Mourning Butterfly - Hel

Overview:

S-Rank Water element Hel is a main DPS with very strong damage. She also has a support playstyle that is quite strong as well. However, her skills feel very slow, with extremely long wind-up and recovery animations that cannot be interrupted.

She can basically be seen as a “powered-up” version of Zhiming.

Sigil Recommendations:

Before a new, suitable Divine Grace sigil set is released, it is recommended to use:

• Slots 1, 3, 5: [Ferryman of the Dead].

• Slots 2, 4, 6: [Ruler of the Heavens].

• Omega Sigils:

  • Replace 2, 5 with: [Undercurrent of the Depths].

Sigil Enchants:

Prioritize [Fierce Assault], [Berserk], and [Enraged]. Secondarily, get [Tactics Enhance]. Only if you have extra slots, consider getting [Water Blessing] and [Big Hitter].

If your teammates are Skuld and S-Rank Heimdall with high-tier exclusive Functors, you can use fewer [Berserk] enchants. With both Functors maxed, only 4 [Berserk] are needed.

Aether Code Recommendations:

Use the Blue line for DPS. But honestly, the Yellow line’s damage is not low either. The Blue line is only slightly stronger than the Yellow line.

For a support or sub-DPS build, the Yellow line is recommended to provide a large amount of buffs to the team.

Warp Recommendations:

• Support:

  • Slots 1 & 2: [Power UP: Ranged] and [The Executioner].

  • Slots 3 & 4: [EM Flux] + [Telepathize Forcefield I].

  • Slots 5 & 6: prioritize [Evolution Particle III]. If you have low investment or no exclusive Functor for Hel, you can bring one [Telekinesis Vector III]. Normally, just bring [Armor Breaker]. You can also bring [Kinetic Mod] or [Current Decay] depending on the situation.

Signature Functor (Elf - Mist):

It is highly recommended to pull for her exclusive Functor; otherwise, her gameplay will feel very clunky. However, the gains from upgrading the Functor (transcending) are not particularly high.

DPS Rotation:

• With exclusive Functor + triple Yggdrasil team: Hold Skill 1 + Skill 2 + Skill 3 -> Skill 1 -> Skill 2 -> Hold Movement + Dodge (repeat until the resource bar is empty) -> Skill 3 (to finish).

Stat Boost Priority:

• Skill 3 > Skill 2 / Skill 1 > Ultimate. Normal Attack can be skipped.

Team Recommendations:

• For a DPS build, she is recommended to be paired with her Ultimate Skillchain partner, S-Rank Heimdall.

  • The third member is optimally Skuld or another universal support (except Lingguang).

• For a sub-DPS playstyle, she can be used in an Ultimate Skillchain with S-Rank Heimdall and paired with any Water DPS. However, since other Water DPS are not from the Yggdrasil gen-zone, Hel’s startup will be slower at the beginning of the fight, making her impact in short battles relatively average.
