Lucy Strengths and Weaknesses

Weaknesses
• Boars may have a hard time keeping up with fast enemies.

Lucy Best Builds

Lucy Off-Field Support Build

Best W-Engine	Kaboom the Cannon
Alt. W-Engines	1. Reverb - Mark III
Drive Disc Build	Swing Jazz (4-pc) Hormone Punk (2-pc)
Disc Main Stats	6: ATK or Energy Regen
	5: ATK
	4: CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, or ATK
Disc Substats	CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, ATK

This build maximizes Lucy's supporting capabilities. Focus on increasing her CRIT, ATK, and Energy. Consider increasing her Impact stat as well since Lucy's Guard Boars will inherit it from her.

Since Lucy is a Support character, Swing Jazz is the best 4-piece Drive Disc set for her since it increases her Energy, allowing Lucy to use her Ex Special Attack and activate the Cheer On! status faster. Hormone Punk simply increases her ATK, a stat that affects a lot of Lucy's abilities.

Lucy Best Teams and Bangboo

Lucy Disorder Team

Lucy Disorder Team			Bangboo
Lucy Support	Burnice Anomaly	Yanagi Anomaly	Rocketboo
Bangboo Alternatives		• Cryboo • Magnetiboo • Baddieboo

Lucy is a great Support unit that can buff all party members' ATK. Use her EX Special Attack and Chain Attack to summon her Boars to buff both Burnice and Yanagi's ATK.

This in turn will increase both DPS units' Anomaly Attribute DMG and help them destroy enemies with Disorder.

Lucy Fire Team

Lucy Semi-F2P Team			Bangboo
Lucy Support	Soldier 11 Attack	Ben Defense	Rocketboo
Bangboo Alternatives		• Cryboo • Avocaboo

This team is somewhat free-to-play friendly since Ben is a free character and it is possible to get Soldier 11 within your first 50 pulls in the Star-Studded Cast banner.

Basically, this is a mono-Fire team. So, it is viable for a stage that contains enemies weak to Fire. Soldier 11 will be the Main DPS and Ben's role is to stun enemies and provide some shields.

If you were not able to pull Soldier 11 and got Koleda instead, use her since her kit gets an upgrade if Ben is on the team!

Lucy Best W-Engines

All W-Engine (Weapon) Guides

Kaboom the Cannon is the Best for Lucy

Kaboom the Cannon is an A Rank W-Engine and Lucy's best-in-slot since it can increase the team's ATK.

Lucy Best Drive Discs

Best Drive Discs and Set Bonuses

Drive Disc	Rating and Merits
Swing Jazz (4-pc) Hormone Punk (2-pc)	★★★ - Best Set! Swing Jazz increases Lucy's Energy Regen and provides a DMG buff to the team when launching a Chain Attack or Ultimate. Hormone Punk is a great 2-piece set since it increases Lucy's ATK. The Cheer On! status that Lucy provides to her allies is based on her ATK stat.
Swing Jazz (4-pc) Shockstar Disco (2-pc)	★★☆ - 2nd Best If you instead want to increase Lucy's Impact to allow the Guard Boars to build up more Daze, then replace Hormone Punk with the Drive Disc called Shockstar Disco.

Lucy Skill Priority

Skill	Priority	Explanation
Core Skill	★★★★★	Basically, upgrading Lucy's Core Skill further buffs the ATK of her Guard Boars. So, this is a top-priority upgrade as well.
Basic Attack	★★★★★	Upgrading Lucy's Basic Attack also upgrades the abilities of her Guard Boars. So, Lucy's Basic Attack should be one of the first abilities you upgrade.
Dodge	★★☆☆☆	It is seldomly used by Lucy in combat and upgrading its damage is not that important for Lucy's gameplay.
Assist	★★★☆☆	There is no harm in raising Lucy's Assist. But, upgrading it has a lower priority compared to her other abilities.
Special Attack	★★★★★	Upgrade Lucy's Special Attack first since it increases the ATK buff that Cheer On! provides. Also, it increases the DMG and Daze of all of her Special Attack variations.
Chain Attack	★★★☆☆	While Lucy will use her Chain Attack multiple times, her Ultimate will barely be used.

Lucy must upgrade her Special Attack and Basic Attack equally as they both buff the ATK of her Guard Boars. Then, upgrade her Core Skill whenever you can for additional passive upgrades.

How to Play Lucy

• Summon Guard Boars When On-Field
• Two Ways to Activate Special Attack
• Cheer On! Gives Everyone an ATK Buff
• Lucy's Ultimate Provides Energy
• Lucy EX Special Attack Swap Trick

Summon Guard Boars When On-Field

When Lucy switches in, use her Special Attack immediately even if Lucy's Energy has yet to reach the red cursor above her Energy Bar. Doing this allows you to summon 3 Guard Boars on-field and deal damage against enemies.

