Review
Hissabeth’s kit revolves around her eight snakes. These snakes can manifest as stacks of [Snake’s Den] on Hissabeth, stacks of [Serpentine Scales] on the enemy, or [Hiss!] incantations in the Spelldock—no matter what, there will always be eight in total.
When the battle begins, all 8 of her snakes start as [Snake’s Den] stacks.
At the start of the round, 1 [Snake’s Den] automatically converts into a rank 1 [Hiss!] incantation.
Her buff incantation [Infinite Recursion] converts 2 [Snake’s Den] into two rank 1 [Hiss!] incantations that are added to the Spelldock at the end of the player’s turn.
Each rank 1 [Hiss!] incantation inflicts 1 stack of [Serpentine Scales].
When [Serpentine Scales] deals damage to the enemy at the end of the round, each stack converts back into 1 [Snake’s Den].
[Serpentine Scales] is a damage-over-time debuff. Notably, its Genesis Damage scales off of Ultimate Might and can crit. It’s a Special status—not a Negative Status—and cannot be dispelled. [Hiss!] is a Versatile incantation that doesn’t count against the incantation draw limit (hand size), is considered an Ultimate, and doesn’t cost any AP to cast. [Snake’s Den] doesn’t have any additional effects while on Hissabeth, so you’re incentivized to keep them in circulation as [Serpentine Scales] stacks and [Hiss!] incantations as much as possible.
Hissabeth’s attack incantation is a mass attack that deals more damage against enemies affected by [Serpentine Scales]. As mentioned above, her buff converts [Snake’s Den] into [Hiss!] incantations. Her Ultimate [Experimental Rocketry] doesn’t count against the incantation draw limit, makes [Serpentine Scales] deal more damage this turn, and converts all [Serpentine Scales] into [Hiss!] at the end of the round.
All of Hissabeth’s control capabilities lie in her Insight III effect, which inflicts [Rigidity] and grants 1 Moxie when Hissabeth attacks an enemy under the effects of [Serpentine Scales].
Portrays
Hissabeth’s early portraits provide the most value, but as always, they aren’t necessary. P1 decreases her setup time considerably by converting [Snake’s Den] to [Hiss!] twice at the start of the turn. P2 allows Hissabeth to apply 2 [Rigidity] per turn for easy [Petrify].
Pros
AP-positive. Does not require much after initial setup.
Extremely flexible. Fits into debuff teams, Petrify teams, Ultimate teams, and traditional hypercarry teams with no fuss.
Can be run as a main DPS or a sub-DPS in double carry teams.
Brainlessly easy gameplay. Does not require a strict rotation.
Consistent CC effects.
Deals a lot of Genesis DMG through [Serpentine Scales], which is great against enemies with high DMG Reduction.
Cons
Doesn’t offer much support to the Ultimate team.
Takes 4–5 turns to set up.
There are a lot of Control Immune enemies.
Unfortunately just not as insane as some of the other units we’ve been getting.
Stats and Build

Comments
Never-ending Q&A is Hissabeth's signature psychube and it's her best option by a long shot. Her [Hiss!] incantations can stack up that 12–24% Ultimate Might, while her normal ultimate can stack up 18–36% Critical Rate. The 10% ATK substat is also great because it increases her [Serpentine Scales] damage.
Hissabeth can stack up Luxurious Leisure absurdly quickly with her [Hiss!] incantations. 15–27% DMG Bonus with an 18% Ultimate Might substat is quite good if you aren't willing to build her admittedly very niche psychube.
Rehearsal of Dreams requires a little bit of help from other teammates to get its full effect. The [Rigidity] from her Insight III passive allows her to stack up the 12–24% Ultimate Might every turn (albeit somewhat slowly). The 18% Ultimate Might substat is obviously excellent for a character who spams a ton of ultimates. For the DMG Bonus, Hissabeth has [Petrify] and [Rigidity] but she needs teammates who can apply the remaining 2 to get the full 12–24% DMG Bonus (Serpentine Scales doesn't count because it's a [Special] effect).
Another Story is a pretty decent backup option. 18% Ultimate Might is great, and the frequent high-rank [Hiss!] casts mean that Hissabeth can stack up that 8–24% DMG Bonus quite easily. Sadly, she doesn't have Eureka, so she can't get the Incantation Might.
Because of how often Hissabeth casts ultimates, she can abuse Brave New World's passive for near-permanent uptime on its 20–40% Incantation Might. The 18% Ultimate Might is also great.

Characters
About the team
Ezio on WH-CC or WH-BK. This team is focused on making sure Ezio has as many [Eagle's Guidance] stacks as possible and dealing as much damage as possible. Melania is here for [Fixed Plan] stacking as its permanent and avoids the annoyance of having to time it for 100% Synch. Hissabeth is mostly here to generate Synch, being able to cast 3 Ultimates a turn while relatively AP free will allow Ezio to take his time gathering Synch himself an dealing damage. Medicine Pocket(E1) is the only thing you have to time here, being mostly AP free to let others cast while having a nice set of Crit debuffs for 2 rounds. Hiss is the flexer here, being able to swap between Recoleta or Getian(E1).

About the team
A mono-Afflatus Plant team. With Marcus(E1) now finally giving her some Crit stats on top of proactively gaining Eureka, extra DMG and [Continuous Action I]; Vila(E1) making her a proper healer that can focus on supporting the team and supporting all of this with Druvis(E2) giving her access to extra Crit debuffs and various offensive buffs through [Circle of Life]. The last unit is quite flexible here, Hissabeth is nice for being AP+ and letting Marcus cast all she wants while other options such as Mercuria, Lopera and Argus still remain.

About the team
A Petrify team surrounding Jessica(E). Honestly, [Moss On Stone] is a dogwater way of inflicting [Petrify] but the bonus Incan Might and guaranteed Crits on enemies with [Petrify] is very decent. This is largely supported by Hissabeth bringing a consistent way of triggering BoN for Jessica alongside [Petrify] (and more dmg dan Jessica) while using only 1 AP and Druvis(E) grants large ATK, DMG and Pen bonsues with [Circle of Life]. This is then kept safe by Ezra Theodore(E, either one) by expediting his [Mushroom]s and improving his team sustain.
