We’ll focus on team composition, sigils, functors, skills, and aether codes. Athena is a Physical Divine Grace type modifier with a unique mechanic like in rhythm games. The unique mechanic isn’t difficult, but it demands precise timing and rhythm.

Bonus Tips

  • Aether Codes Build Recommendation: We recommend the ‘Brain Dead’ build with 3 Blue Aether Codes and Signature Functor for her. This build grants her a high damage buff and endurance that can be effectively utilized by both manual and AI control. Alternatively, she can opt for the ‘3 Yellow Aether Codes’ build to activate Sound Edge a bit faster and debuff enemies for the team, either without the Signature Functor or with minimal investment.
  • Team Composition Recommendations: Building a team comp for her can be somewhat tricky. Currently, we recommend pairing Athena strictly with Tidal Song Poseidon and her Signature Functor, while including Me-Yow MiMiR Cat-like AI. With this setup, Athena can use the Sound Edge state to last approximately 20 seconds per state duration. Given Athena’s limited ability to clear mobs, she can also be paired with Arctic Abyss Poseidon or Phantasmal Dawn Hera.
  • Athena’s mechanics are not difficult but require precise timing from the player. To truly maximize her potential, players must consider multiple factors. AI-controlled Athena does not require her Signature Functor. However, for manual control, her Signature Functor can alleviate control difficulties and enhance her endurance in battle. If players intend to use her as the primary carry, we recommend either reaching her SS Transcend Level or leveling her Signature Functor to SSS.
  • Conclusion: Athena demands a significant amount of investment and luck with gacha. While a low-investment Athena may deal less damage than Shinri Tsukuyomi or Darkstar Hel, a high Transcend Level Athena with precise timing and control can match their damage output. However, this playstyle can be demanding. For this reason, we still recommend leaving Athena under AI control.
