Strengths & Weaknesses

Evanescia

Strengths
  • Ultimate “Swordsong: Absolution Denied” Deals Physical DMG equal to 200% of Evanescia's ATK to all enemy targets—level this before polishing filler traces.
  • “Discipline: Final Verdict” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies, so adjacent elites still take meaningful chip without waiting for Ultimate.
  • Talent “Youth: Halcyon Evermore” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs—stack management is the real rotation, not just Skill spam.
Weaknesses
  • “Youth: Halcyon Evermore” Follow-Ups only fire after the Charge/HP conditions are met—wasting Skill or over-healing can strand Evanescia below the Follow-Up threshold for a full cycle.
  • E0 without “Until the Flowers Bloom Again” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Elation carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
  • Spamming “Discipline: Final Verdict” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Evanescia is often the SP sink.

Sparxie

Strengths
  • Ultimate “Party's Wildin' and Camera's Rollin'” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
  • Skill “Boom! Sparxicle's Poppin'” Start a livestream to turn Basic ATK into "Bloom!—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
  • Talent “Sleight of Sparx Hand” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—ignore it and Sparxie plays like a worse generic Elation unit.
Weaknesses
  • E0 without “Welcome to the Cosmic City” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Elation carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
  • If Energy or Skill Points starve “Party's Wildin' and Camera's Rollin'”, Sparxie spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
  • Spamming “Boom! Sparxicle's Poppin'” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Sparxie is often the SP sink.
