Purrchena's Best Essences

Essences are one of the repeatedly farmable ways to further boost the weapon effects of your Purrchena. Which area and essence you will want to farm will depend on the weapon you are playing, as not all Essences are compatible with every weapon. Essences will increase the stats of your weapon, as well as enhance the passive effect it provides.

Purrchena's Skill Priority

How to Play Purrchena

Purrchena's playstyle seems a bit random, in the very literal sense. Her combo skill has a 1 in 3 chance of either healing herself, throwing a bomb that causes aoe dmg and stagger to the enemy, or pulling enemies together in the area where she threw the gift box. Her ultimate will also randomly reveal either a bomb or a handicraft with a chance that it applies Arts Susceptibility, dealing Physical dmg and additional stagger to the enemy. Her battle skill is similar to Snowshine battle skill, but with a Nature Infliction instead. It does however also apply protection to herself and allies as well as refunding some SP, with even more SP refunded if you parry successfully with it.

While this makes her gameplay a little unreliable, that doesn't mean she is useless by any means, especially if you can make her parry mechanic work reliably to get a big chunk of SP refunded on each use of her Battle Skill.
