Analysis

-How effective use it with Palatinus Equinox and how much it better than other stigmata set?

. This set have massive buffs for every aspect that physical dps need - physical damage, total damage, crit damage, crit rate (also SP regen).

. Every piece have permanent buff and enhance buff with activation conditions.

. 2x set have special effect for PE - when you activating 1 any enhance from single pieces, other enhances activates as well.

. Easiest way to get full buff from stigmas is triggering Ultimate evasion skill, you can trigger it in both Guardian (charge attack) and Knight (evasion) form.

. Most important pieces are Top and Mid with 2x set since it gives massive buffs and with Mid you can easy activate all enhances.

-Can you use this stigmas on other valkyries?

. Yes.

. M piece very strong, gives in total 40% total damage buff, most good physical dps can trigger Ultimate evasion skill, BKE, HoS, SP for example.

. You can combinate between TMB, TM and MB, for TM it's hard to activate Top enhances buff but you still have 30% physical(T) and 30% total(2x set) damage buff and Elysia B, for MB you can use Jingwei, Marco, Elysia on top as alternative, full set still good since it buffs all what physical dps need and 3x still have 30% physical damage buff.

Comparison with other stigmas

This team i will use for comparison

Damage test

Little notes about PE stigs build:

. ATK affixes was rolled only for signature set and Elysia stigmas.

. This test not counted hitcount sigimas as Rebel's Blade TB and Marco M.

. This test count 100% HP for Lier bot buff.

. This test was tested on solo enemy which means Jingwei top buff working in this test.

. This test does not take into the lack of critical damage for all small numbers.

Little analysis:

. For optimal damage you need at least 2 pieces of signature set.

. Elysia-Dante great alternative.

. Elysia-Kafka great f2p alternative.

. Jingwei-Marco-Lier great low cost f2p alternative.

Gameplay

This lineup i will use in abyss test:

PE s0

HoS s0

SnS sss

Basical main rotation for abyss: HoS spear > SnS qte > charge > ult > HoS ult > PE qte > charge > tap ult > attack > weapon active > ult > weapon active x3 > charge

Main rotation can be slightly different, it depends on Boss.

Conclusions

Bianka: Theatre great new physical stigma set, it gives many difference buffs. It gives physical buff, total damage buff, crit damage buff, crit rate buff, even have sp regen buff. Very easy to use on Palatinus Equinox, only with Ultimate evade skill with Time Fracture you getting all buffs. However other variants also gives good results, it doesn't mean you shouldn't pull for Bianka: Theatre, you need to pull it for sure if you want to build PE, but first you should to get signature weapons and then at least 2 stigma pieces, full set of course the best. For more f2p players just use other alternatives from damage test, PE have many Time Fracture triggers, many Ultimate evasion skill trigger, many Charged attacks, which means you can use such stigmas as Kafka, Elysia, Dante.

Good luck for captain who will pull Palatinus Equinox and her gear![emoji]
