Soldier 11
Soldier 11 is a reliable Fire main DPS who thrives in rhythm-based combat, making her excellent for players who enjoy active timing mechanics. She is best suited for accounts lacking consistent Fire damage or those who value her specific OBOLS Squad synergy.
Soldier 11 revolves around her Fire Suppression mechanic, which requires precise timing to trigger empowered slashes during her Basic Attack string. By maintaining this rhythm, she deals significantly increased damage while unlocking her full basic attack potential [L87, L102]. Her kit is further augmented by Alert Stance and block counters, allowing her to stay aggressive even under pressure from enemy attacks [L107, L137].

CRIT Rate
CRIT DMG increases by 50/57.5/65/72.5/80%. When the equipper enters the battlefield, or activates a Chain Attack or Ultimate, they gain 1 stack of Heartstring. Each stack of Heartstring allows the equipper's Chain Attack and Ultimate to ignore 12.5/14.5/16.5/18.5/20% of the target's Fire RES, stacking up to 2 times and lasting 30s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.
Why it works —Heartstring Nocturne provides massive CRIT DMG and essential Fire RES penetration, perfectly aligning with her burst windows.
CRIT Rate
Increases CRIT Rate by 15/17/19/21/23%. When the equipper deals DMG with a Basic Attack or EX Special Attack, they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper's Electric DMG by 12.5/14.5/16.5/18.5/20%, up to 2 stacks. Each stack lasts 40s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately. Can trigger once per use of a skill. At 2 stacks, the wearer's Basic Attack and Ultimate DMG ignore 20/23/26/29/32% of enemy DEF.
Why it works —Cordis Germina offers excellent CRIT Rate and DEF shred at full stacks, providing massive value despite the Electric bonus incompatibility.
CRIT Rate
Increases CRIT DMG by 45/51.75/58.5/65.25/72%. When using an EX Special Attack, Chain Attack, or Ultimate to deal Ice DMG, the equipper gains the Absolute Zero Death Sentence effect for 3s. While Absolute Zero Death Sentence is active, the character ignores 25/28.75/32.5/36.25/40% of the enemy's DEF when landing a hit.
ATK%
CRIT DMG is increased by 30/34.5/39/43.5/48%. When the equipper lands a hit with a Basic Attack, Special Attack, or Aftershock, they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper's CRIT DMG by an additional 10/11.5/13/14.5/16%, stacking up to 3 times. The effect lasts for 30s, with each stack's duration calculated separately, and can only be triggered once per use of a skill. With all 3 stacks, the equipper's Electric DMG increases by 20/23/26/29/32%.
ATK%
Upon hitting an enemy with a Basic Attack, Dash Attack, or Dodge Counter, the equipper's ATK increases by 3.5/4.4/5.2/6/7% for 8s, stacking up to 8 times. This effect can trigger once every 0.5s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
Why it works —The Brimstone is a solid alternative that rewards sustained field time with stacking ATK buffs.
