Overview
Luka is a 4★ Physical Nihility from Jarilo-VI, playing Sub-DPS in most teams. Physical Nihility Break DPS who stacks Bleed for sustained damage.
How to Play
Luka wins by keeping debuffs rolling. Apply core debuffs with Skill or Ultimate before your carry acts, and build Effect Hit Rate so bosses cannot resist key effects. Lead with Weakness Break, then convert Break damage into your carry window.
Optimal Rotation
Turn 1: Luka Ultimate or Skill to land debuffs → swap to DPS while debuffs tick → refresh debuffs before expiry. Against bosses, prioritize Effect RES shred before damage dealers act.
Strengths
Luka excels in Physical Nihility teams from Jarilo-VI. Flexible off-field value that frees Skill Points for your Main DPS. As a 4★, they punch above their rarity with the right investment.
Weaknesses
Luka struggles against high Effect RES or debuff-immune bosses. Without another debuff source, damage drops sharply.
