C Passive: Time’s Pulse / Infantry Pulse

Sacred Seal: Flashing Blade / Blade Session / Quickened Pulse

With Velouria being an Infantry Beast unit, Velouria not only has valuable skill access in the form of Time’s Pulse, but she also received the boosted refine effect for Infantry Beast introduced at the start of 2022; Guard Nullification so long as she is transformed. This is extremely valuable for a Galeforce strategy as it significantly improves her reliability of activating it. Naturally, Wings of Mercy is by default the only choice as of the time of writing as warping in is an imperative part of the strategy as a whole.
Coupled with Wolfpup Fang’s base cooldown reduction of -2, it is relatively straightforward to ensure that Velouria can activate Galeforce in a single round of combat, or even a single attack. The skills suggested are some of the methods to do so. Should a player require it, Velouria can also run Infantry Pulse to provide more cooldown utility for her allies should they be Infantry units as well.
Velouria’s refine also provides her with 10 Atk and 10 Spd, which not only provides a significant bump in her combat potential, it also helps with meeting the stat checks for Flashing Blade. Should a player have excess skill slots to work with after achieving the one-tap Galeforce dream, they can further increase her Atk and Spd to increase her damage ceiling.

Sacred Seal: HP+5

Velouria’s refined Wolfpup Fang not only provides the cooldown reduction to her support partner on turn 1, but it also grants visible buff nullification so long as Velouria is within 3 spaces of her partner. Visible buffs are a relatively common occurrence in Summoner Duels, making Velouria prime support to potentially support your strongest unit on the team.
Due to Velouria’s relatively subpar default attack range, Velouria is more poised as a support rather than as a combat unit; the focus for this build would be to provide some form of map-wide support without Velouria necessarily entering combat. This includes the likes of Sudden Panic and Even Pulse Tie.
Wings of Mercy is a potential skill that might also be worth considering as Velouria herself also benefits from the cooldown reduction and buff nullification, and Velouria can likely swoop in for a kill if it is required.

Strengths

Wolfpup Fang

Wolfpup Fang provides substantial support for her support partner; not only does it provides -2 cooldown reduction, but it also provides foe buff nullification and a visible buff to Atk and Spd for herself and her ally support. This weapon can be applied to a myriad of strategies in many competitive modes, such as Summoner Duels and Aether Raids. Outside of the support perks, Wolfpup Fang also provides a substantial Atk and Spd boost, allowing Velouria to pack a decent punch should she be required to enter combat. Lastly, the refined effect of Guard Nullification for new Infantry Beasts can be rather useful should Velouria need to activate higher cooldown Specials, such as the likes of Galeforce.

Excellent Offensive Stats

With 35 base Attack and 37 base Speed, Velouria shines offensively and can deal good amounts of damage while both performing and avoiding follow-up attacks with ease. Velouria is also likely to meet Attack and Speed checks from skills such as Heavy Blade and Flashing Blade.

Infantry Perk

Velouria being an Infantry unit means she can access an assortment of Passives, ranging from combat options such as Null Follow-Up and Time’s Pulse, or support options such as Sudden Panic, Even Pulse Tie, and Infantry Pulse.

Colorless

Velouria not having a color is more of a boon than a bane; she is separated from the weapon triangle outside of Raven Tome and a small number of special weapons, both of which are relatively uncommon. As such, Velouria is likely to not have any disadvantageous matchup, which improves her consistency when used

Weaknesses

Magically Frail

Velouria boasts a rather pitiful resilience to magical attacks which can make it difficult to field her against opponents who can take advantage of this. Unless highly invested, it is not recommended for Velouria to take too many magical attacks without substantial support from her allies.

Beast

Velouria at the end of the day is still a Beast unit, which means that some of the combat effects of her weapon do require transformation, which can be finicky to work with depending on the formation. Fortunately, her support capabilities are not tagged to her transformation.

Ally Support Reliance

Velouria’s whole gimmick relies on ally support. This meant that should the ally-supported unit get taken out, Velouria’s weapon is effectively neutered. Furthermore, ally support is not active when not controlled by the player, which includes modes such as Aether Raids Defense.
