Lucy Best Builds, Teams, Guide & Review

Lucy is an A Rank Agent released all the way back in Version 1.0. Fun fact, she was not part of the beta, but was included along with Piper for the game's release.

Support Buffs

As a Support, Lucy does a solid job at buffing the team with her Cheer On! ability (600 ATK). M4 Chaos Ball Game also provides 10% Crit DMG to the team. You activate the buff with EX Special. M2 Little Boar Captain will also allow Ultimate/Chain to apply Cheer On!

Cheer On! will usually last 10 seconds, before needing to be reapplied, but M6 Fierce Fangs of Fire allows other teammates to extend the buff with their own EX Special Attacks. M6 will also increase Lucy's personal damage.

Interestingly enough, Lucy is one of the few Agents where leveling her skill is more important than her Core Passive.

"Meta" Relevance

While Lucy can't compare to Agents like Astra Yao or Yuzuha, she's still capable of clearing some endgame content. Even in Version 2.1,
Piper + Lucy + Burnice can get 20k+ on Miasmic Fiend in Deadly Assault. This is quite impressive considering the team only has 1 Limited Agent.

For players looking to build the strongest teams, Lucy unfortunately doesn't make the cut. But for new players needing a Support to level up, Lucy can do a great job.

Boars

While not major, Lucy can provide noticeable personal damage with her Boars. The Boars will inherit her stats (ATK, AP, Impact) and Crit Rate/DMG through her Additional Ability: Batter Up!

For stronger teams with Limited characters like Miyabi, Evelyn, Lighter, etc, increasing Lucy's personal damage through disks and skill levels won't change performance much.

However, for older teams like Piper Burnice, every little bit can help.

1. EX Special
2. Core Passive
3. Basic Attack = Ultimate
4. Assist
5. Dodge

Max EX Special for buff, Core Passive/Basic/Ultimate are all for personal damage/slight daze increase, Assist is for slight Daze increase, and Dodge can be ignored.

Kaboom the Cannon

This engine simply provides the best team buffs. It also increases Lucy's Boar damage.

Weeping Cradle

This Engine could be great but, unfortunately, it does not count Lucy's Boars into the passive, meaning the passive won't work very well.

F2P / New Player Option. Pick depending on team you are playing.

Astral Voice

Will be the go to set for Lucy, but effectiveness is contextual. For example, in a team of Piper Lucy Burnice, there isn't that much Quick Assisting outside of Lucy EX and Burnice Ult. With high enough Energy, this downside can be mitigated.

Swing Jazz

Choice for Burst Teams, such as Harumasa Qingyi Lucy, or if you have another Agent holding Astral already, such as Soldier 11 Lucy Nicole.

Proto Punk

Third option and potentially better than above two options in the right circumstances / strong uptime if played around correctly. However, uptime cannot be maintained during Stun window.

2-PC

• Hormone Punk / Astral Voice ATK% to max out Cheer on Buff
• Branch & Blade Song / Woodpecker Electro Crit personal damage
• Freedom Blues / Chaos Jazz AP personal damage

Maxing out Lucy's Attack buff from Cheer On! isn't too bad, but you can save some levels if you have high enough attack. Here's a quick breakdown:

• Level 1: 4029
• Level 2: 3781
• Level 3: 3558
• Level 4: 3358
• Level 5: 3176
• Level 6: 3011
• Level 7: 2860
• Level 8: 2722
• Level 9: 2594
• Level 10: 2476
• Level 11: 2367
• Level 12: 2265
• Level 13: 2171
• Level 14: 2083
• Level 15: 2000
• Level 16: 1922

Stats

For Main Stats, ATK% 4, ATK% 5, and Energy 6 is a simple and effective build. It helps you max your buff and the Energy is good for reapplying the buff.

If you already hit the cap needed to max out Cheer On!, you can use other pieces like Crit Rate 4, Anomaly Proficiency 4, etc.

All stats will increase Lucy's personal damage, but Crit is preferred for Attack based teams, and AP for Anomaly teams, especially when paired with Burnice.

Since Lucy and Burnice both apply Fire Anomaly, you don't want Lucy to dilute the damage from Burnice.
