Laevatain

Laevatain is a 6-star Operator of the Heat Attribute and Striker Class. She specializes in dealing massive amounts of Heat damage to enemies when her Ultimate is up, allowing her to take advantage of Heat inflictions on enemies to deal powerful Arts damage to them in a big AoE area. She serves as a main DPS character for a Heat centric team.

Laevatain is a main DPS carry character that heavily relies on her Ultimate to do strong damage to enemies in a wide area, making her extremely useful in various contents like farming and against large waves of enemies.

Laevatain’s gameplay rotation is relatively simple: before taking the field, players want to have Laevatain’s teammates inflict as much Heat Infliction stacks on enemies as possible, then trigger their finishing move on the enemies to allow Laevatain to absorb enemies’ Heat Infliction and gain Melting Flames. Whenever an ally inflicts Heat Infliction on enemies, Laevatain will also trigger her combo skill, allowing her to unleash powerful attacks to enemies from the ground.

After gaining enough Melting Flames stacks, switch onto Laevatain as the controlled Operator and use her skill. This will trigger an additional damage instance to enemies due to her having maximum Melting Flames stacks and allow her to generate extra Ultimate Energy. Once her Ultimate Energy is filled, use her Ultimate to allow her to summon her familiar and massively enhance her Basic Attacks. During this time, unleash as many powerful attacks as possible when she is on field and finishes off with her Finisher before switching off field once her Ultimate ends.

Gilberta

Gilberta is a 6-star Operator of the Nature Element and Supporter class. She excels at using her special arts attacks to gather enemies and apply various crowd control effects on the enemies to create good opportunities for the entire team to strike the enemies all at the same time. Additionally, she can offer the team a good healing effect and arts amplification effect depending on her skill combos

Gilberta is an amazing Hybrid DPS Support character that specializes in grouping and crowd controlling large groups of enemies for the team to deal amazing damage to them all at the same time while also providing the team with amazing supportive buffs and disruptive debuffs on enemies.

Gilberta mainly serves as an off-field operator that combos well with other operators whenever they attack by providing the team with amazing crowd control abilities. Her main abilities lie in her Combat and Combo skills, both of which allow her to apply different crowd control effects on enemies. Whenever her combat skill is used Gilberta can create a gravity well, allowing her to pull enemies towards a point on the map, with lighter enemies being grouped together, while heavier enemies also being dragged towards the gravity point. After a short while, this point explodes, dealing Nature damage and inflicting Nature Infliction on enemies. This ability allows Gilbert to be a rare operator with the ability to group enemies and inflict Nature Inflictions, making her a good enabler for different team comps that want to group enemies together. 

Ardelia

Ardelia is a 6-star Operator of the Supporter Class in the game. She specializes in dealing Nature damage to enemies, healing the team and providing amazing damage increases to the team with her resistance reduction abilities.

Ardelia’s skill kit allows her to apply Corruption to enemies, then consume the Corruption stacks to apply both Physical and Arts Susceptibility on the enemies, making them take more damage from both Physical and Arts attacks. Not only that, she also offers amazing healing ability to the entire team with her Skill and Ultimate, allowing her to sustain the team while offering amazing buffs.

Ardelia’s powerful buffing and sustain skill allow her to be slotted into many different team comps and offer comfortable rotation to different types of teams as well, making her very powerful.

Pogranichnik

Pogranichnik is a 6-star Operator of the Vanguard class. He specializes in enabling the Physical damage team by recovering SP to the team with his abilities while also inflicting enemies with Physical Effects that deal massive amounts of damage to enemies. He wields a sword as his main weapon type.

Pogranichnik is an amazing Support character for the Physical team, offering many different powerful utilities all in a single skill kit. Pogranichnik can help to trigger special Physical effects on enemies, allowing the team to deal more damage and recover the team’s SP with his Battle Skill and Combo Skill. With his Ultimate, Pogranichnik can summon multiple soldiers on the field, dealing damage, crowd controlling the enemies and boosting the team’s damage output.

Having Pogranichnik in the team helps to massively improve the damage output of the Physical team while also helping to enable different Physical Effects, making him the core to many different Physical teams.

Which Operator To Focus On

– Focus on Getting Operators You Don’t Have: This is a generally no-brainer strategy when it comes to this banner. The Fest of Brilliance banner benefits players that have less of these 6-Star Rate Up Operators than those who don’t, so focus on aiming for and choosing the 6-Star Operators that you don’t have should be the priority.

– Focus On Getting Limited Operators: Among the rated up Operators on the banner, Laevatain and Gilberta are Limited Operators that can no longer appear in the summoning pool when players roll on the Featured Character Rate Up banners. Therefore, if you don’t have these characters or if you want to increase the potential of these operators, rolling on this banner might prove to be a very good opportunity to get these Limited Operators.

– All of The Operators On The Banner Is Strong: All of the operators featured on this banner is particularly strong in their roles, with Laevatain being the best Heat Main DPS character, Ardelia being an amazing universal Healer for any team comps, Gilberta being an excellent Supporter and Crowd Control operator for any team comps and Pogranichnik being a core member to any Physical teams due to his powerful skill kit. Getting any of these operators will be beneficial for players when building the different teams, so rolling on this banner is a very good consideration that players should make.
