Overview

Following a brief teaser in the campaign, Gala Chelle debuts as the Shadow roster’s first Manacaster. Much like her brother Leonidas, Chelle achieves peace through superior firepower, burning through Overdrive phases with relative ease. Also like Leonidas, Chelle packs both a new* affliction and a scaling Skill 2. Protected by dual immunity and a plethora of survivability perks, Chelle remains a prime candidate for Legend Kai Yan by greatly reducing Berserk uptime with frequent breaks.

Strengths

Shreds Overdrive Gauges

Rapid-fire Manacasters are already proven to make short work of Overdrive bars, and Chelle’s Ability 3 leans even further into this role. An additional 75% Force Strike bonus is nothing to scoff at, especially during Berserk Legend Kai Yan.

Longevity

Chelle runs three sources of damage mitigation that grant her substantial resilience, especially for a ranged adventurer:

Royal Pride stacks
Buff zone
Skill 2 enemy STR reduction

Dual Immunity

In keeping with Gala tradition, Chelle completely resists any afflictions Light content can throw at her, solidifying her Kai Yan viability.

Weaknesses

Royal Pride Stacking

15,000+ SP is no small fee, and Chelle requires at least five Skill 2 casts before she can self-enable the buff zone aspects of her kit.

Capped Buff Scaling

CyGames has learned from the Karina fiasco and has capped Chelle’s Skill 1 scaling to 15 buffs, thus insulating her from Doublebuff insanity.

Forced Cat Sith Shapeshift

Akin to Leonidas’s Shapeshift into Mars, Chelle’s dragon form is predetermined, preventing her from using other dragons’ active skills

Dragon Recommendations

Fatalis

Andromeda

Giovanni

Fatalis gives the highest raw STR boost, but discourages Shapeshifting.

Andromeda is comparable to Fatalis if players can maintain her HP threshold.

Giovanni’s Crit Rate scales well with Chelle’s rapid attack rate.

Weapon Recommendations

Wanli Qi Yunyan

Curse Trigger

Chimeratech Cantata
