GUIDEMechanics and How to Use

At a Glance

A Bleed attacker that grows the special Charge, Corpus Ingredient, to 3 Potency to improve Bleed application, then triggers S2's follow-up against enemies carrying 5 types of negative effect.

Core Mechanics

  • Corpus Ingredient and Artwork: Tibia: Through the always-active passive Magnum Opus: Tibia, Count increases by 5 at the end of a skill that dealt damage (+3 if the target dies). Each time he spends a cumulative 10 Count, he gains 1 Corpus Ingredient Potency. At Potency 2, he gains Artwork: Tibia, activating +1 Base Power (the Potency 1+ effect) and +10% damage against enemies with Bleed (the 2+ effect) at that point; at 3, +1 to Bleed Potency and Count inflicted is added. At Potency 1, Tibia has no effect yet.
  • S3 — Tibia's Melody - Anatomization of the Unanatomized by the Anatomized: With at least 10 Corpus Ingredient Count, spends up to 20 to enhance itself, making all Coins Unbreakable Coins. Attack Weight also increases with Corpus Ingredient Potency. Because it spends a lot at once, it is a way to reach Potency 3.
  • S2 Gather Ingredient - Blood-bathed Objet's follow-up: Deals more damage based on the number of different negative effects on the target, and at 5 or more types, follows up with Installation Art no. 3: Improvised Ribcage on Coin Ⅲ hit, once per turn.
  • Defense skill — Curating the Exhibition: Gains 1 Assist Defense at Combat Start, and when an ally is attacked one-sidedly, covers them with the clashable counter Please. Vandalism is Prohibited. The counter also counts as a skill that gains Corpus Ingredient Count.
  • Closing Time: Through the passive Transcend the Corpus (unlocked at Uptie Ⅲ), when Viewing the Tableau (21 on appearing; decreases by 2 at Turn End and by 1 when a Ring ally uses a skill, the latter once per turn per Identity) reaches 0, one attack skill becomes a 5-Coin big hit on the next turn, once per battle. It takes time before it can be fired.

How to Use

Stack negative effects with S1 Anatomize and S2, and land S2 on enemies with 5 or more types to trigger the follow-up. Build Corpus Ingredient Count, and fire S3 at the moment its spending reaches Potency 3 to gain Tibia's Bleed infliction bonus early. Protect allies with his Defense skill's Assist Defense while cycling Count through counters. Treat Closing Time as a bonus trump card that comes sooner in long fights with more Ring allies.
