Etheria Restart Luvia & Qano Guide: Skills Breakdown & Meta Analysis

Etheria Restart introduces two new characters, Luvia and Qano. Luvia is an intelligence officer at E.O.S. Security and Defense Agency, but she actually works for the powerful, behind-the-scenes family: O.N.E.T. Qano is a high-ranking agent belonging to E.O.S. Secret Security Force.

Today, we'll delve into Etheria Restart archives to examine Luvia and Qano, going beyond just their surface stats to analyze their skill sets and combat potential.

Let's look at their stats and attributes to provide some insights.

Luvia

At max level, Luvia has an SPD of 127, which is quite high. She has above-average health and decent defense. Her stats aren't outstanding, making her more of a tank character. Her strengths include Increased Effect RES and Effect ACC Increase.

Skill 3: Deathcycle

Deathcycle grants all allies a two-turn speed boost. Deals 360 damage to all enemies. The damage is low, but it always applies Exile effect to the primary target for two turns, with a 100% chance to reduce the speed of all targets.

An Exile unit is considered removed from the battlefield and is unaffected by any damage or effects. This effect is removed if the unit survives, or if the only surviving unit on the field is Exile unit. This effect cannot be applied when there is one or fewer enemies remaining. This effect cannot be applied to monsters.

Deathcycle skill cooldown is fixed at level four, so you should use Etheria Restart Crystals to max it out to reduce this crucial cooldown.

Skill 2: Veiled Thorn

Luvia deals two 150% damage attacks to all enemies. Each attack has a 75% chance to dispel one buff from the target and a 100% chance to apply one stack of Witherbloom.

Witherbloom heals for 18% of Luvia's maximum health. When the effect wears off naturally, it deals indirect true damage equal to the remaining unabsorbed healing. It cannot be cleansed. The duration cannot be changed.

Assuming we stack her health to 50,000, multiplying by 18%, this skill will heal Luvia for 9,000 of her maximum health. When the effect wears off naturally, it deals direct or indirect actual damage equal to the remaining unabsorbed healing.

The description mentioning indirect actual damage is likely to avoid triggering effects like Veiled Thorn stacks.

A single Witherbloom stack doesn't specify its duration, but it should last one turn.

Skill 1: Hex Petal

Luvia deals 240% damage to a single enemy and has a 100% chance to apply 1 stack of Witherbloom. It doesn't specify how many stacks you can get.

Therefore, Deathcycle deals very low damage; her main function is Exile. Veiled Thorn and Hex Petal are her primary damage sources.

For equipment, you should equip her with items that increase speed. You can equip her with Speed ​​Bow and adjust accordingly. Alternatively, you can use Blood Bath Bop, which also works well, bringing her speed to around 290. There are many ways to develop her in Etheria Restart, but I think the best way is definitely to make her incredibly fast, allowing her to rush in and eliminate enemies.

Qano

Qano's base speed is 121, which is average in Etheria Restart. Her attack power is high, and her health is decent for a damage-dealing class. Prowess includes Increased CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG .

Skill 3: Shadow Fracture

Qano deals three 100% damage attacks to all enemies. The final attack always applies one stack of Fracture. This skill also increases damage dealt to the primary target by 5%. After attacking, gain one turn of Void. This damage value isn't particularly high.

Each stack of Fracture increases Qano's damage dealt to the target by 20%. It can stack up to 3 times. It cannot be cleansed. At the start of the third skill, you do not receive any buffs from Fracture itself.

Therefore, the first use of the third skill is simply to grant you Void effect. Void increases effect resistance by 100%. It helps you avoid being the primary target of enemy skills and reduces damage taken by groups by an additional 50%.

Skill 2: Reaping

Qano deals 360% damage to a single enemy. Damage increases by 1% for every 1% of health the target loses. When the target is killed, Qano's turn bar increases by 60%. He then triggers his passive skill, resetting all statuses and entering stealth.

Damage increases by an additional 1% for every 1% of health the target loses. This is your primary method for killing enemies, reducing your cooldown time. Fracture effect also stacks with his second skill, helping Qano easily deal higher damage.

Skill 1: Jade Slash

Qano deals 240% damage to a single enemy and has a 40% chance to inflict a 2-turn attack power reduction status. When dealing damage, for every 1 point of attack power Qano has above the target, his damage increases by an additional 0.025%, up to a maximum of 75%. Defeating an enemy resets all skills.

Equipping Qano with Void set is a good choice; items that stack health are also viable, ensuring his survivability. It depends on your playstyle, and you can adjust your strategy accordingly.

Overall, both Luvia and Qano have distinct mechanics and characteristics. Hopefully, this in-depth analysis will help you quickly master the new characters in Etheria Restart.
