Review

Review

Marilee is an A-Level Marksman of the Lightbearer faction. Her kit revolves around staying a good few tiles away from her target, inflicting consistent (and high!) damage while kiting them.

Her bread and butter is the "Hyperfocus" skill, which increases her ATK and ATK SPD if there are no enemies within 2 tiles of her. This makes staying as far away from the opponent as possible key with Marilee, as she loses these buffs when enemies move close to her. This is done either passively in Dream Realm or through the use of her Ultimate "Mid-Air Shot", which causes Marilee to flip to the targeted tile and attack enemies as she passes by.

Her other skill, "Mighty Arrow", is a simple damage skill that also inflicts a short stun (used to interrupt opponents from moving in too fast). This helps with her kiting but is otherwise unimpressive.

Her Exclusive Weapon is where it's at, though, as it unlocks "Battlefield Learning". This skill grants Marilee a stacking ATK bonus whenever allies cast an Ultimate and upon reaching max stacks, her basic attacks begin to deal True damage. This combined with "Hyperfocus" and any Support that in some way boosts her ATK SPD turns Marilee into a scaling monster that mows down health bars so long as nothing enters within her "Hyperfocus" range. This is most often utilized in Dream Realm, as those bosses don't move and allow Marilee to hit them from basically anywhere.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • High consistent single-target damage so long as "Hyperfocus" conditions are met.

  • Further improvements to damage output with EX Weapon.

  • Low rarity so more easily invested in.

Cons

  • Relies on a tiny stun and Ultimate to get away from enemies that manage to get in.

  • Is in the Lightbearer faction so struggles against high-prio targets like Cecia/Thoran/Carolina and gets blown up by Silvina.

EX Investment

Since the

Temporal Essence
Temporal Essence
and
Twilight Essence
Twilight Essence
are very hard to obtain, you have to be really careful with the using them to upgrade the EX weapon. And in this guide we ordered all characters by the priority when it comes to how much they need investment in their EX weapon to work well and where should you stop to get the best bang for your buck.

Why does the +8 breakpoint appear so often?

Because the raw stats you get from upgrading the EX weapon help you more than the passive in some cases. Also, to upgrade the EX from +5 to +8 you need only 30x

Temporal Essence
Temporal Essence
, while the remaining two levels require additional 45x
Temporal Essence
Temporal Essence
. So you get the best bang for your buck stopping at +8.

Color explanation:

  • +0 - the base investment for the character,
  • +5/8 - the next step that you should do when investing into that character,
  • +10/15 - the final step you should do when investing into that character - you can go beyond that later though once you have the Essences to spare.
