Selena's best build revolves around dealing damage via coordinated attacks that her other party members activates by using multiple attack cards and her following up with more damage. She can also restore the tenacity bar of the enemy which can re-enable effects from other characters such as Sereniel.

She is best suited with the 2/2/2 set consisting of Black Wing to provide her a 12% attack stat increase, Cursed Corpse for a 10% multiplicative damage buff against targets with Agony and Executioner's Tool to further increase the damage of her extra attacks when it critically strikes.

Her favored chaos zone is Swamp of Judgment to get her best equipment such as Dagger That Tricked The Shadow for a 12% critical damage buff. Fairy King's Crown to get a 6% critical chance for all of her attacks including her coordinated attacks and Verdant Shackles for a 12% attack and defense stat boost which will increase her damage.

Main DPS Support
Sereniel Sereniel Cassius Cassius

Selena's best team is Sereniel and Cassius. Selena will activate her buffs that lets her follow up damage with her coordinated attacks after Sereniel uses her high amounts of attack cards while Cassius will provide the Morale buffs that can increase the damage of both DPS characters while he also gives healing and card draw for consistency each turn.

Character Explanation
Narja Narja Can replace Cassius as a Support. She can also provide damage buffs through Voracity but it only applies to attack cards which does not include Selena's extra attacks. She also cannot draw naturally but can heal more than Cassius.
Luke Luke Can replace Sereniel as a Main DPS. He can also create numerous amounts of attack cards but at a lesser degree than Sereniel. Also worth noting that if you pick him, Selena's tenacity bar restoration will be rendered useless.
Nia Nia Can replace Cassius as a Support. She can discard and draw cards to avoid clogging your hand. However she cannot provide damage buffs the same as Cassius.
Tressa Tressa Can replace Sereniel as a Main DPS. Tressa can generate a lot of attack cards that Selena can utilize but she runs at the same problem as Luke where Selena's tenacity bar restoration will be useless for her.

Her High-Power Scope and Drone Bombing must have the epiphany that lets her initiate a coordinated attack when another character uses an attack card and another one if it hits a weakness so she can deal a lot of follow-up damage when Sereniel attacks. Next, is Tactical Maneuver with the tenacity refresh epiphany to re-enable Sereniel's lasers again.

As for Target Spotted and Sniper's Domain, it is best removed as she does not use any Mark in this build. You can replace it with any Ranger exclusive neutral cards that can draw or provide buffs to the party.

When Quest Card is used, Heal 100%,100 Fixed Damage to a random enemy

Sereniel wants her most optimal build of multiple copies of Homing Laser with the epiphany that moves it to your hand at the start of the turn and on ravage so that she can consistently get her attack cards every turn.

The next core card is Plasma Missile with the epiphany that inflicts instinct weakness and a 60% additive damage buff to all her laser cards. Lastly, is Shining Core and she must have the epiphany that creates 2 Homing Lasers after ravage so she can loop her engine without running the risk of clogging your deck.

As for Cassius, he needs his Pop Eyed Popper that has the epiphany that lets him choose any quest cards for consistency. Devil Dice must be the base epiphany but with a generic epiphany that gives the party 2 Morale for 1 turn when used and the Dice Trick epiphany can be the upgrade card that heals the party after question completion.

Coordinated Attack Homing Laser Combo

Selena's best combo revolves around playing both High-Power Scope and Drone Bombing to get a buff that will initiate a coordinated attack after another ally of her uses an attack card. When paired with Sereniel, the damage Selena deals can accumulate to a high number. Here are the steps to do this combo:

  1. Use all the upgrade cards you can play from Sereniel, Selena and Cassius
  2. Draw until you have High-Power Scope, Drone Bombing, Plasma Missile, Tactical Maneuver and at least 5 lasers in hand
  3. Play High-Power Scope and Drone Bombing first then use Plasma Missile to inflict instinct weakness.
  4. Make sure to free a lot of space in your hand, especially Cassius generated quest cards, before you start using Homing Lasers
  5. Activate Tactical Maneuver once the enemy is ravaged then use all the moved Homing Lasers again
  6. Continue until you run out of Tactical Maneuver to use

Copies of Her Cards Only Increases Turn Duration

All the cards stated in this build will only extend the turn duration of its buffs and not increase its effect if you have multiple copies played in the same turn.

Coordinated Attack Scales with Extra Damage

Selena Extra Damage

Even if the tooltip does not explicitly states extra damage, Coordinated Attack scales on both the attack and extra damage stat of Selena.

This guide needs to be updated, I don't even trust this build because it mentions stats and mechanics from a different character... OP is talking about sereniel stats and not Selena stats for the last potential it's not Crit Chance nor is it 60% it's 30% Extra Damage. Additionally, Selena doesn't use Homing Missles once again that's Sereniel.

Some parts of the guide are from sereniel, like where it says she needs 60% crit chance because her last potential, that´s from sereniel´s kit
