Operator Overview
“I'm Cliffheart, the one who dreams to touch the sky! That's right, I'm really talented.”
Despite being Infected with Oripathy, Cliffheart retains a cheerful demeanor and wants nothing more than to bring the SilverAsh family closer together. She is a 5★ Pull Specialist who can Shift enemies by Pulling them with her climbing tools. Although she is a physical melee damage dealer, she can be deployed on Ranged Grids as well.
The primary reason for using Shift Operators is their ability to forcibly move enemies into holes or pits in the ground, instantly killing them. Cliffheart’s first Skill, Chain Hook, gets the job done by pulling the target towards her and adding extra Arts damage. Her second skill, Binding Chains, provides a jump in utility, as it enables her to pull multiple targets and does DEF- and RES-ignoring damage while stunning for a short time. This makes Cliffheart one of the few Operators with DEF/ RES-ignoring damage. The drawback with Skill 2 is that it has a much longer cooldown than Skill 1, so which is better to use depends on the frequency and group size of enemy spawns.
The only real drawback of Cliffheart is that her higher rarity and damage potential doesn’t make her better at the core job of Pulling, meaning lower-rarity Operators can satisfy the core requirements (albeit while offering less utility) at cheaper Deployment and investment costs. That being said, Cliffheart is obtained for free via the starter rewards, and she has a very fluffy tail and a cool hat, meaning many players will love having Cliffheart as their team’s main Puller.
Newbie Tier List Explanation
Gets the pulling job done and S2 provides some unique range and utility. Rope does the job just as well, though, and is cheaper to develop.
Skill Discussion
 |
S2M3 | B- | B+ | None |
Pullers are in an awkward spot, and Cliffheart is no exception, but her S2M3 is shockingly powerful. A 3 second stun on a 15 second cooldown is already good, then she gains very rare True Damage on top of it. The skill even maintains its value in a post-Gladiia world. She's a tough unit to use effectively though and Advanced players will find quite a bit more value here than Story players will. Don't bother at all with regards to the Roguelike as shifting has very little value there.

Profile
Cliffheart is a Rhodes Island Operator who was born in Kjerag. She is a specialist in rock and mountain climbing and is proficient with all kinds of climbing tools. Currently she is undergoing treatment for Oripathy at Rhodes Island.

Archive File 1
Increase Trust to 50.Cliffheart is a natural explorer and climber. Her reflexes and endurance far exceed what normal people could think possible. With even the simplest of items, Cliffheart is capable of traversing obstacles that would stop most people in their tracks. Cliffheart is more comfortable using her climbing instruments than a traditional melee weapon. Even on the battlefield, she uses these tools as weapons. Don't question the power of her snow spade or ice pick - in the hands of the right person, even instruments such as these can be lethal.
Archive File 2
Increase Trust to 100.While attempting to climb the holy mountain, Cliffheart was pierced by an Originium stone during an unexpected landslide and thus became Infected. Fortunately, most of the people of Kjerag hold no prejudice against the Infected, and Cliffheart still managed to lead a normal life. Still, in order to make the Originium crystals on her body not appear so conspicuous, she takes clever steps to hide it. Thus, even outside Kjerag, she is free to move as she pleases.
Archive File 3
Increase Trust to 150.As a member of the Silverash Family, she garners a lot of attention despite not appearing as elite as her older brother and sister. Unlike her siblings, she is not bound by any official position and thus is free to speak. Therefore, she often mingles with the common people, listening to their stories, learning about their lives, and studying their skills. She then uses these things she's learned to contribute to her clan.
Archive File 4
Increase Trust to 200.Whatever peace the Silverash Family had came to an end when Pramanix was anointed saint. SilverAsh could no longer interacted with Cliffheart in the open, and Pramanix couldn't communicate with either of them because of her newfound official position. This made Cliffheart furious, but she understood that there was no way for the three of them to be as they once were. There was nothing she could do to fix the situation, and this feeling of helplessness made her disheartened for the first time in her life. Still, if there were anything she could do to reunite with her brother and sister, she gladly do what it takes.
Promotion Record
Upgrade to Elite LV2.Cliffheart seems to always instill feelings of cheer and optimism in those she meets, though her soul burns with the desire to inflict mischief. If you bite into a piece of cake only to find it full of beans, or your employee card has gone missing, there's a high probability that Cliffheart is responsible. If not, then she'll likely find out who is. Making mischief and exposing other mischief makers are two of her favorite pastimes.
