Pros
  • Lady of the Lake is an extremely loaded support passive, granting her Ice Pierce, 30% battle speed, reducing the party's Ice MP costs by 1, and granting the party 30% damage bonus when in a state of Zenith. Additionally, all enemies will take 40% additional ice damage.
    • On top of those effects, when attacking first, as well as when Teardrop is used, she casts a one turn Tarukaja and also places her team in a state of Zenith. Whenever she enters a state of Zenith, she also heals 20% hp to the whole party.
  • Teardrop is a single target 180 BP Ice attack with Remnants. When it is successful, she also casts a one turn Debilitate. Due to her passive, this skill will also only cost 4MP when maxed, meaning it can potentially be cast even when affected by Spirit Chains (Indignation).
  • Ice Accele helps her team go first, and Solar Downfall helps her control buffs if this isn't a concern.
  • The heal on her passive creates a powerful T0 comp with units like Ardha, Kangiten, and the Lakshmi A and Mithras combo. All of these units have effects that happen after a heal, letting them chain massive amounts of damage before the enemy can retaliate at all.
  • Top tier for Ice Democ as her buff control is exceptional and her damage boosters are massive.
  • Useful panels that offer additional speed, damage, as well as some extra HP and HP recovery.
  • Good for BoS Avarice as ice is one of the two needed elements.
Cons
  • Ironically because ice units aren't generally the strongest, outside of PvE content, her ice supportive abilities aren't especially useful. She's stronger as a healing chain starter for T0 comps in PvP.
  • While she's a fast demon, with 236 agi and up to 70% battle speed in her kit, competition like Astaroth is still faster. Her teammates for an ideal T0 comp also aren't the fastest which can create battle speed issues. If she doesn't go first, she loses.
  • Outside of these two specialized roles, she's not the most useful, meaning compared to more meta supports she isn't nearly as versatile.
  • Incredibly reliant on having specific teammates. Absolutely useless in PvP if you don't have her partners.
