Review
Mia has many useful abilities as a healer, making her highly versatile for all types of content.
Her S1 not only applies a shield to the lowest HP ally every time she uses the ability (even from counterattacks), but the passive part of the skill grants damage reduction to each Animus in the team based on the number of buffs active on them. This effect is calculated separately for each Animus, reaching up to 40% if your Animus has 8 buffs on them.
While her heal may be lower than some others, her S3 also reduces allies’ skill cooldown, extends buffs by 1 turn and even shortens allies’ debuffs by 1 turn. The heal is also based off of her max HP, making her heals extremely potent on lower HP Animus. This can vary on a case-by-case basis, but this aspect of her kit is more often to her team’s advantage. Her skill 2 can lower enemies’ turn meter by up to 30% while dispelling up to 2 of each enemies’ buffs, being very annoying in a PVP setting. When allies have 8 buffs in total, her [Rainbow Blessing] buff goes all the way to 40% DMG Reduction, which further improves her tankyness while doing decent heals through her ultimate. While she does have sustain, it can be argued a lot of her value comes from her other utility.
Mia works best with units who want to spam their skills, like Heinrich. In teams with many buffers like Freya, Rosa, Tsukiyo Mi or Lily, she can prove herself useful to extend the buff duration. However, her kit becomes rather useless when the enemies have debuff immunity, or if [Block] is applied by Heinrich.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Has a lot of utility packed into her kit,
Massive damage reduction buff that affects the whole party (requires buffs),
Heals based on her own Max HP, making her a great partner for teams with 'squishier' characters, as she can top them up easily with one heal.
Cons
Heals are a bit lacking so if a fight has the enemy doing a lot of damage, she may have trouble with keeping the team alive.

Early Game Builds
For Early Game build tips when it comes to what modules and Shells to use before you start farming Red rarity, check our dedicated guide:
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
For every 3 actions accumulated by enemy units, increases the owner's Turn Meter by 35%, and can be triggered up to 1 times per turn.
Grants the wearer a 35% gauge boost for every 3 enemy actions that occur, once per turn. A solid choice for Supports in content that sees multiple enemies acting per one turn of the wearer. Loses value against singular enemies or enemies that move slowly or not at all (due to control effects).
Allows Mia more easily keep pace with absurdly fast PVE enemies while also having strong utility in PVP to cut in on enemy Turn Orders. Unfortunately cannot run a 6P Speed Inferno set. Run 12-PC Swiftrush and either of the other sets as 12-PC too.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Swiftrush [12/12]
![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Timeweave [8/12]
![Matrix]()
>Bloodbath [8/12]![Matrix]()
>Wellspring [8/12]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: None - the optimal set combo requires you to use a 8-pc set not present on the shell, so you have no place for a 6 PC Inferno set.
2
Before the main body acts, it increases its [DEF] by 700 for 2 turns, and applies a [Shield] equal to 400% of its own [DEF] to the main body Animus, and the Animus ally with the lowest current HP percentage for 2 turns.
Cannot stack with similar effects applied by other Shells.
Grants the wearer 700 DEF for 2 turns, as well as applying a sizable shield to an ally for 2 turns. It has a 1-turn initial cooldown, but after that, it will maintain the 700 DEF buff 66% of the time and keep the shield active often. Primarily used on dedicated DEF scalers.
Grants your Mia with an exceptional personal defense while also granting another team mate a huge 2 turn Shield improving your teams survivability dramatically. However, using this Shell will come at the cost of being able to use a 6P Speed Inferno set. Run 12-PC Swiftrush and either of the other sets as 12-PC too.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Swiftrush [12/12]
![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Timeweave [8/12]
![Matrix]()
>Bloodbath [8/12]![Matrix]()
>Unbreakable [8/12]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: None - the optimal set combo requires you to use a 8-pc set not present on the shell, so you have no place for a 6 PC Inferno set.
3
Before the owner acts, unleashes the owner Animus' full potential making their next skill cost no CD and increasing their SPD by an additional 10% for 2 turn(s).
The cooldown of the skill can't be reduced.
