## Hero Guide

Roxy of Madness was released on April 4th, 2023. This Roxy introduced a new skill into the game named “Unity”. Unity essentially works similarly to “Grace” but with a twist. Roxy is a huge benefit to human allies allowing them to land additional damage if a critical strike occurs.

Roxy has incredible value if you do happen to obtain her. Roxy has amazing offensive stats and universal use in Demonic Beast Battles and PVP but with a trade-off of low defensive stats. Even if you do not plan on using Roxy on the front, you still have the choice to use her for her Unity skill instead.

### Pros

* Powerful unit for Demonic Beast Battles
* Roxy is not restricted to any type of content
* High offensive stats

### Cons

* Needs dupes to enhance the Unity effect
* Unity can only benefit Human units
* Human allies need to land a critical strike in order to utilize Roxy’s passive and the after damage effect only applies if done with a single attack skill so human heroes with AOE attacks will not benefit from it

## Skill Review

**Crazy Blade** - This is Roxy’s main damaging card being a single target card for her passive and can deal massive damage with the combination of Flood, passive, and Unity skills.

**Flame Grinder** - Flame Grinder is an AOE attack skill with the damaging effect being Spike. This attack skill does average damage but can assist you in wiping mobs or baiting out dodge food and similar cases.

**Horrific Vengeance** - This is Roxy’s Ultimate skill that is a straightforward high-damage attack skill. It does come with the effect of Sever so it helps in ensuring you land a critical strike on your enemy to activate Roxy’s passive and score you that extra damage.

**I’ll Chop You Up** - Roxy’s passive (unique) skill that only affects humans and can have some confusion to it. A common confusion about her passive is that yes Roxy is affected by her own passive. This means you can get a whopping 120% critical chance to Roxy’s stats with two other humans on the field. Another confusion is how is Roxy’s extra damage determined. In short, this is based on Roxy’s raw attack stat and to further increase this is through cosmetics, gear, and constellation.

**Unity of Madness** - Unity works the same way as a Grace does, slap Roxy as a link and the affected ally gains the Unity effect. The catch is that it only works for Human heroes so units like Mael or Meliodas can not gain the Unity skill from Roxy. A unique thing about is that Roxy can also benefit from a Grace, so for example using Roxy and then linking her with Red Sariel Roxy can have her Unity skill and Sariel’s Grace.

## Gear Recommendation

The gear sets recommended for Roxy will be Attack and Critical Damage gear. Since Roxy is an all-out damage dealer, has an insane critical chance rate, and her passive is based on her attack these gear sets are perfect for her. You also have the option of swapping out Crit Damage for Defense pieces to squeeze out some extra CC and more defense.

Substats:

* Bracer/Ring - Attack
* Necklace/Earring -Defense
* Belt / Rune - HP

## PVP

Roxy is a glass cannon in PVP. She can perform at a high tier but unfortunately is held back by her low defenses. Again, even if you don’t plan on using her Unity she is still very powerful on units such as Light "The One" Ultimate Escanor or LR Green Escanor.

Humans are a limited category in terms of PVP units but you can have a powerful set-up to use in high-level play. A common team you will see with Roxy is LR Green Escanor, Red Excalibur Arthur / Green Excalibur Arthur, and Red Ragnarok Ban in the sub-slot. Escanor can take advantage of Roxy’s Unique Ability with his abilities for tons of damage. Both Excalibur Arthur units play a big role by giving the team a taunt to keep damage off of Roxy or Escanor.

With the addition of her Holy Relic, Roxy's damage output is great increased so long as she can Crit against the enemy. This does not change her usefulness but makes her exceptionally better at her previously established role as a DPS character.

## PVE

Roxy of Madness is a solid choice for PVE content. Roxy can penetrate even the strongest defenses for boss battles. Roxy throughout all Demonic Beast battles is commonly used with TU1 Escanor because they have the highest Crit Chance to ensure Roxy’s Unique Ability is triggered throughout the whole fight.

#### Hraesvelgr

Roxy is an extremely useful unit to have here because of her Unique Ability allowing her to bypass the boss's damage cap. In particular, this is especially important during Floor 2 Phase 2, where you have to kill the boss within one turn without Taunt units or else you will be killed.

#### Eikthyrnir

Similar to Hraesvelgr, you are using Roxy for her high-damage attack and passive. Roxy has high utility here because she is an color Attribute unit so she can follow the Deer’s core mechanic.

#### Skoll and Hati

Roxy can be the missing piece to your team, bringing large DPS to a single target and helping you push through phases quickly. Equipped with a single target skill and Ultimate this can assist you in focusing on one of the dog bosses. Roxy's AOE can be useful during phase 3 to deal equal damage to both of the dogs by ticking both of their health bars down for a good setup.
