Overview

In raids where she will be frequently targeted by auto attacks, Sturm is the premiere delay bot in fire. This is thanks to her  Deft BladeWhen Deft BladeFoe's DEF is lowered with every one-foe attack (Stackable) / Blitzkrieg activates upon dodging (Can't be removed)

Strum truly shines in Belial, where her passive delays stave off the raid-wipe without incurring any plain damage. Tiamat Malice deserves an honorable mention, because the AOE auto attacks can frequently trigger Sturm's delay, and thus significantly reduce the incoming damage the party receives.
