Resonance SolsticePaladiBuild and Guide

Paladi is a defense crew member who offers a variety of damage mitigation by making a wall that scales off her HP. She summons [Mech Units] to further assist her; with these [Mech Units], she is also capable of dealing with various status effects and debuffs. She is quite versatile and can easily be added to most teams.

Playstyle and Key Mechanics

Paladi is a very simple defense crew member, but unlike any other defense crew members, she can summon [Mech Units] that will help her in dealing damage. She mainly uses blue cards, with her Ultimate being a red card.

• For her first card, we have [Iron Curtain], it is a blue card that makes A-1SO to generate a wall to protect allies against incoming damage. It is her defensive tool that scales based on her Max HP and she restores its durability by doing Basic Attacks.

• Next is [Firewall], a blue card that triggers [Wildfire] on the field and reduces enemies' energy by 3% not only that, but it can also reduce their ATK by 2%.

• Lastly, her Ultimate [Riot Supression], she orders her [Mech Units] to unleash devastating attacks, these attacks can [Stun] and [Electrify] the enemy for a duration.

Investment

At Awakening 0 Paladi might feel a little bit sluggish without proper gearing, and her damage output perhaps quite on the lower side given that she is a defense crew member; however, perhaps her Awakenings can solve that issue, so let's take a look: 

• Awakening 1 - Enables her to draw cards whenever she or the [Iron Curtain] gets attacked, not only that, but this also scales her ATK up to a maximum of 30% when blue cards are used.

• Awakening 2 - This awakening provides extra attacks for A-2SO during basic attack and [Riot Suppression].

• Awakening 4 - Increases all Allied [Mech Unit] according to the number of [Mech Unit] present on the field.

• Awakening 5 - All enemies affected by [Wildfire] have more Final DMG taken, which goes up to 50% total.

Resonance

• Resonance 1 — Provides [Hyperarmor] for front allies, keeping them active when using skills.

• Resonance 2 — Improves [Firewall] by making it also reduce the defense of all enemies.

• Resonance 4 — Whenever [Iron Curtain] is broken, it triggers [Firewall] and increases all allies' DEF by 3%.

• Resonance 5 — Whenever [Riot Suppression] is used, increases the number of A-2SO deployed on the field. This can go up to 4 A-2SO.

Synergies

• Tennie - Her best in slot as Paladi can easily trigger her Resonance 4 to generate shields, given that her cards are mostly Blue.

• Stella - A good universal support, when Paladi is used as a Leader, she can easily help her reduce the cooldown of her Leader Skill.

• Ilona - Has a good coverage of card draw with her red card, and at Awakening 2, enables her blue card to draw cards. She also has a [Mech Unit], making it effective for an Awakening 4 Paladi.
