CE is skalter but with a different focus. Skalter S1 - focuses on burst self survival (self max HP increase) and can support others in her range with a summon to grant range beyond her area. Maximizes regen and share self HP pool. Good for supporting few allies. CE S3 - focuses on burst party survival (party max HP increase rather than self) and support others in her range. Maximizes regen and HP distribution. Good for supporting many allies. Skalter S2 - Unlimited duration skill, focuses equally on ATK/DEF/slight regen increase. Summon can allow others to benefit beyond her range. Faster activation. CE S1 - Unlimited duration skill, focuses heavily on regen and particle accelerating speed in her range and within the 8 surrounding tiles. Skalter S3 - burst damage skill, heavily boosts ATK, applies true damage AOE DoT to enemies in range and within her summon range, loses HP over time. Summon allows true damage on the map. CE S2 - burst damage skill, heavily boosts ATK, applies single target true damage bind to enemies in the outer ring range, loses talent accelerating regen speed on allies Basically a sidegrade.
Let's not forget that Skalter is a limited unit, and not a fresh one. Many players who started playing a couple years after the beginning might not have her. But I agree, the biggest and most important power Skalter has over CE is flexibility due to her seaborn, that allows you to make very cool moves and bursts. S3 can work as an amazing saving ability, I tested and lvl7 skill can easily let you survive Talulah's firestorm and it used to be a challenge where you'd usually grab Nightingale on. She won't be as good as proper medics in terms of healing, given her unusual range, but she can serve very well. And I absolutely prefer CE's S2 over Skadi's S3. Especially the fact that she won't suicide. When you have high-end content you have to plan every single unit, and if you know that you have to provide even a tiny bit of healing to a unit that would die otherwise... It can put quite a few sticks into your wheels.
@@eufrosniad994 if you have him, sure. But it was not the point, it was an example of how strong of a surviving tool it is when she can allow you facetank it without any extra RES or whatever
Her True Damage was absurdly powerful even in E1, so I had to build her of course. Pairing her with IS collectibles for ASPD was super fun as the thingys circle in light speed, killing everyone.
Much love for this, was looking for a video that explained Not-Theresa in detail when Chapter 14 launched but couldn't find one that went this in-depth. Danke based Dagyo.
6:45 I actually used Skadi's 1st skill very recently, during Chapter 14 in fact yeah, actually they're pretty similar. The difference is that Skadi's has immediate redistribution while Civilight Eterna's is periodic. Also, one of them is slightly better when you have HP tanks while the other is a little better with squishy units
Since I sparked Skalter, I will put CE on the side as Skalter S2 and S3 already covers 99% of the scenario in this game. The extra range is really helpful for classes that position themselves further away like Ambusher to benefit from the buff and it's hard to compete with that. Her S3 is also really good when you consider how it can easily be comboed with any skill that work like Virtuosa S2 in the future so it has a bright future ahead of it with any 6* ritualist. Should the game ever release a physical boss version of Harold who can nuke 3k the entire map if you mess up then I will consider building CE just for her S3.
I used Skalter S1M3 before. The healing is good... I can say quite similar to CE. But the problem with her S1 is that whenever ally takes too much damage, she will die. High AOE dmg is bad if you use Skalter S1
She can solo DPS almost every bosses easily with her S2 thanks to her bind keeping them in place so that the 1K~ish True Damage DPS eats away at their HP bar wtihtout a single f_ck given about their defensive stats or Physical/Art dodge (that including Patriot (as long as you bait his spear with another op) and the Sanguinarch). And she does that all while buffing nearby allies and without killing herself for it (looking at you, Skalter). All that on a 35s cooldown. Ofc, you should build her.
