Okay |
Offers a flexible kit with buffs and access to both light and slash damage.
However, her low defensive stats make front-row play risky, which forces her to stay in the back-row just to survive. Lacks an Ultimate Technique and is only available as a temporary recruit, limiting her long-term impact. |
Elrica is a Warrior by default. However, she's only restricted to using swords and will never use polearms.
