Trace priority

  1. Skill
  2. Ultimate
  3. Talent

Himeko gains Charge whenever enemies are Weakness Broken, then converts three stacks into an automatic all-enemy follow-up.

How to play it

  1. 1Match enemy weaknesses across the team so every Break contributes Charge.
  2. 2Use the Skill on a central target each turn to damage three enemies.
  3. 3Use the Ultimate to finish several weakened enemies and refund Energy, feeding the next wave.

Sources and methodology

Editorial recommendations are written from released game data, then cross-checked against specialist calculations. They are not copied from a single tier list.

Review method

Prydwen and Mobalytics both support the CRIT follow-up core; Mobalytics also distinguishes Sigonia's Pure Fiction niche from generic planar choices. This guide therefore uses base SPD and fully stacked Sigonia for Pure Fiction. The choice and its ten-kill assumption were rechecked against the exact 4.4 catalog and released 4.0–4.4 delta.

Independent fan recommendations based on released data. This CRIT build is tuned for multi-target content with frequent Weakness Breaks, not a single-target boss.
