SSR Chaos Mage DPS
Hiyori is a ranged Chaos Mage built to counter Pride-Lucifer in PvP. She has the highest base ATK (1,683) and Crit Rate (57%) in the entire game. Her ult strips ALL shields off the target then slams them for 1060% ATK Chaos DMG with +114% Crit Rate on top -- basically deletes Pride-Lucifer's whole shield gimmick on the spot. Passive gives 26.5% extra damage to anyone with a shield, and when you break one it pops a 679.8% ATK AOE explosion. Mostly a PvP unit since shield-heavy comps are everywhere in arena, especially Lucifer teams. Needs at least A1 (ignore 74% DEF on ult) to really do her job against Lucifer.

Team Synergy
Good Teammates:
GaiaPride-LuciferOther Chaos charactersMorgan Le FayGluttony - Beelzebub
Hiyori is squishy so she needs to either survive long enough to ult or get her ult out super fast. Gaia is the best partner -- her passive gives the lowest DEF ally (Hiyori) 60% bonus HP and a revive on lethal damage, which means Hiyori gets a second chance to pop her ult. Running Lucifer on the same team gives her extra shield protection and activates the Chaos team skill. For energy, Morgan Le Fay or Gluttony-Beelzebub help charge her ult faster so she can blow up before dying. The idea is: protect Hiyori -> charge ult fast -> blow up the enemy shields -> win.
