Should You Pull? Prayer “Relic Friend Collection”

L80 Alice Margatroid is an Attack-Class Friend with a mix of Yin utility and personal offensive power, as well as general support, anomaly utility and helpful debuffs.

Last Word can be Very Powerful

With the Story Card, Sporadically Margaret, L80 Alice deals good damage to all her enemies due to her solid Killer range as well as the powerful boost which her Last Word has. This on top of doing 30% more damage with whatever element can be effective is always convenient too.

Utility is Top Notch

With a mix of Yin ATK up, Accuracy, and Yin DEF down on her skills, L80 Alice can support the team even further with power and barriers on Skill 1, and her Last Word can provide even more buffs and debuffs to support the team! She does hold a bias towards Yin nukers as she lacks Yang buffs for the party, but that’s a small price to pay as Yin nukers can benefit a great deal from her kit.

Inconsistency in Elements and Power

Despite the pros in L80 Alice’s Last Word, it does however struggle with its elemental spread. In fact, there is a general inconsistency with how she goes about her elements outside of Spell Cards. On top of this, having 2 Yang lines despite being a Yin unit whilst struggling with a considerably lower Yang ATK stat isn’t too helpful, even with the Yang Utility L80 Alice does have. These reasons make it more difficult to take advantage of L80 Alice’s high damage peak.

L80 Fujiwara no Mokou is a Heal-Class Friend who provides great party utility, elemental breaks, anomaly breaks, and huge Barrier restoration.

Strong and Widely Accessible Breaks

Paired with The Witch of Scarlet Dreams, her Skill 2, and with the right setup, L80 Mokou is able to provide either herself or her team with an anomaly break every turn with her Spell Cards, along with her Spell Card effects providing massive amounts of team utility and enemy debuffs. This is also not even mentioning her insane Fire break potential, with both her Spread Shot and her Last Word having 6 lines of Fire!

Good Variety of Party Buffs

L80 Mokou’s party buffs come from every which-where in her kit. Her Spell Cards provide the team with HP recovery and Yang DEF up, meanwhile her skills and passives allow her even more team HP recovery, even more Yang DEF up, bind and stat debuff dispels, Yang ATK up, and even Accuracy up. Aside from party Spirit P up, it seems there’s almost nothing L80 Mokou can’t bring to the table.

Eternal Firepower

Due to the aforementioned Yang ATK buffs and power L80 Mokou has going for her, she isn’t a pushover if she has to go from protecting the team to going all out. On top of dealing 30% more damage with effective elements (Fire, Moon, Star), and with a decent Killer range (despite Gensokyo not being on Line 1 on Last Word), the immortal human is no pushover if she has to bring the fire.

Eternal Skill Struggles

L80 Mokou’s Skills, while very beneficial, aren’t perfect sadly. Whether it's from a lack of flexibility from Skill 2, or Skill 3 having a long cooldown of 8 turns, you definitely have to be careful when using L80 Mokou’s Skills. As Skill 2 has a multitude of handy effects that you might want to use one effect and not all, which are Yang ATK, 2 Bind Removals and Spirit Power, it might be tough to time everything correctly when it comes to trying to make optimal usage of all 3, and this isn’t even going over if you just want to remove 1 Bind instead of 2.

Kanako Yasaka (L80) is a Technical-Class Friend who expertly wields Anomalies to her benefit and against her opponents before laying down devastating firepower.

Anomalous Faith

L80 Kanako’s mastery of Anomalies is evident in the way she wields elements of the Land and Sky equally. She can break 3 Poison barriers on a single target, and can set up a whopping 6-7 Paralyze breaks on ALL enemies on Turn 1. Her Last Word can break both these Anomalies, adding Burn and Freeze to the mix. Finally, she converts Burn, Freeze and Paralyze into a cornucopia of buffs, making her a great addition to most Anomaly teams.

Mountain of Damage

The Goddess of Wind and Rain can unleash a torrent of damage, with Yang ATK and CRIT ATK buffs that come close to maxing her out. Her Killers are nothing to sneeze at, covering the ever popular Gensokyo tag, while also hitting Gods and Parallel Presences to great effect. This is all even in addition to effective elements getting a 30% Boost!

