Overview

Ranko's charge attack has bonus fire and water damage, which is rare and useful in some off-element battles. However, her limited kit and subpar base charge attack power causes her to be outclassed by other SR attackers.

Strengths

  • Can inflict Status Charm.pngCharmedAttacks are slightly limited
    when Awakening mode is reached. Her Status Charm.pngCharmedAttacks are slightly limited
    procs for 35%, which is strong for an SR character.
  • Status Uplift.pngCharge Bar +10%Instantly boosts Charge Bar by 10%

    can help sustain her health while keeping up the enmity.

Weaknesses

  • Low base Charge Attack damage and C.A. damage cap. Bonus damage from Charge Attack is not linear with her base C.A. damage.
  • Doesn't have impressive performance until she reaches Awakening mode. Reaching Awakening mode requires Ranko to multiattack and use skills frequently to reach Status Dark Power 10.pngDark PowerDark Power is rising
    .
  • No innate enmity support skill, which is practically not powerful in non-enmity-based grids.

How to Play

Before Awakening

Priorities

First, take 3★ of her Support Skill and two 2★ of Dark ATK to increase her own damage. To ensure her reach Awakening mode faster, take up to 2★ each of Double Attack. If nothing else, take 3★ of Critical Hit. You can ignore getting Double Attack EMPs if your grid have enough multiattack boost. The rest EMP star(s) unused can be spent freely; it's recommended to take HP as it'll help her survivablity after using Ability RankoBook.png Soul GuideGain Instant ChargeInstantly sets Charge Bar to 100%
