Augusta’s best weapons
Augusta employs a collection of armaments, such as 5-star and 4-star primary weapons. While many of these are obtained by equipping them through gameplay, some are also acquired via gacha. Nonetheless, it’s generally advisable to stick with the default built-in sets. Here’s a summary of her diverse weapon options.
Thunderflare Dominion
Augusta frequently employs the uncommon, 5-star weapon known as Thunderflare Dominion in combat. This weapon complements her abilities. While all of her 5-star weapons offer comparable damage, Thunderflare boasts an attack power (ATK) of 675 and a critical hit rate of 12.1%. Activating either the Intro Skill or Resonance Skill temporarily boosts Heavy Attack Damage by 20% for 15 seconds.
Acquiring a Shield enhances your Heavy Attack, making it bypass 7.2% of the target’s Defense for a duration of 7 seconds, with a maximum of 5 stacks. This advantage activates every 0.5 seconds. What makes this unique is that… it does so frequently and multiplicatively.
Verdant Summit
For this particular item, its strength matches that of her signature weapon, another top-tier option. You’re free to utilize it if you own it. Verdant Summit boosts the Damage Bonus for all Resonance Qualities by 12%. Whenever the Intro Skill or Resonance Liberation is activated, it raises the bonus for Heavy Attack Damage by 24%, with a maximum of two stacks. This effect persists for 14 seconds.
Ages of Harvest
The Ages of Harvest, though seldom used, are a divine boon that bestows a substantial boost to Attribute damage. Activating the Intro Skill instills Ageless Marking, enhancing Resonance Skill damage by up to 48% for 12 seconds. Using the Resonance Skill in turn bestows Ethereal Endowment, also providing a 48% boost to Resonance Skill damage for another 12 seconds.
Lustrous Razor
This character is referred to as a Gacha unit, boasting a base attack of 587 and an additional attack stat bonus of 36.4%. Due to its rarity in the Gacha system, it’s not frequently equipped and often goes under-discussed. It enhances Energy Regeneration by 12.8%. Upon activation of its Resonance Skill, it boosts Resonance Liberation damage by 7%, with a maximum stack of three times. This enhancement lasts for a duration of 12 seconds.
Aureate Zenith
Employing the spell, “Resonance Liberation,” enhances your attack power by 7.2%, 11.1%, 15.1%, 19%, or 23% respectively, and offers a 10.8%, 16.7%, 22.6%, 28.6%, or 34.5% bonus on Heavy Attack damage for a duration of 15 seconds. When choosing to wield mighty weapons, careful deliberation is key.
Autumntra
As a gamer, I’ve got some exciting news! The new 4-star weapon I just scored boosts my attack power significantly. It ramps up my attack by up to 12.8% each time I land a basic or heavy attack, stacking up to five times. This power-up lasts for a solid 7 seconds and I can trigger this effect once every second!
