✦ OVERVIEW

✦ RANK-UP POWER SPIKES

Elysia can be acquired from War Treasury and Elysian Realm shop. She unlocks a very important skill at S2-rank which makes enemy take more damage from Elysia - this is a unique multiplier, so it's very strong. SS-rank unlocks more damage and give her more sp recovery. She only gets better with every rank increase.

✦ SKILL OVERVIEW

In this section, I will be going through some of Elysia's skills. This serves as a reference for players. If you are already familiar with her abilities, you can skip to the next sections.

Elysia's skills are very simple and straightforward. Let's have a quick rundown on them and then proceed to [How to Play] section.

✦ BASIC ATK ✦

Basic ATK deals Physical DMG and applies [Crystalline Seed] mark on enemies (I'll explain the mark soon). Most of your damage comes from Charged ATK, so you will rarely use Basic ATK.

✦QTE: Crane's Dance✦

Con**tion: Time slow. Elysia swoops in to deal Physical DMG and instantly applies 4 [Crystalline Seed] (max stack). The mark is very important so you always want to enter through QTE.

✦ CRYSTALLINE SEED ✦

[Crystalline Seed] is a VERY IMPORTANT debuff that can only be applied with Elysia's Basic ATK (1 stack per sequence) and QTE (4 stacks). Crystalline Seed maxes at 4 stacks.

Effects of Crystalline Seed:

- Ellie's Charged ATK [Cupid's Bolt] detonates the seeds, dealing Physical damage (does not consume seed). The detonation spreads to all enemies nearby with the seed too.

- [S2-rank] Enemies with [Crystalline Seed] takes 3% more Physical DMG for every stack. At 4 stacks, they take an additional 4% more Physical DMG. A total of 16% more Physical DMG taken by the enemy. This is an independent effect, which means it's a very strong multiplier.

- [SS-rank] Elysia deal 15% bonus Total DMG to enemies with Crystalline Seed

- [SS-rank] Teammate attacks against enemies with Crystalline Seed restore 0.5 sp for Elysia. CD: **

✦INFATUATION METER✦

Ellie has a special Infatuation meter that is used for Charged ATK. The meter recovers over time and fully recover after using Ultimate.

- Normal State: Max Infatuation: 400 meter, recover 30 meter/s, recover 100 meter from weapon skill

- Flawless Dome (Ult): Max Infatuation: 600 meter, recover 60 meter/s, recover 200 meter from weapon skill

- [S2-rank] Miss Pink Elf starts with 400 meter.

✦WEAPON SKILL✦

Ellie's bow weapon skill has two effects:

- Within 5s of casting weapon skill, Ultimate sp cost is reduced from 100 sp to 70 sp! Remember to use weapon skill first before using ultimate!

- Weapon skill recovers 100 Infatuation (200 in Flawless Dome) as mentioned before.

- Grants 10% Crit Rate and 15% Total DMG (this bonus is shared with evasion skill and Ultimate, respectively)

✦ ULTIMATE: Flawless Dome ✦

[Cost: 100sp (70sp after using weapon skill), CD:20s]

Elysia's ultimate creates a Flawless Dome which enhances her abilities. Her Charged ATK can now ri*****t! Boing boing!

- During Flawless Dome, Elysia gains 30% bonus Physical DMG and 10% Crit Rate

- [SS-rank] Ri*****t deals 20% bonus Total DMG

✦ CHARGED ATK: Cupid's Bolt✦

Elysia's Charged ATK consumes 100 Infatuation to release Cupid's Bolt. It has two sequence. Third sequence is unlocked during Flawless Dome.

- Cupid's Bolt deals Physical DMG and detonates Crystalline Seed on enemies. (as mentioned before)

- During Flawless Dome, Cupid's Bolt can ri*****t (as mentioned before)

- Charged ATK boosts Physical DMG by 11%/15%(SS1-rank)

- [SSS-rank] Charged ATK gain 15% Crit DMG. Chain detonation of Crystalline Seed gain 20% bonus Total DMG

✦REVIVE: Candle's Fragrance✦

If Elysia takes fatal damage, a flawless crystal is created to revive her. Somewhat useful for Elysian Realm mode and for beginners.

- Cooldown: 3 minutes. A crystal orbiting Elysia indicates that the revive skill is available.

✦ HOW TO PLAY

Most of Elysia damage output comes from the Flawless Dome state. You get 70 sp, use ult, hold ATK ****on, hit enemies until Flawless Dome ends. Basically, her playstyle is similar to Burst Mode valks, minus the Burst Mode status.

SEQUENCE EXAMPLE:

This sequence example uses Herrscher of Sentience and Starlit Astrologos as support

Herrscher of Sentience and Starlit Astrologos Ult > Elysia QTE (apply 4 Crystalline Seed) > Weapon skill (reduce ult sp cost) > Ultimate > Charged ATK full 3 shots > Charged ATK full 3 shots > Weapon Skill (restore Infatuation meter) > Charged ATK full 3 shots > Clean-up or rotate again

✦ BEST EQUIPMENT

G4 ELYSIA STIGMA IS FARMABLE. SO JUST FARM IT. THE OTHER STIGMA LISTED ARE JUST TRANSITIONAL OPTIONS IF YOU ALREADY OWN THEM

SHIELD BREAK

Elysia-Herrscher of Sentience-Carole

✦ CONCLUSION

As a farmable valkyrie, Miss Pink Elf is very very good.

- She currently has top score on SSS MHT3B in Arena. In Abyss, there are Shadow Knight and Ranged MHT3B but MPE is generally really good, even until Nirvana. For RedLotus, even more options open for her against neutral bosses like Abyss Otto, HoD Minion and more.

- G4 Elysia stigma is also good, and can be used on other Physical DPS as a transitional stigma (Palatinus Equinox, Carole, Fervent Tempo, etc)

She's very cute. Just get her from War Treasury and Elysian Realm shop!
