CONSIDER IT — Lucilla is an extremely durable Defender thanks to Taunt plus damage reduction, very useful for hard Raid/Interception content; if you already have another taunt Defender (like Noise, Jackal) covering that role, no rush — best prioritized by newer players lacking a Water shield.

Skill Investment Priority
Skill investment roadmap (Skill 1/Skill 2/Burst): 4/4/4 (functional) → 7/4/7 → 10/7/10 (endgame). Why: Skill 2 (Taunt + damage reduction) is the life-and-death value for a Defender so it's top priority alongside Burst (wide-area ATK-down + DEF buff); Skill 1 only debuffs one target so it can wait.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
- Skill 2 auto-Taunts all enemies continuously for 15 seconds right at Full Burst, while also lowering her own damage taken by 57.86% for 15 seconds — an extremely durable shield, nearly immune while taunting.
- Skill 1 lowers both the target's DEF and ATK (8.4% each) on the last bullet, softening the target while reducing the damage it deals.
- Burst lowers ATK on the 10 highest-ATK enemies plus buffs squad-wide DEF while above 50% HP — reducing wide-area damage pressure.
Weaknesses
- A pure defense/debuff role, Lucilla's own damage is very low (normal attack only 10.32% ATK per hit).
- Skill 2's Taunt effect doesn't work against some bosses immune to aggro-pulling.
- The Burst DEF buff only triggers while Lucilla is above 50% HP, needing healer support if she gets low.

Campaign
- Frontline squad: Liter · Lucilla · Blanc · Privaty · Modernia. Lucilla anchors the formation via shreds enemy DEF+ATK on last bullet, self-taunt+damage reduction at Full Burst start, AoE ulti + team DEF buff; Liter fuels Burst, Blanc opens with AoE, Privaty buffs ATK, Modernia finishes.
- General frame: Lucilla as main shield + 1 CDR (Liter, Volume) + 1 burst-gen + 2 flex DPS (Viper, Brid). Prioritize Lucilla on stages with dangerous AoE damage.

- Jackal-style one-shot: Centi · Blanc · Liter · Guillotine · Lucilla. Lucilla soaks the opening counter via shreds enemy DEF+ATK on last bullet, self-taunt+damage reduction at Full Burst start, AoE ulti + team DEF buff, letting Centi/Blanc push max Burst for Guillotine's finisher.
- Anti one-shot variant: Noise · Lucilla · Centi · Jackal · Naga. Lucilla and Jackal share the damage so the team survives the enemy's opening burst.

- Main taunt team: Lucilla · Liter · Mast · Modernia · Guillotine. Lucilla pulls all hate via shreds enemy DEF+ATK on last bullet, self-taunt+damage reduction at Full Burst start, AoE ulti + team DEF buff, keeping the team alive long enough for Modernia/Guillotine to burst.
- Sustain backup: Noise · Liter · Novel · Helm · Lucilla. Pairing Lucilla with Noise/Helm forms a double defensive layer for tough Solo Raids.
