"textContent": "Lacrimosa is the S-Rank Chaos main DPS added to Neverness to Everness in the 1.1 update, and she carries fights by stacking a Nightmare damage-over-time effect that scales off her attack. She can also copy an enemy's combat technique, which makes her flexible enough to slot into several team shapes. The build below locks her in as a DoT carry inside a Discord composition.\n\nš¹\n\nQuick answer: Equip The Last Rose Arc, the four-piece Diabolos Cartridge, and run her with Sakiri, Haniel, and Daffodill (or Fadia) to maximize Chaos DoT and Discord burst.\n\n* * *\n\n### Best Arcs for Lacrimosa\n\nThe Last Rose is her signature Arc and the clear first pick. It hands out a flat attack boost and feeds CRIT DMG every time she deals damage over time, then extends an enemy's Broken state when she hits them. The two alternatives trade some of that crit ceiling for raw attack uptime or faster Ultimate charging.\n\nRank| Arc| Core effect\n---|---|---\n1st| The Last Rose| +14% ATK. Each DoT instance grants a Chaos Thorn stack worth +6% CRIT DMG for 3s, up to 10 stacks. A Redirect Skill grants 10 stacks at once. Extends a Broken enemy's Break by 3s on hit.\n2nd| Fluff of Fleetness| +5% ATK every 1s while she is the active character, up to 5 stacks. Resets when she leaves the field.\n3rd| Mind Royale| Grants 10 Ultimate Energy when she casts a Redirect Skill. Triggers at most once every 20s.\n\nIf you do not have access to the gacha Arcs, Shiny Days is a solid free option from the Arc shop. It adds Break Intensity and a 10% damage increase against Broken enemies.\n\nImage credit: Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@Gacha Gamer)\n\n* * *\n\n### Best Cartridge: Diabolos set\n\nDiabolos is built for Chaos carries, so it is the default armor set for Lacrimosa. The four-piece bonus shreds Chaos resistance, and because she lives inside Nova and Scorch reactions, she gets the full ignore value during her burst windows.\n\nRank| Cartridge| Effects\n---|---|---\n1st| Diabolos| Epic (2): Chaos DMG +10%. Legendary (4): Ignores 12% of enemy Chaos RES, rising to 24% for 20s after she joins a Nova or Scorch reaction.\n2nd| Shadow Creed| Epic (2): ATK +10%. Legendary (4): +25% ATK for 20s after casting a Skill, for up to 35% total.\n3rd| Quiet Manor| Epic (2): Mental DMG +10%. Legendary (4): +12% Mental DMG per Basic Attack, up to 3 stacks lasting 6s each.\n\nFor the Cartridge main stat, pick Chaos DMG Boost when you run The Last Rose, since the Arc already supplies plenty of CRIT. Without it, default to CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG depending on your Module substats.\n\nImage credit: Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@Gacha Gamer)\n\n* * *\n\n### Module layout and stat priority\n\nWith Diabolos, run a Type II, two Type III, and a Type IV Module to satisfy the four-piece set, then use a Type III bonus Module for an extra 10% Chaos DMG. That totals roughly +40% Chaos DMG before substats. Because her Nightmare DoT scales off attack, do not neglect raw ATK while chasing crit.\n\nSlot| Setting\n---|---\nCartridge| Diabolos (Type II / III / III / IV)\nBonus Module| Type III (+10% Chaos DMG)\nMain stat| CRIT Rate or Chaos DMG Boost\nSubstat priority| CRIT Rate ā

\n\n* * *\n\n### Skill upgrade priority\n\nHer Ultimate, Working Day Judgement, and her Skill, Morning Tomato, do the heavy lifting and should level first. Sweet and Sour (Basic Attack) and Microwake (Support Skill) come later.\n\nSkill| Type| Priority\n---|---|---\nWorking Day Judgement| Ultimate| ā

Tempered Glass Judgement is the top pick because it protects her DoT from being cleared by healing, restores her HP, and chips away the target's Max HP. After that, prioritize the nodes that raise Nightmare's damage ratio and duration.\n\nOrder| Awakening| What it does\n---|---|---\n1st| Tempered Glass Judgement| Reduces target Max HP on Nightmare damage, heals her, and keeps Nightmare alive through healing.\n2nd| Clock Out Clemency| Raises the Nightmare DMG ratio.\n3rd| Almighty Lord of Tomatoes| Extends Nightmare duration to 6s.\n4th| Molten Ice Cream| Detonates all stacked Nightmare on a full Basic Attack combo.\n5th| Morning Spell| Auto-casts her Support Skill and triggers the cycle without Cycle Energy after a Redirect Skill.\n6th| Rise and Shine| +15% damage for 15s when she swaps in with a Support Skill.\n\nā ļø\n\nNote: If you only own a couple of Awakenings and your team is not built around Cycle reactions, A1, A4, and A5 together can outperform A6 for her personal damage.\n\nImage credit: Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@Gacha Gamer)\n\n* * *\n\n### Best Lacrimosa teams\n\nLacrimosa peaks in a DoT-focused Discord team, so pair her with Incantation supports and a Psyche unit to keep Nova, Scorch, and Discord cycling. The core build slots Sakiri as the priority buffer because she increases the DoT the team deals, Haniel as the Psyche representative for Nova application and team heals, and a final flex pick for Break or survivability.\n\nRole| Unit| Job\n---|---|---\nMain DPS| Lacrimosa| Stacks Nightmare DoT and burst, triggers Discord enhancement.\nSupport| Sakiri (or Adler)| Incantation buffer that boosts DoT taken and applies Scorch.\nSub-DPS| Haniel| Psyche unit that applies Nova and drains enemy ATK to the team.\nFlex| Daffodill or Fadia| Daffodill for fast Breaks, Fadia for added survivability.\n\nDaffodill earns the flex slot when you want the Discord triple-cycle to land harder. Her Blade Draw lowers the enemy's Break cap, setting up a Broken-plus-Discord window. In that state, Lacrimosa's Tomato Banquet enhancement deals extra damage equal to 400% of her ATK against an already-Broken target.\n\nImage credit: Perfect World Games (via YouTube/@Gacha Gamer)\n\n* * *\n\n### Combat rotation\n\n**Step 1:** Open with Haniel to buff the team, then swap to your Incantation support, ideally Sakiri, and apply their buffs.\n\n**Step 2:** Build Cycle Energy with the support, then swap to Lacrimosa to trigger Scorch on entry.\n\n**Step 3:** Cast her Skill, run her Basic Attack combo to its final hit to stack Nightmare, then fire her Ultimate when it is available.\n\n**Step 4:** While Scorch is still active and her Cycle Energy is full, swap to a Psyche character to apply Nova, which triggers Discord, drops the enemy Break bar, and fires her Discord burst. Repeat the loop.\n\nš\n\nTip: Swap one of her recorded skills in before combat, and switch between her Melee and Ranged modes depending on whether you are clearing minions or pressuring a single elite.\n\nYou will know the build is working when Nightmare stacks visibly tick on enemies, her Chaos Thorn stacks climb from The Last Rose, and Discord triggers shave the Break gauge while landing the bonus Tomato Banquet hit on Broken targets. Keep Scorch and Nova rolling so Diabolos keeps ignoring enemy Chaos resistance, and Lacrimosa will hold up as a top-tier Chaos carry through version 1.1.",
