Tags

Freeze = MPS can fill in freeze trauma to freeze enemies

Domain Resonance = MPS can support World Star valkyries like Sparkle (TFM) Her attacks during Stellar Outburst can detonate Resonance Marks

Harmonized Shadow Star = MPS can support Wheel of Destiny valkyries like Lantern (LDS) and HoHE. During Stellar Outburst, she can’t be switched, but when her avatar is clicked she can be summoned as a phantom (NOT summoned entity)

Best and Worst Use Cases

MPS is best used against:

  1. BIO bosses
  2. Bosses that are weak to Ice damage
  3. Bosses with WoD and WS up weathers if they’re not PSY type
  4. Bosses with shields
⚠️ AR Specialization Weathers
Having correct AR Attributes help in AR Specialization Weathers. MPS, even as leader, could be buffed in WS up weather by 10% because of her AR Attributes. Having team members with Domain Resonance buffs further more.

AVOID using MPS against:

  1. PSY bosses
  2. Bosses that are resistant/immune to Ice damage
  3. Bosses with Fire weather

Teams

Mad Pleasure: Shadowbringer (MPS) is a valkyrie, so she has to be supported by AR valkyries with Harmonized Shadow Star trait, otherwise her potentials aren’t fully unlocked. However, using Rite of Oblivion valkyries CAN work until you get Harmonized Shadow Star valkyries, as they provide general buffs.

As a support, MPS can support Wheel of Destiny and valkyries.

Kindly check the infograph below to know who can be her best supports and which valkyries she can support.

Support Capability

Mad Pleasure: Shadowbringer (MPS) can apply buffs relatively quickly, doesn’t need QTE to apply them, and can start the battle. Consuming is a long process for MPS, though, unless she can hit enemies with ultimate which temporarily stops time.

MPS has better shieldbreaking abilities thanks to her skills. She also tends to be the best supporting valkyrie for Thousand-Faced Maestro: Cameo against QUA enemies (aside Vita LP).
