Ari

XAChemicalVanguard

Seth's daughter, whose original body cannot move due to a rare disease. She lives on by transplanting her consciousness into a robotic body using her father's full-dive technology. After joining Dynamite Blue, she resolved to live happily every day, but she cannot hide her monstrous strength.

Verdict

InvestBuild Ari when you pull one: the team shield, and later team invincibility, make Ari the strongest protector in the game, at the cost of four Skill Cores.

PvESGFCS
Why this tier

PvE SThe 75% team shield at skill Lv. 20 is the biggest protection in the game, and Lv. 40 adds team invincibility. The cost is four Skill Cores, and Chemical sits on only 3 stone lists.

GFC STaunt and a 70% Stun from skill Lv. 10 pull the enemy's focus while the 75% team shield soaks the late rounds. At Speed 104, faster teams still act first.

Overview

Ari carries the largest shield in the game, which is why Ari sits in the S band. Feast of Blood hits one enemy for 150% every 3 turns with a 70% Stun from skill Lv. 10. At Lv. 20 it shields every ally for 75% of Max HP, Lv. 30 adds team DEF +8%, and Lv. 40 makes the whole team invincible. Aggro 400 draws hits that fire the passive, which half the time cuts every enemy's Crit Rate by 15%. Few kits pay off this well once the Skill Cores are in.

The full kit needs skill Lv. 40, which is character Lv. 80 and four Skill Cores, so Ari is a long build. Chemical sits on only 3 of 8 stone lists, and at Speed 104 the shield often goes up after the enemy's first move. Plan the Skill Cores early.

Ari leads GFC: First Move, stunning one target while Muro, Hyde and Tsuki strike, with Defensive Balance giving the front row DEF +20%. In GFC: Outlast, Ari can replace Drax, trading the damage cut for the shield.

Build Ari as soon as a copy lands. The Lv. 20 shield pays off at once, and the Lv. 40 invincible earns its Skill Core in the arena, where damage climbs 15% a round from round 8. Keep a Skill Core ready for it.

Skill unlock ladder

Ari's skills gain extra effects at fixed skill levels. The active skill can't go past half the character's level, and the passive opens at character Lv. 20. Spending Infinity in battle raises the skill level for that fight, so a gated effect can switch on early.

Awakening and dupes cost

License 5 caps Ari at Lv. 200. Each awakening star lifts that cap by 5 and adds a slice of base stats, up to Lv. 225 at 5★. Stars are paid in Ari's own shards, and as an XA-grade character every duplicate pull turns into 50 of them. Awakening is kept if you reset the character with a Migration Core.
