At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Aglaea
- Ultimate “Dance, Destined Weaveress” restores HP across the threatened allies—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “Rise, Exalted Renown” restores HP across the threatened allies—Outgoing Healing and HP relics convert directly into safer DPS turns.
- Aglaea’s memosprite/summon adds a second actor that hits and breaks without always spending the team’s Skill Points.
- E0 without “Time Woven Into Gold” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Remembrance carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Dance, Destined Weaveress”, Aglaea spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Spamming “Rise, Exalted Renown” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Aglaea is often the SP sink.
Castorice
- Ultimate “Doomshriek, Dawn's Chime” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- “Silence, Wraithfly's Caress” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
- Talent “Desolation Across Palms” The maximum limit of "Newbud" is related to the levels of all characters on the battlefield—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- E0 without “Make Farewells More Beautiful” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Remembrance carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- HP-spend skills mean Castorice can soft-lock if sustain is weak or if a healer tops them up at the wrong time and breaks a low-HP / Charge condition.
- Spamming “Silence, Wraithfly's Caress” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Castorice is often the SP sink.
