Gilberta is an exceptional support unit with the highest Arts Susceptibility in the game, making her a cornerstone for Arts teams. Her ability to apply multiple debuffs (Nature Infliction, Lift, Vulnerability) and a team-wide Ultimate Gain Efficiency buff gives her extraordinary flexibility across many compositions. She fits both core and flex slots, enabling hybrid and elemental teams alike.
endgame support endgamesupportenergy_generationteam_buff
This endgame support build focuses on maximizing Gilberta's debuff uptime and team damage amplification. The signature weapon Delivery Guaranteed provides essential Ultimate Gain Efficiency and a team Arts DMG buff. The Eternal Xiranite gear set grants additional Intellect, Will, and a team-wide damage boost whenever she applies Susceptibility or other debuffs. Using an off-set Redeemer Armor further increases her Ultimate Gain and Intellect. This setup ensures she can cast her Ultimate frequently to inflict massive Arts Susceptibility, enabling her team to shred enemies.

Explanation

Delivery Guaranteed is her signature and the clear best choice because it directly boosts her energy regeneration and amplifies team Arts damage.
Eternal Xiranite gear synergizes perfectly: it provides Intellect and Will while the 4-piece effect grants a team damage buff whenever she applies a debuff (e.g., via Ultimate).
The Redeemer Armor off-piece is chosen over the Eternal Xiranite armor because it offers superior Ultimate Gain and Intellect stats for this specific slot.
Alternatives: Opus: Etch Figure if Delivery Guaranteed is unavailable, sacrificing some energy gain; Stanza of Memorials as a budget option.

Notes

  • Uses the signature weapon for maximum Ultimate Gain Efficiency and a powerful team-wide Arts DMG buff.
  • Eternal Xiranite set grants additional team DMG dealed when Gilberta applies debuffs.
  • Off-set Redeemer Armor boosts Intellect and Ultimate Gain, further improving Ultimate uptime.
early game support early_gamebeginnersupport
This early-game build prioritizes energy regeneration and accessibility. The Catastrophe gear set's Ultimate Gain Efficiency and initial SP help Gilberta cast her debuffs quickly. Stanza of Memorials provides a solid team damage buff, especially valuable when she is the sole Nature unit. As you progress, transition to the endgame build for better stats and team-wide bonuses.

Fluorescent Roc is a fallback option if Stanza is not yet obtained, providing a small Will boost.

Notes

  • Catastrophe set provides early Ultimate Gain Efficiency and an initial SP boost.
  • Stanza of Memorials buffs team damage when she's the only Nature unit.
  • This build helps apply debuffs more frequently without rare items.

Build Insights

Gilberta acts as a premier debuffer and buffer. She enables Arts teams by shredding enemy resistance with the highest Arts Susceptibility and providing extra Vulnerability. She works best as a teammate from the sidelines, using crowd control to group enemies and applying Nature Infliction for reactions. Her talent boosts energy regeneration for key allies, ensuring smoother rotations. She excels in teams that can take advantage of her debuff window, such as those with strong Nature or Arts damage dealers. She can also support hybrid teams by applying Vulnerability and enabling reactions.
Core Mechanics
  • Arcane Staff: Gravity Mode creates a gravity well that pulls enemies and applies Nature Infliction.
  • After an Arts Reaction, her Arcane Staff: Matrix Displacement pulls and Lifts enemies, adding Vulnerability stacks.
  • The Ultimate, Arcane Staff: Gravity Field, inflicts Nature Infliction and slows enemies while applying strong Arts Susceptibility, further amplified by Vulnerability.
  • Her Talent Messenger's Song grants extra Ultimate Gain Efficiency to all Guards, Casters, and Supporters.
Scaling
  • Early game: relies on Stanza of Memorials and Catastrophe gear for energy, making her debuffs accessible sooner.
  • Mid to late game: scales with Ultimate Gain Efficiency and Will to maximize debuff uptime and team buff potential.
  • Team dependency: thrives in Arts-focused comps but flexible enough for hybrid teams that appreciate Arts Susceptibility and Vulnerability.

Character Notes

Gilberta is a top-tier Support who applies the strongest Arts Susceptibility in the game. Her kit includes crowd control via gravity pulls, Nature Infliction, Lift, and a team energy regeneration talent. She excels at enabling both Arts and hybrid teams by drastically lowering enemy resistance and providing Vulnerability stacks. Her role is to stay off-field, cast skills to set up debuffs, and let the main damage dealers capitalize. She is flexible, fitting many comps as a core enabler or flex support.
Playstyle
  • Use Arcane Staff: Gravity Mode to pull and group enemies, applying Nature Infliction.
  • After an Arts Reaction, trigger Arcane Staff: Matrix Displacement to Lift enemies and add Vulnerability.
  • Unleash Arcane Staff: Gravity Field to create a large area that slows, inflicts Arts Susceptibility, and resets Lift duration.
  • Keep her on the field only briefly to cycle skills; her main value is from debuffs, not sustained damage.
Strengths
  • Highest Arts Susceptibility in the game, massively boosting team Arts damage.
  • Flexible debuffs: Nature Infliction, Lift, slow, and Vulnerability.
  • Team-wide Ultimate Gain Efficiency via Messenger's Song.
  • Excellent crowd control with gravity pulls and forced Lift.
Weaknesses
  • Heavily reliant on Ultimate uptime; needs energy support or careful gear investment.
  • Low personal damage; a pure support.
  • Lift and Vulnerability require Arts Reaction setup, making her slightly composition-dependent.

