type buff that cannot be dispelled.

  • Using Mercuria’s Buff incantations will gain 4/5/6 stacks of [Cosmic Energy].
  • Some Follow up Attacks are not counted as a skill card (from 37, Joe) will not increase the stacks of [Cosmic Energy].
  • Only ranked Follow up Attack will increase [Cosmic Energy] stack, for example, Follow up Attack from Lucy, Jiu Niangi, etc.
  • For each stack of [Cosmic Energy], increase the DMG Dealt of all allies.
  • The stacks will be calculated independently.
With Insight 1
  • When entering battle, gain 8 stacks of [Cosmic Energy] for 2 rounds.
  • For each ally with Natural Afflatus: Mineral, Star, Beast, Plant, receive +1 Moxie, up to 3 times.

  • is >= 9, grant Critical DMG +30% to all allies for 1 round.
  • is >= 16, grant an additional Incantation Might +20% to all allies for 2 rounds.

First skill
[Restless Souls]
skill-1
is a single target attack incatation
  • For each rank 2/3 incantation in the AP Area, deals an additional DMG.
  • Above effect will be calculated all incatations in the AP Area, regardless of order, which means this skill can be used in any order, first or later.
  • Restores 50% of Mercuria’s ATK as HP to the ally with the lowest HP.

With
[Self-Focusing]
skill-2
  • Increase Critical Rate of all allies for 2 rounds.
  • Mercuria receive 4/5/6 stacks of [Cosmic Energy].

  • Grants [Rank Up]

    Rank Up

    Pos Status

    When the incantation is subject to rank calculations, its rank is increased by an extra 1 (the incantation’s inherent effects are unaffected).
    to all allies for 2 rounds, this does not directly increase the strength of allies’s incantations, instead it will help increase the stacking of [Cosmic Energy] by counting the stars of casting incantations.
  • The effect [Rank Up] starts immediately after casting the skill, so use Mercuria’s Ultimate first, then use other incantations.

Operate / Rotation

DMG Bonus from [Cosmic Energy] will be calculated differently than other stats: Crit DMG and Incantation Might.
  • DMG Bonus will be calculated based on the amount of [Cosmic Energy] that Mercuria currently has.
  • Crit DMG and Incantation Might will be calculated based on the amount of stacks of [Cosmic Energy] at the start of the round.
To get 9 stacks of [Cosmic Energy] in a round, you just need to cast Mercuria’s Buff incantation or use 1 rank 2 incantation to activate Critical DMG buff in the next round.
To get 16 stacks of [Cosmic Energy] in a round, quite difficult, you can try to cast one of the following options:
  • 1 rank 1 Buff incantation + 2 rank 2 incantations + 1 rank 3 incantation
  • 1 rank 2 Buff incantation + 2 rank 2 incantations
  • 1 rank 2 Buff incantation + 1 rank 3 incantation
  • 1 rank 3 Buff incantation + 3 rank 1 incantations
Critical DMG buff can be activated quite often, but Incantation Might buff should only be activated after using Ultimate to reduce the conditions.

skill-2

Use ultimate when available.
skill-1
This skill can be used after Ultimate to deals DMG and gain Moxie
