Character Analysis
Chen was released on May 11th, 2021 as part of the starting roster.
Chen is the shikigami of Ran Yakumo, who likewise is the shikigami of Yukari Yakumo. This naturally gives her the title of “shikigami of a shikigami,” which shows when her power does not exceed the levels of her master, Ran. She never lets this stop her from protecting her master, especially when she is around to strengthen Chen, using raw speed and trickery to confuse her opponents. However, just as her appearance would give away, a cat’s common weaknesses of water and catnip will cripple Chen’s fighting capabilities immensely. Still having a lot to learn from her master, Chen is able to calculate an approximate A-Tier Friend placement.
For farming purposes, Chen already takes a note from her master’s book by having an All Last Word that aims to crush enemies with pure strength. Thanks to every bullet in her Last Word lacking an element, she will not have to worry about losing damage to any elemental resistances. Not only will her skills provide Spirit Power to add more bullets to her assault, but any increase in Agility will further strengthen her damage output. Do note, however, that a lack of accuracy (50% for each bullet) will require some Accuracy buffs to maximize her potential.
For harder fights, Chen unfortunately takes another note from her master: the absence of elemental bullets in any of her shots or spell cards. This already means that Chen will be incapable of assisting in breaking any opponents’ barriers, limiting her options. Her first card will provide her with an Agility buff that can increase her Last Word output and debuffing a target’s Evasion with her second card can be a situational support. Pointing out all of her abilities points out one major flaw, that being she can only buff herself. Perhaps it is due to her childish mentality, but the combination of zero elements for breaking and abilities that can only improve her damage means Chen has very little synergy to boost other Friends’ capabilities. In team compositions, she will only be seen as a strong All Last Word attacker who will require the support to improve her accuracy or damage.
Overall, Chen boasts high power with her Last Word, capable of boosting her Agility as much as possible to likewise boost strength. The underlying issue being that this is all she can bring to the table, as the lack of element breaks means she will have to rely on others before maximizing damage from a Full Break. Her pure focus on power still shoots her pretty high up, which should certainly make her master proud.
Here is Chen's Slice scaling (per bullet):
Requiem of Tenyuuji: 0%/20%/20%/20%/20%/20%
Story Card Recommendations
(Card recommendations last updated on October 31, 2022)
Spell Card
If you're using Chen's Spell Cards for whatever reason, they want as much Accuracy as possible, so give her your Story Card with the highest number of Levels of ACC UP on it. It's most likely you'll be using them for stat sticks however, in which case look for Story Cards with Yang ATK & Agility.
Last Word
Mysterious Sword Master is far and away Chen's best option, providing her with Slash DMG UP and Accuracy UP. With that said, another card to consider would be Puppeteer and Necromancer as it provides 50% No-Element DMG UP, however this is clearly worse than using the Mysterious Sword Master card. If you got nothing else, consider giving her an ACC UP card instead.
Character Skill Level Up Recommendations
Levelling up each of Chen’s skills will result in the same outcome: increasing the chance of another level of a buff and more Spirit Power gain. With that in mind, Shikigami Enhance: Accuracy should definitely be prioritized first in order to increase Chen’s chances of hitting. Shikigami Enhance: Agility will provide an agility buff to further raise Last Word damage. Shikigami Enhance: Evasion definitely pales in comparison to the other two, only helping Chen’s Last Word through Spirit Power gains.
Character Strengths
+Strong All Last Word
+Above-average chances of Crit
+Skills provide Spirit Power (and Agility) to further increase Last Words’ power
Character Weaknesses
-Zero elemental bullets
-Lacking accuracy without buffs or story cards
-No supportive buffs or utility outside of Target debuffs