Divine Support

The Divine L80 Kanako doesn’t necessarily set out to put others before herself, but that doesn’t stop her from successfully providing her allies some beneficial buffs such as CRIT ATK, Yang ATK, Accuracy, Yang DEF, Yin DEF and even some do a little bit of debuffing on enemies via Yang DEF and CRIT DEF.

Elemental Soup

Kanako has a colorful assortment of Elements spread throughout her kit. She hits both Wood and Star on her All-targeting Spell Card 1 while Spell Card 2 focuses entirely on hitting a single target with Earth. Her Last Word carries Wood, Metal and Water, similar to her Spread and Focus Shots. This lack of focus is of smaller consequence due to her ability to break barriers efficiently through Anomalies, but will limit her damage potential when hitting ineffective elements.

L80 Sakuya emerges as a Debuff-class Friend who shears away the enemy’s defense, allowing her to crush the opposition in no time.

The Moon, Stars and Izayoi

Both Moon and Star feature on all and every single bullet line L80 Sakuya has, including options for full Star and Moon breaks on Spread and Focus shots respectively.

Enables Yang Friends via Yang DEF and CRIT DEF Debuffs

L80 Sakuya’s claim to fame as a Debuff-class Friend manifests in Yang DEF and CRIT DEF debuffs from her Spell Cards and Skill 2.

Very Strong Killer Range

With L80 Sakuya’s bullet lines covering Human, Youkai, God and Parallel Presence Killers among others, she can guarantee CRITs on a large assortment of Gensokyo’s cast.

Amazing Burn Anomaly and Stun Utility

L80 Sakuya can break Burn anomalies with her attacks (Paralyze breaks in Last Word), constantly give herself Burn anomalies with her bullet lines which buff her offensive stats, and she can even guarantee a stun on a single enemy with 2P on her second Spell Card! Speaking of this Spell Card, she can also inflict 5 Burn anomalies onto an enemy before breaking it, also at 2P.

Evasion Buffing is a bit Niche

While Evasion is more of this subtle maid’s game, being able to completely negate damage is generally more handy than a higher chance of avoiding it. Best paired with Friends who want to avoid grazing in order to keep their Anomalies active.

Applying Burn to team may hinder certain Friends

Not everyone relishes the Burn quite like L80 Sakuya does, with normal units taking a hit to Yin ATK and Yin DEF unless they remove it by Grazing, anomaly healing or just waiting it out. Synergizes with Friends with Burn converting Abilities such as F1 Reimu, C3 Reimu, C3 Marisa and of course, her L80 Remilia Scarlet.

L80 Remilia Scarlet is an Attack-Class Friend with both Yin and Yang support, great breaks and greater damage when the stars align.

Amazing Damage, Especially with her Last Word

Coupled with the powerful Story Card, The Heat of My Fingertips, L80 Remilia can do a great deal of damage with her Last Word. If her Killers are able to connect, those numbers will start going through the roof!

The Break of my Fingertips

Anomalies, elements, L80 Remilia has you covered! Granted, her elements aren’t the most consistent in the world due to her Spell Cards containing a mix of Moon, Metal, Star, Fire and Water, but her full-Moon Last Word and additional anomaly breaks will easily make up for that! L80 Remilia can do well when it comes to barrier breaking enemies due to a decent amount of Burn anomalies which she can then use to break with either both Shots or her Second Spell Card.

Utility From Skills and Spell Cards

Not only can she do a good deal of barrier breaks with burn anomaly breaks, but her skills also lend themselves well to this performance. With a strong buff duration of 5 turns on Skill 1, debuffs on Skill 3, and even more buffs to provide the team with her First Spell Card and Last Word.

Survivability is Somewhat Limited

A flaw that L80 Remilia does have is her lack of Barrier Restoration, as her only source of barrier restoration in her kit is her Last Word. On top of that, as a unit who benefits from Burn anomalies, if she is lacking external Barrier support, this could be a potential issue.

