Resonance SolsticeLissandraBuild and Guide

Lissandra is a DPS that has great focus on generating [Shadowcraft] and applying control to enemies. She bolsters consistent sustain thanks to her resonance and frequent use of shockwave. As a crew member, she can apply Unbreakable Shield, which blocks any damage, however it is often unused because her yellow card is mostly used for cost generation.

Playstyle and Key Mechanics

Lissandra’s playstyle mostly involves AOE Control application, [Shadowcraft] generation, Cost generation and applying Unbreakable shield. Let’s check her skills:  

Main Cards:

• For her first card, we have [Quest], a 0-cost purple card that generates derivatives [Infinity] and [Avarice], both of which are powerful cards that can generate [Shadowcraft].

• Next card is [Pathfind], a 3-cost yellow card that draws a card and has two different effects depending on which card is drawn; if a Red or Purple card is drawn, she generates 6 cost, otherwise she will grant [Unbreakable Shield] to all allies and generate [Shadowcraft].

• Then we have her ultimate [Starfall] capable of inflicting [Stun], [Break] and [Corrupt] over 7 hits, additionally she releases a [Shockwave], an AOE attack. The number of [Shockwave] is dependent on how many cards are in hand.

Derivatives:

• [Infinity] - Smash the enemy with [Fomalhaut], dealing DMG to the target once and inflicting [Stun]. Generate 1 [Shadowcraft] in your hand. When this card is discarded due to another card's effect, generate 1 [Shadowcraft] in your hand.

• [Avarice] - Charge up and swing [Fomalhaut], dealing DMG to enemies within range once and inflicting [Corrupt]. Discard a random card, prioritizing [Infinity], and generate 1 [Shadowcraft] in your hand. Afterward, release [Shockwave] equal to the Cost of the discarded card. Each [Shockwave] deals DMG to all enemies once.

Investment

Lissandra’s awakenings can be skipped; the majority of her awakening involves buffing allies, making her a great Sub-DPS.  

• Awakening 1 - All allies deal more Final DMG towards enemies below 50% HP

• Awakening 2 - Using [Shadowcraft] increases the DMG of the next [Leader Skill] by 50%.

• Awakening 4 - Using [Pathfind] increases ATK or DEF, according to the current number of cards and cost.

• Awakening 5 - Increases her [Shockwave] DMG.

Resonance

• Resonance 1 — Heals Lissandra for 13% of her DMG dealt. basically her main sustain tool and thanks to [Shockwave], she constantly heals with this.

• Resonance 2 — Whenever her skill card is used, she gains [Hyperarmor] for 2 seconds and releases [Shockwave].

• Resonance 4 — Increases her ATK per second with a cap of 100%, quite effective to reach the hard cap, which is 216% ATK.

• Resonance 5 —  The next [Shadowcraft] cost gets reduced to 0 after using [Avarice] or [Infinity].

Synergies

❗ ❗ ❗ The Synergies mentioned here are merely samples. Taking their core mechanics as an example, you can use many other characters as replacements or other synergies. ❗ ❗ ❗ 

• Stella - Cost reduction and plenty of cards/derivatives to help stabilize the deck.

• Joshua - Lissandra works as a great sub-dps with her utility and  [Shadowcraft] generation.

• Shire - Lissandra’s debuff greatly synergizes with Shire, making her spam [Leader Skill] consistently.
