Overall
Lyca is a team-wide offensive buffer who opens every fight by bombarding all enemies before briefly pulling herself and same-row allies off the field, buying time while protecting the rest of the team. Her normal attacks reposition her away from danger, hit in lines between multiple targets, and build Star Power stacks on enemies. Once enough stacks accumulate, she removes them to grant all allies an attack boost along with accuracy and magic efficiency. Each cycle of this buff grows stronger than the last. Those stat advantages convert into direct damage — when allies’ accuracy or magic efficiency exceeds an enemy’s defenses, the surplus converts into bonus damage. With her awakening skill active, allies passively gain accuracy and magic efficiency, and all of Lyca’s skills receive enhanced effects and additional damage, making her buff cycles hit harder while feeding even more surplus stats to her team.
