6 — Review & Analysis

6

6 is a 6★ Intellect unit filling a versatile debuffer / buffer / sub-DPS role. Incantation I is an AoE that randomly applies 2 debuffs (DEF shreds, Blind, Laceration...), while Incantation II cleanses allies and grants them 2 buffs, and Insight III spreads a buff to the whole team each round and blankets all enemies with debuffs before the ultimate. The Final Rite deals 700% Mental DMG and then adds up to 4 instances of +75% based on how many debuffs the target holds — since 6 applies those debuffs himself, he is a self-sufficient link that both controls and finishes.

Strengths
  • Rare dual utility: mass-applies debuffs to enemies (Incantation I + Insight III) while also buffing and cleansing allies (Incantation II + the per-round buff spread from Insight III).
  • The Final Rite stacks up to 4 instances of +75% DMG based on the target's debuff count — and since 6 seeds those debuffs himself, the burst is entirely self-sufficient.
  • His passive rewards attacking debuffed targets (Insight I 16%, raised to 24% via Resonance) and self-generates Moxie when low, keeping his energy loop smooth.
Weaknesses
  • The Intellect afflatus stands outside the counter cycle — it counters nothing and is countered by nothing, so her power depends purely on stats and kit, not the enemy's Afflatus.
  • Both buffs and debuffs are handed out RANDOMLY (2 of 6), so you can't guarantee the exact effect you want, and the ultimate's bonus damage needs Moxie ≥6 to fire — making him slow to ramp on the opening turn.
Build Priority

Level The Final Rite (ultimate) first to maximise both the 700% multiplier and the debuff-scaling bonus, then Incantation I, since it is his main debuff engine feeding both the ultimate and the passive. Because 6 both deals Mental DMG and supports, favour a DMG/ATK-oriented Psychube to push his ultimate's burst; if you run him mainly as a buffer-controller for the team, a utility support Psychube is also a sound fit.

Ultimate Detonation · Ult

Anjo Nala, Recoleta and Cornerstone all tap into Ultimate together with Moxie — combining it across three kits at once outperforms any single carry doing it alone. Ezra Theodore keeps the line-up alive with Shield so that payoff has time to land.
