While her gameplay animations look great, I actually have concerns regarding her kit. It’s not about multipliers, I focus on more about inconsistencies and redundant parts.

I am sure some of you understandably are not into the gameplay mechanics so I’ll not elaborate on this a lot.

First of all, you must have seen her hack interface after using the liberation. One of them (spoofing program cyberpsychosis) allows you to control all common enemies on the field. It seems as an interesting effect but will this directly give points in WhiWa? Outside of this endgame, there is no use for this effect (not in ToA, matrix, hologram…). Whether you have her S2 (RAM is now 32 and you can use every spoofing programs), this won’t matter much as you won’t be able to utilise that spoofing program.

What they should have done is adding another effect to it:

-… If no enemy is converted, deal Spectro dmg to all enemies considered as Tune Hack dmg.

There is also the fact that some of these spoofing programs are underwhelming. Reduction of an enemy’s attack by 5% is not something effective at all. The numbers are too low to the point that all of this seems as an accessory with no substantial gameplay value.

The other one may not be considered as an inconsistency but you can’t help to think a character should be able to make use of her outro’s basic attack amp buff. This is clearly for Rebecca if you want her to play her as a maindps instead but honestly, her sig weapon is not designed for a maindps so I am not sure if it would be ideal to play Rebecca as maindps. I just hope they’ll eventually release another healer with ba attack as main dmg type who can be considered as a general purpose support very similar to Mornye. I can assume that such character won’t be based on tune hack mechanic considering the archetype is specific for collab characters. Well, as long as the healer deals basic attack dmg, it is fine really.

Compared to Aemeath, she actually does not have much self tune dmg which makes you wonder if tune boost is really important in her kit.

Please don’t think I am doomposting or anything. I just hope some of these will be addressed in the next beta versions but I’ve seen Kuro making odd choices before such as Qiuyuan’s S3+ has no relevance in his subdps form at all, despite having heavy attack amp outro all of other buffs Iuno have are not applicable to nearly all heavy attack dps units and changing Denia’s kit for the tune buffs to be unlocked only if you have Mornye on the team for Luuk, which Lynae did not have a restriction like that.

Honestly, I have Aemeath and Luuk, and both need Mornye. On top of that, I’ve been also using Mornye with my Brant team (at high investment). I am just begging for them to release at least one healer support for tune mechanic. It’s getting out of control when we already have 3 to 4 teams each for tune and negative status but only one healer (Mornye and Chisa) for each of these mechanics.

You see Qiuyuan’s higher sequence nodes (S3+) is not meant for his subdps form so those who have been playing him with Galbrena, Phrolova or Sigrika will have an alternative, allowing Qiuyuan (at S3+) to be played as a maindps in endgame modes.

Considering Kuro now releasing subdps units with 2 modes and less restrictions, I am sure we’ll get a unit who can buff heavy attack dmg. He can’t technically use all of Iuno and Ciaccona’s buffs so it would be best if he get a dedicated subdps unit (tho, such unit won’t be released with Qiuyuan in mind). I have to add that all liberation dps can use every buff Lynae gives and the same applies to Denia’s tune strain mode which future tune strain characters will be able to utilise all of her buffs too. It’s a matter of time really.

For those who is being kinda forced to play Qiuyuan with his subdps role in endgame modes, you can now free him out from that role.

Edit: I realised I wrote here instead of hear lol :-)

With the recent info regarding her teambuilding being uncertain, I keep wondering what Kuro is planning for her.

Her being a second tune strain or negative status healer support similar to Mornye and Chisa, it wouldn’t be bad at all. The only thing is that her turn would be shorter if this happens.

Or maybe she’ll be a maindps who can finally take the tune strain dps spot for Lynae’s strain mode.

It would make sense if she turns out to be a second echo skill support unit after Qiuyuan being the only one carrying 3 echo skill dps units.

I’ve seen those who wish for her being dedicated support of Jinshi. I’d be very surprised if this happens.

I personally would like Lucilla to be very similar to Iuno who is basically jack of trades with less restriction than she has. It’d be great she can heal, support certain units and have the potential to be a potent hybrid dps.

I just hope we’ll have our answer soon enough. Her gameplay vfx should be creative, that’s what I am sure of, considering she can physically replicate memories.
