A necessity for flame mains and teams

Not only does Ruby possess the unique Flame Resonance, but she also has great attack performance. A combination of these significantly increase the overall firepower for a team or party with fire as the main element.

Skills have high fire power against enemies

Ruby's weapon, Spark, can put enemies into an Emblazen state, by hitting them with its Sparkling Collider skill attack. Once under the Emblazen effect, enemies are more vulnerable to normal attacks.

Using this skill at the beginning of a fight will turn the battle to your favor, and render enemies weak to your attacks early on.

Can gather scattered enemies and wipe them out

Ruby's dodge skill, Go Dolly, allows you to throw Dolly towards a group of enemies and gather them towards one location, making it easier to target them all at once and defeat a large group faster.

Shatter Enemies with Flame Attacks and Controlled Defense

In this team, Spark will be the opening weapon with its decent shatter and charge values that can build weapon charge fast while weakening enemy shields. Alternate between Spark and Scythe of the Crow to break enemy and world boss shields with powerful flame attacks.

Plus, Spark's Flame Resonance boosts fire weapon attacks immensely. While Ruby's and King's weapons place you on the offensive without much defense, utilize Zero's Omnium Shield and healing orb skill at 5 Star Advancement to help with damage reduction.

PvE Advancement Priorities

Ruby 1 Star: Ruby is great with an Emblazen effect that increases Spark attack and lowered weapon cooldown at 1 Star.

King 3 Star: Get King's added Shatter Value and increased burn effects at 1 Star Advancement first. His 3 Star Advancement also grants you extra damage for each enemy that is within 6 meters from you.

Zero 5 Star: Get Zero to at least 5 Stars to unlock the healing orb passive, skill cooldown, and a damage orb passive that increases damage and healing done for self and teammates.

Alternative Characters and Weapons

Character / Weapon	Explanation
Cobalt-B	Cobalt-B's Flaming Revolver is a good alternative to King's Scythe of the Crow if you want a more balanced shatter and charge value. Both Ruby and Cobalt-B have a flame resonance, but they cannot be stacked when used together.

Cocoritter	Cocoritter's Absolute Zero is a great alternative to Zero's Negating Cube if you prefer more burst healing and the ability to inflict the Ice Shell debuff on the enemy.

Defeat Enemies with Range and Power

With all weapons sporting high charge values, take advantage of each weapon's discharge attack that can deal a lot of damage on your enemies.

Spark and Venus are the opening weapons that attack enemies from a safe distance while gathering enough charge for Molten Shield V2 to release its Seething Rage discharge attack.

Flame damage is heightened thanks to Ruby's flame resonance as well. Use Nemesis' Pulse Lock skill to stun targets and grant you the needed advantage, plus her healing abilities to keep your HP up.

Alternative Characters and Weapons

Character / Weapon	Explanation
Meryl	Meryl's Rosy Edge is a great alternative to Huma's Molten Shield V2 as her Frost Barrier discharge traps enemies in one location, making them more vulnerable to your attacks.
Zero	Zero's Negating Cube is a great alternative to Nemesis's Venus as it still activates Ruby's Flame Resonance, while providing you with a shield and some healing.
