Level 2 (Unlocks by level 81)
Additionally has a 70% chance to inflict [Bleed] on all targets for 1 turn. Each turn, at the start of the action phase, [Bleed] deals damage equal to 50% of Alexandra’s ATK.

Skill Skill Effect
Memento Mori - Loyalty to the Pope Icon
Loyalty to the Pope
Level 1 (Unlocks by level 61)
When Alexandra is attacked, this skill restores HP equal to 15% of the damage she takes to her. Her HP is further restored by 15% of the damage she takes for each Emerald Soul ally other than Alexandra who is alive at the start of the battle (her HP can be restored by a total of 60% max). If Alexandra is defeated by the attack, this skill will not activate. This skill activates up to 3 times every turn.
Level 2 (Unlocks by level 141)
This skill now activates up to 5 times every turn.
Level 3 (Unlocks by level 221)
The amount her HP is restored by becomes equal to 20% of the damage she takes. Her HP is further restored by 20% of the damage she takes for each Emerald Soul ally other than Alexandra who is alive at the start of the battle (her HP can be restored by a total of 80% max).

Shield Surge offers good AoE damage that scales well and can inflict Bleed for DoT, but it hits random targets at level 1 and relies on Bleed for a portion of the damage. Loyalty to the Pope makes Alexandra incredibly survivable by healing her for a percentage of damage taken, especially with Emerald Soul allies. However, it only activates after she is hurt and does nothing if the attack defeats her.

Level 4 (Unlocks by )

Crimson Cross is a powerful single-target nuke that scales well with Alexandra's attack, but it only focuses on one enemy and doesn't offer any team utility. Guardian Knight's Desire provides a massive attack boost and accuracy increase later in the fight, along with cooldown reduction to unleash her full potential. However, this combo suffers from a delayed power spike as the buff activates on turn 7, leaving Alexandra vulnerable early on.

Witches to Beat Alexandra

Alexandra Hard Counters

MementoMori - Cordie IconCordie

Cordie's high damage output, critical hit potential, and debuff immunity make her a strong contender to take down Alexandra before she becomes a threat.

MementoMori - Florence IconFlorence

Florence's critical hit stacking, high physical damage potential, and random targeting with potential focus make her a strong contender to eliminate Alexandra before she becomes a threat. While reaching max stacks on Scarlet Shimmer might require some luck, her overall damage output and critical hit chance can significantly weaken Alexandra.

MementoMori - Belle IconBelle

Belle possesses a toolkit that can significantly disrupt and potentially hard counter Alexandra. Her magical attacks, Explosive End and Fire Dragon's Wrath, boast high damage output, potentially eliminating Alexandra before she activates Guardian Knight. Explosive End also carries the chance to dispel the very buff that strengthens Alexandra, further hindering her. Fire Dragon's Wrath guarantees hits and prioritizes low-HP targets, making it ideal for finishing off a buffed Alexandra. While relying on critical hits for the dispel and attack buff can be a slight hurdle, Belle's overall skillset offers a strong counter-strategy against Alexandra.

Dispel and Damage Team

MementoMori - Florence IconFlorence MementoMori - Merlyn IconMerlyn MementoMori - Cordie IconCordie MementoMori - Soltina IconSoltina MementoMori - Fenrir IconFenrir

Fenrir, Merlyn, Florence, and Cordie has a good chance of countering Alexandra thanks to a combination of skills. Fenrir's defense boost and Merlyn's healing help your team stay in the fight. Skills like Merlyn's dispel and Soltina's self-cleanse can counter Alexandra's debuffs. High damage dealers like Florence and Cordie can take her down quickly, especially if Cordie's health is low. Merlyn and Florence's critical hit buffs add extra punch to your attacks.

Critical Hit Team

Tank Attacker Attacker Healer Debuffer
MementoMori - Amleth IconAmleth MementoMori - Belle IconBelle MementoMori - Sabrina IconSabrina MementoMori - Freesia IconFreesia MementoMori - Soltina IconSoltina

Belle's magic and Amleth's physical damage can take her down quickly, while Sabrina weakens Alexandra's defenses and Soltina removes debuffs to keep your team functioning smoothly. Freesia provides essential healing and damage reduction, keeping your team healthy throughout the fight. This well-rounded team offers strong offense, support, and debuff removal, making it a great choice for countering Alexandra.

Witches Not To Use Against Alexandra

MementoMori - Primavera IconPrimavera

While her damage can be high, her reliance on single-target physical attacks and lack of dispel might make her less effective.

MementoMori - Ophelia IconOphelia

Her random targeting and limited debuff duration can make it difficult to consistently counter Alexandra's burst damage.

MementoMori - Amour IconAmour

While she can be disruptive, her self-revive relies on being defeated first, and her lower base damage might not be enough to take down a buffed Alexandra.

Tips for Beating Alexandra

Use Characters with Debuffs or Dispels Buffs

Use characters that can interrupt Alexandra with debuffs like Buff Immunity, Sleep, Fainted or other crowd-control effects before she activates Guardian Knight's Desire. This prevents her from getting her big attack boost and cooldown reduction.

Defeat Alexandra Before Guardian Knight Activates

Use High Damage characters that can deal massive damage quickly so that they can take Alexandra out befores she becomes a threat when Guardian Knight's Desire gets activated. Alexandra gets this skill activated at her 7th turn, so make sure she gets shot down before that.
