How to Play Etia
Etia plays as a Back Fire unit with the Passion (情熱) emblem. Back-line mage or shooter who self-charges Passion for consistent skill uptime.

- Element coverage — Fire matches certain Calamity weaknesses; swap Etia when defense element charts demand it.
- Emblem loop — Passion self-charges on action; no battery required.
- Skill priority — level Etia's stance skills before off-element flex units; SSR skill scaling defines clear speed.
- Synergy — Eldorana allies listed below often share buff routes or aesthetic team themes.

How to Find Etia in the Game

- Formation screen — Frontline Base → Formation. Owned units show stance, element and emblem icons.
- Character album — greyed portrait means seen but not recruited; full color means owned.
- Gacha details — banner rate-up lists show whether the unit is currently featured.
- Wiki cross-ref — compare Etia's stats table on this page with the full character database.
- Tavern roster — recruited girls appear here for bond and shift assignment.
04
How to Protect Your Etia
Protect your investment in Etia by understanding availability (Standard gacha pool) and spending materials only when the unit fits your 10-slot plan. SSR dupes and gear locks are expensive — confirm role before maxing.
- Availability lock-in — standard pool units can be duplicated over time.
- Account link — bind DMM after roster settles; unlinked saves are lost on device failure.
- Material funnel — feed SSR upgrade stones to Etia only after Front/Back cores are covered.
- Gear locks — lock good stat rolls before foddering duplicate equipment.
- Reroll caution — account deletion wipes all progress; finish rerolling before investing bond gifts.
05
How to Complete Etia
Completing Etia's build means leveling skills, securing gear with the right stat rolls, and hitting bond milestones for permanent stat points. Etia is a Fire / Back / Passion (情熱) unit — every upgrade choice should reinforce that role.
| Milestone | Advice |
|---|---|
| Level & skills | Priority SSR — max stance skills for defense |
| Gear focus | Attack, crit, skill damage |
| Bond track | Lv1 unlocks tavern shifts; mid levels grant permanent stat points — breadth beats one maxed favorite |
| Duplicate value | Dupes raise skill cap — worth gems only on S+ tier units |
| Exploration | Deploy in idle teams for loot while defense team rests — doubles account efficiency |
