She is favored by fate under one name, and swept away by it in another. Yet never once has she been defeated, nor has she ever yielded.<br/>Now, witness the defiant Priestess. Witness what keeps her striding forward, never to look back. Witness how she walks the intricate web of destiny and becomes the only answer.
Best Echo Sets for Iuno
Best — Crown of Valor is Iuno's best-in-slot because she can self-generate shields through her kit, allowing her to reach Valor stack requirements and maximize personal damage while buffing the team.
Second best — 5-piece Moonlit Clouds funnels more buffs to the next incoming Resonator. Good early-to-mid game; replace with Crown of Valor when available.
Iuno's Best Primary Echo
Lady of the Sea
Best main Echo for Iuno — provides Aero and Resonance Liberation DMG Bonuses, belongs to Crown of Valor set, and its Echo Skill gives useful crowd control. Iuno can reach the required Valor stacks easily due to her shield generation.
Impermanence Heron
Alternative — used for a Moonlit Clouds set to funnel buffs to the incoming Resonator. Sacrifices Iuno's personal damage but benefits team Resonators; good early-game option if Crown of Valor isn't available.
