Shura is a powerful attacker, with moderate utility, and powerful but costly party buff. She can be difficult to handle as most of her kit consumes charge bar. Her extremely lowered charge bar gain means her skills and passive are fighting with each other over a resource in short supply.

With Shura needing charge bar to maximize her skills' effects, her Support Skill (★3) is the first priority. Afterwards, upgrading her Critical (★3×2) and Attack (★3×2) nodes will improve her Triple Attacks. For the final EMPs, Gamewith recommends increasing durability with Defense and/or HP points.
