Centi — Stats, Skills, Best Teams

Q: Should you pull?

CONSIDER. A team-wide shield is a big plus for a Defender, but the effect is fairly thin without investing in Skill 1; worth pulling if you lack a wide-support Defender, can wait if Poli/Anis already covers you.

Q: Skill Investment Priority

1/1/1 (playable) → 4/4/4 → 4/4/10 (final). Max Skill 2 first since it's the main shield source; raise Skill 1 next to cut its cooldown; the burst is only supplementary, so leave it last.

Review & Analysis

Centi is an Iron Defender manufactured by Missilis, ranked B, a cornerstone of mono-Iron teams. Skill 2 creates a shield for the whole team based on her max HP, serving as her main defensive tool, and can be triggered more often thanks to Skill 1 reducing Skill 2's cooldown on a Full Charge hit. Her Burst, Start Construction, targets the 5 lowest-HP enemies, dealing damage while lowering their DEF — helping mop up remaining small enemies and letting the whole squad finish fights faster.

Skill Investment Priority

Prioritize Skill 2 (team-wide shield, her main defensive tool) → Skill 1 (reduces Skill 2's cooldown, more frequent shields) → Burst (damage + DEF reduction on 5 low-HP targets).

1/1/1 (playable) → 4/4/4 → 4/4/10 (final). Max Skill 2 first since it's the main shield source; raise Skill 1 next to cut its cooldown; the burst is only supplementary, so leave it last.

Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

Skill 2 shields the ENTIRE team, not just herself — extremely efficient team support for a Defender.
Her burst targets the 5 lowest-HP enemies, great for wiping out squishy adds/supports before they cause trouble.
High base HP/DEF (HP 711171 · DEF 4900), a proper sturdy Defender profile.

Weaknesses

Skill 2's shield is only 6.38% Max HP for 5 seconds, fairly thin unless Skill 1 helps speed up its cooldown.
RL normal attack deals only 61.3% ATK with a 1-second charge, contributing almost nothing to main damage.
Base ATK is only 17059, low, so Centi shouldn't be expected as a damage source.