An absurdly strong combo Shell that allows the wearer to skip the cooldown of the ability used on the turn this Shell is active. The wearer can use their ultimate or skill twice back to back, unlocking usually impossible personal and team combos. Also grants the wearer a 10% SPD boost after use for 2 turns. Mainly used in PvE burst/combo compositions or PVP. Can be used on both Supports and DPS situationally.
Mia's S3 has incredible combo potential especially when used back to back thanks to its buff extension and Cooldown Reduction effects. Using Codex of Magic on Mia can allow you to extend applied buffs at the start of a fight allowing them to last a significant portion of the encounter, providing it doesn't last too long. An excellent choice for shorter fights and in teams where multiple high impact buffs are available for Mia to extend.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Swiftrush [12/12]
![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Strive [8/8]
![Matrix]()
>Bulwark [8/8]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: >Swiftsmite [6/6]
![Matrix]()
>Swiftraid [6/6]![Matrix]()
4
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 any healer that allows them 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]()
- 8 set: >Swiftrush [8/12]
![Matrix]()
- 6 set: >Swiftsmite [6/6]
![Matrix]()
>Evolguard [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
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.
2
Triggers when the main body takes DMG greater than 25% of Max HP within a turn, healing the main body for 25% Max HP and increasing Turn Meter progress by 25%.
A strong personal sustain option for characters, granting them a 25% max HP restore and 25% gauge boost upon taking hits within a single turn greater than 25% of their max HP (on a 2-turn cooldown). Has situational use in PVE but shines the most in PVP, granting your teams extra healing and gauge boost on a semi-frequent cooldown.
3
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.
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
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.
2
Incredibly powerful on Mia allowing her to use her S3 more often for Cooldown Reduction, buff extention and a solid AoE heal far more frequently.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.
8 Piece sets:
1
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.
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. If you're not running 12P Swiftrush you can pick up the 8P bonus here.
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.
1
4/12: DEF +10%
8/12: DEF +25%
12/12: DEF +45%
2
4/12: HP +10%
8/12: HP +25%
12/12: HP +45%
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.
4
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.
5
6/6: Healing Effect +12% & Effect RES +20%
A no-speed sustain-enhancing choice for your Inferno 6P set. It may need to be used to work around shell restrictions, or if SPD isn’t a priority, and you would instead prefer more defense and healing output.
Best Stats
Substats:
SPD (Until Desired) > HP% > DEF% > HP = DEF
Stat comments
Mia has two main stats and two bonus stat to pay attention to across gear:
- SPD: SPD is the most important stat for all supportive characters. Moving first and cycling faster is one of the key difference makers in being able to beat the hardest PVE content in the game and dominate PVP.
- HP%: Mia's next best stat after SPD is HP%. The reason for this is that Mia's S3 healing and S1 shielding scales off her own HP, so increasing it improves their output. With that said, Mia is often not brought as a solo sustain character making scaling her healing and shielding less mandatory than on other sustain characters.
- DEF%: As a lesser priority DEF isn't a bad choice and will improve Mia's survivability while also synergising with some of her Shell options but wont improve her healing/shielding output.
- Effect RES: Allows you to have a higher chance at resisting incoming debuffs allowing you to get lucky. A useful stat but not one to specifically chase.
Shell Passives
Slot 1
HP% > DEF% > HP > DEF
Slot 2
SPD
Slot 3
DMG (Synergy) > DMG Taken (Defensive Stance) > DMG Taken
Passive comments
- Slot 1: Choose one of HP or DEF that suits the style of play and build you're aiming for.
- Slot 2: Speed is king in this slot for any healer.
- Slot 3: Synergy is great on any healer as it allows them to boost the damage their party members will deal by simply healing them. If you don't need that, you can focus instead of improving the survivability by getting the DMG Taken talents.
Skill Priority
Skill Priority
Lv5 S1 = Lv5 S3 > Lv5 S2
Comments
Both Mia's S1 and S3 are immensely valuable to level up. S1 improves Mia's damage reduction potential while maxing out S3 will reduce its cooldown. Aim for the one that is specifically more beneficial for the role you are currently using Mia in.
