Review
Berry is a Curse Assassin with a complex Damage Over Time (Lovesick).
In terms of how Lovesick works, see it as another form of her direct Curse damage that doesn't account for Berry’s Pierce Rate. Her HIGHLIGHT can trigger all DOT, but that is rarely used; its main purpose is to grant her 1 Chains of Love stack used to buff her stats. At 2 stacks, all of Berry’s skills will count as Continuous Damage, greatly boosting her damage. Also, it will make Lovesick deal Critical hits for 3 turns.
When Berry inflicts Lovesick with skills or refreshes its duration with her Skill 3, she will immediately take a snapshot of:
All the foe's debuffs.
All of her buffs besides Crit Rate and Crit Damage.
Then Lovesick will deal that damage for the next 4 turns or until Berry takes another snapshot; understanding this snapshot mechanic is key to maximizing her damage output, since this works as a soft debuff and buff extension.
For a debuff snapshot example, one of the strongest things to do is to snapshot the 1-turn debuff from Oracle Skill 3; the debuff will act as if it’s still active when Berry uses her HIGHLIGHT to activate Lovesick damage the following turns until her next snapshot. Certain debuffs will not work for Lovesick; for example, things like the Attack buff from Janosik Mark and Awareness 1 Tempest Wind Skill 1. These “when attacked/when taking damage” style of debuffs will not work since Lovesick is not attacking.
As for buff snapshot, be careful, as Berry can lose Lovesick damage if her Critical buffs expire, but this means you can backbuff Lovesick damage if you let her take a snapshot, then use a Critical buff on her the following turn.
Berry has many built-in Continuous Damage stats; it's worth noting that Continuous Damage is an independent multiplier and not basic damage, meaning she is playing up a multiplier more than most DPS.
Her plan is to inflict the foe with 10 Lovesick stacks, then use her Skill 3 every turn to deal massive damage. She has surprisingly good AoE coverage, being able to chain her Skill 1 if it defeats a foe. While rare, her DOT is a debuff, so it won't last between boss phases.
Berry's biggest weakness is that she needs HIGHLIGHT generation to gain her Chains of Love stack and keep her Critical Lovesick effect active. Her Lovesick only counting Defense Down and ignoring Pierce Rate also makes capping Defense for it surprisingly hard for most players, locking a lot of her damage from players with access to more Awareness for more Defense Down effects.
Chord: Chord’s Skill 3 can activate Berry’s HIGHLIGHT for damage and the buffs it provides.
Beachflower Marian: Most of Berry’s damage is Continuous Damage. With Awareness 2, Beachflower Marian can even inflict a Defense Down debuff that benefits Berry greatly.
Awareness 1: Very valuable when playing DOT Berry as Lovesick only counts Defense Down, not Pierce Rate. Berry inflicting 1 bonus Lovesick stack can speed up her Skill rotation.
Awareness 6: This increases her Lovesick cap to 15, which is more damage and makes her Skill 3 hit harder. This also allows Berry to use all her Skills twice once per battle and even gives her a free HIGHLIGHT activation. You can now run Berry in any Single-Target fight, even with 0 mobs. A double Skill 1 and double Skill 2 is 3+3+5+5 = 15 Lovesick stacks.
Weapon: This weapon provides Critical Rate as its main stat, which is very strong; it also provides Critical Damage to her Skill 3.
Can use her strongest Skill every turn after setup.
Has access to an independent multiplier (Continuous Damage).
Strong Awareness growth.
Hard to master.
Slower to set up in fights without chain Skill 1 opportunities and in teams without HIGHLIGHT generation.
