Ceres

New

Ceres

Moon striker · PvE S · PvP SS

Ceres is a Moon Striker ranked S in PvE and SS in PvP for the July 2026 update. Her kit revolves around Chill stacks from Order by Force and Crescent Moon, then converts that pressure through 7th Form: Earthshaker—an AoE that strips a buff, applies Freeze and Isolation, and locks enemies down. 21st Form: Blade Gale finishes with Western Winds, Stun, and Action Gauge cuts scaled off Chill. She thrives as a control-heavy Moon carry in Cosmo Gate and arena, especially when Freeze chains let your team cycle first.

Asherah

Moon striker · PvE A · PvP C

Asherah is a Moon Striker ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. She is a free distribution AoE dealer whose Veil Cleave and Dawn of Night both hit every enemy, making her a solid filler when your roster lacks wide damage. Stranis Style Slash builds Chill while Veil Cleave grants SPD Up and Dawn of Night adds CRIT Rate Up for follow-up turns. Use her in multi-target PvE stages and early clears; she falls behind dedicated Moon carries like Bunnygirl Claire or Ceres once those options are available.

Bunnygirl Scarlet

Sun ranger · PvE A · PvP A

Bunnygirl Scarlet is a Sun Ranger ranked A in both PvE and PvP. She plays as a lottery-style AoE dealer: I'll Cut You Up! stacks Ignition, Let's Heat Things Up! gains ATK Up and bonus damage into Burned targets, and Think You Can Withstand This?! applies multi-hit Burn while fishing for ultimate cooldown reduction or reset. Special skills also grant extra turns, which helps shave enemy toughness bars. She shines in burn-heavy Sun teams and content where RNG cooldown resets can snowball a fast clear.

Epindel

Moon assassin · PvE A · PvP C

Epindel is a Moon Assassin ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. She is a single-target dealer who stacks Chill from Moon-ally critical hits via Noble Bearing, then spends Relentless Effort for Immunity plus extra Chill before Hawk of Orlan pushes SPD Up burst. Orlan Style Swordsmanship keeps Chill rolling between big swings. Indirectly boosted by Kira Arcana, she remains a workable Moon assassin when you need special-attack immunity windows, though higher-tier Moon options outclass her for endgame PvP.

Epindel Blessing in Bloom

Sun assassin · PvE SS · PvP SS

Epindel Blessing in Bloom is a Sun Assassin ranked SS in both PvE and PvP. This bridal variant stacks Ignition through Purewhite Resolve whenever allies crit, then uses Bouquet Toss to cut Action Gauge by 20%, shred barriers for bonus damage, and set up Bride's Entrance for another barrier-targeted gauge drop plus SPD Up. Falconet Strike keeps Ignition flowing between burst turns. She is a top-tier Action Gauge controller for Sun comps that punish barrier tanks in Cosmo Gate and RTA.

Frey

Star supporter · PvE A · PvP C

Frey is a Star Supporter ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. Her gambling kit converts max Chill into High Roller stacks through Cash In, while All In spreads CRIT Rate Up to the whole team and Bullseye hits all enemies with ATK Up setup. Bet Refusal builds Chill and can pivot into Forced Negotiation under Nova Burst. Patch improvements also let basic Nova Burst play generate shields, so she doubles as a light sustain buffer for Star-attribute clears when you need crit amp more than pure healing.

Harley

Sun defender · PvE A · PvP B

Harley is a Sun Defender ranked A in PvE and B in PvP. She is a damage-oriented tank who buffs allies rather than purely soaking hits: Chicken Race! grants party DEF Up and conditional SPD Up, while You Wanna Go? gives Harley SPD Up and feeds Ignition to your strongest Sun ally. Let's Go, Dave! stacks Ignition for her own damage. She is often more stable in the back row than the front, functioning as a hybrid buffer-tank for mid-tier Sun teams before you pull Hilde or Emilly.

Lily

Moon caster · PvE A · PvP B

Lily is a Moon Caster ranked A in PvE and B in PvP. Her Mr. Rabbit kit combines barrier support with AoE pressure: Lily's Precious Moment shields allies and sets Mr. Rabbit's Detective Consulting, then Mr. Rabbit's Instant Verdict hits all enemies with ATK Down and bonus damage while that buff is up. Strike Amidst the Chaos stacks Chill between cycles. She is a frequent pick for Cosmo Gate Immortal King Moguls thanks to the shield utility, giving Moon teams both bulk and offensive soft control.

Omega

Star caster · PvE A · PvP C

Omega is a Star Caster ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. Her Auto-Hunt System needs a warm-up: Leap stacks from Star allies convert into Power-Up Star, which then transforms Mega Punch! and The Biggest and Coolest One! into stronger follow-ups. Pew Pew! keeps Leap flowing while the ultimate adds ATK Up. Bring at least one non-Star ally so her passive can charge consistently. She rewards longer fights and Leap synergy but starts weaker than ready-to-burst Star dealers like Lyn or Tanya.

