Orlea
|
Maribell
|
Beryl
|
|
|
||
Orlea is the Jack of all trades in this game capable of doing everything from healing, shielding, buffing, debuffing and dealing damage to enemies. Beryl synergizes with Orlea well because of the Retain effects both has and she can deal the most damage in the team with the help of Orlea's buffs and debuffs.

Maribell
|
Beryl
|
The best team for Orlea is Maribell and Beryl due to their synergy between Retain effects to deal massive damage in a single turn. Orlea works best as an all-around sub-DPS/Support Buffer as she has access to various damage buffs and healing through the use of Retain effects.
Beryl is the main DPS for the team and works in tandem with Orlea's Retain effects to further boost the damage of both their Attack cards. On the other hand, Maribell helps cover the team's lack of Shields to help them survive tough hits while Toughie passively heals the team.
| Character | Explanation |
|---|---|
Rin
|
Can replace Beryl as the Main DPS. Rin works well with characters that have a ton of Skill Cards as her Ultimate card damage scales through that amount. |
Tressa
|
Can replace Beryl as the Main DPS. You can utilize her Shadow Daggers to consistently apply Agony at a low cost while also giving Orlea space to deal damage as well. |
Khalipe
|
Can replace Maribell as the Support. Khalipe is an excellent 5-star Shield buffer for most team compositions due to her high AoE damage output and shields. |

For Orlea's cards, you want to retain as many creation cards as possible to increase their damage and focus on creating Softie cards to maximize the damage output of Beryl's attacks. Additionally, Will of Light is essential here as well, so you can both heal and activate all your Softie cards to further boost the damage of Beryl's Attack cards.

Beryl is our main damage dealer, so make sure you have Charged Shot and Unliimited Power that focuses on Damage epiphanies to maximize her damage output whenever you trigger Retain. Maribell will mostly focus on providing Shields so use Oh... I see and Maribell Shelter MK.II often to gain Counterattack and more Shields respectively.

| Partner | Details |
|---|---|
Noel
|
Passive Effect: Legato of Faith - +15% the assigned combatant's Retained cards Damage, Shield, and HP. At the end of the turn, deal Fixed Damage to all enemies equal to 15% for each retained card of the assigned combatant. +5% Damage for enemies with the Instinct attribute. Ego Skill: Hymn of Blessing - Heal 100% Activate the Retain effect of all cards held by the assigned combatant. |
Noel is the perfect Partner for Orlea because her Ego Skill activates the retain effect on all cards in hand. If activated when Creation cards are present, it upgrades the creations to deal more damage and gain heals at the same time.
| Partner | Explanation |
|---|---|
Arwen
|
A defensive 4-star Partner replacement that provides Damage Reduction whenever an enemy plans to attack your team. |
Yvonne
|
Balanced 3-star alternative that focuses on healing the team and gaining the Fortitude buff. |

Instinctual Growth Set Instinctual Growth Set When there are 4 or more cards in hand, increase Damage Amount of Instinct Cards by 20% |
Black Wing Set Black Wing Set +12% Attack |
Instinctual Growth set fits the build as it relies on having at least 4 cards in your hand, which Orlea can easily pull off, adding a 15% damage boost to all instinct cards. The Black Wing set adds a flat 12% damage increase without conditions that can help maximize the damage output of her Creation cards.

The Dream of the Devoured and The Famished One's Belly increase the damage of your follow-up Creation cards when you Exhaust them, while the Regenerative Ribcage is simply there to increase the team's maximum health.

In order to make full use of Orlea's kit, we want to have all three Creation cards in your hand as early as possible to start triggering their Retain effects. You will want Softie for damage buffs to Beryl, Toughie to help sustain HP for the team, and Swiftie to be used last for dealing high single-target damage once you have triggered its Retain effect multiple times.
Do note that her Creation card Retain effects does not have a cap limit, so Orlea specializes in long fights that tend to last multiple turns.

Have to COMPLETLY disagree on Orlea being B tier. She is very easily SSS. She can solo any difficulty of any boss completely solo. Challenge, Codex, or Chaos. You don't need any gear or cards. I suggest her, Mika, and Haru. Mika only needs one epiphany (-5 stress) and you can get two 3* toughie for 100% x2 heals per turn and just hold out as long as you want to have as many swifties in hand with 4000%+ damage. The -5 stress prevents he from status and she can solo any content. 0 gear required
