Listen closely to the whispers of those falling into dreams. Freya deals 2 hits of 130% damage to a single enemy. The first hit has 60% chance to apply [Dreamweave] to a random ally for 2 turns, while the second hit has a 30% chance to apply [Nightmare] to the target for 2 turns.
Dream Guide: Each time an ally receives buffs, their Turn Meter increases by 4%. Each time an enemy receives debuffs, there's a 70% chance to reduce their Turn Meter by 4%. Each effect can trigger up to 3 times per turn; when Freya receives buffs or debuffs, the Dream Guide effect is doubled.

Freya’s kit has everything: from buffs to debuffs, and healing. She revolves around increasing allies’ turn meter whenever an ally receives a buff (from anyone), and decreasing the enemies’ turn meter when an enemy receives a debuff (from anyone) with a 70% chance, up to a 12% turn meter reduction or increase per skill. Furthermore, when Freya herself receives buffs or applies debuffs, the amount is doubled, up to 24%, allowing her to do some nasty turn meter manipulation.
She also has two unique status effects: a buff called [Dreamweave] and a debuff called [Nightmare]:
[Dreamweave] will cleanse a debuff on an ally once, stacking up to three times; however, it does not automatically cleanse debuffs applied before gaining stacks of [Dreamweave].
[Nightmare] increases the damage enemies take, and heals allies for 15% of the damage they dealt to someone with the debuff.
On top of this, she can also apply AOE [DEF+] and AOE [ATK+], allowing her to be a very versatile support unit.
She’s very useful in PVE modes, being an easy slot in on enemies that can have their turn meter lowered. However, as the chance to proc the 4% turn meter decrease is only 70%, you're forced to build a lot of Effect ACC on her, and even with it, you're still at the mercy of RNG.
Freya can be very annoying with a unit like Heinrich as he’s able to make use of Freya’s [Dream Inducer] passive in an AOE fashion with his S2 and S3, allowing Heinrich to block or strip buffs, while also lowering their turn meter. If you want a toxic combination, Rosa’s S3 is an AOE [SPD-], so when comboing that with Freya’s turn meter reduction, it can get crazy very quickly.
However, debuff immunity is Freya’s achilles’ heel, so in PVP, units like Helkid will be a bad matchup for Freya (which is why Heinrich removing barriers will make for a good combo!)
Pros & Cons
Pros
Has both great buffs and debuffs,
Allows allies to heal themselves by dealing damage,
Can manipulate the turn meter both for allies and enemies,
Great synergy with other debuffers.
Cons
Struggles against enemies with debuff Immunity,
Can't act as a dedicated healer because supportive characters don't attack often, so they won't benefit from the leech.

Best Build
The builds below are tailored more toward PVE and we only mention PVP in some places - like for alternative Shells or Module choices. But PVE is our focus.
Best Shells
1
After the main body's turn, a Follow-up Attack on the main target dealing 240%+4200 damage, applies [SPD+] for 3 turns to the main Animus, applies and increases their Turn Meter by 25%.
Widely used and incredibly potent all-around supportive option, granting a 25% gauge boost on use as well as [SPD+] boost with 100% uptime. It also deals decent damage when used. Possesses most of the best supportive matrixes, further adding to its flexibility and wide use cases. Loses most of its value when used in teams that already have a team member granting the [SPD+] buff with good uptime.
The go-to Shell for Freya that allows her to cycle faster in longer battles. If you already have a Speed buffer in your team though, the value of Jackal Guard drops quite a bit, but since Timeweave is present there, it's still worth using in longer PVE battles.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Timeweave [12/12]
![Matrix]()
>Swiftrush [12/12]![Matrix]()
>Bloodbath [12/12]![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Swiftrush [8/12]
![Matrix]()
>Bulwark [8/8]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: >Swiftsmite [6/6]
![Matrix]()
You can use
- 12 set: Swiftrush [12/12]
![Matrix]()
- 8 set: Bramble [8/8]
![Matrix]()
- 6 set: None - early one you can't use an Inferno set.
Specialist Shells
Below you can find some alternative Shells you can use - though it's mainly for PVP scenarios.
1
When the owner Animus is about to die, halves their current Turn Meter, removes all effects on them, recovers 60% of their Max HP, and puts them into a 1-turn [Iced] state.,
The cooldown of the skill can't be reduced.
