At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Clara
- Ultimate “Promise, Not Command” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “Svarog Watches Over You” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Because We're Family” Under the protection of Svarog, DMG taken by Clara when hit by enemy attacks is reduced by 10%—ignore it and Clara plays like a worse generic Destruction unit.
- E0 without “Something Irreplaceable” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Destruction carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Promise, Not Command”, Clara spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Spamming “Svarog Watches Over You” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Clara is often the SP sink.
Misha
- “G—Gonna Be Late!” dumps a huge single-target Ice multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- “R—Room Service!” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
- Talent “Horological Escapement” refunds a meaningful chunk of Energy inside the Skill—good play literally shortens Ult cooldown.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “G—Gonna Be Late!”, Misha spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- As a 4★ Destruction unit, Misha 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 “R—Room Service!” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Misha is often the SP sink.
