We have reworked our tier list owing to multiple meta shifts and how we rate characters. As such some of the reviews (especially of older characters) might not match the tier list ratings. Please prioritize the ratings given over provided Review. We will be working on updating all reviews, but it is a time-consuming endeavor.
Our newest undead healer, Joanne is a powerful support that is a jack of many trades and master of a few ones.
Her Main skill will target an enemy and remove 2 buffs from the targets next to it, while also decreasing their physical and magic resistance by 15% for 12 seconds. This is right off the bat a very significant on demand defense shred. It also inflicts Poison on the target, dealing damage based on Joanne's ATK.
Her subskill 1 provides healing to the target with the lowest HP% and giving them the 'Self-Healing Cycle' effect, restoring HP also to the targets close to it in a 45 degree arc and also removing 2 debuffs from the target. Her second subskill provides another source of Poison on the enemy - at 3 stacks, it will also inflict Poison vulnerability on the enemy, increasing the poison damage by 50% for 16 seconds. Her second subskill will replace Joanne's normal attacks with 'Battle Triage Plan', healing the ally with the lowest hp based on Joanne's atk. If the ally has the 'Self-Healing Cycle' effect, she will trigger it immediately at a 1.5 effectiveness.
Last - but not least - her Ultimate inflicts 3 stacks of the 'Weakness Exposed' debuff, decreasing the target's Physical/Magic resistance by 1.2% per stack. These stacks are permanent, so using her ultimate once at the start of a boss fight will allow you to deal more damage overall. You can increase the stacks by damaging the enemy with Joanne's Main skill, sub skills and subsequent ultimate casts. Despite this, it stacks up pretty slowly, making her even more reliant on speed. As an added bonus, her ultimate also decreases the target's Mana by 400 every 2 seconds, which is also a permanent debuff once cast!
Joanne's artifact is pretty powerful, granting her much-needed Speed and adding a shield effect to 'Self-Healing Cycle' for 10 seconds based on Joanne's ATK. The more invested her artifact, the faster her debuff will stack up which of course means higher potential damage. If you're planning on pulling for Joanne, getting her artifact raised will certainly be important, especially for raids.
Joanne is a powerful support that can significantly raise the DPS potential of your team, but she has a few issues that are worth keeping in mind;
Her healing capacity is dependant on Joanne using her subskills and auto attacks, meaning you don't have an easy way to heal your units on demand for emergency healing. Further, the fact the Self-Healing cycle heals in a smallish AoE centered on a specific target adds a lot of RNG depending on the target and their position.
Joanne is a great addition to undead teams in raids since she can fit well in teams centered around either twins or Violette. The only thing that makes it a bit hard to pull for Joanne at this point in time is the announcement of Chaos Catherine, who will be joining the roster very soon.
Considering the new chaos souls will be limited to their debut/rate up banner and then will be only available with Alchemy, you should ask yourself if you will have enough resources for Catherine before deciding to pull for Joanne.
Pros
Great utility
Powerful debuffs for raids
Cons
No on-demand healing
Very reliant on speed to cycle through subskills