Oh, and I'm saying that as someone that pulled (and built) Skalter WAAAAY back when it was her own banner. But considering Civi can offer similar buff WHILE also DPSing with TRUE DAMAGE in the meantime AND offering constant CC on top of that... meanwhile Skalter True Damage DPS is hilariously low (even if her seaborn DPS the same target as her). It's gotta sting hard when a welfare operator is a better version than a limited operator... The only thing that Skalter has over her is that with S2 activated, she regen 80ish HP, while Civi regen 40ish HP (60ish when a particle collides with an ally)... But honestly, that a considerably shitty consolation prize when Medics exists... (unless your squads are full of Mushas, Dreadnoughts and Summoners)
@@Shelee69 Nah, there was only ONE available place for a buffer in my squad, and Civi unapolegetically stole it from Ela and Skalter, as she's more versatile (and usefull against bosses) than those two combined. Oh, and I forgot to mention that she ALSO paasively make the ENTIRE squad tougher to kill for ALL Sarkaz enemies, just by being deployed (don't even need to be in her range)... With the latest side events and main chapters ALL throwing Sarkaz enemies at you, it's a huge blessing.
I am going to spark skalter but I am still going to build and use CE because that was my intention from the start and I didn't wanted to spark at first (Naughty cockroach forced me to do 300), she is S2M3 working on S3M3 now. I think she is a interesting unit and it's cool that we get a viable bard other then skalter for free.
I don't have Skadi alter, so, it's a no-brainer for me. And even if I had, who wouldn't love Theresa? I'm glad they included her as a playable character.
In the process of building her out of obligation from the mess that was babel/chapter 14. And im already loving her s2, its been a big help in some stages.
I personally didn't use Her S3 as much as her S1 and S2, so I leave it at lvl 7. But considering her S3M3 improve her SP cost by a lot, I might want to M3 her S3 as well. She will be my first M9
Thanks for the vid. I luckily got skalter from this banner and was wondering whom should i build. Will build my skalter first then theresa if had more mats
This might be the best place to ask, so: Does the healing from both stack on the same targets? I know that inspire effects cancel one another out, but does this also apply to their healing passive? For example, I know that Perfumer and Skadi's healing passive do stack, and I am pretty sure that Angelina's talent also does, but how about multiple bards? I likewise need confirmation as to wether or not different aspects of inspire skills cancel one-another out. For example, if an operator is within rage of Skadi S2 and Theresa S1, will they then get the superior healing of Theresa and the Att/def boost off of skadi, or will the last activated skill completely override all effects of the other? While I can and will test this, I can at best eyeball wether or not the healing effects stack.
If the particles no longer collide with allied operators in s2 how does the module help with s2 healing mentioned at 5:20, since you mention while both using and off skill?
She doesn't heal with her second skill that means she becomes useless waiting for the skill to charge and the module helps her overcome this weakness by increasing her talent's healing
I'll build Teresa ASAP (she is next in my building list order after the actual one: Ninetingale) mostly because I haven't Skalter and I need someone to heal Mudrock and dragons :)
5:55 you forget to mention that skadi's third skill the damage stacks between her range and the seaborns range on cells where their range overlap. so she will be able to do a lot more damage to enemies in that area than just theresa with her own range. skadi actually wins that comparison imo. because she deals double true damage on overlapping tiles and the extra uptime for theresa is less than double, skadi does more total damage in the skill duration. she actually only requires one heal to not die if she isnt hit so even just a quick lancet 2 drop will fix that issue
No math, pure words. Let me tell you something. If you overlap range of skadi and seaborn you get a total of 70%atk times two, means 140% atk as true damage per second. Skadi alter has 368+50 attack once maxed, means you deal 568.5 dps over 20 seconds with 35 seconds cd. Civi deals 275% of her 369+30 attack every second over 35 seconds, means 1097.25 true damage dps over 35 seconds, means its skadi's 11704 damage when enemy can just walk out of range against Civi's 38412.5 true damage with unlimited bind. Even if Skadi is dealing damage to three units at the same time(which is oh so generous) she's not outdamaging Civi. All this while Civi continues to heal herself and provedes just 50 less attack to allies, and she doesn't require a lancet-2 just to support a single skill(because lancet has 240 s cd, you can only deploy it once, and if it dies, skadi can't use her skill. Wow.)