Guard Boars Attack Enemies

You do not control the Guard Boars but they have their own set of abilities that scales off Lucy's Basic Attack node. Also, the Guard Boars will remain on-field when switching out.

They will do an enhanced attack if Lucy uses her fourth Basic Attack or when she activates Cheer On! after using her Ex Special Attack.

Two Ways to Activate Special Attack

Special Attack Activation
Press Special Attack Button	Hold Special Attack Button

There are two different ways to activate Lucy's Special Attack and Ex Special Attack. Pressing the Special Attack button allows Lucy to launch the Guard Boars at a straight line and deal damage.

When you hold the Special Attack button, Lucy will instead launch the Guard Boars upwards and deal more damage compared to just pressing the button. Ideally, you want to use her Special Attack by holding the button!

Cancel Special Attack Animation

Lucy's Special Attacks have long animations and enemies might attack her when she uses them. But, they can be shortened if you dodge as soon as Lucy hits a Guard Boar using her bat. Then, you can follow it up with a Dash Attack.

Do note that Lucy is invulnerable while using her Ex Special Attack. So, it is okay not to cancel its animation.

Cheer On! Gives Everyone an ATK Buff

Cheer On! is a team-wide ATK Buff that activates when Lucy uses her Ex Special Attack. The effect lasts longer when you hold the Special Attack button.

With this, aim to fill up Lucy's Energy Bar when on-field using her Basic Attacks. Then, hold the Special Attack button as soon as Lucy's Energy reaches the red cursor above her Energy Bar.

Switch to the Main DPS Immediately

After using Lucy's Ex Special Attack, switch to the team's main damage dealer immediately to take advantage of the ATK buff that Cheer On! provides. As mentioned before, the Guard Boars will remain on-field to assist Lucy's allies.

Lucy's Ultimate Provides Energy

Lucy's Ultimate deals massive AoE Fire DMG by launching all of her Guard Boars. More importantly, it provides 10 Energy to all of her allies and additional 20 Energy to the next character switching in.

Unless you really need the Energy, we do not recommend using this ability. Use your Main DPS' Ultimate instead when switching them in to maximize their damage!

Lucy Special Attack Swap Trick

Lucy Swap Trick
Chain Attack with Lucy as the Last Hit → EX Special Attack → Dodge → Special Attack → Quick Assist

Ideally, Lucy should be the last character to hit with a Chain Attack here for this to work. Lucy can fire an EX Special Attack and then press Dodge as soon as she fires her Guard Boars to cancel the animation.

Afterwards, you can fire another Special Attack then Quick Assist to your DPS. This trick is especially useful for closing in on a far away enemy.

Lucy Mindscape Cinema (Duplicates)

Recommended Cinema

	Why We Recommend It
M1	★★★★☆ - Great Provides Lucy with Energy whenever the Guard Boars use their spinning attack that triggers when Lucy uses her fourth Basic Attack or when she activates the Cheer On! status. This a great upgrade that will allow Lucy to use her Ex Special Attack more frequently.
M2	★★★★★ - Amazing This provides another way for Lucy to activate the Cheer On! status by using her Chain Attack or Ultimate. A solid upgrade since it lessens Lucy's field time, allowing the team's stunner and DPS to be on-field most of the time.
M4	★★★★☆ - Great This Cinema adds an additional buff to the Cheer On! status, which is a CRIT DMG increase of 10%. A great upgrade since it buffs the overall damage of the team.
M6	★★★★★ - Amazing This Cinema drastically increases the duration of Cheer On! when an ally uses their Ex Special Attack. Lucy's Guard Boars will also deal Fire DMG whenever this new mechanic triggers. This is no doubt an amazing upgrade for Lucy.

M3 and M5 are excluded since they are only for skill enhancement.

Mindscape Cinema List and Effects

	Cinema Effect
M1	Drill Formations When the guard boars launch Guard Boars: Spinning Swing!, Lucy recovers 2 Energy. This effect can trigger once every 15s, with each guard boar having its own separate cooldown.
M2	Little Boar Captain When Lucy uses a Chain Attack or Ultimate, it grants all squad members, Bangboo, and the guard boars the Cheer On! status for 10s.
M3	Ironfist Overseer Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2
M4	Chaos Ball Game While in the Cheer On! state, allies' CRIT DMG is increased by an additional 10%.
M5	Wildland Princess Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2
M6	Fierce Fangs of Fire When an ally in the Cheer On! state hits an enemy with an EX Special Attack, a guard boar will drop from the sky and cause an explosion, dealing Fire DMG equal to 300% of the guard boar's ATK. This will extend the duration of the Cheer On! buff for all squad members by 5s. The duration can increase up to 3 times, with a maximum duration of 30s. Refreshing the Cheer On! state resets the stack count. After the guard boar's explosion, it will launch Guard Boars: Spinning Swing!.
