Character Profile

Daffodill is an S-Class, Chaos, Liquid character. Daffodill is one of the "Standard" characters, meaning they are accessible through the gacha system permanently.

Daffodill is the only Chaos character in the starting roster, meaning you will need her to trigger reactions such as Nova/Scorched/Discord. (Until another Chaos character releases -> Lacrimosa soon)

Daffodill specializes in "Break," allowing you to deplete enemy shields easily. This gives her flexibility in team-building as you can slot her in just about anywhere to fulfill her role.

Best Teams

Based on our current understanding of the game's Elemental system, we want to pair Daffodill with a Psyche and Incantation character. These two elements combine with Chaos for Nova and Scorched respectively, and hitting both reactions will trigger Discord.

As such, our options of these characters are:

Psyche - Fadia Haniel
Incantation - Baicang Sakiri Adler

Example Teams:

Baicang Daffodill Sakiri Haniel - 2 DPS 2 Support
Nanally Sakiri Daffodill Haniel - 2 DPS 2 Support
Fadia Daffodill Adler + Flex - 2 Survival
Daffodill Haniel Adler + Flex - F2P

Best Weapons

  • BiS: Youthful Fantasy (F2P)
  • F2P: Shiny Days

All Standard characters can obtain their Signature Weapon through the overworld later in the game. For Daffodill, Youthful Fantasy is the perfect compliment.

The Arc grants Break Intensity, deals Chaos DMG during Break, and increases Chaos DMG dealt after conditions are met. Overall, it's the perfect fit for Daffodill.

For the early game, Shiny Days is a good pick for an A-Class Arc. If you don't have it, don't worry about it too much and wait until you can obtain S-Classes later in the game.

Best Cartridges & Modules

  • Cartridge: Diabolos (S)
  • Main Stat: Break Intensity / Chaos DMG
  • Substats: Break Intensity / Crit Rate / Crit DMG / DMG / ATK

Diabolos is the only Cartridge with 2-piece Chaos DMG. The 4-piece effect also pairs nicely, ignoring enemy Chaos RES. However, it is possible other set effects will be stronger under certain conditions. This set is simply the easy "use the Chaos set on the Chaos character."

We don't know for certain if Break Intensity can be overinvested. Mixing Break Intensity with damage stats will certainly be optimal, but we don't know the exact balance yet. If you get either of these stats, it should be perfectly good to use for the forseeable future.

As a DPS, look for the usual damage substats, with Break Intensity also being a good one to hit.
