At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Pela
- Ultimate “Zone Suppression” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “Frostbite” strips enemy buffs while dealing Ice damage—cleanse utility that most pure DPS kits simply do not have.
- Talent “Data Collecting” refunds a meaningful chunk of Energy inside the Skill—good play literally shortens Ult cooldown.
- Several Pela effects roll “base chance”—without enough Effect Hit Rate, Exposed/Shock/DEF shred simply misses on tanky bosses and the rotation feels empty.
- As a 4★ Nihility unit, Pela 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 “Frostbite” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Pela is often the SP sink.
Welt
- Ultimate “Synthetic Black Hole” hits every enemy on the field in one cast—level this before polishing filler traces.
- Skill “Edge of the Void” rolls a base-chance debuff that wants Effect Hit Rate—that is how Welt applies pressure between Ultimates.
- Talent “Time Distortion” When hitting an enemy that is already Slowed—ignore it and Welt plays like a worse generic Nihility unit.
- Several Welt effects roll “base chance”—without enough Effect Hit Rate, Exposed/Shock/DEF shred simply misses on tanky bosses and the rotation feels empty.
- If Energy or Skill Points starve “Synthetic Black Hole”, Welt spends turns on Basics and the kit’s advertised multipliers never show up on the combat log.
- Spamming “Edge of the Void” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Welt is often the SP sink.
