Skills and abilities

Passive/potential

• 1*: Undertaker's Gift - When the controlled operator with Hypothermic Perfusion performs a Final Strike that hits the enemy, it deals another 20% DMG and 5 Stagger.
• 2*: Absolute Zero Armament - Strength +20, Cryo DMG Dealt +10%.
• 3*: Overlord of Winter - Combo skill Winter's Devourer and ultimate Vigil Services improved: DMG multiplier increased to 1.15 times the original.
• 4*: Sincere Wake - Ultimate Vigil Services improved: Ultimate Energy cost -15%.
• 5*: Winter is Returning - When the controlled operator with Hypothermic Perfusion performs a Final Strike that hits the enemy, return another 5 SP; pursuit attack DMG Multiplier of the Mirage created by the skill is also increased to 1.2 times the original.

Basic attack sequence - Dance of Rime

• Basic attack: An attack with up to 4 sequences that deals Cryo DMG. As the controlled operator, Final Strike also deals 25 Stagger.
• Dive attack: Basic attack performed in mid-air becomes a dive attack that deals Cryo DMG to nearby enemies.
• Finisher: Basic attack performed near a Staggered enemy becomes a finisher that deals massive Cryo DMG and recovers some SP.

Battle skill - Esoteric Legacy of Ses'qa

• Performs a Hypothermic Perfusion on the controlled operator's weapon and returns some SP. The next Final Strike performed by the currently controlled operator within a certain duration creates Last Rite's Mirage that unleashes a pursuit attack at the target. This attack deals Cryo DMG and applies Cryo Infliction. When the controlled operator is Last Rite herself, casting this battle skill does not reset her basic attack sequence.

Combo skill - Winter's Devourer

• Combo trigger: When an enemy has 3 or more Cryo Infliction stacks.
• Creates an icicle on the target enemy and shatters it to consume all Cryo Infliction stacks of the said enemy. The number of Cryo Infliction stacks consumed determines the amount of Cryo DMG dealt to the enemy and Ultimate Energy gained by the caster.

Ultimate skill - Vigil Services

• Last Rite encases herself in frost armor and creates an ice scythe to perform 3 slashes, and gains immunity to all damage while this state is active. Each slash deals massive Cryo DMG. Last Rite can only gain Ultimate Energy from her own battle skill and combo skill.

• Cryogenic Embrittlement:  Ultimate Vigil Services improved: When the ultimate deals DMG to an enemy with Cryo Susceptibility, the effect of that Cryo Susceptibility is 1.2/1.5 times the original.
• Outfitting: Activate this to let the operator equip blue/purple/gold quality gear

Team synergy and role

Last Rite is a good character for the Cryo team - she can be the controlled operator too. She can have good synergy with characters who apply Cryo Infliction, and if you can pull Yvonne and Xaihi too, this can be a top-tier combo.

• Yvonne (Cryo)
• Xaihi (Cryo)
• Gilberta (Nature)
• Snowshine (Cryo)
• Estella (Cryo)

Is Last Rite worth using?

If you have some Cryo characters, she is definitely worth using. I believe she can be top-tier with upgraded gear and with a good weapon. The Cryo team needs to apply a lot of Cryo Infliction for her to deal massive damage, and you also need to use her so she can recover SP.

Overall, I think she is definitely worth using!
