Character Function and Summary
Tropical Closer is a Bless Sweeper who spends HP for bonus Bless damage on her skills.
She can use her strongest Skill on turn 1. This is significantly better for a Sweeper as removing enemies from the board quicker is a lot better in AoE fights.
The gameplan is to receive healing 5 times to gain Tropical Heart, which allows Tropical Closer to use Skill 3 without it going into a 1 turn cooldown, making you able to use it again the following turn.
Her teams don't run many debuffs, making her even better against mobs as you don't have to keep reapplying debuffs to new mobs.
While her Skills scales with Attack, she also wants HP, which gets converted into Attack up to 16000 HP.
With the new balance changes to the Global version, Tropical Closer’s main limitation of hardlocking a Healer or she can’t unlock her Skill 3 is no longer present. She still likes to receive healing and plays better with having a healer on the team, but it is no longer a need but a bonus, drastically increasing her teambuilding options and damage ceiling.
Character Synergies
Marian - Marian is a Healer that can also increase allies’ max HP, both are great for Tropical Closer.
Chord - Chord can provide healing from her Talent and give Tropical Closer more HIGHLIGHT.
Important Awareness / Weapon Values
Awareness 1: Besides providing both Crit Rate and Crit Damage for more damage, this also makes it way easier for her to gain Tropical Heart in a team with little healing, giving her even more teambuilding options.
Awareness 6: You can now use her strongest skill every turn.
Weapon: Provides increased Bless Damage, Crit Damage and Skill Damage. Pull if you want to increase your damage.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Deals quick and consistent damage, can even be used as a Single-Target DPS.
Her teams have great survivability as she has high HP and likes to run a healer.
Cons
At low Awareness she prefers running a healer in a team instead of 2 support to keep up with her skill HP cost and make gaining Tropical Heart easier. Could still get away with not running a healer but it will take more work.

Teams
Best Teams
Tropical Closer + Chord + Marian + Wind
Tropical Closer can get additional Skill 3 usage and more max HP with Marian on the team. As Tropical Closer’s HIGHLIGHT will heal herself, Chord giving Tropical Closer more HIGHLIGHT means she can also work towards gaining Tropical Heart. Because Wonder is mostly using buffs, Wind can provide Defense Down which the team lacks, she can also provide healing from her Skill 3.
Best Wonder Personas:
Koumokuten - Attack Up, Damage Up, must use as starter
Dionysus - Critical Rate, Critical Damage
Surt - Defense Down
Dominion - Attack Up, Damage Up
Wonder Dagger - Glimmer
Tropical Closer + Chord + Leon + Wind
This team uses a specific strategy to manipulate Chord's Talent 2 targeting. By having Leon use his Skill 2 to lower an ally's HP and then provide a delayed heal, this makes it very likely that Tropical Closer becomes the lowest HP ally, which makes Chord's Talent 2 always target her, accelerating Tropical Heart gain. While this setup can achieve additional use of Tropical Closer's Skill 3, similar to a team with Marian, this requires more precise execution.