Team Guide

best cryo_team
Gilberta anchors this Cryo-Nature team, enabling Yvonne to trigger her buffs through Solidification. Her crowd control complements Yvonne's lack of AoE, while Xaihi amplifies both elements and Alesh provides SP generation and additional Cryo infliction. The rotation relies on precise timing to stack debuffs and maximize Yvonne's Ultimate window.

Explanation

Gilberta's Battle Skill pulls enemies together and applies Nature infliction, setting up Solidification for Yvonne.
Yvonne can trigger her own buffs when attacking Solidified enemies, greatly increasing her damage output.
Xaihi's Battle Skill and Ultimate provide Cryo and Nature damage amplification, further boosting Yvonne.
Alesh's Ultimate applies Cryo infliction during Yvonne's burst, and his Combo Skill recovers SP to keep the rotation flowing.

Strengths

  • Excellent synergy between Solidification and Yvonne's kit.
  • Strong AoE crowd control from Gilberta mitigates Yvonne's single-target weakness.
  • Multiple damage amp sources combine to push Yvonne's burst potential very high.

Weaknesses

  • Extremely timing-sensitive; missing reaction windows significantly reduces effectiveness.
  • Gilberta's skills have noticeable wind-up animations that must be accounted for.

Rotation

  1. 1 Begin with Yvonne's basic attacks. Midway, cast Gilberta's Battle Skill to pull enemies and start channeling. Just before Yvonne's final strike, use Xaihi's Battle Skill to amplify the hit.
  2. 2 Once Gilberta's Battle Skill implodes and inflicts Nature, cast Yvonne's Battle Skill to trigger Solidification, then perform another final strike with Xaihi's amp.
  3. 3 Follow with Gilberta's Combo Skill to apply Lift and Yvonne's Combo Skill to reapply Solidify.
  4. 4 Cast Xaihi's Ultimate for team-wide Cryo and Nature amp, then activate Yvonne's Ultimate.
  5. 5 During Yvonne's Ultimate, hold down attack. Activate Alesh's Ultimate for Cryo infliction, then Gilberta's Ultimate for Nature infliction to trigger Corrosion and Arts Susceptibility.
  6. 6 Continue attacking with Yvonne until her Ultimate ends. Use Alesh's Combo Skill to recover SP, then Xaihi's Combo Skill to complete the rotation.
Stack Nature infliction with Gilberta, trigger Solidification with Yvonne's Battle Skill, then chain Combo Skills and Ultimates under Xaihi's amp to maximize Yvonne's burst.
best electric_team
A Electric-Nature team centered on boosting Avywenna's Thunderlance damage. Gilberta provides Arts Susceptibility and Nature infliction for Corrosion, while Perlica maintains Electric infliction. Arclight contributes SP and additional Electric application. Double debuffs from Electrification and Corrosion dramatically increase overall damage.

Explanation

Perlica applies Electric infliction so Avywenna can trigger her Combo Skill by hitting afflicted enemies with Thunderlances.
Gilberta's Battle Skill adds Nature infliction; when followed by another Electric source, it causes Corrosion, debuffing enemy resistances.
Arclight enhances SP generation and can also contribute to Electric infliction, ensuring constant uptime.
The combination of Electrification (increased Arts DMG taken) and Corrosion (reduced resistances) creates a massive damage multiplier for Avywenna's attacks.

Strengths

  • Double debuff setup amplifies Avywenna's Thunderlance damage significantly.
  • Gilberta's crowd control aids in grouping enemies for Avywenna's AoE Thunderlance hits.
  • Good SP economy thanks to Arclight.

Weaknesses

  • Mismanaging the timing of Gilberta's Battle Skill can consume Electric infliction prematurely, preventing Avywenna's Combo Skill activation.
  • Relies on accurate placement of Perlica to apply Electrification before Avywenna attacks.

