Skill texts, cooldowns and book upgrades are the game's own. "Damage" is the skill's multiplier (for example 4×ATK = four times this champion's ATK, before the target's DEF) - see how damage works.

Suggested build

A starting point worked out from Ruella's own skills - not a hand-tested build. Each line says why it was picked; your gear and team decide the rest. See what stats each champion needs.

PvE

Stat priority

  1. SPD - More turns means more hits.
  2. ACC - To land [Decrease DEF], [Weaken], [Decrease SPD] - a resisted debuff does nothing.
  3. C.RATE - Up to 100%: every crit multiplies the hit.
  4. C.DMG - How much a crit adds - stack it once C.RATE is near 100%.
  5. ATK% - The skills' damage scales from ATK.

Gear set combinations

Blessings

  • Temporal Chains - Speed control for the whole team: slower enemies act less often, which is why it is a staple for support and control champions.
  • Lightning Cage - Rewards teams that fight buffed enemies and gives any attacker a steady source of extra damage.
  • Brimstone - Damage that scales from the target's MAX HP and punishes enemies for using skills; guaranteed at the top level.

Relics

  • Tempus Sanguinis - Makes the wearer's turn-meter reduction effects stronger, for champions that spend their turns pushing enemies back.
  • Mind of Marquat - Hits can place [Fatigue], which slows an enemy's turn meter - useful against enemies that can be fatigued.
  • Diabolical Dice - Can lengthen an enemy skill's cooldown before a single-target attack, and hits harder while enemy skills are cooling down.
