Kasumi Yoshizawa Skill Explanation
Always Start the Fight with Invitation to Another Character
In every fight, regardless of any situation, always start the fight with Invitation to another ally, specifically ones that also uses a damaging skill, so that Violet will start using her Cinderalla Glow to damage the enemy even if it is not her turn. This will also let her get more Step stacks before she uses her highlight.
Use Cinderalla Glow to Gain More Step Stacks
After using Invitation, make sure to follow it up with Cinderalla Glow activated by Violet herself to deal even more damage and gain more Step stacks.
Go to Masquerade Mode then Activate Highlight For Free
During the first 2 turns, ignore the visuals of her portrait because you want to fully maximize her Step stacks therefore, always use her highlight every 3rd turn to deal massive single-target damage to an enemy to spend all her Step stacks.
End With Midnight Magic After Activating Highlight
After activating her highlight, you still have the turn so use her Midnight Magic while she is still in Masquerade mode to enhance its damage and deal even more damage.

Violet is a special case where all of her skills are great and important in her skill rotations but if you ever want to prioritize a skill then enhancing her thief tactics is best so that her highlights can deal more damage.
Your next priority should be enhancing her skill 1, Cinderalla Glow, since she uses and activates it often especially once her Invitation buff is online which should be your next priority after it.
Lastly, Midnight Magic should also be maxed out but can be prioritized last as this will be her finisher after using her highlight while still in Masquerade mode.

Violet's best revelation card set are Virtue, to increase her bless damage and critical chance when at 50% HP and above, and Wisdom, for a highlight damage increase.
As for her main stats and sub stats, she does not need any stats to meet for her to be at full potential therefore it is best for her to focus on offensive stats such as Critical Rate, Critical Damage, Damage Mult and Pierce Rate stat. She already buffs herself with a lot of attack buffs, it is better to ignore the attack stat for her cards.

As for her best mindscape priority, since she uses all of her skills at full potential, it is best to prioritize the nodes that enhances her skills. You can then use the rest of your resource on enhancing her critical damage as this is her main source of damage and adding more will help her deal more damage.
Best Awarenesses
 Masked Ball★★★★★ |
Unmasked Ball ★★★★☆ |
Kasumi on Awareness 0 is already great, thanks to the buffs she got in global making her Awareness 1 not a necessity anymore. This ensures that she can always deal high highlight damage to the enemy every 3rd turn.
If you want to essentially double her damage, her next best is Awareness 6 which makes her able to use highlight twice for every Masquerade activation.