@@ignis5778 i went from the info he shared on screen assuming the damage potential was similar with skadi having slightly higher attack. didnt quite take into consideration the extra % of theresa's skill. you are right. the point about lancet was more that having one heal happen isnt really an issue most of the time so the downside is easily averted with stuff you tend to have on your team anyway, like a source of healing. unless its high risk CC or something like that. but yes theresa deals more damage here
@@nuginurohman7613 I have yet to see a situation where you need aoe true damage. Closest thing to that will be new ch-14 shield guards and Manfred's slugs, but slugs only have 1k defence or so, not so much you can't kill them with physical damage, and half of the caster roster has resist shred or goos synergy with pramanix if you struggle really hard. Against shield guards from ch-14, I can only say that Theresa's single target damage will be more beneficial there: there are no stages where you are rushed down by those shield guards and can damage more then two at the same time with skalter. Another point is Theresa's second passive is full at work on these stages. I honestly think that skalter has a lot of unrealised potential due to having no situations where she is the best pick in terms of damage dealers
@@ignis5778 I'm just saying that because of the difference between AOE and ST, of course the damage will be different Do you expect AOE to be as big as ST damage? except it's an anomaly called wisadel and no one uses s3 skadi for true damage anyway Mostly use it for buffs that can be put anywhere on the map
> Getting skadi is chance based or as expensive as 300 Draw. not to mention it only came on certain banner. so Not all people can have her >> Everyone can get Theresa if they play the game hard enough Theresa win for me (had to this banner Spark for Texalt)
One thing that skalter's S1 does that CE's S3 can't is protect squishies against burst damage. I used it a lot in the chapter with the cannon, she can protect anyone with at least 1501HP from getting one shot by the cannon. I consider her skill as a 50% damage reduction on anyone in range, even against TRUE damage. It also offers good healing over time, almost the same as CE's S3.
I've always had Skadi but I built Civilight anyways and I actually like her a lot more. Her kit is much more fun to use instead of Skadi's boring drag and drop S2. Permanent bind, true damage, an attack buff that almost matches Skadi S3, what's not to like? And CE's skill 3 is just as good, practically Nightingale S3 levels of damage mitigation. It helped me out a ton in the latest story H stages.
Theresa is stupidly cracked at IS with her S2. well that is if you get the proper buffs and the Civlight Eterna relic which boost the already good true damage by a lot. Or you can use her S3 with healing buffs; in short she is really REALLY useful at IS.
I have Skalter lv 90 M9 and while her skills are good, are usually have a hard time justifying bringing her over another operator. However CE skill 3 is a complete game changer for some levels, I find her to be more useful (for my personal team and use case at least). Looking forward to her module.
i test 2 bards in a single run edit: neither of them received Inspiration to each other meaning bards are unaffected by any insipration type buffs whether the source is from their own or from other operators
If you already have Skalter with skill mastery and you feel resources are limited, there's really no need to build CE. However, if you're a new player who has never had Skalter or particularly likes CE, it's worth doing it. For those who unexpectedly pulled Skalter and are unsure whether to invest in Skalter or CE, from the personal experience of a player with Skalter at M9 and CE at M6 (mastery 3 on skills 2-3), I think it's enough to only level Skalter's skill 2 to M3. But if you prefer CE, that's fine too. In the long run, there will be plenty of other units that can fulfill the roles of these two.
15%? That's make total of 65% damage reduction on ISO 3 & 4 with one specific item. That's mean you take 35% damage instead of 50%. Basically 15% but with item effect felt double
The video makes it seems like Skalter is only good on convenience in passing, but trust me, that convenience is HUGE QoL. CE's peak healing and peak ATK buff are both higher than Skadi's S2, but you really feel that DEF buff and 100% uptime on anni-like maps. And if you don't need the uptime, her S3 is better than CE. Skadi is curved in all the right places. And yes her S3 is lower true damage, but have you considered that this is GLOBAL range? And true AoE on top of that. If you ever wish you had pulled Texalter or RYato, then just have your Gravel hold an elite and pull up with her Seaborn. Plus, you'd be surprised how many key targets often sit around on the map with huge "deal with me or suffer" sign on their back. If you don't have Skadi, NTR, or Surtr to drop and assassinate them, you can drop Melantha and the Seaborn and start pulsing true damage while buffing Melantha. CE would need to drop herself next to those key threats, which is not ideal because key threats usually hang far away from the main choke/defensible point, where you'd want to put the main bulk of your squad.
