Valeria Details

Is Valeria a Good Esper in Dislyte?

Valeria is a Fighter Esper with a SPD and AP focus. Indeed, both her basic ability, Launching Tide, and her third ability, Serpent Surge, see their damage scale as her SPD increases. This can stack up quite fast with the right build and the SPD Up buff she can gain from Serpent Surge. In addition, both of these abilities can reduce the AP of their targets for maximum disruption.

Lastly, her second ability, Plum Feathers, is a passive that triggers at the end of her turn. When activated, Valeria gains two unique buffs called Snake Shape and Power Reserve. Snake Shape increases the damage of her basic ability while Power Reserve reduces damage taken by 50% and increases her AP by 20% when triggered. Power Reserve is granted to all allies when her Resonance is up to Divine Gate 2.

Valeria Divinate

You can collect Divinates for an Esper to increase their Divinate tier up to a maximum tier of 6. You can learn more about this feature in our Dislyte Esper Guide. The below shows the buffs Valeria receives at her maximum Divinate tier and maximum Divinate level:

• When the bearer’s SPD is above the target’s, Launching Tide’s Final Damage +30%

Valeria Equipment

There are a few options you can take with Valeria when it comes to your Equipment choice. Her damage scales off of SPD so either increasing this with the Wind set or secondary attributes is an obvious choice or alternatively maxing out her crit damage. Additionally, once she hits R2 then she will apply Power Reserve to all allies every turn, increasing her counter rate will maximize the times this procs. Therefore, you should look to apply the following sets:

• War: ATK +30%
• Wind: SPD +25%
• Thunder: C. DMG +50% and an extra +30% when attacking Bosses
• Fiery: C.RATE +20%

Lastly, Valeria’s Equipment characteristics should prioritize C. RATE, ATK BONUS, C. DMG, and SPD.
