How Strong Is Randy?

Strengths
• Unique DEF scaling. Randy's source of damage scales off DEF, making him extremely tanky in battle. • Great for coop, as he provides extra sustain with his Ultra Shields and DEF to the entire team. • Deploys a barrier that can block all frontal projectiles. • His damaging ability primarily targets shields, making him great at leaving the DPS units to deal damage directly to enemies.
Weaknesses
• Not a lot of units benefit from his DEF buffs damage-wise. You'll mainly want to pick him up for sustain.

Randy is an Electro support character that you'll want to use as a tank. He provides multiple sustain buffs to the entire party and can block projectiles with his barrier ability. Furthermore, his damage scales off his DEF stat and is efficient at breaking enemy shields.

His main downside is that for a game with limited party slots, he takes up a spot for a support that can buff DPS units on top of healing. That said, he excels at providing sustain to the entire party.

Randy is best built as a unit that essentially soaks up damage while allowing other party members to defeat all enemies in the field. Being a sustain support, you'll want to get more Skill Duration and DEF stats to maximize his skills' effectiveness and uptime.

Randy Best Weapons

Best Randy Melee Weapons

#	Melee Weapon	Skill (Max)
1	Ingenious Tactics	DEF +100.0%. When dealing damage with this weapon triggers Bonus Effect, there's a 50.0% chance to decrease the target's Shield by 350.0% of the user's DEF.
2	Pyrothirst	Skill Duration +36.0%.
3	Tetherlash	Skil Duration +36.0%

Ingenious Tactics is tailor-made for Randy, as it ties extremely well with his kit and playstyle. You'll want to get this on him as much as possible, as it boosts his shielding, damage, and shield reduction capabilities even further.

For other weapon options, any melee weapon that gives extra Skill Duration is highly recommended to improve the uptime of his team-wide sustain abilities, as well as reducing the Sanity Cost of his Barrier.

List of All Melee Weapons

Best Randy Ranged Weapons

#	Ranged Weapon	Skill (Max)
1	Arclight Apocalypses	Skill Duration +30.0%. Landing a CRIT hit with this weapon randomly grants other allies one of the following for 16.0s: +20.0% ATK, +20.0% DEF, +15% Skill Damage, or +20.0% Skill Duration.
2	Osteobreaker	Skill Duration +36.0%.
3	Screamshot	Skill Duration +36.0%.

Randy's best weapon is Arclight Apocalypses, despite not being a weapon he is proficient at. It provides him with extra Skill Duration, as well as granting random extra buffs to his allies.

Other ranged weapons that give him Skill Duration can also be used, such as the Osteobreaker and Screamshot, which you can get even in the early game.

Randy Best Teams

Randy General Team

Randy General Team
Rhythm DPS (Active Unit)	Truffle and Filbert Support	Randy Support
Geniemon	• Electrelf (Best In Slot) Alternatives • Bunniva • Catizz

Randy is a general support unit that can improve the team's sustain in battle, while also removing shields and reducing the ATK of enemies. He can work with anybody, but we recommend using him with Rhythm and Truffle and Filbert. Rhythm is a strong DPS unit, while Truffle and Filbert is great as a healer support.

Randy Co-op Team

Randy Co-op Team
Rebecca DPS (Active Unit)	Tabethe Support	Randy Support
Geniemon	• Electrelf (Best In Slot) Alternatives • Bunniva • Catizz

Randy is great as a co-op unit since he allows other DPS team members to stay on the field without taking much damage. He soaks up a lot of projectiles with his barriers and can reduce shields with his ultimate skill. Pair him with any DPS unit.

Best Team Comps

Randy Skill Priority

Recommended Skills

Skill	Priority	Explanation
Legitimate Slackness	★★★★★	Randy's playstyle revolves around his regular skill, Legitimate Slackness. You'll want to strengthen the barrier he deploys as much as possible, as this is also the source of his debuffs and periodic Electro Damage.
Special Gift	★★★★☆	This skill is used to break enemy shields and is extremely strong once you get Randy to higher Intron levels. Upgrade this alongside his regular skill.
Shared Shield	★★☆☆☆	Randy's passive is a bit less of a priority, as it gives DEF to his teammates. While it doesn't give much damage-wise, you can still upgrade it for extra sustain.

