Summary
Amy Firstwing (Amy) is a PVP-oriented backline damage dealer. Her most notable feature is a long range Enters The Battlefield (ETB) pull combined with skill seal effect, that can drag snipers, rangers and supporters into vulnerable melee-range positions. Additionally, her Special and Ultimate Skills apply strong max HP% damage over time debuffs, execute low hp enemies and skill seal.
Amy’s Alternium Reactor addresses her middling personal damage output by granting near-permanent self-buffs: 40% ATK, 40% CRIT DMG, 25% ASPD, and Hitstun Immunity (Special Tier). This increases Amy’s damage output to acceptable levels and provides limited protection against backline disruption.
PVE Review
Amy’s utility in PVE is severely limited, as her max HP% damage effects do not apply to boss-type enemies. While niche scenarios could theoretically leverage her kit, she currently lacks practical viability in any PVE content.
PVP Review
In PVP, Amy is a specialised anti-backline tech option that aims to swing the boardstate by pulling enemy backline threats to the forefront. While she deals serviceable damage after her ETB effect and applies high uptime skill seal to enemy frontline units, her short range necessitates heavy team support for survival.
However, her core mechanic faces multiple reliability challenges:
HIT and EVA interaction: Amy’s low HIT stat sets a low evasion threshold (957) for targets to resist her pull, easily met by most backline units.
Hitstun protection: Units with Special-tier (or higher) Hitstun Immunity (e.g., Lee Yuri) or mid-skill casting ignore her pull. Timing inconsistencies further reduce reliability.
Knockback immunity: Immovable units (e.g., Curian) negate her repositioning entirely.
Counter Units: Awakened Joo Shiyoon and Awakened Ray can directly counter her ETB pull.
Class lock: Strategies not reliant on Rangers, Snipers and Supporters (e.g. Replacer King) nullify this aspect of Amy’s kit.
While tools like Enterprise/Ahab ships or Moneka/Estella Priest Jung Dain operators can mitigate HIT deficiencies, this further strains overall team composition in order to enable a reactive effect.
Amy’s survivability hinges on her Special Skill providing a 30% max HP shield and repositioning effect. Both mechanics are exploitable: shields are vulnerable to barrier disruption (e.g. Awakened Karin Wong, Awakened Na Yubin), and her retreat can be reversed by deploying units behind her.
In summary, Amy contradictory demands both significant resource allocation to enable her disruptive potential, and the rest of the team performing well in situations where her kit is not relevant.
