Character Summary

Ksenia is a support character who specializes in buffing allies and providing healing. Her key abilities include applying Heat Recovery to heal allies and Blazing Assault II to boost their damage output. Additionally, she can deal burn damage and inflict Overburn, making her a valuable asset in Burn teams.

Fixed Keys

Fixed Keys core to Ksenia’s function are:

  • 06-03 - Discount Guide: Additional Confectance Points allow her Ultimate to perfectly fuel 3 turns (ultimate downtime) of Favorable Cycle/Comprehensive Rescue usage.

  • 04-03 - Mutual Benefit: Buffing self with Heat Recovery and Blazing Assault when healing with Comprehensive Rescue, allows Ksenia to not worry much about keeping herself alive while also improving her damage.

Mod Key

Ksenia's niche lies in her role as an Amplifier rather than a Sustain unit, which means she doesn’t benefit much from passive global Stability healing. Due to her primary focus on enhancing team damage, she is rarely used in content that requires a strong Amplifier who also provides Stability healing, so while the additional benefits the Mod Key provides are nice to have, they don't really change Ksenia much.

As of writing, Ksenia's Mod Key has not yet been introduced to the Global server. Global is expected to receive it at a later, yet undisclosed date.

Character Function

Ksenia is an amplifier/buffer who excels at maintaining Blazing Assault (15% attack buff) for the entire team. By triggering her support attack, allies can receive the Blazing Assault buff, which lasts for 2 turns. She also has decent stability damage capabilities and can apply a Stability Shred debuff by using her skill, Favorable Cycle, to apply Flammable. Additionally, her healing is sufficient for most damage-focused stages.

Character Synergies

Since Ksenia can apply the Overburn debuff with her V1 upgrade, she can be paired with characters that require it present on enemies to elevate their kits. Sharkry is one example of that as she requires Overburn for her Wise Support to trigger and unless you have Qiongjiu at V3, Ksenia will be your best way to enable the interaction. Vector is another character that wants a Burn-related debuff to activate part of her kit (her S1 in that case), and Ksenia can help with that.

Vertebrae Breakpoints
  • V1: As mentioned in the synergies section, Ksenia helps create synergies with characters that trigger effects when Overburn is applied.

  • V4: She can now more easily provide Blazing Assault II buffs to teammates through her assists, enabling her to maintain the Blazing Assault effect on up to 4 teammates instead of just 2.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • Provides decent buffs that are pretty universal and work with many characters,

  • Her debuff is perfect for Burn characters, making her a core member of the Burn team,

  • Can heal both HP and Stability.

Cons

  • Her healing output is worse than other Healers as she focuses more on the offensive aspects,

  • And it's not only numbers for healing that are worse - she also lacks AoE healing, so if your whole team gets into trouble, Ksenia will struggle to keep everyone alive.