Randy DEF Skills

Skill Effects
Legitimate Slackness Deploys a Barrier in front of Randy and deals Electro Damage to nearby enemies. Barrier consumes Sanity over time, during which Randy cannot move or use any weapon and is immune to Hitstun when taking damage. Barrier inflicts [Overwork Grudge] on nearby enemies. When this skill is used again, the Barrier is retracted.
Barrier: [Barrier] blocks frontal projectiles and absorbs their damage, and expires once it has absorbed damage equivalent to 100% of Randy's Max HP.
Overwork Grudge: Decreases ATK, and deals Electro Damage once every 2s.

Randy DMG Skills

Skill Effects
Special Gift Throws 1 [Bespoke Shield] forward, triggering [Impact] once when it halts. While active on the battlefield, [Bespoke Shield] triggers [Impact] every 3s. [Impact] deals damage only to Shields, based on Randy's DEF, and grants an Ultra Shield based on Randy's DEF to Randy and allies. For targets with 0 Shield, [Impact] paralyzes them.

Randy Passive Skills

Skill Effects
Shared Shield When Randy successfully grants an Ultra Shield to a teammate, applies 1 stack that increases their DEF based on Randy's DEF to them, up to 10 stacks.
Well-Deserved Break Once Barrier has absorbed damage equivalent to 70% of Randy's Max HP, consumes Sanity to reset the Barrier and deals the same barrier deployment damage of Legitimate Slackness 1 time.
Holdfast [Available only when deployed as a Combat Partner] Increases DEF for self and allies.

Randy Intron Levels

Recommended Intron Levels

	Why We Recommend It
I1	★★★☆☆ - Good His Intron 1 is quite good given it increases the number of stacks for his Overwork Grudge. This improves his attack reduction to enemies and deals periodic Electro damage.
I2	★★★☆☆ - Good Randy's Intron Level 2 is good to have as it improves on his sustain even more. That said, his shields at Intron 0 are good enough on their own in soaking up damage.
I4	★★★★☆ - Great This Intron level is great to have since Impact triggers multiple times with his skill, Special Gift. Having this upgrade lets him reduce the ATK of enemy targets and deal periodic Electro Damage.
I6	★★★★★ - Amazing! His Intron 6 is extremely strong, as it drastically improves his kit. This improvement removes his lack of damage, giving the entire team extra periodic damage that triggers every 3s, scaling off Randy's shield.

Intron 3 and 5 are just stat boosts. So, they are not included in the table above!

All Intron Level Effects

	Intron Effect
I1	When Barrier absorbs damage from projectiles, inflicts I stack of Overwork Grudge on the attacker for 3s, up to 2 stacks. Overwork Grudge is only stackable in this way.
I2	Each Randy's level increases his Ultra Shield cap by 50 points.
I3	Legitimate Slackness Level +2; Shared Shield Level +1.
I4	Target hit by Impact Immediately takes the damage of Overwork Grudge inflicted on the target 1 time.
I5	Special Gift Level +2; Shared Shield Level +1
I6	When Impact hits a target, it also deals additional Electro Damage equal to 1200% of Randy's Shield Points + Ultra Shield points.

Block with Legitimate Slackness

Randy can summon a Barrier in front of him with Legitimate Slackness. While the Barrier is up, it blocks projectiles in front of it and can absorb damage depending on Randy's HP.

Keep in mind that Randy cannot move while the Barrier is up. You can remove the Barrier by using the Skill again.

Decrease Enemy Attack

Enemies that touch the Barrier will have their ATK reduced.

Cast an Ultra Shield with Special Gift

Special Gift can summon another kind of shield called Bespoke Shield. This shield can absorb damage and the damage taken will go to the shields instead.

This also provides all allies with an Ultra Shield.

Ultra Shield Increases DEF

When allies receive an Ultra Shield from Randy, they also get a stackable DEF Boost.
