Tier Position

Analysis

The accessible, low-barrier alternative to Sakiri. Simple switch-in, buff, switch-out loop easy to execute at all skill levels.

Recommended Build

Role: Support / Healer

Haniel is the universal healer of 1.0 and slots into virtually every team composition. It's Friendship! converts Nova detonation into a persistent team ATK buff by draining the boss's ATK stat — the strongest passive steroid available on a healer. Speedy Hedgehog maximizes Charge Efficiency for rapid cycling. Her off-field healing model means she never competes for field time; she is the safest and most versatile support pick across all elemental archetypes.

Haniel

Support / Healer

Silent Moonlit Forest Guardian provides consistent off-field healing. It's Friendship! drains ATK from Nova targets and gives all allies ATK proportional to Haniel's base ATK — a passive team-wide ATK steroid.

About

Hethereau’s goddess of headsets… Hehe, just call me whenever you need me!"
