POWERCHART

Karin Stats

Characters Average Stats

PROS & CONS

Strong single target DPS

Has defense break on skill 2

Skill cooldowns decrease by 1 every time she crits

Becomes very good when equipped with Rihanna and Luciella, granting extra turn for more burst damage

Viable in the arena and also PvE content

Squishy since you need to build full offense

Low base defense

Requires critical hit 100% to be very effective

Countered easily by anti-critical buff

Tier List Description

A very strong single target damage dealer. Her kit goes like this:

S2 crit with defense break -> S3 finisher

This usually can kill a lot of squishy targets, especially in the arena. She gets countered hard by Diene’s anti critical hit chance buff. You won’t see too many Karins on PvP defense because she gets killed easily, especially without a CR pusher.

She is also a good Wyvern hunt candidate, but you will want some effectiveness for it to work well consistently. Rhianna and Luciella is the best artifact on her, since she can crit more often and reduce her skill cooldown.

With the AI change to use S2 then S3, she is a big threat if she gets to take a turn.

 

RECOMMENDED ARTIFACTS

Extra Turns
Rhianna and Lucianna is the best artifact that allows her to go multiple turns if it procs at the right time.
PvP
Helps you get that extra burst you need for taking down a target in PvP.
