Is Psyche good?

Psyche is at her best inside Flamboyance, her ultimate state that grants flight and her ranged Consonance Weapon for heavy damage while dodging melee attacks entirely. Landing crits stacks up self-buffs, and since she runs at low HP most of the time, she gets good value out of the Resolve stat.

Outside that ultimate window her damage drops off noticeably though.

Pairs well with: Fushu; Fina.

Strengths

  • Flamboyance grants flight and a powerful ranged weapon
  • Crit hits build up self-buffs
  • Gets strong value from the Resolve stat at low HP

Weaknesses

  • Damage falls off outside her Flamboyance state

Skills

  • Chrysalis Dreamweave

    Skill

    Creates 1 [Phantasm] and then flashes forward. This skill can be used at any time without interrupting Psyche's current action. In [Flamboyance] state, this skill is replaced with [Phototaxis]. Phantasm: Once created, the Phantasm continuously slows down nearby enemies. After 5 seconds, it deals Anemo Damage to nearby enemies and vanishes. When a new [Phantasm] is created, the existing [Phantasm] immediately deals Anemo Damage and vanishes. Phototaxis: Charges forward in the air and releases 16 [Ethereal Powders]. The [Ethereal Powders] automatically lock onto 1 enemy, dealing Anemo Damage and inflicting 1 stack of [Powder Stigma], up to 12 stacks. Powder Stigma: When a target afflicted with [Powder Stigma] takes Ranged Weapon DMG from [Psyche], 1 stack of [Powder Stigma] is consumed to deal Anemo Damage.

  • Fluorescent Eclosion

    Ultimate

    Enters [Flamboyance] state and gains the ability to fly. When in [Flamboyance] state, Psyche can only use skills and shoot. [Flamboyance] state continuously consumes Sanity, and when Sanity drops to 0 or this skill is used again, [Flamboyance] state ends. When Psyche's HP percentage is above 15%, [Flamboyance] state consumes HP instead of Sanity. The consumed HP will be converted into Ultra Shield at a certain percentage.