I built Theresa even though I have Skalter because WIFE and useful buffs. There are plenty of events where passive low healing and buffs are useful, it's part of why Perfumer is such a great operator despite her star rating. You can also tell she was designed for this chapter and Babel, since there are plenty of enemies with absurd defensive stats but low HP (true damage wrecks them). Ling, Mudrock and Penance are some of the top tier operators who get so much better from Skalter/Theresa, since they cover their main weakness while making them stronger. Mudrock must also become absurdly tanky with Theresa on the field, since she alreaady has an anti-sarkaz trait and a damage reduction module.
It's not a question of meta, it's a question of possession of heart and empathy. After Babel and chapter 14 you're obligated to raise Her Highness. If not, you're a callous monster. I already have her E2Lvl90 M9 and appointed as an assistant. Absolutely no regrets for my lovely Queen. Uncontested best character in the game.
Skalter first skill is incredibly strong but it's the same deal as theresa s1 and s3, it does NOTHING but make you survive easier and that's vastly less applicable than permanent stat buffs.
I m9ed my skalter and honestly, her s1 compared to theresa's s3 is kinda weird; skalter's s1 does the same thing but it doesnt need more units to take the hit since 50% of the dmg taken goes to skalter who also buffs 170% of her max hp and has better healing to make up for the bigger hp which means, you dont exactly want to put her near a lot of units taking dmg since it all goes to her, you want to protect some ops from a massive hit coming at you. She also has the summon that can make her protect ops far away from global atks but its more useful on other skills. meanwhile theresa wants the most ops near her so she can do stuff like healing surtr almost forever using shared hp. tldr would be: use skalter s1 to guarantee that a few ops wont die because of a massive hit use theresa to protect ops around her from consistent high dmg and you didnt find anyone using Skalter's s1 cuz its the worse skill on her kit since theres no atk buff, niche uses and well, s2 is amazing and s3 is fun to use
Hey there, If I say that I can test Skalter S1 and Theresa S3 at lvl 7, how would you do the test ? (which map ? Which operator ?). If I can help, I would be glad to do it !
Sometimes when I used Skalter, I thinking about why we not have two Skalter that can buff by skill2 and also damage by skill3 in same mission. This is a chance😂
New players build Civilight Eterna because Limited Skalter price tag 300 pulls, main reason DEV offer 2 options for limited units headhunting data contract or Lady luck.
I raised both I use Skalter for buffing a group and not needing to bring a medic I use Robo-Theresa to either smack enemies with true damage spinny gyros or keep a Surtr alive with the sheer power of HP communism.... and not needing to bring a medic.
I've already got skalter at lvl90 S2M3, but the only thing better than Skalter is 2 skalters, so I've already got CE at lvl 90 pot 5. Not sure which skill to first put to mastery though, I like afk but no one is recommending S1 so far.
Go for S3 S2 is very good but the mastery gains are not that great (60 more true dmg per hit and 80 more atk buff for allies. Same cooldown, same duration) S3 gets 60 more healing per second, ~400 more max hp for allies, 15 seconds less cooldown, same duration the 15 seconds less cooldown make S3 much better while S2 works just fine without masteries
Quick Question because I am heavily confused: Is she limited to the Event or is she a reward for Ch. 14 in general? From my understanding she is the reward for Ch. 14, which will be permanent after the event ends, correct?
Honestly i built her for two reasons. First - i litteraly had no built supporters before, Second - i really love characters with a "Motherly" vibe, not in a gooner way im litterally gay, but like, this comforting motherly vibe stuff?? like tooth fairy from reverse 1999 that sort of stuff uhuh, anyway her third skill slays i can aak buff wisadel with it!!
I don't know about what actually happens, but I can make I guess she'll be available sooner or later (or maybe right away), judging by her constellations looking lime the ones of operators you can get for free by playing saved events. Also I would like to thank you. Should I not open this video and see your comment, I'd still wait for her banner. Thanks to you, I got her on last event hour. I really need to start reading patch notes... 😅
@neriacillium hold on so I can't get Theresa even event ended? Like the event was 14 episode and I am still on 5 episode. So it will be spoil for me so that's why I didn't clear 14 episode. Can I still get her even event ended?
