Violet Executer
Theresa Apocalypse
Violet Executer is Theresa's S-rank MECH-type Physical battlesuit from v2.2.1: a mid-range lancer who applies Bleed with her Impaler charge, her Execute Mode burst and her Iron Maiden halberd, then cashes it in with Salt for the Wound's bonus AOE hits. Her real value today is as the base of her augment core, Twilight Paladin (v3.4), which replaces her kit and is also what her Elysian Realm entry plays as. Even Twilight Paladin is an outdated Part 1 DPS (Marisa Impact), so Violet Executer herself is obsolete in 9.0.

Stat targets
- Stigmata affixes: ATK, Crit Rate or Physical DMG
- Keep enemies bleeding for Salt for the Wound
- If you plan to play Twilight Paladin, aim for SS and SSS on Violet Executer
Talent priority
Where to get her: Dorm Supply, War Treasury and BP; Twilight Paladin's Twilight Cores come from the Open World and the Asterite Shop (Marisa Impact). Invest in Twilight Paladin rather than in Violet Executer's own skills. Owning her also opens her Elysian Realm entry and its first-clear Crystal rewards.
Recommended teams
Part 1 Physical supports
Marisa Impact's standard Physical supports for Part 1 DPS: Herrscher of Rebirth for Impair and Crit, Reign Solaris for shield break, Stun Trauma and damage. The same team works better with Twilight Paladin. No Astral Ring: older content only.
Budget Physical team
Herrscher of Sentience (also from the War Treasury) impairs enemies, and with at least two different types in the team, Violet Executer's leader skill adds +8% Total DMG (+12% at SS rank) on top of +12% Physical DMG for Burst and Ultimate attacks. Fine for events and older content.
How to play
Bleed and burst
- Her Basic ATK (Lance of Longinus) is a mid-range 4-sequence halberd combo. Hold [ATK] during it for Impaler: a 9-hit upward thrust (100% ATK of Physical DMG each) that knocks enemies airborne and can inflict Bleed Trauma.
- Execute Mode (80 SP): an 8s burst with crowd-control immunity. Her Basic ATK turns into stronger burst attacks, and the activation deals 300% ATK of Lightning DMG, knocks enemies airborne and inflicts 6 Bleed Trauma. At SSS rank, burst SEQ 4 gains +50% Crit Rate.
- Salt for the Wound: attacks against a bleeding enemy add 3 x 226% ATK of AOE Physical DMG (CD: 1.5s), so keep enemies bleeding.
- Flesh Raker: +50% Physical DMG against unshielded enemies and +50% Crit DMG against shielded ones.
- Her Ultimate Evasion (Iron Maiden) drops a giant halberd (200% ATK, knockdown, 3 Bleed Trauma; CD: 11s). Her QTE (on Time Slow) fires 2 crossed rows of impaling spears, and her switch-in performs a 9-hit Impaler.
Rotation
- Enter through her switch-in or QTE, then cast your cross (Hekate's blades add a lot of combo hits).
- Execute Mode, chain the burst sequences and weave in Impaler charges to reapply Bleed.
- Use Iron Maiden whenever her Ultimate Evasion is ready.
Twilight Paladin
Owning Violet Executer lets you unlock Twilight Paladin with Twilight Cores (Open World, Asterite Shop). Augment ranks 1 to 4 need Violet Executer at S rank, rank 5 needs SS and rank 6 needs SSS. Twilight Paladin's Fervor and Feverish Barrage kit, and Hekate's Sombre's character bonuses, belong to the augment: her Elysian Realm entry is played with the augment core activated.
Strengths
- Unlocks Twilight Paladin, her stronger augment core, which is also how her Elysian Realm entry plays.
- Self-sufficient Bleed (Impaler, Execute Mode, Iron Maiden) that feeds big Salt for the Wound procs.
- Crowd-control immunity during Execute Mode, and from SS rank her cross gives the team 60% Total DMG Reduction for 8s.
- Her Hekate cross comes from the Exchange Shop and the BP (Marisa Impact).
Weaknesses
- Superseded by her own augment core, Twilight Paladin, which Marisa Impact already calls an outdated Part 1 DPS.
- No Astral Ring: obsolete in current Memorial Arena and Superstring Abyss content.
- Marisa Impact does not recommend farming War Treasury battlesuits, apart from Sirin and Herrscher of Sentience.
- Twilight Paladin's last augment ranks need Violet Executer at SS and SSS rank.
Notable dupes · Rank
Stronger leader skill, No Touching (her cross gives the team 60% Total DMG Reduction for 8s) and Spiked Skirt (Ignore Interrupt during SEQ 4). Also required for Twilight Paladin's 5th augment rank.
Arbiter (+50% Crit Rate on burst SEQ 4). Also required for Twilight Paladin's 6th and last augment rank.