Serpang

Sun supporter · PvE A · PvP C

Serpang is a Sun Supporter ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. Paired with Toto, she heals the lowest-HP ally and applies ATK Down on I Trust You!, then Let's Show Them, Toto! restores the party and grants Skill DMG Nullification to protect key carries. I Choose You! stacks Ignition for light offense. Patch notes also improved Nova Burst basic-skill healing. Use her when you need damage immunity windows and ATK Down soft control on a budget Sun support slot.

Smile

Star ranger · PvE A · PvP C

Smile is a Star Ranger ranked A in PvE and C in PvP. Her kit is built around DEF Down setup: All Units, Open Fire! applies reliable DEF Down for the team's damage window, while Cat Tapdance can trigger after basics once enemies drop below 50% HP and sprinkle Burn. Firing Coordinates Confirmed stacks Leap but has a low coefficient, so she feels weak until the trigger and ultimate come online. Best as a Star DEF Down enabler rather than a primary carry.

Annah

Sun defender · PvE B · PvP C

Annah is a Sun SR Defender ranked B in PvE and C in PvP. She fills the budget frontliner role for early Story and resource stages before you unlock stronger SSR tanks like Harley, Hilde, or Emilly. Expect straightforward Sun-attribute tanking with limited late-game scaling. Keep her for account progression and Sun elemental coverage, then bench her once your defender roster deepens.

Carmen

Moon defender · PvE B · PvP S

Carmen is a Moon Defender ranked B in PvE and S in PvP. Knights Standard Swordsmanship and her Max-HP-scaling kit make her a classic taunt tank: Shock Therapy applies Taunt with Rule of Monastir, and Monastir Mobile Bulwark spreads DEF Up while taunting again. She improved in recent patches but still trails Emilly for overall value; without a Carmen-exclusive Arcana she sits closer to mid-tier PvE. In PvP her S-tier taunt package remains relevant for forcing attacks.

Carmen Eternal Promise

Moon defender · PvE T0 · PvP S

Carmen Eternal Promise is a Moon Defender ranked T0 in PvE and S in PvP. Oath assigns Oath of Devotion to your highest-ATK ally so Carmen absorbs 40% of their damage, while Guardian Knight heals and Barriers that ally when they are hit. Wedding March cleanses the team, restores HP, and fuels Chill stacks for her Max-HP kit. She is the premier Moon damage-share tank for Cosmo Gate and high-end PvE, pairing especially well with fragile Moon carries.

Carnelia

Chaos caster · PvE S · PvP SS

Carnelia is a Chaos Caster ranked S in PvE and SS in PvP. Spoke and Umbral Echo power her crow magic as she stacks Agitation for ATK gains. Guiding Twilight applies Buff Block, cuts Action Gauge by 25%, and refreshes Umbral Echo, while Dissonance Break AoEs the field and advances her own gauge. Gesture of Dawn keeps Agitation rolling between big turns. She is a premier PvP Chaos caster who denies enemy buffs and pressures Action Gauge in RTA and defense comps.

Marcille

Star caster · PvE B · PvP C

Marcille is a Star SR Caster ranked B in PvE and C in PvP. Nut Twist stacks Ignition, Nail Drive applies Burn with SPD Up on crit, and Screw Breaker adds ATK Up plus Recovery Down. She is a practical SR damage option for Star-attribute content and early Polaris teams when you lack SSR casters like Dana or Omega. Expect solid single-target burn pressure without the investment cost of premium Star dealers.

Trish

Star assassin · PvE B · PvP C

Trish is a Star Assassin ranked B in PvE and C in PvP. Phantom Step stacks Leap, Accelerated Assault grants CRIT Rate Up, and Continuous Cuts adds ATK Up with a full cooldown reset on kill—her signature execute loop. Indirectly buffed by Kira Arcana, she rewards cleanup kills and fast target swaps. Use her as a budget Star assassin for farming and mid content; top-tier Star carries still outpace her for boss DPS.

Yoo Mina

Star ranger · PvE S · PvP C

Yoo Mina is a Star Ranger ranked S in PvE and C in PvP. Experienced Rookie stacks ATK after attacks and refunds Action Gauge on crits, while Pulse Impact and Wolvesbane apply Bleed that bypasses barriers—strong into shielded bosses. Pulse Revolver builds Leap between burst turns. She fits flexible PvE builds and can lean into Harmony-leaning compositions when Bleed uptime matters more than pure Star burst. Less dominant in current PvP but excellent for PvE bossing.

Lyn

Star striker · PvE S · PvP S

Lyn is a Star Striker ranked S in both PvE and PvP. She is widely regarded as the strongest Star-element damage dealer, excelling in Cosmo Gate, boss fights, and any content that rewards raw single-target output. Prioritize her when building Star-attribute teams or when you need a reliable high-ceiling carry that performs in both PvE and arena. Pair her with Star supports and Leap enablers to maximize her damage windows throughout longer encounters.

