Dislyte Esper Guides: Leora (Athena)

Originating from Athena, the Greek goddess of war, handicraft, and practical reason, Leora is a Legendary Flow Fighter Esper. She makes use of powerful attack abilities which can also grant powerful protection buffs to allies and devastating debuffs to the enemy.

Leora Details

Is Leora a Good Esper in Dislyte?

Leora is a truly stacked Fighter Esper who can do almost everything: deal huge damage, dispel enemy buffs, apply protection buffs to allies, and debuff the enemy to decrease the damage they can do. She is excellent at wave clearing in PvE, such as Kronos, due to a passive which resets her ability cooldowns at the start of each wave, and in Point War where her stacked is a real menace to counter.

Overall, the highlight of her kit is her unique War Goddess buff can trigger from her second ability, Dawn Guardian, which grants Standoff to all allies, and her third ability, Daylight Beam, which also dispells buffs from a target, deals huge AoE damage, and applies C. RATE Down debuffs to enemies. War Goddess sees Leora’s damage scale further based on the difference between her C. RATE and that of her targets. It also grants 1 ally a Shield.

Leora Equipment

Leora’s kit is best when fully utilizing her unique War Goddess buff. To make maximum use of this you’ll want maximum C. RATE for huge damage, along with increased C. DMG to back it up. Therefore, you should look to apply the following sets:
