Skia's first positive impression of the Bureau occurred when he was updating his resume. He decided to give the job at the Bureau a try when he was invited to apply, but the formality of a resume was...

Tier Position

T2

Analysis

Lakshana-based burst attacker. High accessibility for early-game, but suffers from a complete lack of strong Lakshana-cycle supports.

Pros

2
High accessibility for early-game progression
Stealth tech enables Baicang synergy — switching to Baicang while stealthed generates a Power Word

Cons

2
Complete lack of strong Lakshana-cycle supports severely limits ceiling
Burst numbers objectively inferior to Nanally

Recommended Build

Role: Main DPS

Replacing Sakiri with Nanally completes the Lakshana+Cosmos+Anima top-trio around Skia, enabling Remora (Skia+Zero), Blossom (Zero+Nanally), and the Charge triple-cycle simultaneously. Skia's Suppression passive chains free Remora procs as Fang Thrust locks on, compounding with Zero's rotation resets during Stealth segments. Nanally's off-field Pistils deal persistent damage while Skia repositions. Street Boxer's Lakshana DMG bonus amplifies wolf-summon burst damage.

Recommended Team

Main DPS

Stealth-based on-field DPS; Suppression chains free Remora procs when Fang Thrust locks onto a Remora-marked target, keeping Remora uptime near-permanent through the Charge triple-cycle.

Quick Swap / Battery

Cosmos anchor (Remora with Skia, Blossom with Nanally); Insta-Cycle resets rotation stalls during Skia's Stealth windows. Appraiser doubles Blossom flowers in Charge triple-cycle.

Sub DPS

Anima representative completing the Lakshana+Cosmos+Anima Charge triple-cycle. More Than Passionate fires 10 Vita Pistils as persistent off-field damage while Skia occupies field time in Stealth.

Support / Healer

Off-field healer providing survivability without disrupting the top-trio rotation. It's Friendship! offers a passive ATK buff when Nova fires on adjacent elements.
