The Ultimate Guide to Mastering Eternity in Reverse: 1999
Eternity's Role and Abilities
Eternity is a 6-star Mineral DPS character.
What sets her apart is her self-healing capability.
Key Skills and Ultimate
Odd Story in Exeter (Ultimate)
- Damage: 300% reality damage to all enemies.
- Leech Rate: Heals 50% of the damage dealt (known as Leech Rate).
- Advanced Tip: The more damage you pack into this skill via buffs or high attack stats, the more you'll heal.
Purse of Vigor and Antique Fan (Skills)
- Damage: A Single Target and an AOE skill respectively that reduce Eternity's HP to deal Reality damage
- Debuff: Purse of Vigor also inflicts Nasty Wound to an enemy, which means their healing capabilities will be 50% weaker.
Blood of Longevity and Blood of Immortality (Passives)
When Eternity reaches Insight 3, her passive Blood of Longevity makes her a DPS monster:
- Damage and Healing Boost: Each stack increases damage dealt and damage healed by 5%
- Stacking Mechanic: Accumulates every turn, converting into Blood of Immortality at 5 stacks
- Status Immunity: When Blood of Immortality is active damage dealt and healed increase by 25% and gains immunity to Stats Down (which cannot be dispelled)
Building the Perfect Team for Eternity
Team Options: Who Makes Eternity Shine?
Support Teammates
Pickles: AP generous, buffs the whole team and deals considerable damage.
Bkornblume: Best Reality Damage support, she applies potent debuffs that reduce enemy Reality defenses and increase damage taken.
Sonetto: She increases Eternity's damage output and aso reduces the damage Eternity takes.
An-an Lee: Excellent for boosting damage and enhancing incantations. She can even make Eternity's regular cards powerful.
Shielder Options
Bette: Provides a shield and enhances Eternity's cards. After using her ultimate, Bette gives +1 Moxie to the ally with the lowest Moxie, potentially Eternity.
Ms. NewBabel: Offers large shields. Particularly good if you're focusing solely on Eternity as she already has self-healing.
Healer Options
Medicine Pocket: A straightforward choice for tons of survivability.
Balloon Party: Provides a unique damage reduction balloon and adds an additional layer of utility.
The Right Psychubes for Eternity
Must-Have Psychubes
- Hopscotch: Boosts your damage, making your leech more effective.
- His Bounden Duty: Recovers HP upon defeating enemies, an excellent synergy with her leech ability.
Secondary Choices
- Brave New World: Increases incantation power after using the ultimate but can be suboptimal depending on your build.
- Yearning Desire: Good synergy with one of Eternity's skills, dealing more damage when an enemy has negative status effects.
More Psychube Options: Beyond the Basics
- Her Second Life: Adds an additional layer of self-healing, making Eternity almost immortal when combined with her leech.
- Laughter and Laughter: Extra healing done for Eternity's ability kit while providing damage reduction.
Resonance: Amplifying Her Powers
Core Resonance Stats
- Attack: This is a no-brainer. Eternity's leech ability scales directly with her damage. More attack equals more healing.
- Reality Damage: Since her skills are based on reality damage, increasing this stat makes both her damage and healing more potent.
Optional Resonance Stats
- Critical Rate & Damage: If you're looking to maximize her damage output, adding some critical rate and damage can be a game-changer.
- HP: Although not a primary focus, more HP ensures that she can withstand hits, especially since she loses 10% of her HP when attacking.
Final Thoughts: Should You Pull for Eternity?
Eternity shines in survivability and is a strong DPS unit.
If your roster lacks a self-sufficient DPS or you're building a specific team that could benefit from her skills, she's definitely worth pulling for.
