Strengths & Weaknesses

March 7th

Strengths
  • “March 7th, the Apex Heroine” dumps a huge single-target Imaginary multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
  • Skill “Master, It's Tea Time!” Designates one ally (excluding this unit) as "Shifu" and increases "Shifu"'s SPD by 12.0%—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
  • Talent “Master, I've Ascended!” After Shifu uses an attack or Ultimate, March 7th gains up to 1 point of Charge each time—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
Weaknesses
  • “March 7th, the Apex Heroine” is single-target—multi-wave Pure Fiction asks the rest of the team to clear trash while March 7th focuses the elite.
  • As a 4★ The Hunt unit, March 7th 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 “Master, It's Tea Time!” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—March 7th is often the SP sink.

Topaz & Numby

Strengths
  • Ultimate “Turn a Profit!” action-advances an ally with a damage amp attached—level this before polishing filler traces.
  • Talent “Trotter Market!?” fires Follow-Up ATKs off ally Basics—damage keeps flowing even when Topaz & Numby is not the active turn.
  • Skill “Difficulty Paying?” fires Follow-Up ATKs off ally Basics—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
Weaknesses
  • Follow-Ups from “Trotter Market!?” need allies who actually Basic ATK on schedule—freeze/CC on the team stalls Topaz & Numby’s off-turn damage.
  • E0 without “Worrisome, Blissful” 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.
  • Spamming “Difficulty Paying?” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Topaz & Numby is often the SP sink.