For me, it's simple. Gameplay-wise, unless you need a strong burst healer that can even sutain Surtr alone as long her skill is on, then you can skip this hologram waifu. As a berserker who brute force everything with pure power, I don't think I need more healers. I'm okay with my current healers (Nightingale and Shu). So I'll skip on raising her.
been looking for this video,i think it was clear that im gonna build her since i got no Skalter,but i have a question im not gonna use S2 or S3,should i master the S1 or leave it be?,it just increase like 2% for that amount of resources seems like doesn't worth the investment

1:38 The 3 horsemen of the sarkaz, Toddiffons, Mudrock and Theresa.
I personally didn't use Her S3 as much as her S1 and S2, so I leave it at lvl 7. But considering her S3M3 improve her SP cost by a lot, I might want to M3 her S3 as well. She will be my first M9
Thanks for the vid. I luckily got skalter from this banner and was wondering whom should i build. Will build my skalter first then theresa if had more mats
I've been waiting for this because I got both Theresa and Skadi Alter in this banner
This might be the best place to ask, so: Does the healing from both stack on the same targets?
I know that inspire effects cancel one another out, but does this also apply to their healing passive? For example, I know that Perfumer and Skadi's healing passive do stack, and I am pretty sure that Angelina's talent also does, but how about multiple bards? I likewise need confirmation as to wether or not different aspects of inspire skills cancel one-another out. For example, if an operator is within rage of Skadi S2 and Theresa S1, will they then get the superior healing of Theresa and the Att/def boost off of skadi, or will the last activated skill completely override all effects of the other? While I can and will test this, I can at best eyeball wether or not the healing effects stack.
If the particles no longer collide with allied operators in s2 how does the module help with s2 healing mentioned at 5:20, since you mention while both using and off skill?
She doesn't heal with her second skill that means she becomes useless waiting for the skill to charge and the module helps her overcome this weakness by increasing her talent's healing
Would only build for the E2 art
Nice home screen
I'll build Teresa ASAP (she is next in my building list order after the actual one: Ninetingale) mostly because I haven't Skalter and I need someone to heal Mudrock and dragons :)
The only thing that can stop me from building Theresa is GOD..........or the fact that I'm out of resources from building Logos and Walter
Now this is a good and unusually analytical arknights channel. Me likey
Me subbey
5:55 you forget to mention that skadi's third skill the damage stacks between her range and the seaborns range on cells where their range overlap. so she will be able to do a lot more damage to enemies in that area than just theresa with her own range. skadi actually wins that comparison imo. because she deals double true damage on overlapping tiles and the extra uptime for theresa is less than double, skadi does more total damage in the skill duration. she actually only requires one heal to not die if she isnt hit so even just a quick lancet 2 drop will fix that issue
No math, pure words. Let me tell you something. If you overlap range of skadi and seaborn you get a total of 70%atk times two, means 140% atk as true damage per second. Skadi alter has 368+50 attack once maxed, means you deal 568.5 dps over 20 seconds with 35 seconds cd. Civi deals 275% of her 369+30 attack every second over 35 seconds, means 1097.25 true damage dps over 35 seconds, means its skadi's 11704 damage when enemy can just walk out of range against Civi's 38412.5 true damage with unlimited bind. Even if Skadi is dealing damage to three units at the same time(which is oh so generous) she's not outdamaging Civi. All this while Civi continues to heal herself and provedes just 50 less attack to allies, and she doesn't require a lancet-2 just to support a single skill(because lancet has 240 s cd, you can only deploy it once, and if it dies, skadi can't use her skill. Wow.)
