Cristallo — Review & Analysis
Cristallo is a 4-star Mineral support-debuffer, leaning firmly toward survival and control rather than damage. Her Ultimate inflicts [Severely Wounded] on the whole enemy side, cutting healing received by 50% — a real headache against foes that rely on self-healing — while also applying [Radiotherapy], dealing end-of-round Origin DMG scaled off her ATK. Incantation II grants the team [Sturdy] and boosts both Reality and Mental DEF, and her passive quietly heals the lowest-HP ally whenever she's attacked. She's a tanky anti-heal debuffer with a modest dash of side damage.
- Her Ultimate is AoE anti-heal ([Severely Wounded] -50% healing received) — a strong counter to enemies and bosses that lean on self-healing.
- Incantation II buffs the whole team at once: a stack of [Sturdy] to soak damage plus higher Reality and Mental DEF, backed by her passive off-heal on the lowest-HP ally, keeping the party sturdy.
- Incantation I shreds armor: cuts the target's Reality DEF by up to 30-40% (with Molding), opening up damage for Reality-type DPS.
- Low-tier placement: her kit spreads across many roles (tanking, buffing, anti-heal, side damage), so no single facet truly stands out, making her hard to justify over dedicated supports.
- As a Mineral unit she's countered by Star (-30% when facing it), and both her [Radiotherapy] damage and passive heal scale off ATK — a stat that stays low on a tank-leaning character.
Level her Ultimate first — it's her signature, and both the anti-heal and Origin DMG grow through its Molding upgrades. Then invest in Incantation I to push the DEF shred up to 30-40%. Since both [Radiotherapy] damage and her passive heal scale off ATK, an ATK-oriented Psychube maximizes both; if you'd rather run her as a pure damage-soaker, swap to a DEF/survival-oriented Psychube to keep her on the field longer.