Rotation

  1. 1 Place Perlica first in the team order to apply Electric infliction, then perform a final strike with Avywenna.
  2. 2 Activate Perlica's and Avywenna's Combo Skills, followed by Arclight's and Gilberta's Combo Skills.
  3. 3 Cast Arclight's and Gilberta's Battle Skills. After Corrosion triggers, use Perlica's Battle Skill again to reapply Electric infliction.
  4. 4 Perform another final strike with Avywenna. When Ultimates are ready, cast in order: Gilberta's for debuff, Arclight's for Electric infliction, then Perlica's for damage.
  5. 5 Use Avywenna's Ultimate when available, trigger her Combo Skill, then cast her Battle Skill to retrieve all Thunderlances, ensuring they hit enemies on return.
Set up Electric infliction for Avywenna, weave in Gilberta's Nature infliction to trigger Corrosion, then reapply Electric for Avywenna's next cycle. Save Ultimates for a big burst window.
alternative burst_team
A flexible hybrid team that stacks Vulnerable debuffs to enable massive burst from Da Pan. Gilberta groups enemies and provides both Nature infliction and Arts Susceptibility. Wulfgard triggers Combustion to activate Gilberta's Combo Skill for an early Vulnerable stack. Rossi then builds more Vulnerable stacks with her skills, setting up Crush for Da Pan. Perlica and Endministrator can substitute for a similar combo chain.

Explanation

Gilberta's Battle Skill gathers enemies and applies Nature infliction, which Wulfgard converts into Combustion using her Combo Skill.
The Combustion reaction triggers Gilberta's Combo Skill, applying Lift and the first stack of Vulnerable.
Rossi benefits from Arts Infliction provided by Gilberta or her own Ultimate, allowing her Combo Skill to grant critical buffs and her Battle Skill to apply Razor Clawmark.
With multiple Vulnerable stacks from Gilberta and Rossi, Da Pan's Combo Skill triggers Crush for devastating damage.
As an alternative, Perlica can replace Wulfgard to provide Electric infliction, and Endministrator can replace Da Pan as the main DPS, following a similar pattern of reactions.

Strengths

  • High single-target burst through Vulnerable stacking and Crush.
  • Strong crowd control from Gilberta's grouping and Lift.
  • Flexible slot replacements allow adaptation to different enemy lineups.

Weaknesses

  • Relies heavily on executing the correct combo sequence; missing a step reduces overall damage.
  • Requires specific characters (Rossi, Wulfgard) for optimal performance.

Rotation

  1. 1 Cast Gilberta's Battle Skill to group enemies and apply Nature infliction. Immediately trigger Wulfgard's Combo Skill to cause Combustion.
  2. 2 Use Gilberta's Combo Skill to apply Lift and the first Vulnerable stack.
  3. 3 Cast Gilberta's Battle Skill again or use Rossi's Ultimate to apply Arts Infliction.
  4. 4 Trigger Rossi's Combo Skill to gain critical buffs, then her Battle Skill to apply Razor Clawmark.
  5. 5 Activate Da Pan's Combo Skill to consume Vulnerable stacks and trigger Crush.
  6. 6 If Rossi's Ultimate was used in Step 3, cast Gilberta's Ultimate for additional debuffs, then use the extra SP for Wulfgard's Battle Skill to trigger its bonus attack.
Stack Vulnerable by chaining Gilberta's Combo Skill with Wulfgard's Combustion and Rossi's rotations, then finish with Da Pan's Crush.

Team Insights

Gilberta is a versatile support who excels at enabling elemental reactions and applying debuffs. Her kit revolves around Nature infliction, crowd control, and Arts Susceptibility. She shines in teams that can capitalize on reactions like Solidification, Corrosion, and Combustion. Whether paired with Cryo DPS units like Yvonne or Electric DPS like Avywenna, Gilberta provides the necessary elemental afflictions and grouping to maximize ally damage. In hybrid comps, her ability to apply Lift and Vulnerable through Combo Skill makes her a key enabler for stacking debuffs and triggering high-damage reactions like Crush.
Synergy Patterns
  • Pair with Yvonne for easy Solidification triggers—Gilberta's Nature infliction sets up the reaction, and Yvonne's Battle Skill consumes it for massive damage.
  • With Avywenna, the Corrosion reaction (Nature + Electric) reduces resistances, and Gilberta's Arts Susceptibility further amplifies Thunderlance damage.
  • In hybrid teams, Wulfgard's Combustion on Nature-afflicted enemies activates Gilberta's Combo Skill for instant Vulnerable application.
  • Rossi benefits greatly from Gilberta's Arts Infliction (via Battle Skill or Ultimate), enabling her own Combo Skill buffs and Razor Clawmark.
Tips
  • Always account for Gilberta's skill wind-up animations; cast her abilities early to allow reactions to land at the correct moment.
  • In the Electric-Nature team, never apply another Electric infliction before Gilberta's Battle Skill triggers Corrosion, or you'll lose Avywenna's Combo Skill condition.
  • Position Gilberta to maximize the grouping effect of her Battle Skill; this improves follow-up AoE attacks from Yvonne, Avywenna, or Da Pan.
  • When using the hybrid team, prioritize getting at least two Vulnerable stacks before unleashing Da Pan's Combo Skill for optimal Crush damage.