@@ignis5778 i went from the info he shared on screen assuming the damage potential was similar with skadi having slightly higher attack. didnt quite take into consideration the extra % of theresa's skill. you are right. the point about lancet was more that having one heal happen isnt really an issue most of the time so the downside is easily averted with stuff you tend to have on your team anyway, like a source of healing. unless its high risk CC or something like that. but yes theresa deals more damage here
@@ignis5778 i mean skadi is aoe and cv is single target
@@nuginurohman7613 I have yet to see a situation where you need aoe true damage. Closest thing to that will be new ch-14 shield guards and Manfred's slugs, but slugs only have 1k defence or so, not so much you can't kill them with physical damage, and half of the caster roster has resist shred or goos synergy with pramanix if you struggle really hard. Against shield guards from ch-14, I can only say that Theresa's single target damage will be more beneficial there: there are no stages where you are rushed down by those shield guards and can damage more then two at the same time with skalter. Another point is Theresa's second passive is full at work on these stages. I honestly think that skalter has a lot of unrealised potential due to having no situations where she is the best pick in terms of damage dealers
@@ignis5778 I'm just saying that because of the difference between AOE and ST, of course the damage will be different
Do you expect AOE to be as big as ST damage?
except it's an anomaly called wisadel
and no one uses s3 skadi for true damage anyway
Mostly use it for buffs that can be put anywhere on the map
Should you build theresa?
Me: my beloved wife YES!
> Getting skadi is chance based or as expensive as 300 Draw. not to mention it only came on certain banner. so Not all people can have her
>> Everyone can get Theresa if they play the game hard enough
Theresa win for me (had to this banner Spark for Texalt)
I'm a bit confused still on the limitation of the inspiration, like what will happen if both Skalter and CE are buffing the same unit.
One thing that skalter's S1 does that CE's S3 can't is protect squishies against burst damage.
I used it a lot in the chapter with the cannon, she can protect anyone with at least 1501HP from getting one shot by the cannon.
I consider her skill as a 50% damage reduction on anyone in range, even against TRUE damage.
It also offers good healing over time, almost the same as CE's S3.
I love her design so I will raise her someday
I've always had Skadi but I built Civilight anyways and I actually like her a lot more. Her kit is much more fun to use instead of Skadi's boring drag and drop S2. Permanent bind, true damage, an attack buff that almost matches Skadi S3, what's not to like? And CE's skill 3 is just as good, practically Nightingale S3 levels of damage mitigation. It helped me out a ton in the latest story H stages.
Theresa is stupidly cracked at IS with her S2. well that is if you get the proper buffs and the Civlight Eterna relic which boost the already good true damage by a lot. Or you can use her S3 with healing buffs; in short she is really REALLY useful at IS.
I built her very quickly! Makes it harder to build Skalter as a result because of all the mats I've used up!
I had no problems doing hidden front its the hell stages that made me slightly pissed
I have Skalter lv 90 M9 and while her skills are good, are usually have a hard time justifying bringing her over another operator. However CE skill 3 is a complete game changer for some levels, I find her to be more useful (for my personal team and use case at least). Looking forward to her module.
I got skadi alter litterally this banner, sorry CE enjoy welfare jail
i test 2 bards in a single run
edit: neither of them received Inspiration to each other
meaning bards are unaffected by any insipration type buffs whether the source is from their own or from other operators
If you already have Skalter with skill mastery and you feel resources are limited, there's really no need to build CE.
However, if you're a new player who has never had Skalter or particularly likes CE, it's worth doing it.
For those who unexpectedly pulled Skalter and are unsure whether to invest in Skalter or CE, from the personal experience of a player with Skalter at M9 and CE at M6 (mastery 3 on skills 2-3), I think it's enough to only level Skalter's skill 2 to M3. But if you prefer CE, that's fine too. In the long run, there will be plenty of other units that can fulfill the roles of these two.
Already have at M9 my guy she is My most anticipated operator even above walter
You couldn't find a support Skalter with S1M3? Mine is M9.
Of course, my Theresa will be M9 too. But for now I'll prefarm Narantuya first.
do you have skadi?
no?
then build antenna
simple
15%?
That's make total of 65% damage reduction on ISO 3 & 4 with one specific item.
That's mean you take 35% damage instead of 50%.
Basically 15% but with item effect felt double
The video makes it seems like Skalter is only good on convenience in passing, but trust me, that convenience is HUGE QoL. CE's peak healing and peak ATK buff are both higher than Skadi's S2, but you really feel that DEF buff and 100% uptime on anni-like maps. And if you don't need the uptime, her S3 is better than CE. Skadi is curved in all the right places.
