★ RANK UP ★

S2 is truly a good upgrade, you obtain a very good DMG bonus overall.

SS is the best rank up for people who play in Memorial Arena and Superstring Dimension, SS greatly helps you obtain higher scores.and the bonus DMG are awesome.

And if you e a big whale, SSS is the best (not a surprise).

★ DMG COMPARISON ★

Ty Hisui for letting me use her pictures, it's really understable.

★ LINEUP ★

Her main and only role is gonna be a Fire DPS.

Dream team for her is with HoTr and CN.

HoTr it's the best support for FV.

She's a Fire and Lightning support who granting breach and increase all the DMG deal by Fire and Lightning DPS.

Unfornately, it's a S-Rank Valkyrie, you can only obtain from gacha.

It's highly recommend to pull for her because it's an international support for every elemental team.

CN (an SP Valkyrie) is the second best support for FV.

You can obtain CN fragments for free in Asteries Shop, or in Adventure Tasks.

She can gather the enemies and Ignite them.

Replacement :

If you don't have Hotr you can replace her by Azure Empyrea.

She's pretty old and you can only get her in dorms pulls.

★ CONCLUSION ★

It is worth to pull for Fenghuang of Vicissitude?

If you can up to 190 pulls yes ! It's a good investment for S2 4/4.

If you don't have HoTr, definitely no. HoTr is the principal support of Garuda Team.

We're going to have a big patch soon with 7.3, so it's depends on what you want to do with your xtals.

The best decision if you already have good Fire Valk is to skip her and save xtals for 7.3 if you don't have many.

(To conclude, Garuda is a bait banner)
