Hissabeth

Short answer: Hissabeth is a 6-Star, Plant-Afflatus Arcanist who deals Mental damage and works as a DPS, Control, Moxie unit. Like every Arcanist, Hissabeth hits harder when you respect the Afflatus wheel, so field Hissabeth where the Plant advantage actually lands.

Afflatus and Matchups

Hissabeth uses the Plant Afflatus. That means Hissabeth has the advantage against Mineral units and is at a disadvantage into Beast units. The two element triangles never cross, so plan a small bench around them rather than forcing one team into every stage. The full breakdown lives on the Afflatus system page.

Role and Damage

Hissabeth deals Mental damage and is built for DPS, Control, Moxie duties. Reality and Mental are the game's two damage types, and matching your carry's damage type to an enemy's weaker defense is a quiet but real power gain. Pair Hissabeth with teammates that cover the roles Hissabeth does not.

Building Hissabeth

Invest in one carry at a time and gear Hissabeth with the best-fitting Psychube you have before spreading materials thin. As a 6-Star Arcanist, Hissabeth is summoned from the gacha, so read the pity system before you spend: a 6-star is guaranteed by 70 pulls and the featured Arcanist is guaranteed within two 6-stars.
