basic Attack that can restore NRG. Since [Misfortune Erosion] consumes a lot of NRG, this Basic Attack is recommended.
Doom Waken	★★★★★ A Skill that grants All-round [Alert] and powerful buffs. This Skill is fundamental to Momo's strength, so prioritize slotting it.
Erosive Power	★★★★ A powerful passive that unconditionally increases damage and applies Infection when attacking. Essentially, equipping this is recommended over [Repulsion Application].
Repulsion Application	★★★★ A choice Skill offering Knockback [Repulsion Purging] and 'Pull-in' [Reverse Repulsion]. It has long range and is very powerful on stages where you can aim for 'fall kills`.

Skill	Build Priority and Details
Field	★★★ An `Aura` that reduces AoE damage. Not always necessary, but viable in high-difficulty stages if you want to withstand enemy AoE attacks.
Dark Ripple	★★★ An AoE attack that nullifies Passives and Reactions. Many enemies nullify it, but there are some situations where it can be effective.
Energy Ray	★★ An easy-to-use single-target attack Skill with no NRG consumption. Viable in single-target battle stages.
Defense (Ranged Attack)	★ Can reduce damage taken from magic or arrows, which are common from Watchers, which Momo is weak to. However, since [Erosive Force Field] is very powerful, you'd only want to equip this when tackling stages with many Ranged attackers.
Hypnotic Attack	★ [Sleep] itself is powerful, but due to the low 30% chance, [Invigorating Strike] is preferable.

Recommended Gear, Tarots, & Engravings

Recommended Weapons for Momo

Starry Sky Heritage

Focus Wand

Cornucopia Staff

We highly recommend the [Starry Sky Heritage], which greatly boosts both HP and magic attack, or the [Focus Wand], which extends the range of Momo's [Alert] Skill by 1 tile. While she does have [Life Steal], keep in mind that the effect of the [Focus Wand] only activates while the user is [Unharmed].

Recommended Trinkets for Momo

Hunter's Intuition

Maverick's Cloak

Crystal Burst Armor

[Hunter's Intuition] is highly recommended, since it boosts the number of uses for her [Alert] Skill. For a more aggressive approach, [Maverick's Cloak] can be viable as Momo tends to position aggressively. If you're looking to make her tougher, [Crystal Burst Armor] is a viable pick for the HP bonus.

Recommended Tarots for Momo

Destruction of The Tower

Silence of The Hermit

Temptation of The Devil

[The Tower] is highly recommended for significantly boosting Alert Skills. If you're prioritizing survivability, equip Tarots like [The Hermit] or [The Devil].

Recommended Engravings for Momo

Resonance	Effect
Wand Wand	After using a [basic attack], [skill], [strike back], or [assisting attack], gains 1 random [Level 2 Attribute Buff].
Sword Wand	Before actively attacking, for each 1 tile traversed, increases ATK and DEF by 4%, up to 12%. The effect lasts until the start of the next turn,
Wand Cup	At the end of the turn, there is a 50% chance to gain [Engraving Resonance]. Effect: When using an [active skill] next time, refunds the NRG consumed and resets the CD. The skill effect has a CD of 4 turns. (Does not trigger in real-time combat. The effect changes to increasing HP, ATK and DEF by 5%)

Since Momo can perform multiple actions throughout a single turn, she can trigger multiple instances of the [Wand + Wand] buffs. You could optionally engrave [Sword + Cup] if you are looking for a more general engraving resonance.
