Skia
A niche DPS enabling Stain/Remora, needing the right team to shine. An A-rank for those who like the burst playstyle; skippable if you don't have a reaction team.
Best Skia build
Main DPS / enabler (Lakshana). The game labels her Main DPS but her kit leans toward short bursts: stacking Fang Thrust, burrowing to detonate, and opening up the Stain/Remora reaction for the whole team (Shadow Hound Chase). Plays best in a Remora/Stain team.
Sources place Skia in the low-mid group (around B): a niche DPS/enabler — his biggest value is opening Stain/Remora for the team rather than raw DPS; outside the right reaction team his effectiveness drops.
- 1Watch Your Heads! BiS An A-rank Arc built right into her kit: raises Lakshana DMG after Redirect Skill, Base ATK 475 plus a 40% CRIT DMG substat, benefiting from the Remora passive. Class FOUR matches Skia.
- 2Good Boy's Grand Adventure S-rank Arc, class FOUR: high Ultimate charge efficiency plus increased team-wide ATK for 20s after Ult — a support/enabler direction.
Watch Your Heads!
Good Boy's Grand Adventure- 4-pc Street Boxer 2pc Lakshana DMG +10%; 4pc CRIT Rate +14% baseline, rising to +28% when the team triggers Remora/Stain — fits Skia's frequent basic attacks.
Main stats: ATK% › CRIT Rate › Lakshana DMG
Substats: CRIT Rate › CRIT DMG › ATK%
Verdict confidence: medium — his role + arc (Watch Your Heads!/Street Boxer) are consistent between Western and Japanese tier lists; the enabler kit is confirmed, but the meta is only 3 months old, so the tier is self-inferred.
