Velina
Velina is a premiere off-field Wind Anomaly agent, essential for teams requiring consistent Windswept uptime and team-wide Anomaly Proficiency buffs. Pull if you main Wind-based anomaly squads; otherwise, she is a luxury support for specific meta compositions.
Velina functions as an off-field Anomaly agent who utilizes EX Special Attacks to maintain persistent Wind-based debuffs. Her kit revolves around resource management of her 'Windbloom' gauge and 'Windbite' points, which are generated through squad-wide Vortex triggers. She provides significant utility by deploying 'Sweeping Cyclone' to maintain field pressure and apply Anomaly buildup while the primary DPS remains on-field.

Anomaly Proficiency
The equipper's Anomaly Proficiency increases by 70/80/90/100/110. When the equipper's EX Special Attack deals Wind DMG, the DMG dealt by their Vortex and Windswept increases by 7/8/9/10/11% for 40s, stacking up to 2 times. Repeated triggers reset the duration. This effect can trigger once per skill use. At 2 stacks, all squad members gain 60/69/78/87/96 Anomaly Proficiency. Only one instance of this effect can exist in the same squad.
Why it works —Perfect synergy providing necessary Anomaly Proficiency and buffing team-wide stats.
Energy Regen
While off-field, the equipper's Energy Regen increases by 0.6/0.75/0.9/1.05/1.2 per second. When hitting an enemy with an EX Special Attack or Assist Attack, the equipper's DMG increases by 3.5/4.4/5.2/6.1/7%, stacking up to 10 times and lasting for 6s. This effect can trigger once every 0.3s. While off-field, the stack effect is doubled. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Upon obtaining the DMG increase effect, if the number of current stacks is greater than or equal to 5, then the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency increases by 50/62/75/87/100. This Anomaly Proficiency increase does not stack and lasts for 6s.
Why it works —Excellent Energy Regen for maintaining EX skill uptime and scaling off-field damage.

After Sweeping Cyclone triggers the Chromatic Tint effect, it can accumulate the corresponding attribute's Anomaly Buildup. The buildup accumulated by this attack is excluded from Anomaly DMG calculations. The DMG increase effects of Velina's Windswept and Vortex from Additional Ability: Tea Party Etiquette are further increased by 15%.
