Dislyte Esper Guides: Dhalia (Calypso)

Originating from Calypso, a nymph best known from Homer’s Odyssey, Dhalia is a Support Esper with a focus on AP manipulation, as well as buffs and debuffs. She’s the only 4* Esper that is always exclusive to ripples, with Ye Suhua and Melanie both being 3*, and she’s an incredible asset to Point War teams in particular.

Dhalia Details

Is Dhalia a Good Esper in Dislyte?

Dhalia is one of the most well-loved Espers in Dislyte, and this is mostly because of her AP manipulation and ability to stop opponents in their tracks while benefitting the rest of her team and dealing a fair amount of damage herself. For a Support Esper, though she doesn’t heal she’s very much a Jack of All Trades in other regards.

In battle, an Esper will utilize their abilities in order to deal damage to the enemy and support their team.

Dhalia Equipment

As Dhalia is a Support Esper, she benefits greatly from higher speed, because this allows her to get her buffs and debuffs in before other Espers. This is also because she’s very useful in Point War, which is a game mode that benefits greatly from having high speed.

Along with this, while her damage isn’t too bad considering her role, she’s still pretty physically flimsy and easily knocked out if targeted. As such, improving factors like her defense, HP, and giving her a shield are incredibly helpful in keeping her up so that she can continue to support the rest of the team. Speed is the most important factor with this Esper in particular, but all Support Espers likely need some extra help staying alive.

Therefore, you should look to apply the following sets:

• Wind: +25% SPD
• Aegis: All allied Espers start the battle with a Shield equal to 20% of their max HP. Duration: 2 turns
• Grove: +25% HP

Lastly, Dhalia’s Equipment characteristics should prioritize HP, DEF, ACC, and SPD.
