Is Melantha good?

Melantha carries the highest HP and ATK of any 3-star operator, and with the lowest DP cost of any Dreadnought Guard on top of that, she's an easy pick to field early. ATK Up α and her talent stack together to push her damage up close to what higher-rarity Dreadnought Guards put out.

She never gets promoted past Elite 1, though, so eventually operators like Skadi take over her job, even if she stays a useful backup after that.

Strengths

  • Highest HP and ATK of any 3-star operator
  • Lowest DP cost of any Dreadnought Guard
  • ATK Up α and her talent stack to push her damage near higher-rarity levels
  • Fast and cheap to fully level and potential

Weaknesses

  • Locked at Elite 1, so higher-rarity Dreadnought Guards eventually replace her

Profile

Melantha is a female Feline. Her birthday is March 19th, and she stands 161 cm tall. Melantha is voiced by Yue Xin in Chinese, Penelope Rawlins in English, Yuko Hara in Japanese, and Yoon Mi-na in Korean.

Background

A young Feline swordswoman from a rich family of perfumers in Victoria, Melantha used to be a humble, shy and ordinary girl with a penchant for arts and literature until she was struck by Oripathy.

In order to treat her illness, she was forced to leave her comfort zone and went to Rhodes Island.

Here, Melantha is putting her swordsmanship to good use as the captain of Op Reserve Team A4.

Not only she has become a close friend with Cardigan, but also she continues to practice her skill of making fragrant perfume with the help from Lena.

Pain Endurance: How to cope alone in crisis under a huge volume of enemies attacking — one of the exam instructions given by the instructors to their students, and the first Operator called up was Melantha, the best at frontal combat.

One-on-one direct confrontations are very much suited to Melantha displaying her own strength, but malicious combat environments can become a hindrance to her operation.
