Perigrine Sword
About
🔘PS is the new S rank Gacha Li Sushang battlesuit which features Bleed dps capabilities, tho she isn't very centered on support, she's easy to understand and has a new skill that will include new AR mechanic.
🔘She is basically the new PSY envoirment Bleed and Physcial dps meta and able cover most of the already existing bosses.
Skills Review
🥇Leader Skill
🔘Lead skills nowdays are pretty much the first indicator regarding the playability of the whole team, basically deciding unique skills, Stellar Outburst CD, intensity cost and intensity gain for the astral ring to be triggered.
🔘Leader actvates Law of Ascension AR, activation cost is 200.
⭐Special Attack: Combo
🔘Once KE is full, her combo atk is triggered holding atk and then connected to active.
combo
💥Ultimate
🔘One of her main sources of DMG and hitcount, consumes 90 SP, and triggers AR bonuses bypassing Stellar Outburst.
ulti
⭕Basic Attack
🔘Only has ground atks. They're not really used in battle as her fluent gameplay is focused on connects and team QTE.
basic
🔘QTE conditions are quite good since they're mostly met by anyone, inflicts 6 Bleed trauma(lv.2), can regain KE on QTE and also be connected into weapon active.
QTE
🔫Weapon Skill
🔘Weapon skills are pretty much the main source of DMG, while inflicting 6 Bleed trauma(lv.2) and can be triggered by Stellar Outburst.
AR active
💨Evade
🔘Quite important in MA due to time fracture, all skills are locked behind ranks for whatever reason (S2 is actually good).
⚠️Passive
🔘Here we can find general adjustments for the valk defining usage and playability such as extra SP and extra DMG on QUA types.
💍Astral Ring
🔘Since the new suit is centered on dps instead supporting, skills are rather simplified and more inclusive compared to prevoius valks
Major Points
🔘Casting stellar outburst will also cast active and inflict bleed trauma as well as being a big source of hitcount
🔘Has 2,8s TFD on Stellar Shift trigger(AR QTE entry)
🔘Can make leader cast Stellar Shift twice when she's not leader (only theresa AoP is the other that does it for now)
🔘Heavenly Shift tag is owned by all LoA valks so far
🔘A new skill is locked, she will be relevant for the upcoming updates

🔻 WEAPONS🔻
Jadeite Sleeves
🔘Li's signature weapon, indeed really important since dps role means that it's certainly needed her most fitting weapon.
⭕ATK 294 | CRT 16
💥PRI ARM VERSION💥
Jadeite Sleeves: Windward
⭕ATK 430 | CRT 27
🔻STIGMAS🔻
Newfond Joys set
🔘This stigma greatly enhances Bleed dmg capabilities and astral ring bonuses, it's best on PS and most of her buffs are centered on Astral Ring mechanics, provides permanent self impair when LoA is active.
(2-set)
Total DMG taken by the character reduces by 20%. Peregrine Sword equip bonuses: Increases Bleed DMG taken by enemies on the field from the character by 10.0%. When Law of Ascension is activated, increases Crit DMG and Elemental DMG dealt by characters with World is My Oyster by 15.0%.
(3-set)
Increases Total DMG by 6.0%, and enemies on the field take 18.0% more Physical DMG from the character. Peregrine Sword equip bonuses: Increases the character's Bleed Trauma by 25%. After hitting enemies with QTE or Weapon Skill, upon entering Stellar Outburst or entering battle as Leader, all team members gain World is my Oyster for 25s. Retriggering refreshes the duration.
●When Law of Ascension is activated:
O All enemies on the field are impaired, reducing DEF by 55%.
O Characters with World is My Oyster deal 10% more Total DMG and 13% more Elemental DMG.
O During Stellar Outburst, enemies on the field take 10% more Total DMG, 8% more Physical DMG, and 15% more Elemental DMG from characters with World is My Oyster.
O When the character is not Leader, enemies on the field take 17% more Total DMG, 32% more Physical DMG, and 32% more Elemental DMG from the Leader character with World is My Oyster.
O When Peregrine Sword is leader and there are Physical DMG dealers on her team, she deals 6% more Bleed DMG.
🔘The very first thing i feel like highlight is: Extremely meta-effective. As the first P2 BIO valk, se ends up being the answer for the 2 teams that struggle the most at the moment which ofcourse are BIO and Bleed.
🔘About the valk: The valk isn't very flexible on her own, but LoA AR team playability makes up for that quite easily and pretty much everywhere, also as stated above if you care at all about meta, she's a must get, not really much to say.
🔘Poor time fracture and stand alone playability sould serve as usual negative sides of the valk but in addition, the next release is also going to be a BIO so we'll see how this will impact in the next version but generally, it's not a good thing for the prevoius valk to have another same type release so soon.
Final Votes
