Elysian Realm Guide - Golden Di**
Welcome to my Elysian Realm guide for the new SP battlesuit Golden Diva or Eden! This guide is on the Elysian Realm specifically, and so may not apply to other game modes. I'll recommend which Elysia signets to aim for first, what other Flame-Chasers to go for, her playstyle, and even support valkyries and remembrance sigils.
Gear:
For weapons, I recommend her signature [Echo of Paradise], mainly because the weapon skill fits in very well with her attack cycle. Aside from that, lightning damage pistols include Thunder Kikaku, Fenghuang Pinions, and Hyper Railguns/Positron Blasters. Alternatively, take whatever has the highest Attack stat.
For stigmata, her signature set, Handel, is craftable in the foundry, and we got one free piece of the set. A good combo is Shakespeare T/Handel MB if you can only craft one. You can also use more offensive lightning damage sets if you have them, like Ishikawa, Monet, Darwin, etc.
I currently have S rank, which helps with some SP regen, obviously higher ranks are better, but I think SS rank is the most worth it as it gives 20 starting SP, allowing for much faster starts and less reliance on LE support.

Basic Summary
Golden Diva is an IMG-type, lightning damage dealer whose main damage comes from using the Ult to spam combo attacks.
Moves:
Chord & Variation -- Eden's combo attacks, can be triggered by holding the attack button when the bar at the bottom has 3 and 6 notes respectively. Can be triggered more easily during Sound of Nature.
Ensemble -- Triggered after Variation, Eden throws her pistols at the enemy. If the button is released with the proper timing, she unleashes Ensemble Playing, which is auto cast during Sound of Nature.
Sound of Nature -- Triggered by using the Ult, lasts 15s and allows easier casting of the above combo attacks, by just tapping the attack button. Can have 100% uptime, is not a burst mode.
Special Adjustments
Every character has certain special adjustments in Elysian Realm to make it both easier for newer players to use them and to allow them to fight solo in the realm.
Golden Diva's Special Adjustments are:
- Valkyrie stats and skill level are adjusted to Lv. 80 equivalent
This is the same for all Elysian Realm valkyries, to put them on a level playing field.
- Can choose two Elysia signets at the start
The same as all other playable Flame-Chasers, a very helpful bonus.
Exclusive Signets
Golden Diva's exclusive signets are mainly combo attack focused. Since the Ult allows easy use of combo attacks, the signets all buff the Ult as well.
Blessing of Cadenza
Blessing of Fugue
Blessing of Symphony
Blessing of Arioso
Blessing of Concerto
Recommended Signets
(These recommendations are just what I personally found fun, feel free to experiment and put your own recommendations in the comments below!)
- Exclusive Signets -
Most important:
Blessing of Cadenza and Blessing of Concerto
[Cadenza] is the most important, as it's the main damage dealer early on, as well as good SP regen. It works well both during Sound of Nature and outside of it, which also helps you get started quickly.
[Concerto] also helps with SP regen, though it works better during Sound of Nature where combo attacks are cast non-stop. It also gives a good Total DMG bonus buff, that functionally has 100% uptime.
Second choice:
Blessing of Symphony
[Symphony] does a lot of damage, but the SP cost means that it's not ideal to take as one of the first ones. However, once you get some SP regen signets and Eden's 2nd core, the SP cost becomes a benefit, which is why it's better to take later, around floor 7.
Last choice:
Blessing of Fugue >= Blessing of Arioso
From what can tell, [Fugue] doesn't affect the thrown pistols from [Symphony], doing a damage test gave the same numbers with and without [Fugue]. However, it still buffs the damage from the thrown pistols of Ensemble, which helps a lot. It also increases combo hits, which can help with Su's signets.
[Arioso] is a simple flat Total DMG bonus, and it can stack up to 120%. I think [Fugue] is better since it also helps combo hits, but this is just my preference. It is definitely worth taking if you have the chance, since the multiplier is much higher than other standard Flame-Chaser signets
- Flame Chaser Signets -
Eden (2nd Core)
Between Eden's Ult costing 125 SP and [Symphony]'s thrown pistol attack, you'll be spending (and needing) a lot of SP, making Eden's 2nd core great. 2 important normal signets are SP regen per second and starting SP -- if you can get enough early SP, you can switch out LE support for someone else. If you still need SP regen, the enhanced signet for regen is also good, otherwise the resistance lowering one is good.
Su (2nd Core)
Eden can stack combo hits quite fast, especially with [Blessing of Fugue], so Su is pretty good. Su has some good offensive signets, and a very good SP regen signet, as long as you can trigger it frequently. If you can't, take some combo hit buffs to help. The enhanced signets are unnecessary.
Kevin (1st Core)
Eden uses her Ult quite frequently, so Kevin's signets are quite helpful. The only issue is the duration of the buffs, so the enhanced signet for extended duration is super important. Even then, Kevin's signets can also be switched out for others depending on preference. The specific benefit of Kevin's signets is insane burst damage for the first few seconds when casting an Ult, where you should also stack support valkyrie and ELF skills.
Others
Kalpas (2nd Core)
Eden is basically invincible, meaning lowered HP from Kalpas' core isn't dangerous at all. Meanwhile, unless you're bringing Blood Rose support, she won't lose any HP to trigger certain signets, so keep that in mind.
Usually I would also recommend Hua's, but Eden spends a lot of time standing still, which leads to her taking hits, even if they don't do damage.
Griseo
Griseo is best if you have Eden's signature weapon because the weapon skill aligns with the attack cycle, allowing you to apply Yellow/Red paint together easily. Otherwise, depending on the weapon you have, Griseo may or may not be worth it.
- Playstyle -
3x normal attacks > Chord combo atk > 3x normal > Variation and Ensemble combo atks
Weapon skill if you have it + LE support
Cast Ult and spam combo attacks
Recast weapon skill once Sound of Nature is over, then recast Ult
Repeat
(The cycle may need to be slightly modified depending on your SP regen and weapon skill)
If you have enough SP to cast the Ult without LE, you can switch her out for another support.
If you have Kevin's core, remember to also cast ELF Ults, Flame-Chaser supports and Valkyrie supports when casting the Ult for maximum damage
- Support Valkyries -
Start with LE and VC, once you feel you have enough starting SP you can switch out LE.
At the last shop right before the final boss, switch out VC.
Suggested supports for end-game are AE, Blood Rose or Haxxor
- Remembrance Sigils -
General: Start with Eden's [Gold Goblet], change according to what you need, and end with [Tin Flask]/[MOTHs Insignia]
Support: Elysia's [Because of You] --> Eden's [Dreamful Gold]
Eden is honestly so pretty, she's up there with Hua as one of my favourite Flame-Chasers. I love the musical motifs whenever she casts skills, especially the one during Sound of Nature. While doing the testing for this I actually impulse crafted one of her stigmata, she's just so nice to use.
I just got a summer job (like literally just) so I'll have slightly less time to work one these, but it should be fine since I got the new update content out of the way. I'll be working on an AKA guide next, as per request, but I welcome any other requests/suggestions!
