Release3.0

Striker Fulminata is Mei's A-rank BIO-type Physical katana user from v3.0, the augment core of Valkyrie Bladestrike and the first battlesuit of the Augment system. She throws her Gotamashi Edge after evasions, dashes in for rapid Blade Flurries fuelled by EM Reserves, and slashes even faster in her Takemikazuchi Burst mode while her teammates regain SP. Fun but only a decent DPS even at release (Marisa Impact), she has no Astral Ring and is obsolete in 9.0; her main use today is the Elysian Realm, where she has been playable since v5.1.

Guide

How to play

EM Reserves

  • Her Basic ATK SEQ 2, 3 and 5 restore EM Reserves (1, 1 and 2); her Ultimate Evasion, her QTE and her Ultimate restore more.
  • During an evasion, tap [ATK] to spend 1 EM Reserve and throw the Gotamashi Edge (AoE Physical DMG, and 2 EM Reserves back outside Burst), then dash in and start a Blade Flurry.

Combo ATK: Blade Flurry

  • A dash, a flurry of slashes and a Fatal Slash; tap [ATK] during it to repeat it up to 2 times.
  • From 2★, enemies hit by the Gotamashi Edge take 30% more Physical DMG from Blade Flurry for 3s, so always throw the blade first. Blade Flurry also gains +40% Crit DMG against airborne enemies.

Evasion: Raikage

  • Ultimate Evasion triggers a 3s Time Fracture and restores 1 EM Reserve (CD 15s); tap [ATK] right after for Blade Flurry.

Ultimate: Takemikazuchi

  • At 100+ SP, she enters Burst mode for up to 10s (20 SP, then 8 SP/s) and gets 4 EM Reserves. In Burst, her Basic ATK string changes (its 5th sequence inflicts Paralyze Trauma), the Gotamashi Edge deals +300% ATK, and off-field teammates regain 2 SP/s.
  • From 2★, entering Burst deals bonus damage based on her combo count and cuts damage taken by 40%.

Rotation

  1. Basic ATK to SEQ 5 to fill EM Reserves.
  2. Evade (ideally an Ultimate Evasion) → throw the Gotamashi Edge → Blade Flurry, and repeat while you have EM Reserves.
  3. At 100+ SP, Ultimate and keep throwing blades and Blade Flurries until Burst ends.

From 3★ she gains +0.5% Crit Rate per combo hit (up to +50%), and her team-wide Combo Keeper protects the combo count once every 30s. Her leader skill only gives DEF and HP.

Strengths

  • Playable in the Elysian Realm since v5.1, with her own exclusive signets.
  • Fast, fun and mobile gameplay built around evasions, blade throws and Blade Flurries.
  • Burst mode feeds SP to off-field teammates and cuts her damage taken.
  • Built-in Time Fracture, Paralyze Trauma and airborne control.

Weaknesses

  • Obsolete in 9.0: no Astral Ring, and only a decent DPS even at release (Marisa Impact).
  • Needs Valkyrie Bladestrike plus Fulminata Cores, and several key skills require 2★–3★ augment ranks.
  • Short Burst mode (10s max) that needs 100 SP to start.
  • Her leader skill is purely defensive.
