I recommend to read this guide in dark mode.

Summary
Closing Statement
✦ Skill explanations ✦
I'll quickly go over parts of her kit that are important for her Elysian Realm gameplay.
If you wanna find out about her kit in detail, please look up my Battlesuit Guide!
✧ Basic firearms ✧
Lantern can switch between three weapons:
rapic crossbow / shotgun / submachine gun
Switch by tapping [WA]
✧ Weapon Active ✧
Tap [WA] while attacking on the ground to use Firepower Rotation.
Switches firearms and deals DMG.
All of them share her Special Charge: Blast Energy
150 Charge
✧ Evasion ✧
Normal Evasion can deal DMG.
✧ Combo ATK ✧
Hold [ATK] at full Blast Energy to use her Combo ATK.
✧ Stellar Outburst ✧
Can use character's Phantoms during Stellar Outburst.
Basic ATK automatically triggers Firepower Rotation (Weapon Active) during Stellar Outburst when it's off cooldown.
✧ Ultimate ✧
Nothing too special, stops all timers
✦ Special Adjustments ✦
It's so short...
✦ Gears ✦
Firstly get her weapon. Full gear should be the standard nowadays
There's always the "I'll suffer" option though (Garuda's set is way better in case u have that)
✦ Kuru Kuru Build ✦
✧ Rotation ✧
Hold Evasion. Ultimate when available and u didn't go for Eden1.
Try to trigger as many Evasions as possible.
spin2win
Ideal rotation: Enter -> hold [EVA] until first QTE -> Ultimate -> hold [EVA] again
With 2 Egos trigger as many Evasions as possible.
✧ Signets ✧
➤ Ego Signets
START: Blessing of Blazing Torch
PRIORITY: Blessing of Luminance
OPTIONAL: Blessing of Illuminated Night
➤ General Signets
How I’ll visualise it
In order to make the Signet list more clear, let me show how I'll list the Signets:
Signet of [Signet name] - flamechaser
First priority Signet
Second priority Signet
Third priority Signet
(Fourth priority Signet...)
core (core1/2)
First priority Enhanced
Second priority Enhanced
(Third priority Enhanced...)
(Note:...)
I'll mark Signets that should only be taken if you have no better choices currently with (optional) and add a short explanation behind the Signets in case you don't know the names (like tdmg, SP, and so on)
High priority Signets
Signet of Gold - Eden
Recitatif of Eden (Total DMG)
Recitatif of Creeks (Elemental DMG)
Recitatif of Fina Jade (Initial/Max SP)
Core 1 OR 2
Note: Fast runs (good weather/gear or low difficulty) prefer Core 2, casual and slow runs prefer Core 1.
Signet of Setsuna - Sakura
Bountiful Blossom: Kiku (UE reset) (NOTE!)
Bountiful Blossom: Koyo (Total DMG taken)
Bountiful Blossom: Botan (Total DMG)
Bountiful Blossom: Fuji (+1 Evasion)
Core 1 - Setsuna Blade: Sakura ni Maku
Note: Only get Kiju when you got the Ego Signet "Blessing of Luminance". The Signet requires you to constantly evade to be able to trigger many Ultimate Evasions to trigger the Ego Signet and quickly restore Blast Energy.
Low priority Signets
Signet of Vicissitude - Fu Hua
Old Dreams Again (Elemental Breach)
Long Trip (Total DMG)
Dark Garb No More (Elemental DMG)
Core 2 - Suffering Mass
Broken Dreams (max stacks) (optional)
Note: Don't enter Hua doors hoping to get Broken Dreams, chances are too low. Ideal way to get Hua Signets is getting 1/2 in Shop when you can finish the core next floor to avoid stand alone Signets. Hua NEEDS her core.
Signet of Decimation - Kalpas
Blade, Grave, and Scar (Total DMG)
Bone, Blood, and Ribbon (Elemental DMG)
Path, Misfortune, and Written Fate (Max HP)
Core 2 - Soldiers, Scissors, Spoils, and Slaughter

✦ Stellar Outburst Build ✦
✧ Rotation ✧
Tap Supports -> Stellar Outburst -> Combo ATK -> Ultimate -> Senadina Phantom -> Basic ATKs until full Charge -> Combo -> Lantern Phantom -> Basic ATKs -> Ultimate when available
Note: Skip Ultimate if you have Eden1 (In case u wanna follow another signet priority it's usable)
When your Astral Ring outburst is over just use Basic ATKs and WAs and Combos whenever they're available, but I generally dont recommend going for this build if that's needed
✧ Signets ✧
➤ Ego Signets
START: Blessing of Raging Fire
PRIORITY: Blessing of Scorching Flames
Note: Don't get if you wanna get a fast run and have the DMG for that. Casual runs want it.
OPTIONAL: Blessing of Illuminated Night

High priority Signets
Signet of Helix - Vill-V
Act II: Pendulum (Total DMG taken)
Act V: Spider Web (Ranged Total DMG)
Act III: Conflict (Total DMG)

Note: Can also get Core 2 when you get enough Total DMG taken from somewhere else
Signet of Stars - Griseo
Red & Hot
Yellow & Warm
Black & Dark (Elemental DMG)
Blue & Cold
Core 1 - Shining like Stars
Note: Red & Hot is mostly a better Signet to reset for than a second Ego Signet. Level Red & Hot to +3. Can get Enhanced SIgnets from Shop when you see them and there's nothing needed. With Core 1 getting many cores will be the first priority.

Long Trip (Total DMG)
Dark Garb No More (Elemental DMG)

Broken Dreams (max stacks) (optional)

Signet of Gold - Eden
Recitatif of Eden (Total DMG)
Recitatif of Creeks (Elemental DMG)
Recitatif of Fina Jade (Initial/Max SP)
Core 2 - Echo of Gold

✦ Kuru Kuru vs Stellar Outburst Build ✦
Look
Kuru kuru is just simply better
(Unless you're going for a speedrun) this build is really brain dead though.
Stellar Outburst build totally works. But make sure the weather and gears are good for Lantern, cause if it can't clear each stage in one Stellar Outburst it falls off horribly.
Both work, non-StellarOutburst is better overall though.
✦ Summary ✦
✧ Kuru Kuru Build ✧
✧ Stellar Outburst Build ✧
✦ Closing Statement ✦
Starting off Lantern felt really weak.
She definitely is worse than most new Valkyries, but after some testing it started going well.
I had fun speedrunning ER with her at least, there are many different Signet combinations she can use which made it fun testing around a bit.
And never forget the original Kuru Kuru

Have a great day and fun with Lantern