And yes her S3 is lower true damage, but have you considered that this is GLOBAL range? And true AoE on top of that. If you ever wish you had pulled Texalter or RYato, then just have your Gravel hold an elite and pull up with her Seaborn. Plus, you'd be surprised how many key targets often sit around on the map with huge "deal with me or suffer" sign on their back. If you don't have Skadi, NTR, or Surtr to drop and assassinate them, you can drop Melantha and the Seaborn and start pulsing true damage while buffing Melantha. CE would need to drop herself next to those key threats, which is not ideal because key threats usually hang far away from the main choke/defensible point, where you'd want to put the main bulk of your squad.
I'm going to build her, I don't have Skadi Support yet
She may not be Theresa but this will do besides her design looks neat and it would be cool to have an ex 'Sarkaz King' in your team
I built Theresa even though I have Skalter because WIFE and useful buffs. There are plenty of events where passive low healing and buffs are useful, it's part of why Perfumer is such a great operator despite her star rating. You can also tell she was designed for this chapter and Babel, since there are plenty of enemies with absurd defensive stats but low HP (true damage wrecks them). Ling, Mudrock and Penance are some of the top tier operators who get so much better from Skalter/Theresa, since they cover their main weakness while making them stronger. Mudrock must also become absurdly tanky with Theresa on the field, since she alreaady has an anti-sarkaz trait and a damage reduction module.
If you don't have skalter, Build her.
if you have skalter, Build her for more POWAH!
I mean i have maxed Skalter, now have maxed Eterna XD and only now learning how to properly use them XD
It's not a question of meta, it's a question of possession of heart and empathy. After Babel and chapter 14 you're obligated to raise Her Highness. If not, you're a callous monster.
I already have her E2Lvl90 M9 and appointed as an assistant. Absolutely no regrets for my lovely Queen.
Uncontested best character in the game.
Skalter first skill is incredibly strong but it's the same deal as theresa s1 and s3, it does NOTHING but make you survive easier and that's vastly less applicable than permanent stat buffs.
I m9ed my skalter and honestly, her s1 compared to theresa's s3 is kinda weird; skalter's s1 does the same thing but it doesnt need more units to take the hit since 50% of the dmg taken goes to skalter who also buffs 170% of her max hp and has better healing to make up for the bigger hp which means, you dont exactly want to put her near a lot of units taking dmg since it all goes to her, you want to protect some ops from a massive hit coming at you. She also has the summon that can make her protect ops far away from global atks but its more useful on other skills.
meanwhile theresa wants the most ops near her so she can do stuff like healing surtr almost forever using shared hp.
tldr would be:
use skalter s1 to guarantee that a few ops wont die because of a massive hit
use theresa to protect ops around her from consistent high dmg
and you didnt find anyone using Skalter's s1 cuz its the worse skill on her kit since theres no atk buff, niche uses and well, s2 is amazing and s3 is fun to use
Eh, I don’t have skalter. So if you’re telling me Theresa is better in some degree, I don’t see why I shouldn’t
Or go 5-head: run both. Skalter S2 for survivabiity/damage and Theresa S1/S3 for Survivability.
Me after watching this:
How about ... i use ... both?
Hey there,
If I say that I can test Skalter S1 and Theresa S3 at lvl 7, how would you do the test ? (which map ? Which operator ?). If I can help, I would be glad to do it !
Sometimes when I used Skalter, I thinking about why we not have two Skalter that can buff by skill2 and also damage by skill3 in same mission. This is a chance😂
two bards on the field call that the tavern
Neat another way to keep surtr alive
Too late I already built her :3
I will but after mod3 wisdel and logos maybe SA and mudrock too and build Qiubai and with my current lmd is nearly 0
haven't watched the full vid yet but does THRS and Skadi's trait work on each other?
If you're asking if they can heal each other then yes, they can.
