At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Asta
- Ultimate “Astral Blessing” Increases SPD of all allies by 57 for 2 turn(s)—time it for the carry’s damage window instead of casting on cooldown out of habit.
- Skill “Meteor Storm” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Astrometry” implants element Weakness so Break stays online off-element—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- Buff windows on “Astral Blessing” are short—casting them when the carry cannot attack wastes the CRIT DMG/ATK amp for a full cycle.
- Asta’s Skill is often the expensive part of the rotation; SP-negative teams force Basic ATKs and you lose the advance/amp that made the unit worth playing.
- As a 4★ Harmony unit, Asta is easy to gear for early/mid game but usually loses the niche race to a modern limited option once that banner is built.
Sunday
- Ultimate “Ode to Caress and Cicatrix” refunds a meaningful chunk of Energy inside the Skill—time it for the carry’s damage window instead of casting on cooldown out of habit.
- “Benison of Paper and Rites” action-advances an ally with a damage amp attached—one Skill Point buys a full extra carry turn.
- Sunday’s memosprite/summon adds a second actor that hits and breaks without always spending the team’s Skill Points.
- Buff windows on “Ode to Caress and Cicatrix” are short—casting them when the carry cannot attack wastes the CRIT DMG/ATK amp for a full cycle.
- Sunday’s Skill is often the expensive part of the rotation; SP-negative teams force Basic ATKs and you lose the advance/amp that made the unit worth playing.
- Spamming “Benison of Paper and Rites” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Sunday is often the SP sink.
