Explanation
Fia is greater than the sum of her parts – a mobbing specialist with enough burst to compete with Water’s best DPS units. She requires more micromanagement than even Nina, but this shouldn’t deter you – she has similar timing flexibility, and arguably better mobbing. Note that her damage contribution is heavily dependent on getting fully charged Kyllo actives. The best method for making sure you get this is to place your Kyllo marks in the center of the map; make sure you have at least three in store for the last three turns, as you’ll lose out on damage otherwise.
In any event, Fia is very strong – tied with Bethel and BT3 Nina for second-best DPS in water, and even competitive with Azure at MBT. Her numbers are deceptive – her overall contribution is greatly aided by the damage bonuses she provides to her teammates and her quirky equipment.
