Strengths
- Ultimate “Glacial Cascade” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “The Power of Cuteness” applies a Shield that absorbs incoming damage—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Girl Power” applies a Shield that absorbs incoming damage—ignore it and March 7th plays like a worse generic Preservation unit.
- Technique “Freezing Beauty” opens by hitting the pack on pull-in—use it before every MoC wave, not only in the overworld.
Weaknesses
- Shield value falls when content is a pure damage race or when the carry already has invulnerability frames—over-building March 7th’s relics delays the DPS sets that actually end cycles.
- As a 4★ Preservation unit, March 7th is easy to gear for early/mid game but usually loses the niche race to a modern limited option once that banner is built.
- Spamming “The Power of Cuteness” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—March 7th is often the SP sink.
- If “Glacial Cascade” is still offline at the end of a MoC cycle, the build is usually Energy/ERR or rotation order—not a missing CRIT roll.
Trace Priority
The Power of Cuteness carries most of the kit’s damage or utility—level this first.
Glacial Cascade supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Girl Power supports the main rotation—raise after the top priority traces.
Frigid Cold Arrow is last priority outside of filling trace materials.
Stat Priority
Open with Technique if it helps, spend Skill to advance the kit’s resource, and hold Ultimate for the damage or buff window. Exact teammate order lands in Phase 2.
Open supports first, then spend the carry’s Skill/Ult inside the buff window. Exact order varies by the team tab above.
