Signature mechanic
Noble Stance glow enhances every attack
Rapid attacks, link attacks and damage skills make Charlotta's sword glow, which enhances everything that follows; the payoff is her Power Strike dive, a high-stun burst finisher. Enforcer of Justice lets a perfectly timed attack block an incoming hit without interruption, so aggressive play is actively rewarded. The I Am Invincible loop chains Power Strike dives while keeping the glow alive.
Charlotta is a mobile character capable of dealing tons of damage with her Noble Stance. A lot of her movesets revolve around her flurry of attacks, then dealing burst damage with her finishers. She has a powerful stun build-up bad dive attack with her skill. She also has access to parries and invincibility innate to her moveset, which grants her both survivability options while dealing heavy damage to enemies, letting her stick close and deal damage.— Game8 tier assessment
Support skills (passives)
Noble Stance
Performing rapid attacks, link attacks, and activating damage skills causes Charlotta's sword to glow, which enhances her attacks.
Enforcer of Justice
Allows Charlotta to block a foe's attack with a perfectly timed attack without being interrupted.
How to unlock
Players may unlock Charlotta by using a Crewmate Card in Siero's Knickknack Shack in a town. You obtain Crewmate Cards by progressing through the main story.
Strengths
- 1
Top-tier damage with high mobility
She sits at the very top of the tier list — huge burst plus a lunge that crosses the arena.
- 2
Attack-as-defence
Perfectly timed attacks parry through hits, so she rarely has to stop attacking to survive.
- 3
Heavy stun contribution
Her dive builds break gauge fast, accelerating the party's damage windows.
Weaknesses
- 1
Timing-dependent
Her ceiling assumes you hit the Noble Strategy parry windows; sloppy play loses a large chunk of damage.
- 2
Awkward on small targets
Dodge-cancelling is required against smaller enemies or her dive whiffs past them.
- 3
Short reach
Tiny hitboxes and a short sword mean repositioning constantly against large bosses.
Gear
Builds by progression stage
Zegagrande Legend — Maniac quests, first Proud attempts
Excellent from the moment you unlock her. Focus on landing full combos before worrying about parry timing.
Sigil priorities — Maniac
Damage cap is the only stat that scales here. Chase any DMG Cap trait you can roll, then critical hit rate, then raw attack.
- DMG Cap — on every sigil you can manage
- Critical Hit Rate — consistency beats spikes
- Stamina / Tyranny — cheap attack scaling
- Charlotta's character sigil (single-trait version)
- Potion Hoarder — more healing per run
- Autorevive — a free second chance
- Improved Dodge — as a secondary trait, not a slot
- War Elemental — the moment a Curio gives you one
Skills to run: Shining Onslaught, Holy Ladder, Valiant Stance, Invincible — the same core carries all the way to endgame.
Gearing priorities
- Ascension or Stinger weapons, fully upgraded before you chase anything rarer
- Unlock every sigil slot via the Mastery tree, then Fate Episodes for the last two
- Any DMG Cap trait you can find — attack stats alone stop mattering fast
- Critical Hit Rate, Stamina and Tyranny to pad raw output
- Potion Hoarder and Autorevive so runs do not end early
Weapons to use
No Terminus yet. Fully upgrade whichever of Charlotta's standard weapons you can forge — the Collection Mastery passives from levelling every weapon matter more right now than which one you hold.

Sigil loadout — Proud endgame
Charlotta's best sigils revolve around improving the damage of her normal attacks and raising their damage cap, primarily with Alpha . Tyranny and Stamina are her main source of attack stats, allowing her to reach the damage cap provided by Gamma and DMG Cap .
Supplemental Damage and Berserker's Echo help her deal additional instances of damage based on her base damage on top of her attacks and skills. For Charlotta's character-specific sigils , it is best to get Grandeur and Warpath , so you have two more sigils that can slot in a sub trait.
As for her utilities and defensive options, choosing Uplift is important to raise the amount of SBA gauge she gains. Potion Hoarder and Autorevive to give herself another chance to fight again if you mess up your combo and fail to dodge an attack.

Once Charlotta has all of her Weapon Transcendance Masteries fully unlocked, she will have 80%-83% Critical Hit Rate without any sigils, traits, or summons. Therefore, she only needs to enable one Master Trait that increases her Critical Hit Rate by 20% to reach 100%, which will give her more room for her Over Mastery Bonus.

