Rouge build & priority

Skill priority

Skill 1	Skill 2	Burst
7-8	4	4

You could take her to 10/7/4 but in my opinion it’s a waste of resources considering the CDR works anyway at that level and buffs are not that potent.

Best harmony cube

Resilience if overloaded with max ammo. If not, Wingman works.

Stat priority

The only thing she needs is a couple lines of max ammunition capacity. Of course, any type of elemental lines will also help if you’re min maxing.

Character traits

Pros

– Doesn’t need high investment since you’re mostly using her for skill 1 that provides CDR (level 7 or 8 it’s more than enough)

– Opens up A LOT of team compositions thanks to being a 777 squad member and the ability to be paired with Blanc and/or Noir

– Second-strongest CDR in the game after D: Killer Wife since it’s a literal copy with just different reload speed

Cons

– Her buff modifiers are not that high (ATK and attack damage) but it’s a nice extra to the CDR

– She needs to be positioned in the back row (position 2 or 4) and most people will either never read that part of the kit or completely forget

– Not auto or beginner-friendly because the positioning mechanic for the buffs since units are getting more complex and people… well, they just don’t read (god bless waifu collectors)
