This is Caren, a former Irregular Researcher. Once she sought ways to stand against the Irregulars through her research, but regrettably, she met her end without being able to correct the mistakes humanity had made in the past. Yet, some ties of fate are not so easily severed. She encountered the Irregulars again in Mirsha and began crafting plans for a decisive battle against them. Soon, you too may stand on the same frontlines as Caren, facing a common enemy. And when that time comes, I will fight by your side, Master, as always.

Final CleanupDisassembly AnalysisTheory Refutation

Skill up rule of thumb:

  • Level 2 for Weakness Gauge damage
  • Effect chance, effect duration & cooldown reductions.
  • Damage increases (DPS only)

Chain passive can be left at level 2 until much later, the Weakness Gauge damage increase at level 5 is the only interesting part, so you can save skill manuals here until the more important skills are taken care of.
