At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Firefly
- Ultimate “Fyrefly Type-IV: Complete Combustion” enters Complete Combustion with full action advance, SPD, and Break-boosted Enhanced attacks—most of the kit’s damage lives inside that window, not on filler Basics.
- Skill “Order: Aerial Bombardment” spends a large HP chunk to refund Energy and advance action—the rotation wants controlled self-damage, not panic healing that cancels the state.
- Talent “Chrysalid Pyronexus” scales DMG Reduction with low HP and locks max reduction in the burst state—survivability is written into the damage plan, not bolted on later.
- E0 without “Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest” 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.
- HP-spend skills mean Firefly 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.
- Firefly wants Break Effect supports and Toughness bars that can actually be broken; into awkward weakness line-ups the Complete Combustion / Break loop loses most of its damage.
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.