Long Night of Cooldowns

When looking at her Skills, you can already figure out that longer battles are probably not going to be L80 Remilia’s forte, as Skill 1 having 8 turns of downtime with the other two Skills having 6 turns isn’t the greatest thing in the world to handle. This may mean careful usage of Skills if you’re planning on using our vampire in question in a longer fight, but lacking that lower cooldown duration leading to spammable Skils some other units have access to does hurt a bit.

L80 Satori is a Destroy-Class Friend who specializes in powerful barrier breaks, nuking, potential guaranteed CRITs and a bit of additional utility sprinkled in.

Amazing Barrier Break Potential

L80 Satori can inflict both Burn and Poison anomalies and break them via her Shots, 2nd Spell Card, and Last Word. On top of this, every single bullet line here is either Water or Fire, meaning that elemental breaking will definitely be consistent.

Self-Sustainable Satori

L80 Satori is self-sustainable in a way where she can replenish her barriers and Spirit P via her Spell Cards, allowing her to take advantage of barrier breaks and potential Graze utility. Her skills also have a decent duration where they can be used to keep up her buffs with little to no downtime.

Lackluster Spell Card damage (except Last Word)

Despite being a Destroy-Class character, she cannot carry her CRIT Accuracy enough to do great damage using her Spell Cards. Additionally, her lack of currently relevant Killers also contribute to her Spell Card's damage output. If these Killers do hit however, it can prove to produce great damage, but her Youkai-Killer on her Last Word still helps a ton nonetheless.

Doesn’t Have A Particularly Strong Team Utility

Her team utility is not the strongest in the game sadly. Her main utility lies on Skill 1 which boosts the party's CRIT Accuracy, Accuracy and Spirit Power by 0.75, in addition to her ability to give CRIT ATK while Grazing. However, the latter gimps her ability to stack buffs via her Poison and Blind anomaly self-inflicts.

Trained in the art of sword fighting, L80 Youmu Konpaku will cut through any and all disillusions facing her way, proving herself as your guiding light for present and future endeavors.

Extremely Powerful and Solid Support Capabilities

As a Support unit, the usual focal point is to support the party, which L80 Youmu fulfills in an excellent way. The buffs she provides have excellent duration and low cooldowns, allowing her to constantly supply her party with it and in turn not worry about it much as the fight goes on. Specifically, her 3rd skill allows for infinite Yin ATK and Yang ATK UP buffing with an extra turn to give leeway to potential skill use stalling.

Self-Sustainable Soul

This is an extension to L80 Youmu’s ability to provide solid support to the entire party as in conjunction to being able to support this well, the unit herself will definitely not be left out of it. Every aspect that she is able to support, whether it be powerful attack buffs, barrier restores, and Spirit Power, will be maximized to its fullest due to low downtime.

Massive Variety and Range of relevant Killers.

Youmu is able to deal with a myriad of disillusions with her powerful access to a wide variety and range of Killers such as Gensokyo, Parallel Presence, Soul, and Human, with some niche Killers included within. This enables her to dish out an outstanding damage potential due to guaranteed critical hits upon many, many foes.

Centered Around Metal-Elemental Breaking

Majority of her attacks revolve around the Metal element, along with some fragmented elements. This allows her to be very useful in regards to Metal based content and at the same time, may limit her usage on other stages that resists Metal.

Decent Anomaly Inflicts and Breaks

She is able to inflict Poison to all targets and simultaneously break it at 2.00P using her 2nd spell card. Additionally, her Spread Shot can do the same, albeit only on a single target at 1.00P.

Team-wide Poison Inflictions is a Potential Pain

Her 3rd skill, which provides 2 Poison inflicts to the party, is beneficial for L80 Youmu due to her Ability. However, this can slightly gimp other units in the party who are Yang oriented due to the anomaly’s negative effects. On the other hand, this is quite minor when compared to other anomalies and you can mitigate this via Grazing and/or anomaly cleanse. In fact, this can become a boon instead for your party if they benefit from the anomaly itself.
