L'Arachel

Weapon: Ivaldi (+Eff) / Drifting Grace+ (+Spd) / Flora Guide+ (+Spd)

Assist: Positional Assist

Special: Moonbow / Ruptured Sky

Passive A: Atk/Spd Boosting A Slot 

Passive B: Desperation / S/R Far Trace 

Passive C: Atk/Spd Menace / Res Smoke 

Sacred Seal: Atk/Spd Solo / Blade Session

• L’Arachel’s high range and decent, albeit outclassed base offenses make a Player Phase initiator role a natural and strong pick for the Princess of Light.
• Ivaldi effectively grants +8/3/11/8 during combat, while Spd-refined Drifting Grace and Flora Guide effectively grant +5/7 Atk/Spd. While Ivaldi grants more raw damage and bulk, the extra Spd control that Drifting Grace and Flora Guide provide may be more worthwhile.
• With no Special acceleration, cooldown reduction, or charge, low-cooldown Specials such as Moonbow and Ruptured Sky are ideal for frequent and consistent Special activations whenever possible.
• Atk/Spd Boosting A Slots maximize L’Arachel’s damage output, making them her strongest choices. Atk/Spd Catch 4 is particularly worth noting, potentially granting +9 Atk/Spd during combat if the enemy’s HP = 100% and they have visible debuffs.
• Allowing L’Arachel to perform her follow-up before the enemy can counterattack if her HP is ≤ 75%, Desperation is particularly potent because it allows her to circumvent her bulk and aim for 2HKOs. Alternatively, S/R Far Trace inflicts -3 Spd/Res during combat and grants L’Arachel her remaining movement after her first combat, Assist usage, or broken structure, increasing her mobility and overall flexibility.
• Atk/Spd Menace grants L’Arachel +6 Atk/Spd while inflicting -6 Atk/Spd on the nearest enemies within four spaces, making it a fantastic choice for increased damage, Spd control, and survivability pre-Desperation (or if not using Desperation at all). A more budget-friendly option for higher damage output is Res Smoke, which simply inflicts -7 Res on enemies within two spaces of the target after combat.
• Atk/Spd Solo and Blade Session are go-to Sacred Seals for any offensive set, as the former grants +6 Atk/Spd during combat if L’Arachel is not adjacent to any ally while the latter grants +3, +6, or +9 Atk/Spd on initiation if zero, one, or at least two allies have already moved respectively.

Weapon: Ivaldi (+Eff) / Drifting Grace+ (+Spd)

Assist: 400 SP Assists (Dual Rally / Rally Up+)

Special: 500 SP Specials (Ruptured Sky / Aether / Blue Flame)

Passive A: B Duel Cavalry 4

Passive B: Chill Def/Res 3 / Ruse Skills

Passive C: Atk/Spd Menace / Joint Drive Atk / Flexible 

Sacred Seal: Atk/Spd Solo / Chill Res / Flexible

• L’Arachel’s Coliseum score increases every 100 SP her skills (in total) cost. At the time of writing, Chill Def/Res 3 is the only inheritable, 300 SP B Slot, which pushes L’Arachel’s maximum SP from 2380 to 2440. As this skill is rather inaccessible, this set will be split into two sections: 2400-2440 SP total and 2300-2380 SP total.
• Regardless of which SP total players aim for, 400 SP Assists, 500 SP Specials, and B Duel Cavalry 4 are necessities for high Coliseum scoring (especially the latter, as it treats L’Arachel’s BST as if it were 180 for scoring purposes).
• 2400-2440 SP:
  • As aforementioned, requires Chill Def/Res 3, as without a 300 SP B Slot, L’Arachel’s maximum SP cost is 2380.
  • L’Arachel’s C Slot also needs to cost 300 SP. Strong options include Atk/Spd Menace and Joint Drive Atk, with the former increasing L’Arachel’s offenses and lowering the offenses of the nearest enemy/enemies within four spaces and the latter granting L’Arachel and allies within two spaces +4 Atk during combat. Generally, though, L’Arachel’s C Slot is flexible and can be changed to best fit her team or a player’s preferences.
  • Because there is no difference between 200 SP and 240 SP Sacred Seals for scoring purposes (as the former results in a 2400 SP cost total while the latter results in a 2440 SP cost total), L’Arachel has a wide variety to choose from. How much this matters is…debatable, though, as the best Sacred Seals (such as Atk/Spd Solo and Blade Session for stronger damage output or Chill skills for support) are 240 SP anyway.
• 2300-2380 SP:
  • L’Arachel’s B, C, and S Slots simply need to add to 700-780 SP to reach the 2300 SP scoring bin. As such, players have a wide selection of skill combinations, but some suggestions for each include:
    • B- Ruse skills (utility), Lull Spd/Res (combat), S/R Far Trace (combat and mobility)
    • C- Atk/Spd Menace (combat and utility), Spd/Res Menace (combat and utility), Joint Drive skills (combat and utility), Drive skills (utility), Close and Distant Guard (utility)

S- Atk/Spd Solo (combat), Blade Session (combat), Chill skills (utility)
