At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Dr. Ratio
- “Syllogistic Paradox” dumps a huge single-target Imaginary multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
- Talent “Cogito, Ergo Sum” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs—stack management is the real rotation, not just Skill spam.
- Skill “Intellectual Midwifery” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- “Syllogistic Paradox” is single-target—multi-wave Pure Fiction asks the rest of the team to clear trash while Dr. Ratio focuses the elite.
- “Cogito, Ergo Sum” Follow-Ups only fire after the Charge/HP conditions are met—wasting Skill or over-healing can strand Dr. Ratio below the Follow-Up threshold for a full cycle.
- E0 without “Baptism of Pure Thought” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most The Hunt carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
Seele
- Ultimate “Butterfly Flurry” enters an Amplification / extra-turn damage window—most of the kit’s damage lives inside that window, not on filler Basics.
- “Resurgence” enters an Amplification / extra-turn damage window—cleaving a trash mob can snowball into another full Skill/Ult cycle.
- Skill “Sheathed Blade” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- E0 without “In the Night” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most The Hunt carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
- Extra-turn and single-target Ultimate patterns shine on bosses but stall in Pure Fiction unless adds die fast enough to proc the talent loop.
- Spamming “Sheathed Blade” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Seele is often the SP sink.
