General PvE Damage Costume Recommendations
This list is intended for general PvE. This will give you a good foundation for completing story and character packs, Fiend Hunter, Tower of Desire, and Tower of Salvation. These costumes will also be good for Guild Raids, but they might not be the best choice for any given fight. Supports are always more valuable than damage costumes, so invest there first.
Portrait | Costume | Comments |
---|---|---|
Sacred Justia | ||
![]() |
Reclaimed Destiny | Does more damage the more enemies she hits and her range is exceptional. At +4, it can be used every turn. The only content she's bad at is when there's very few enemies to hit, such as Last Night or the rare single boss fights. |
Eclipse | ||
![]() |
Beach Vacation | Highest damage 3x3 without a conditional, but has the longest cooldown in the game at 11 turns. So if you didn't win on turn 1, you'll need the other costumes to fill in that gap. |
![]() |
Nightmare Bunny | This limited costume is her second strongest costume. It generates SP on top of dealing respectable damage for the cost. If you missed out, skip using Eclipse for extended fights like Fiend Hunter. |
![]() |
Dimension Witch | Low SP for a magic costume, but the X tile pattern makes it difficult to use. |
![]() |
Dream Bride | Winning costume for the 1.5 Anniversary popularity poll. High SP cost for the amount of damage she does. Lackluster, even for a free costume. |
Blade | ||
![]() |
Young Lady | A multi-hit attack that's got more range than is typical for physical costumes and adds a vulnerability debuff to the main tile (improved version of Your Very Own Cat Eris). |
![]() |
Apostle | A short range, high damage ability that also counter attacks the entire enemy field. However, she has the lowest HP of any 5* character, making the counter risky to take advantage of outside of FH/GR. |
Loen | ||
![]() |
Last Hope | An exceptional 3x3 with a low cooldown and no conditional. |
![]() |
Celebrity Bunny | This is a stronger version of Sacred Justia's Reclaimed Destiny but with a long cooldown. Unlike Eclipse, Loen isn't useless in extended fights without it. |
![]() |
Track and Field Team | Underwhelming damage for the range and SP cost, but the self-buff makes it envaluable for FH/GR. |
Liatris | ||
![]() |
Maid Name R | Her strongest costume, but needs a DoT to maximize her damage. If you want to trigger the conditional on turn 1, you'll need to pair her with someone like Vanguard Gray. |
![]() |
Rodev's Star | A multi-hit attack that applies a potent DoT that can stack with each application. |
![]() |
Neon Stalker | Her least useful costume for general content due to the range, but it has a potent DoT that can stack with each application. You'll only use this during FH when the other abilities are on cooldown. |
Venaka | ||
![]() |
Wind Dancer | Moderate damage 3x3 that also increases the amount of wind damage the enemy takes. Unlike most 3x3s, the main target is in the front row instead of the middle. |
![]() |
DJ | Hits like a truck and decreases the enemy's magic resist, making her exceptional for PvP as well as good for general content, and not just when she has elemental advantage. |
Roxy | A collaboration character that can't be obtained anymore. | |
![]() |
Respected Master | The only thing that makes her remarkable is her element: there isn't another wide AoE in water. She has amazing range and main target damage. Her other costume is primarily for PvP. |
Honorable Mentions
When you don't need to clear the entire enemy field, these are some of the more useful characters.
Portrait | Costume | Comments |
---|---|---|
Morpeah | A flexible summoner | |
![]() |
Beach Vacation | The best utility costume that isn't a support. Summons 2 minions that can attack or push independantly from Morpeah. She's a critfishing nightmare and a dud in Last Night, but the MVP of Tower of Salvation. |
![]() |
Daydream Bunny | Winning costume for the 1st Anniversary popularity poll. Summons a single pet that deals less damage but has a larger range compared to Beach Vacation. The SP cost is also lower, but it can't be used every turn or used premptively. |
![]() |
Apostle | Applies a vulnerability to damage from summons as well as concentrated fire to the main target, making it easier to manage them. |
Levia | More than just a debuffer | |
![]() |
Track and Field Captain | Levia's primary purpose is to apply vulnerability with this costume. |
![]() |
Overheat | Does amazing damage on the following turn when T&F's debuff would be expiring anyway. |
![]() |
Night of Jealousy | Deals exceptional damage vs the main target, making it a solid follow-up attack and excellent in Last Night. |
Nebris | Highest damage character in the game | |
![]() |
New Hire | Has the highest damage ceiling in the game because it increases with each buff she has, and her other two costumes provide up to two buffs each (4 buffs total). Her range limits her for general content, but she's exceptional in Fiend Hunter and Last Night |
![]() |
Labyrinth Gatekeeper | Has the least useful range of the 3 costumes, but good damage and one of the strongest self-buffs in the game. Augmentation potency increases at +4. |
![]() |
Laid-back Lifeguard | Weaker of the two buffing costumes in terms of buffs, but has a more useful range if you unlock the range increase potential. Needs at least +3 for the buff duration increase. |
Luvencia | Strong damage dealer that can also act as a chainer. | |
![]() |
Wild Dog | Damage varies based on how many chains are being generated, but her range limits her for general content. |
![]() |
Deal Snatcher | Deals more damage the fewer enemies she hits, with double damage on the main target, making it good for follow-up attacks and Last Night. |
Dalvi | ||
![]() |
Summer Vacation | Winning costume for the 0.5 Anniversary popularity poll. Has the longest duration DoT in the game for a range this big. Best of the free costumes. |
![]() |
Bright Moon | Has a unique mechanic that allows her 2 additional free casts with no cooldown. At +5, she also gets an energy shield, which occasionally comes in handy in FH. |
