Description | ||
Juniper is an Attacker and a Stalker who uses a bow to attack her enemies. They excel at hiding and striking foes from a distance using their bow. |
Attack | Defense | Healing | Support |
---|---|---|---|
A | C | C | A |
Juniper's high Attack and Critical Rate make them excellent at landing critical hits on enemies. Their high Agility also makes them a difficult target to hit, providing them with a decent defensive advantage that other Attacker heroes do not have.
Their attacks also have remarkably high range, allowing them to stay a safe distance away from combat.
Though they has high Agility, their other defensive stats are similar to other Attackers, making them fragile if enemies manage to hit them.
Many of their attacks and skills also rely on certain conditions to unleash their full damage, such as HP or debuff requirements. Since you cannot control Heroes, setting up these conditions for them is a difficult task.
Recruiting Juniper allows you to learn the Field Traversal Skill Rope Sliding, which allows you to slide down different ropes and cables found across the map.
All Field Skills and How to Unlock
After recruiting Juniper, they and their class will be capped at Rank 10. To break the class limit and rank them up to Rank 20, you must first complete their Ascension Quest: Survivors.

Force of Nature | Set Field | AOE around User | Field range of effect - medium |
Liberation Arrow | Ether Attack | Frontward AOE | Boosts damage dealt when attacking from the side by 120%. |
Downdraft is an important Art to have since one of Juniper's skills relies on the Bleed debuff. Force of Nature is also a useful effect to equip onto Juniper since it can provide the rest of your party with the Art Follow-Up effect.

Juniper is non-binary. We'd appreciate changing the pronouns to they/them (the same pronouns used by the literal game). Proof: The in-game files have male characters as 0 and female as 1 in the code but Juniper is listed as "2" i dont know how much more proof you want. This is the same in Japanese where they never use female related words either. Both the game and twitter account (if you know proper Japanese). They're referred to as "X gender" in Japan that is the equivalent of non-binary.
