A beautiful sword of unknown origin, rumored to carry a curse that makes those who duel its wielder tire unusually fast. May draws out its full potential when equipped.

Guide

Performance:

  • Among the classes, Decurion Valkyrie is the most usable. Since it raises combo damage and has healing, it is worth using in Training or Raid.
  • The skill Gale Fang Fang costs only 1 TP and, with a Whetstone, deals up to 190% damage, an excellent single-target skill, but its 3-turn cooldown is on the long side. In the end the most-used skill is Flying Void Flash Blade.
  • The ultimate Snow Moon Flower Ultimate Soul is a mobile-original ultimate, easy to use and applies Taunt too, an excellent area skill.

Exclusive Weapon and Recommended Gear:

  • Exclusive weapon is Celestial; additional stat is Attack. It increases counterattack damage, and heals HP based on attack power once per turn after a counterattack. When May equips it, counterattack damage and healing increase, and she gains the 'Counterstrike' buff (attack power up) after counterattacking. Since hero-grade and lower rapiers perform poorly in this game, obtaining the exclusive weapon is recommended.
  • For armor, the common Valkyrie recommendation Senior Scout can be used, but since May is closer to a dealer, giving her dealer armor like the Assassin set or Chivalrous is more recommended. At legendary grade, wearing the Red Wind set (motif of Alcyon's outfit) to boost Decurion Valkyrie's combo specialization is an option, and mixing in a set that gives attack up on Musin 2 for a max-damage set.
  • For accessories: to secure survival, use the Healing Censer along with Sara and Joan; to go as a dealer, the Whetstone is recommended to max out Gale Fang Fang.

Evaluation:

  • A Valkyrie with a strong offensive tendency. The ultimate is powerful, she can specialize in combo, and with a Whetstone equipped, Gale Fang Fang's damage is very usable.
  • No explicit S/A/B tier rating is present on this page.
