Zhao Lianyi

Intro

Noble Daughter Zhao Lianyi has returned to the Continent! Join Lucia now to learn more about the Hero~

Zhao Lianyi is the eldest daughter of the local noble, Zhao family. As their only child, she was terribly spoiled, resulting in her arrogant and snobbish character. She's prideful, her disdain for lowly peasants comes from her pre-conceived notion that the commonfolk don't work hard enough to turn their lives around. Although she looks delicate, Lianyi is an expert in business and commerce. However, as the Zhao family lost their footing among the court infighting, so did Lianyi lose her luxurious lifestyle. In order to recover her family's status and return to her original lavish lifestyle, she chose to join the Commander, seeking opportinities to make a profit. "Lowly peasants, kneel."

Once, there was an immortal so fond of liquor who squandered his entire fortune for wines. In a desperate bid to acquire a jar of the legendary "Drunken Tale," he compiled all his knowledge into a manual and handed it to a local farmer. It eventually found its way into the Zhao family's library and, on the day tragic fire befell the Zhao estate, was taken by the eldest Zhao daughter.

Zhao Lianyi　Battle of Wits > Thunder Strike The MDEF Lock-on effect from Battle of Wits allows Zhao Lianyi to center all her attacks on the weakest enemy. Without proper protection, the enemy DPS can be quickly taken down by Zhao Lianyi's high single-target hits.
Miranda　Tactical Vision > Bait Trap Miranda can provide an extra single-target active skill, further boosting Zhao Lianyi's MDEF lock-on effect. Bait Trap is also a skill with Lock-on effect that can make up for the window when Zhao Lianyi's skill does not activate.
Catherine　Guarding Light > Merciful Heart Catherine can protect Brigade 1 with her Bless skill, while her targeted HP Recovery helps keep the DPS in a healthy state.
Alternative Comps

Alternatively, try the team compositions below: Zhao Lianyi + Raphael + Tachibana Chiyo Both Zhao Lianyi and Raphael can inflict decent MDEF debuffs on the enemies, preventing them from withstanding Zhao Lianyi's attacks. Combined with Tachibana Chiyo's buffs on both PDEF and MDEF, the team will be able to close out the battles early.

Lucia's Summary

As a traditional Magic DPS, Zhao Lianyi’s attack pattern is straightforward, but when in different team setups, she performs well in various situations. Whether focusing on single-target nukes or acting as a sub-DPS to support her teammates, Zhao Lianyi has what it takes to shine on the battlefields now.
