Introduction to Luna

Luna is a support character with a versatile kit that can be transformed into a DPS role through her Noise Surge mod. This unique aspect makes her one of the most complex and interesting characters in the game. Here’s a breakdown of her abilities:

Abilities Overview

  1. Perfect Pitch: Luna’s primary ability involves pulling out a unique weapon necessary for using her skills. This means she cannot use her guns and skills simultaneously. The Perfect Pitch ability allows her to build up a skill power modifier.
  2. Improvisation (Passive): This skill increases Luna’s Inspiration Gauge when she hits the notes correctly. When the gauge is full, an enhanced skill can be used, depleting the gauge entirely. If she misses the notes, the gauge decreases, and the skill fails to activate. The gauge depletes completely if Luna remains out of combat for a certain period.
  3. Cheerful Act (Four): This ability grants Luna and her teammates buffs. For Luna, it increases her gauge while using the ability. For teammates, it decreases their cooldowns. When used as an enhanced skill, it grants teammates a 100% cooldown reduction.
  4. Exciting Performance (Two): This skill increases Luna’s skill power modifier and grants teammates skill power, skill crit, and skill crit damage. It scales with Luna’s MP, and duration increases the length of buffs on allies.
  5. Relaxing Act (Three): Provides MP recovery for Luna and her teammates and decreases resource costs.

When Luna equips the Noise Surge module, her role shifts from support to DPS. This changes her buffs to affect herself instead of her allies. For instance:

  • Two: Increases Luna’s skill crit rate.
  • Three: Increases Luna’s skill crit damage.
  • Four: Increases Luna’s skill power modifier.

First Impressions

While Luna offers strong support capabilities, her gameplay can be challenging and niche. Here are some key points from my initial experience:

  • Active Playstyle: Luna requires constant attention and precise note-hitting, which may not appeal to everyone.
  • Quality of Life Improvements: Extending the duration of her enhanced skills and improving the satisfaction of her rhythm-based gameplay could make her more enjoyable.
  • Music and Rhythm Sync: The current synchronization between notes and music lacks impact. Allowing players to customize tracks or purchase songs could enhance the experience.
