Tier List Description

(Updated 04/08/22)

New changes makes her more viable than before.

Senya is an interesting unit. She has the highest Attack in the game by far (even more ATK than Gunther, the previous highest-ATK unit), and can’t trigger a Critical Hit. However, she also has a 50% chance when skilled up to not have a Critical Hit land on her, at which point she not only deals extra damage on whoever did that to her, but also buffs up her allies. She can also counterattack once using her s3 and provoke as well. Her passive is also more reliable now, giving barrier to allies and also speed buff to herself.

She seems like a unit that’s at her best in PVP, since in PVE a lot of enemies you face don’t really lean into the whole Critical Hit aspect. In which case, if you want to take her into PVP, a viable strategy would probably include bringing a unit who can increase Critical Hit Resistance (e.g. Choux, Diene, etc.), for the full Crit Resistance.

Build Notes

You’ll want to be building Senya with ATK% and Speed at the priority, but remember to put some HP% and DEF% into her. You want the enemies to attack her, and she can’t do her job if she’s dead, remember that. Effectiveness isn’t really a big issue for her, since DPS units don’t build Resistance, but if you have any leftover stats, you can focus on her Effectiveness. Effect Resistance is a pretty good stat to put on her too, so she’s not debuffed like mad.

A good Senya build is considered to be about:

17,500 HP
4,500+ ATK
1,400 DEF
170-200 Speed
100%+ Resistance

For her unique equipment, option 2 for added barrier strength is a decent choice. For more damage, option 3 is better since it gives her greater attack buff.

RECOMMENDED ARTIFACTS

Spear of a New Dawn

Extra Damage

Senya does a TON of extra damage on this artifact. It's one of the better artifacts to use on her, since it scales very well, and triggers on her s1 (meshes great with her Counter buff). Needs to be +30 skilled up, though.

Elbris Ritual Sword

More Counter

Same reason as building her Counter, sometimes her counterattack buff will get stripped/will expire before she can put it up again.

A Symbol of Unity

More Hit Chance + Damage

[Acquired in Guild Shop] Symbol of Unity, as always, is a very good artifact. If you don't know what to put on Senya, Symbol of Unity is a good default choice, since it's more damage.

Holy Sacrifice

Revival

Holy Sacrifice is just a good Knight artifact, and works on Senya as well. Needs to be +30 skilled up for it to shine its best, though.
