Release2.4

March 7th (The Hunt) is a free Imaginary swordswoman who picks a teammate as her Shifu. Each attack or Ultimate from her Shifu gives her Charge; at 7 Charge she immediately takes a turn with a multi-hit Enhanced Basic ATK that costs no Skill Points, then boosts her Shifu's CRIT DMG and Break Effect. She can be built as a CRIT damage dealer or as a Super Breaker, and as a Trailblaze Companion she can switch Himeko • Nova to Decimation.

Guide

How to play

How she works

Skill – Master, It's Tea Time! Designates one ally as Shifu (+10% SPD). Her Basic ATK and each hit of her Enhanced Basic ATK then get a bonus based on the Shifu's Path: Additional DMG of the Shifu's Type (Erudition, Destruction, The Hunt, Remembrance, Elation) or +100% Toughness Reduction (Harmony, Nihility, Preservation, Abundance).
Talent – Master, I've Ascended! She gains 1 Charge each time her Shifu uses an attack or Ultimate (her normal Basic ATK also gives 1). At 7+ Charge she acts immediately with +80% DMG and an Enhanced Basic ATK: 3 hits, then a 60% chance for each extra hit (up to 3 more). It consumes 7 Charge and recovers no Skill Points.
Ultimate – March 7th, the Apex Heroine (110 Energy). Single-target Imaginary DMG, and her next Enhanced Basic ATK starts with 2 more hits and an 80% chance for extra hits.
Traces. A2 advances her by 25% at the start of battle; A4 lets her reduce the Toughness of enemies weak to her Shifu's Type; A6 gives her Shifu +60% CRIT DMG and +36% Break Effect for 2 turns after each Enhanced Basic ATK.

Rotation

Use her Technique (30 Energy at the start of battle, plus 1 Charge per Technique used by teammates, up to 3).
Use her Skill once on her first turn to pick a Shifu, then Basic ATK until her Enhanced Basic ATK triggers.
Fire her Ultimate just before an Enhanced Basic ATK for the biggest hit.

Tips

She is SP-positive after the first Skill, which leaves Skill Points for hungry teammates.
Pick a Shifu who acts often: follow-up attackers and fast characters give her Charge much faster.
Her E2 (a Follow-Up ATK each time the Shifu uses Basic ATK or Skill, +1 Charge) is key to her performance, and all her Eidolons are free.
For Super Break, give her a Harmony or Nihility Shifu and play her alongside the Trailblazer (Harmony): without Backup Dancer she can't deal meaningful Break damage.

Strengths

Powerful and versatile support / damage hybrid
Works with top damage dealers and supports alike
Built-in Follow-Up ATKs (E2) and self action advances
Can play as a CRIT carry or as a Super Breaker
Completely free, Eidolons included

Weaknesses

Can be tricky to pilot
No single build covers both playstyles
Personal damage lags behind modern limited damage dealers

Notable dupes · Eidolon

Solid upgrade

+10% SPD for her while her Shifu is on the field.

Big upgrade

Her key Eidolon: a Follow-Up ATK each time her Shifu uses Basic ATK or Skill (once per turn), with the Path bonus and +1 Charge.

Solid upgrade

5 Energy at the start of each turn, for more Ultimates.

Solid upgrade

+50% CRIT DMG on the Enhanced Basic ATK that follows her Ultimate.