Galatine is Charlotta's Terminus Weapon and is her best weapon in the endgame. It has an incredibly high raw attack stat in exchange for lesser maximum HP . It works well with the trait Catastrophe that further boosts Charlotta's attack by 50% and Damage Cap by 100% when max HP is at or below 45,000 HP. She also gains Regen to gradually restore health in battle, and Sigil Booster to increase all her trait levels by 1.
Chaos → Chaos+ → Chaos++, then Defy Infinity
I Am Invincible with the Power Strike dive loop. One of the strongest solo Defy Infinity picks in the game.
Sigil loadout — Fatebreaker
Charlotta's sigils in Endless Ragnarok center around her Master Traits. To get the maximum value out of it, she specifically needs 5 Basic-Stat , 3 Attack , and 2 Defense or Support . This will provide her up to 200% Damage Cap , 100% Attack Boost , 6% Defense , and 20,000 base HP .
We recommend 2 Health and 3 Stun Power for her basic stat sigils. Equipping exactly one Greater Aegis and Aegis boosts her health to 180k–195k without disabling the Catastrophe Nova boost. For attack, always run Fatebreaker , Celestial Lumen , and Celestial Terra to raise her damage cap. Finally, use her defense/support slots for Improved Dodge (for better evades) and Steel Nerves (for damage reduction with Stout Heart).
Prioritize Supplementary DMG and DMG Cap subtraits to boost her damage, and fully utilize her Grandeur and Warpath character-sigils in the endgame. Run Uplift to build her SBA gauge faster, and slot in Autorevive , Guts , and Potion Hoarder for her survivability options. Nimble Onslaught extends the invincibility buff of her perfect dodges. It also lowers the cooldown of her skills and increases her SBA gauge gain.

