Ferry (Grand)/Strategy

Ratings

Overview

Ferry is a support/ debuffer/ healer. And she is definitely potent in all of those three aspects. Debuff-wise, she offers a "single-sided" ATK DownATK is lowered
and DEF DownDEF is lowered
that caps both in combination with  Miserable MistInflict 25% ATK DownATK is lowered

Strength: 25%Base Accuracy: 80%Duration: 180 secondsStacking: Dual on all foes. and a dispel effect on top of that. Support-wise, she is able to support the entire team with a Charge Bar +Instantly boosts Charge Bar by
, a Charge Attack buff similar to that of an Ultima weapon (i.e. Dark ATK UpDark ATK is boosted
and DA UpDouble attack rate is boosted
), and a bonus damage support skill when foes are inflicted with Ghost CageCage shatters when the foe uses a special attack (Plain DMG to all foes upon shattering) (Can't be removed)
Local status effect. She also provides a powerful single-target buff with decent uptime, FreigeistDouble attack rate is boosted / Triple attack rate is boosted / More likely to be attacked / Charge attack DMG is boosted / Charge attack DMG cap is boosted / Charge bar gain is boosted / Recovers once from a knockout while in effect (Can't be removed)
, which greatly boosts the Charge Attack abilities of the target by giving multiattack, Charge Bar gain, C.A. Specs and a very valuable effect Tri-SlashAttacks 3 times each turn
from the second cast onwards. Finally, as a healer, she is good at keeping your team healthy, with a 1500 HP heal, RevitalizeRecover HP each turn. Boost to charge bar if HP is full.
, light and dark damage reduction and autorevive to the Freigeist target.

While she does have a great deal of utility, just like all mainly supportive characters, she does not have anything that specifically enhances her own damage. Fortunately, she shines the most in teams that either has a decent amount of teamwide buffs (such as  NutrientsAll allies gain StrengthATK is greatly boosted based on how high HP is
Strength: 45%-15%Duration: 3 turns and Recovery Cap Boosted (1000)Recovery cap is boosted
Strength: 1000Duration: 3 turns.) or is mainly focused on Charge Attacks.

In conclusion, Ferry (Grand) is a very versatile character that can and will fit into most Dark compositions. While her best spot is on Stamina/ Charge Attack centric teams that can also make use of her Dagger proficiency, placing her on Enmity teams can still be a good choice due to the many benefits that she provides.
