- Monica is a fairly typical modern player phase mage, featuring an exclusive weapon that grants Slaying, stat buffs, and start of turn Desperation in addition to a strong offensive statline. Her weapon also inflicts a stat debuff to the foe’s Speed and Resistance based on their maximum special cooldown, giving her a decent stat swing right off the bat against foes that possess low cooldown specials such as Ruptured Sky or Moonbow.
- Monica’s base kit is quite good for her role: Her innate Atk/Spd Ideal and Spd/Res Tempo are great skills and having them off the bat makes her much easier to build if one intends to use her. Monica is a decent candidate for an AOE special build thanks to her Tome’s slaying effect. Coupled with Time’s Pulse, she’ll only need a single hit with Flashing Blade’s effect triggered in order to continuously activate AOE specials. Even on non-AOE builds, Time’s Pulse is a great C slot option that helps her trigger her specials quickly: but it’s also fairly rare, so it can be replaced as needed.
- For B slot alternatives, Null Follow-Up is a standout option due to how common follow-up prevention and automatic follow-up skills are. Lull Spd/Res can be a decent alternative to Spd/Res Tempo if buff stacking foes such as Legendary Marth are a concern, but in most circumstances Null Follow-Up and Spd/Res Tempo are superior.
- The usual Atk/Spd Boosting sacred seal fare are her best seal options besides Flashing Blade, so skills like Blade Session, Atk/Spd Solo, Etc.
Strengths
Wind Genesis
Wind Genesis is an excellent exclusive weapon, granting Monica a Slaying effect as well as an Atk/Spd Buff and Desperation at the start of the turn. In addition to this, the weapon grants her hefty in combat bonuses: an additional +6 boost to her Attack and Speed and a Speed/Resistance debuff that scales based on the maximum cooldown value of the foe’s Special (IE: Foes with low cooldown specials such as Glimmer will suffer a greater debuff than foes with high cooldown specials such as Aether). Altogether this weapon makes Monica a player phase powerhouse, easily capable of shredding through foes that lack incredibly high Resistance stats or Resistance investment.
Great Offenses
Monica’s baseline offensive presence is stellar, and with a baseline Attack/Speed of 38 and 43 respectively Monica will have little trouble dishing out heavy damage. She also benefits from a superasset in both Attack and Speed, as if she didn’t have enough stats to go around.
Weaknesses
Defenses
Monica’s base 31 Resistance certainly isn’t bad, but can still fall prey to harder hitting magical foes. Her main issue is her lackluster base 24 Defense, which means that physical foes can easily bring her down should they be able to initiate combat.