This distribution considers Master Level 50.
Charlotta's best Master Trait is Crux: I Am Invincible to grant her a powerful buff after Invincible ends. She gains up to 50% Supplementary Damage buff and the duration depends on how much damage she dealt during Invincible. Do take note that you do not need to activate Crux Perk 3 as we want Invincible to end as early as possible to obtain the buff.
As for her Traits, prioritize getting Damage Cap for her skills and unique attacks. You can also get reduced cooldowns , increased duration , and buff strength of her skills. Make sure to equip one Critical Hit Rate +25% . It is also important to activate all traits that provide bonuses based on equipped sigils .
Lastly, enhance her existing perks with traits that increase the Supplementary Damage of Divine Justice, and more attack and damage cap provided by Noble Order.
Execution
Combos & rotation
I Am Invincible Power Strike Dive Combo (Endless Ragnarok)6 steps
- 1Activate both Valiant Stance and Invincible at the start of the fight.
- 2Use Shining Onslaught to close the gap, apply a defense down debuff, and gain Noble Stance (yellow sword and aura).
- 3Launch yourself with Noble Strategy and use her attack to perform a Power Strike Dive.
- 4Perform only one attack to gain Noble Stance, use Noble Strategy, and perform another Power Strike Dive
- 5Repeat the previous step until you need to reposition. Use Power Strike Lunge to get closer to the enemy.
- 6If Noble Order is about to expire, use Holy Ladder. Make sure to hit at least one projectile with it to refresh the buff.
In Endless Ragnarok, Charlotta's Power Strike Dive gains more damage cap than her Power Strike Lunge. Her rotation slightly changes to using Power Strike Dive, which deals significantly more damage than Lunge. She also gains a ton of Supplementary Damage after her invincibility buff ends, making her more deadly once she is vulnerable.
Power Strike Lunge Warpath Combo (Pre-DLC)5 steps
- 1Activate both Valiant Stance and Invincible at the start of the fight.
- 2Use Shining Onslaught to close the gap, apply a defense down debuff, and gain Noble Stance (yellow sword and aura).
- 3Launch yourself with Noble Strategy and use her attack to perform a Lunge Power Finisher. Dodge cancel if the target is small.
- 4Perform only one attack to gain Noble Stance, use Noble Strategy, and perform another Lunge Power Finisher.
- 5Repeat the previous step until you need to reposition, reapply your buffs, or the enemy is dead.
Charlotta's best combo once she has her Warpath character-specific sigil. Instead of relying on skills to obtain Noble Stance, she can instantly get it by performing enhanced normal attacks after her Lunge Power Finisher . Another advantage of this combo is that you can bring in two of her most powerful buffs in the fight, Valiant Stance and Invincible.
Dodge Cancel Against Smaller Targets
If Charlotta is fighting against a smaller enemy, she needs to reposition herself so that her Power Finisher (Lunge) can deal all 5 hits to the enemy.
To do this, you need to let Charlotta jump halfway through when using Noble Strategy, then press dodge in any direction to cancel it . Do not use any directional movement when using Lunge Power Finisher to avoid steering Charlotta away from the enemy.
Perfectly Time Noble Strategy to Parry Attacks
When using Noble Strategy, she can parry any attacks coming her way to negate any damage taken. During her Noble Strategy animation, the parry begins from the ground until she is in the air or when the blue glow on her sword is gone.
If you have Valiant Stance, you will not lose the buff as shown in the video above. Once you have Holy Knight's Grandeur, she will also gain an invincibility and attack buff after parrying .
Use Power Strike Lunge to Travel Long Distance
You can use Noble Strategy and a Power Strike Lunge to travel long distances with ease. Make sure to dodge before she lands to cancel the animation of her landing. This is especially useful when a boss is agile and can move around the arena anywhere they want.
Dodge During Normal Attacks to Reposition
When Charlotta is doing her normal attacks in Noble Stance, you can dodge once, then use her normal attacks again without losing her Noble Stance . You can do this as many times as you want based on how many dodges she can use in a row.
Kit
Skills
Recommended loadout — Shining Onslaught and Invincible
Do take note that this is Charlotta's best skill only when she has the Holy Knight's Warpath Character Sigil. At the start of every fight, you always use Valiant Stance to get a ramping attack buff. Once the enemy stops moving, you can use Invincible to gain up to 15 seconds of invincibility.
Shining Onslaught is her gap closer skill that also inflicts a defense down debuff on enemies, allowing her to deal more damage. Holy Ladder is her projectile skill, but the damage is low . It is only used to launch herself up into the air, cancel it with a dodge after hitting the enemy once , maintain her Noble Stance, and immediately use a finisher.
| Skill | Effect | Applies |
|---|---|---|
| Holy LadderRecommended | Jumps into the air to unleash a whirlwind of long-range slashes. After the last slash, press normal attack or unique attack while airborne for a follow-up attack. | |
| InvincibleRecommended | Grants invincibility to Charlotta. | |
| Königsschild | Grants DMG Cut to Charlotta and nearby allies. | |
| Rising Cut | Charlotta readies her weapon to parry and counter. | |
| Sacred Charge | Redistributes Charlotta's SBA gauge to all allies. | |
| Shining OnslaughtRecommended | A multi-hit lunge attack that inflicts DEF↓ on hit. | |
| Sword of Lumiel | A flurry of slashes that cuts wider and deals more damage the longer Charlotta swings. Hold while activating to continue slashing. | |
| Valiant StanceRecommended | Grants an ATK↑ effect to Charlotta that strengthens over time. She loses the effect upon taking damage. |
Situational swaps: Sword of Lumiel, Holy Ladder, Shining Onslaught, Valiant Stance.If you do not have Holy Knight's Warpath yet, her best skill has Sword of Lumiel instead of Invincible . However, you can swap out Valiant Stance with Invincible if you are constantly getting hit during a fight.

- Gran
Eugen
Cagliostro
Captain will be your tank frontline, using The Substitute Master Trait build to provide shield for the party and absorb damage you take and redirect it to them. Phalanx and Substitute are important skills to bring. If you want Captain to deal damage, then picking Armor Break and Reginleiv is the choice. Otherwise, you can swap Armor Break with Rage , Veil , or Dispel depending on the boss you are tackling.
Eugen will be your ranged backline damage dealer using Flawless Vision Master Trait build to inflict a ton of damage with charged attacks and Detonator. His most important skills are Poison Grenade , Paralyzing Bullet , and Detonator .
Cagliostro will be your other ranged support using her Alchemedic Master Trait build to provide offensive buffs, healing, and shields for the party. Phantasmagoria and Reinforce are important skills to have. Pain Train and Alexandria are low-cooldown damaging skills that allow her to charge her Collapse quickly after use.
