Is Daffodill good?
Daffodill's whole job is breaking enemies fast. Her Basic Attack, Light Prism, adds 20% Break Damage, and her Support Skill, Blade Draw, cuts the enemy's Break cap by 10% under the Discord Cycle Reaction. She builds Resonance stacks whenever a teammate casts their Support Skill, and once she hits two stacks, they convert into Echoes for a big damage payoff.
That makes her heavily dependent on her team's Support Skill casts rather than something you leave active and attacking on her own.
Strengths
- Light Prism and Blade Draw stack meaningful Break damage bonuses
- Resonance converts into a large burst of damage from Echoes
- Ultimate adds Insight to increase Break damage taken further
Weaknesses
- Needs teammates casting Support Skills to build her Resonance
- Not suited to staying active and attacking continuously
