How to Beat Lea Overview

Lea
PvE Rank	PvP Rank

Base Rarity	Soul	Type	Role
SR (Limited)	Emerald	Sniper	Attacker

A hard-hitting assassin that goes after the witch with the highest ATK in your party. Lea can be a nightmare to deal with if you only have one main attacker in your party, as she will be able to kill them in two turns or less with her hard-hitting attacks.

Fortunately, she can be distracted by fielding a second attacker with a higher ATK while your main attacker takes her out. Either that, or you pump your main attacker with EVD runes and buffs. Since Lea's skills only do one attack, there's a good chance that she'll miss.

Lea Strengths and Weaknesses

Strengths	Weaknesses
• Hard-hitting attacks that target the enemy witch with the highest ATK • Active Skills deal stronger damage if conditions in skills are not met. • ATK and CRIT buffs further strengthen attacks.	• Active skills only do one attack each, making them easy to evade. • Lea's targeting can be messed with by fielding another witch with a high ATK in your team. • Easy to kill even with AOE witches.

Lea Skill Analysis

Assassinates Main Attackers With Ease

Shut Up, Shut Up!!

No Looking, No Laughing!!

Delirium

Both of Lea's active skills focus on dealing large amounts of damage to the enemy with the highest ATK and become more powerful if certain conditions are not met. "Shut Up, Shut Up!!" gets more powerful if it fails to inflict Faint on its target, while "No Looking, No Laughing" gets stronger if the target doesn't have an EVD debuff.

Both skills are also strengthened by her first passive skill, Delirium, which buffs her ATK and CRIT stats.

However powerful these skills are, however, Lea's targeting and low attack counts can be exploited by savvy players.

Has Defensive Buffs

Paranoia

Though she's squishier than some witches, Lea still has a couple of defensive buffs in the form of a 15% damage cut and a Stealth buff that prevents her from getting single-target attacks (like from herself).

Witches to Beat Lea

Lea Hard Counters

Cordie

Florence

If you have both of these attackers in your team, you can simply have one attacker be pumped with ATK runes while the other one is your main attacker overall. This is so that Lea goes after one, while the other dishes out the damage.

Liselotte

Rusalka

Liselotte and Rusalka both have area-of-effect (AOE) attacks that can easily hit Lea and defeat her, even if they don't target her specifically. This is due to her low HP and damage cut.

Dian

Freesia

Nina

Since Lea's skills have low attack counts, they can be easily evaded by a Nina with EVD buffs from both Dian and Freesia. Nina in turn can go and defeat Lea and the rest of her party with impunity.

Lea Sample Counter Teams

Nina Counter Team

Buffer	Attacker	Buffer	Buffer	Debuffer
Merlyn	Nina	Dian	Freesia	Cordie

Nina is the main attacker though she has EVD buffs from Dian and Freesia, while Cordie should be speed-tuned so that she's the first to move in the team and inflict the DEF debuff from her unique weapon Jack & Pot on the enemy team (though Nina should still have higher ATK).

Nina should be able to evade most, if not all of Lea's attacks.

Witches Not To Use Against Lea

Any main attacker on their lonesome.

Lea's main gimmick is targeting lone main attackers in the enemy party, so sending out anyone who doesn't have a secondary attacker with higher ATK or EVD buffs would be in danger from Lea's killing blows.

Tips for Beating Lea

Bring a Secondary Attacker

The easiest way to deal with a Lea is to have a secondary attacker on hand with higher ATK so that Lea targets them instead. While she's distracted, your main attacker then causes damage and kills the enemy team outright.

You can also bring along attackers who do AOE attacks with their skills so that Lea gets caught up in the attack. Her light defensive options should make defeating her this way trivial.

Buff Your EVD

Since Lea only does one attack with each of her skills, evading them can be done easily enough with high EVD.
