Anby is an exceptional, reliable stunner available from the start, making her highly accessible for any account. She performs admirably at M0, providing consistent crowd control that remains viable throughout all endgame content.

Anby utilizes a fluid basic attack sequence punctuated by the powerful Thunderbolt follow-up to rapidly accumulate Daze. Her core passive incentivizes chaining special attacks after specific basic attack hits to maximize stun pressure. By balancing her Impact and energy generation, she effectively transitions enemies into a vulnerable state for follow-up damage.

Strengths

  • High invulnerability frames during EX Special and Dodge Counter allow for aggressive positioning.
  • Efficient Daze amplification following the 3rd hit of her basic attack combo.
  • Excellent synergy with the Cunning Hares faction for additional energy gain.
  • Fast attack animations make executing the Thunderbolt combo intuitive under pressure.
  • Consistent and reliable stun output regardless of target type or elemental weakness.

Weaknesses

  • Damage output is significantly lower than dedicated Attack-specialty agents.
  • Requires specific sequence execution to trigger optimal Daze, which can be interrupted.
  • Heavy reliance on EX Special usage to maintain maximum stun efficiency.
  • Limited personal survival utility outside of invulnerability frames.
  • Needs careful management of the 3rd-hit window to avoid missing key combo inputs.

Hellfire Gears

Impact

When off-field, the equipper's Energy Regen increases by 0.6/0.75/0.9/1.05/1.2 per second. When using an EX Special Attack, the equipper's Impact is increased by 10/12.5/15/17.5/20% for 10s, stacking up to 2 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Why it works —Provides consistent Impact boosts via EX Special usage and improves off-field energy economy.

4
The Restrained

Impact

When an attack hits an enemy, DMG and Daze from Basic Attacks increase by 6/7.5/9/10.5/12% for 8s, stacking up to 5 times. This effect can trigger at most once during each skill. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Why it works —Ideal for players focusing on basic attack strings to build Daze through sustained combos.

For every 10 Energy accumulated, the equipper's Impact is increased by 2/2.3/2.6/2.9/3.2%, stacking up to 8 times. After Energy is consumed, this bonus remains for 8 more seconds. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Why it works —A top-tier F2P option that rewards energy accumulation with reliable, stacking Impact bonuses.

Precious Fossilized Core

Impact

When the target's HP is no lower than 50%, the equipper inflicts 10/11.5/13/14.5/16% more Daze. When the target's HP is no lower than 75%, this bonus is further enhanced by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16%.

Why it works —Highly effective against high-health targets, offering a significant boost to Daze at the start of combat.

Energy Regen

Increases Electric DMG by 15/17.5/20/22/24%. When the equipper hits an enemy with Dodge Counter or Assist Attack, their Energy Generation Rate increases by 18/20.5/23/25/27.5% for 8s.

Why it works —Mainly benefits Electric DMG and energy efficiency, offering less direct Impact than preferred alternatives.
