Fadia Build Guide

Psyche Bureau of Anomaly Control, ETD-4 View Character

Fadia is a Survival character whose gimmick is to mitigate the damage her teammates take by taking part of the damage herself. Then, upon reaching a certain threshold, she can perform an empowered version of her Ultimate, which deals more damage and heals more of Fadia's HP. This makes Fadia a great tank and sub-DPS, although managing her HP will take some getting used to.

Strengths

  • Mitigates team damage by redirecting part of it to herself.
  • Can deal good damage with empowered Ultimate.
  • Versatile tank and sub-DPS.

Weaknesses

  • Needs careful HP management to trigger optimal effects.
  • Requires team synergy (Chaos or Lakshana) to maximize potential.
  • Off-field reliance may not suit all playstyles.

Best Teams

Fadia Discord Team

Fadia mitigates damage for the team, keeping everyone alive with her passive. Nanally serves as Main DPS, Daffodill as Sub-DPS, and Sakiri as buffer. Adler can replace Sakiri for more survivability.

Alternatives

Apply Scorch and Nova to trigger Discord.

Use Hexed for follow-up damage.

  • Damage redirects before shield mitigation; Adler improves survivability.
Fadia Charge Team

Fadia mitigates damage, Mint is Main DPS, Esper Zero and Hathor are Sub-DPS. Skia can replace Hathor.

Alternatives

Focus on Charge Eclipse Cycle to charge Ultimates.

Apply Stain and Remora; summon Vita Buds with Blossom.

  • Similar to Discord Team, Fadia mitigates damage.

How to Play

Fadia takes the role of an HP-scaling Sub-DPS tank unit, changing from off-field tank support to on-field Psyche DMG driver. Keep her off-field to maximize damage tanking. Use Skill on highest HP enemy, then swap off. When HP reaches threshold, use Skill then Ultimate for front-loaded damage.

Rotations

  1. 1 Keep Fadia off-field until HP reaches ~80% or lower → Switch to Fadia → Fadia Skill → Fadia Ultimate → Full Basic Attack Combo → Swap to Main DPS.

Tips

  • Team up with Chaos or Lakshana characters for Nova or Stain synergies.
  • Ultimate provides great stall potential; heal up after taking damage.