Roberta

Star striker · PvE S · PvP C

Roberta is a Star Striker ranked S in PvE and C in PvP. Veteran's Instinct gives a massive 50% CRIT Rate on attack with HP-conditional damage bonuses, while Commence Operation stacks Leap for Star synergy. Fast Track counters AoE hits by cleansing a debuff and pushing Action Gauge, and On-Site Emergency Judgment adds ATK Up plus more gauge. She is a strong single-target Star carry for PvE who punishes wide enemy skills—ideal for Cosmo Gate patterns that spam AoE.

Charlotte

Sun striker · PvE S · PvP S

Charlotte is a Sun Striker ranked S in both PvE and PvP. Honest Thrust stacks Ignition, Vow of Victory buffs an ally with CRIT Rate Up and conditional ATK Up while granting Charlotte an extra turn, and Unyielding Strike applies ATK Down plus Action Gauge gain. She functions as a single-target dealer who also stabilizes the party through offensive buffs and ATK Down. A staple Sun hypercarry enabler for Cosmo Gate and balanced PvP lineups.

Dana

Star caster · PvE S · PvP C

Dana is a Star Caster ranked S in PvE and C in PvP. Leaf Barrage stacks Leap, Rapid Bloom grants ATK Up to Dana and your highest-ATK ally, and Power of Nature delivers AoE damage with SPD Down.

Use her when you need both personal damage and an ATK amp for your main Star carry.

Elisa

Chaos supporter · PvE S · PvP SS

Elisa is a Chaos Supporter ranked S in PvE and SS in PvP. A Futile Attempt to Help heals and applies Holy Blessing while stacking Agitation, and Let Us Pray Together can revive a fallen ally at 50% HP with a huge Action Gauge push—or further heal and bless if nobody is down. Please Go Back keeps Agitation flowing. Patch updates strengthened her damage-reduction buffs, locking her in as a top Chaos revive support for RTA and high-pressure PvE.

Haydee

Star defender · PvE SS · PvP S

Haydee is a Star Defender ranked SS in PvE and S in PvP. Spiked Armor grants Barrier and DEF Up, converting max Leap into an extra turn, while Thorned Grave applies Guard so she can take hits for allies and inflicts ACC Down to blunt enemy accuracy. Steel Hail stacks Leap between defensive cycles. The ACC Down and Guard package make her more valuable than a pure HP sponge—especially in PvP where missing attacks decide games.

Kyra

Sun assassin · PvE S · PvP S

Kyra is a Sun Assassin ranked S in both PvE and PvP. Distorted Attention grants Stealth and ATK Down, Price of Silence adds ATK Up and Action Gauge cuts while stealthed, and Unusual Greeting stacks Ignition between bursts.

She is a premier Cosmo Gate main dealer and benefits indirectly from Kira Arcana, making her a priority Sun assassin for both PvE farming and competitive play.

Lugh

Moon ranger · PvE S · PvP B

Lugh is a Moon Ranger ranked S in PvE and B in PvP. Subdual Charm and Winterborne Quartet apply Freeze while stacking Chill and SPD Up, then Heaven Forbids Evil, Justice Strikes lands DEF Down and delays the enemy ultimate by one turn. Way of the Exorcist can proc extra Freeze after basics. She is a Freeze-centric Moon ranger who enables DEF Down damage windows—excellent for PvE bosses, slightly less dominant in current PvP.

Luna

Order caster · PvE S · PvP S

Luna is an Order Caster ranked S in both PvE and PvP. Defensive Mana Shot, Hecate's Ember, and The World I See all deal area damage, with Insight stacking, CRIT Rate Up, and Bind on ultimate. She dominates multi-enemy stages and wave content but underperforms against single bosses where her AoE coefficients waste damage. Draft her for Order-attribute clears and PvP boards that present multiple targets.

Lydia

Chaos ranger · PvE S · PvP C

Lydia is a Chaos Ranger ranked S in PvE and C in PvP. Touch of the Void stacks Agitation and can apply Unknown Hex, Invitation Beyond the Stars spreads Hex to all enemies, and Void Within the Tome adds SPD Down with Action Gauge gains when conditions are met.

Petra

Sun ranger · PvE S · PvP C

Improvised Blueprints and Breaking Ground stack Ignition with SPD Up, while Construction Negotiations applies DEF Down and scales damage with Ignition stacks.

Use her as a Sun DEF Down dealer when toughness bars and Ignition synergy matter more than PvP pacing.

Fleeting Dream stacks Insight, Starlit Butterflies buffs an ally with ATK Up and Action Gauge then grants Seira an extra turn, and Invitation to the Phantasm applies SPD Down with Light of the Phantasm.

Boom-Boom Tool stacks Leap, Buzz-Buzz Chainsaw grants all allies CRIT Rate Up and pushes her Action Gauge, and Bang-Bang Bunker adds ATK Up with bonus Toughness damage under Demolition Mode.

Belle Lame deals Max-HP damage while stacking Insight, Bal Doré heals the party and grants Starlight Wish, and Lumière Sonnet cleanses two debuffs, heals again, and advances allies' Action Gauge.
