Note: Amir's performance will significantly improve if her cards has 1 AP or Reduce cost by 1 Divine Epiphany

Amir's best build focuses on stacking Full Metal Hurricane and activating metallization to deal more single-target multi-hit attacks after gaining each instance of shield. This build focuses on doing multi-hit metalize on a single enemy that can reach up to 50k damage and above depending on how optimized your decks are.

She is best suited with the 2/2/2 set consisting of Tetra's Authority for more defense stat, Cursed Corpse for a 10% multiplicative damage boost including her metallization damage and Executioner's Tool for an increase in critical damage. As for her refinements, it is best if she doesn't get it to make room on her save data for more Divine Epiphanies.

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 to her attacks and Verdant Shackles to get the best of both worlds of getting an attack and a defense buff for more damage and shield gain.

As of Season 2, Amir's best team is Narja and Veronica. Narja will provide shield gain that will activate metallization in quick succession while providing heals and defense-based attack buffs. Veronica's only job in this party is to provide card draw so that Amir can execute her combo.

For 1 turn, each strike fom Metalization effect hits 1 additional time, +50% Damage

In this build, Amir's goal is to enhance her metallization effect to deal multiple hits of increased damage using Full Metal Hurricane therefore make sure to pick that epiphany and use it multiple times in one turn to increase her metallization damage and hit count.

As for Hovering Metal, she can choose the epiphany that has a celestial tag if you have ways to gain more AP or the enhanced version of the base card which gives more metalize stacks if you can discount her cards. For Metal Extraction, always choose the epiphany that increases the damage amount of Metalization by 30% additively as this will further enhance her damage.

The rest of her cards, Metal Pierce and Iron Skin, is best removed at no save data cost as they do not contribute significantly in this build.

・Incinerate: Draw 3, then create 1 Broken Ebony Lumen

Narja must have the epiphany for Shackles of Hunger that gives a shield for each Voracity stack consumed, 4 times max. This will activate metalize four times using only one card and can snowball heavily when done right, dealing heavy damage to a single enemy. Bottomless Hunger and Domain of Voracity must have the epiphany that increases defense-based attack damage additively while, Voluntary Control shoulh have the enhanced version for 9 stacks of Voracity which is enough to do three Shackles of Hunger with only one copy.

Veronica is easy to build as she only needs two cards, Repose and Sir Kowalski, both drawing 2 cards in your deck. Optionally, you can give both of these characters Nutrient Absorption and Ebony Lumen for more draw and card discount so you can comfortably play your cards without needing to worry about your AP.

Wilhelmina is the only partner that boosts Amir's defense and more if she strikes a vulnerable enemy. She is also a 4-star Vanguard partner and getting copies of her is much easier than the existing 5 star partner roster. You can also consider purchasing one copy from the Twilight Shop.

Wiki - TetraTetra's Authority Set Wiki - Cursed Corpse SetCursed Corpse Set Wiki - ExecutionerExecutioner's Tool Set

The best Memory Fragment combination for Amir is Tetra's Authority, Cursed Corpse and Executioner's Tool to maximize the damage she can output on the enemy. Make sure to have any means of applying Agony on the enemy so that Cursed Corpse is active for the battle.

Stat Priority

Main Stats Recommended Substats
Ideal: Critical Chance%
Desire: Order Damage%
Imagination: Defense%
・ Defense
・ Defense %
・ Critical Chance %
・ Critical Damage %

For both main stats and substats, aim for Order Damage, Defense, Critical Chance, and Critical Damage. Defense is much preferred over Damage as all of her attacks scales off of her defense which will help increase the damage of metalize on her last potential node. Giving her more critical chance and critical damage is also good so that she can deal more damage.

Refinement:
・If Damage is completely blocked, at the start of the next turn, increase Damage Amount of allies by 10% for 1 turn (1 time per turn)
・When an Attack Card is activated on a target in a Vulnerable state, +15% Critical Chance
・Increase Damage Amount of Attack Cards by 20%

Amir's best equipment can only be found in Swamp of Judgment with Dagger That Tricked The Shadow giving her 12% more critical damage for all of her attacks. Fairy King's Crown for a 6% critical chance buff. Verdant Shackles so that Amir can gain both attack and defense stat for a higher damage boost and more shield gain.

As for refinements, all of the refinements only affects cards but not effects which most of Amir's damage is therefore, it is best to not focus on refinement on her so that you can have more room for Divine Epiphanies. Otherwise, choose any of the three options above which best suits her.

Single-Target Metallization Combo

This Amir build can deal huge amounts of damage in one turn to a single-enemy using multi-hit attacks via Metalize as long as you can get all the necessary cards played and at least 9 AP to spend in one turn. Here are the steps to do this combo:

  1. Draw cards to get Full Metal Hurricane, Bottomless Hunger, Shackles of Hunger and Domain of Voracity in your hand.
  2. Play both Bottomless Hunger and Domain of Voracity to increase your defense-based attack damage.
  3. Follow up with three Full Metal Hurricane to enhance the effects of Metalize making it hit 4 times each time Metalize activates.
  4. (Optional) if you do not have enough AP to play all of Amir's cards, make sure to use Nutrient Absorption and Ebony Lumen to discount it.
  5. If you have at least 11 stacks of Metalize, use all three Shackles of Hunger to inflict heavy single-target damage on the enemy.

Metallization Does Not Activate Voracity

Voracity specifically states that it only affects attack cards therefore, when Narja activates Amir's metalize using Shackles of Hunger she will not consume its stacks and not get the benefits of it however you can use those remaining Voracity stacks to cast more Shackles of Hunger at full stack instead.

Amir's Cards Stack With Each Other

Both Metal Extraction and Full Metal Hurricane will not extend its turn duration but instead enhances the effect of those buffs when played multiple times in one turn. Make sure you have enough AP to spend so you can activate all those effects to make her deal high damage on the enemies.