Can I still get her even after the event? I'm a new player and I want her
Yes you can she is tied to chapter 14 which is permanent
New players build Civilight Eterna because Limited Skalter price tag 300 pulls, main reason DEV offer 2 options for limited units headhunting data contract or Lady luck.
I raised both
I use Skalter for buffing a group and not needing to bring a medic
I use Robo-Theresa to either smack enemies with true damage spinny gyros or keep a Surtr alive with the sheer power of HP communism.... and not needing to bring a medic.
Yes, she's OUR wife
After I got logos and wisadel. I dont have any resources left to build even 3star
But I will just for fun and got some spare resources
I've already got skalter at lvl90 S2M3, but the only thing better than Skalter is 2 skalters, so I've already got CE at lvl 90 pot 5. Not sure which skill to first put to mastery though, I like afk but no one is recommending S1 so far.
so... which skill should i mastery?
S2 for true damage and attack buff, S3 for burst healing, depending on your needs
Go for S3
S2 is very good but the mastery gains are not that great (60 more true dmg per hit and 80 more atk buff for allies. Same cooldown, same duration)
S3 gets 60 more healing per second, ~400 more max hp for allies, 15 seconds less cooldown, same duration
the 15 seconds less cooldown make S3 much better while S2 works just fine without masteries
Already built her m6 no matter would i use her or not
I have both at full pot, so i kinda fine for now.
I'll build her when i have the resources cuz walter and logos took it all 😅
Quick Question because I am heavily confused:
Is she limited to the Event or is she a reward for Ch. 14 in general?
From my understanding she is the reward for Ch. 14, which will be permanent after the event ends, correct?
If i... deploy skadi alter and theresa together?
Skadi in her 3 skill and theresa in her 1 skill?
Yes u should build her to pay for your sins
Honestly i built her for two reasons. First - i litteraly had no built supporters before, Second - i really love characters with a "Motherly" vibe, not in a gooner way im litterally gay, but like, this comforting motherly vibe stuff?? like tooth fairy from reverse 1999 that sort of stuff uhuh, anyway her third skill slays i can aak buff wisadel with it!!
I had a crush on a girl named Theresa, so it goes without saying.
can theresa be buffed by skalter's /skalter's summons inpiration or vice versa?
Nope
It literally says in the Bard traits that they are not affected by Inspiration. No matter if it's theirs or someone else's.
If you chose the s2 by simply putting her besides other operator get the attk buff???
hello bro i didn't finish chapter 14 during the event. can i still get her even event ended?
I don't know about what actually happens, but I can make I guess she'll be available sooner or later (or maybe right away), judging by her constellations looking lime the ones of operators you can get for free by playing saved events.
Also I would like to thank you. Should I not open this video and see your comment, I'd still wait for her banner. Thanks to you, I got her on last event hour. I really need to start reading patch notes... 😅
@neriacillium hold on so I can't get Theresa even event ended? Like the event was 14 episode and I am still on 5 episode. So it will be spoil for me so that's why I didn't clear 14 episode. Can I still get her even event ended?
@@Jumman23456 yes, you may still get her, once you complete ch 14. It's just you can't go there right away now.
@@neriacillium why can't now?
@@Jumman23456 because now ch 14 is locked until you clear ch 13
For me, it's simple. Gameplay-wise, unless you need a strong burst healer that can even sutain Surtr alone as long her skill is on, then you can skip this hologram waifu. As a berserker who brute force everything with pure power, I don't think I need more healers. I'm okay with my current healers (Nightingale and Shu). So I'll skip on raising her.
We get Civilight Eterna for completing chapter 14 but is that just during the event or is that permanent?
@@DrippedOutPigeon permanent
BOTH .. both is good
"Boo! Did I scare you?"
Of course you should build her. After reading the chapter, how is that even a question?
You even get her elite uncap mats in the hidden Front mini-game mode
Wait, you aren't Frostbyte!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Too late, i already maxed everything
Too late, mine is already E2 69 M9.
been looking for this video,i think it was clear that im gonna build her since i got no Skalter,but i have a question im not gonna use S2 or S3,should i master the S1 or leave it be?,it just increase like 2% for that amount of resources seems like doesn't worth the investment
Her S1 isn't worth the mastery