Allows the wearer to cheat death once every 6 turns. Upon dying, they will instead recover 60% HP and enter a special state, becoming immune to turn meter reductions, debuffs, buffs, and also gaining 200% increased DEF until the start of their next turn. A powerful option for keeping vulnerable high-value units alive in PVP.
2
Before the owner takes action, if the owner has any debuffs, dispels 2 debuff(s) and increases their Effect RES by 25% for every 1 debuff(s) dispelled, lasting for 2 turn(s).
A PVP-focused shell option offering a 2-turn debuff cleanse and up to 50% Effect RES at turn start with a 4-turn cooldown. A solid option for characters who need to ensure they aren’t taken out of the fight by stuns, freezes, or other debilitating effects on their opening turn.
Module Calcs/Information
Below you can find the calculations for specific module sets - split per slot. Click on the dropdown to reveal the information. The % comparison are made against no set equipped.
1
6/12: Effect ACC +18%
12/12: Effect ACC +18%. At the start of the turn, there is a 35% chance to reduce CD of all Animus skills by 1 turn.
A potent specialist option for supports, allowing cooldown times to occasionally be reduced. Though requiring 12 Matrixes to fully activate puts it in conflict with the universal 12P Swiftrush set, forcing you to skip on the full effect of Swiftrush, opting for 12P Timeweaver 8P Swiftrush and 6P inferno instead. Timeweave allows to cycle the skills faster, especially early on when you don't have them leveled up - so they have very long cooldowns.
2
4/12: SPD +8%
8/12: SPD +20%
12/12: SPD +35%
The go-to set for most Supports thanks to its massive Speed boost, allowing for faster cycling and priority in the initial turn order.
3
6/12: Effect RES +18%
12/12: Effect RES +18%. When the total DMG taken in a turn exceeds 20% of Max HP, the excess DMG is additionally reduced by 55%.
Exceptional anti-burst defensive set, most notably used in PVP to prevent enemies from one-shotting your team with aggressive combo compositions. It can also be used in specific PvE encounters, but it is far more niche.
8 Piece sets:
1
4/12: SPD +8%
8/12: SPD +20%
12/12: SPD +35%
The go-to set for most Supports thanks to its massive Speed boost, allowing for faster cycling and priority in the initial turn order. 8-PC Swiftrush is enough for PVE, because the value of Timeweave is that big.
2
4/8: DEF +10%
8/8: DEF +10%. After being attacked, advances Turn Meter by 10%.
A powerful specialist option for Supports and, in some cases, DPS characters. When used in PVP, it can allow you to ‘catch up’ against teams that move before you, giving you a chance to fight back. In PvE, it can be a strong gauge boosting tool in fights against many enemies or bosses that hit your team incredibly frequently.
3
4/8: HP +10%
8/8: HP +10%. At the start of each wave of battle, grants Immunity for 1 turn. Immunity = [Cannot be inflicted with any debuff].
Grants immunity to the wearer at the start of battle, protecting them from controlling effects. Primarily used in PVP to counter control compositions dominating your team - more of a niche pick in PVE.
1
6/6: SPD +15% & Effect ACC +20%
The go-to option for most supports, thanks to its presence on many of the best supportive Shells and the strong SPD and Effect ACC it grants. Can be used on some DPS setups if Shell requirements demand it.
Best Stats
Substats:
SPD (Until Desired) > Effect ACC (Until Desired) > HP% > Flat HP
Stat comments
Freya has three stats to pay attention to across gear:
- SPD: Speed is the most important stat for any debuffer as it will allow them to cycle faster in combat and use their skills more often.
- Effect ACC: Effect ACC will increase the chance to land the debuffs/dispel, so prioritize it as the main stat on the right-side pieces.
- HP%: Some bulk will help them survive longer, but SPD and Effect ACC have higher priority.
Shell Passives
Slot 1
HP% > HP > DEF% > DEF
Slot 2
SPD > Effect ACC
Slot 3
Effect ACC (Gaze) > Effect ACC (Insight) > DMG Taken
Passive comments
- Slot 1: HP% is optimal, but if you're lacking in materials Flat HP can also be used. If you get DEF% or DEF of higher rarity, keep it though for now.
- Slot 2: Speed is better in most situations, but if you roll Effect ACC you can keep it for some time.
- Slot 3: The stacking Effect ACC buff granted by Gaze is great and it becomes better the longer the fight lasts. Though, if you're running one-shot teams (or PVP a lot), you can consider using Insight instead as the fights are shorter and it gives you better boost initially.
