New Employee – Nao
Nao is an attempt at a new buffer support. Nao’s kit functions around building up (among other things) an ATK% buff applied and stacked via her special skill.
Nao’s buff has significant overlap with other buffers (e.g. Sky Layfield, Seo Yoon, Awakened Shin Jia), but her high cost paired with her inconsistent buff mechanics prevent her from seeing any use. There is no reason to use Nao over the alternatives.

New Alternium Reactors
Six Wings Na Yubin
Preliminary PVP Rating Change – A—>SSS
Yubin’s reactor pushed him as a close second to Awakened Ecclesia viability-wise. King of PvP is back.
Lulu the Nightmare
Preliminary PVP Rating Change – D—>A
Lulu’s reactor is an extremely strong answer to sleep metagame. While some hypercarry comps will still run Mika
Star, Lulu is now the default choice during Lily/Gremory-based weeks.
Lucid
Preliminary PVP Rating Change – D—>C
Lucid’s reactor shouldn’t make her viable outside of up weeks, but on up she looks like a reasonable lead for olivie comps
