Review
In Etheria Restart, Oboro’s kit is original and stands out as an oddity, since she’s currently the only Animus inflicting damaging debuffs that are not grouped with [DoTs].
First of all, Oboro has a chance to inflict 1 stack of [Bleeding] Debuff every time she crits on an enemy. This Bleeding deals 50% of Oboro’s ATK as damage per stack whenever the enemy takes a turn. Although multiple stacks can be accumulated on the enemy, the damage itself cannot Crit, nor be buffed by DEF- and the likes. This drastically reduces her potential Damage Output, especially with the current meta revolving around super buffing Crit-based Animus to produce instantaneous firepower.
The rest of her kit brings a lot of extra debuffing, on top of correct Damage:
S1 hits a single target twice with a low chance to apply [SPD-] each time;
S2 hits once but has a very high chance to land [DEF-] on the target;
S3 is another Single target attack, which has a chance of its own to apply 2 stacks of [Bleeding] regardless of crit. If she crits however, she reduces the enemy’s Turn meter by up to 45% (even though it has no base chance to be applied, it can be resisted).
In PVE, Oboro is a strange, but kind of usable mix of a DPS and a Debuffer. Unfortunately, her output greatly pales in comparison to Rin the Unbowed, another Odd Affinity SR. And when it comes to the Odd Affinity SSRs, all of them are also much better than her at fulfilling their role of DPS.
In PVP, there is simply no reason to play Oboro as your main Damage Dealer when most DPS are simply more efficient.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Each of her debuffs are useful.
Can be considered a Debuffer/sub-DPS hybrid.
Cons
Since all 3 Skills are important to her rotation, she needs investment in each of them.
Bleed, as of launch, is mostly there to increase the damage through Momentum set.
Lower damage potential than most DPS.

Best Build
The builds below are tailored more toward PVE and we only mention PVP in some places - like for alternative Shells or Module choices. But PVE is our focus.
Best Shells
For some DPS characters, we're showing two set of numbers. The top one on shows the performance in single-target scenario and the bottom on blue background in AoE scenario (4 targets). If there's just one number, it means the character only has single-target capability.
1
After the main body's turn, a Follow-up Attack on the main target dealing 240%+4200 damage, applies [SPD+] for 3 turns to the main Animus, applies and increases their Turn Meter by 25%.
A speed-based alternative for DPS characters to use instead of the mostly pure damage setups offered by Striker shells. Deals a large hit of damage, grants a 25% gauge boost, and offers the wearer the [SPD+] boost with 100% uptime on use. The downside of using this shell on DPS is that the matrixes are mostly support-focused, leading to suboptimal 12/8/6 set-ups or causing you to break sets and run 12P Swiftrush and an 8P set of your choice. Despite this downside, it can still be some characters’ top option. As with all speed-based sets on DPS, in teams that have gauge boosts for the DPS, it will lose value. Also, loses most of its value when used in teams that already have a team member granting the [SPD+] buff with good uptime.
This shell offers Oboro significantly faster cycling, allowing her to deal more damage and inflict her debuffs more often.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Swiftrush [12/12]
![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Fury [8/8]
![Matrix]()
>Battlewill [8/8]![Matrix]()
>Harvest [8/8]![Matrix]()
>Onslaught [8/12]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: None - the optimal set combo requires you to use a 8-pc/12-pc set not present on the shell, so you have no place for a 6 PC Inferno set.

A pure Support build that wants to abuse the Timeweave skill CD reset mechanic to cycle even faster.

Specialist Shells
Below you can find some alternative Shells you can use - though it's mainly for PVP scenarios.
1
At the start of the battle, puts the owner Animus in a 1-turn [Void] state; afterward, for every 3 turn(s), enters a 2-turn [Void] state after the turn ends and increases ATK by 10%.
A PVP-focused defensive option for DPS characters, allowing them to enter the Void state at the start of battle, increasing their Effect Resistance by 60%, reducing the area DMG they take by 50%, and also making them un-targettable for its duration.
Best Module Sets:
- 12 set: >Keeneye [12/12]
![Matrix]()
Onslaught [12/12]![Matrix]()
- 8 set: >Fury [8/8]

>Harvest [8/8]![Matrix]()
Onslaught [8/12]![Matrix]()
- 6 set: Furyedge [6/6]

Best Stats
Substats:
SPD (Until Desired) = CRIT Rate > Effect ACC > CRIT DMG > ATK% > Flat ATK
Stat comments
Oboro has four stats to pay attention to across gear:
- CRIT Rate: Oboro must have 100% CRIT RATE to be able to decrease Turn Meter and land her Bleeds.
- SPD: After CRIT RATE prioritize SPD.
- Effect ACC: Oboro needs Effect ACC to land her debuffs - though she has pretty decent base chance for them, so you don't need to invest too much into Effect ACC.
- Crit DMG: With everything else at a satisfactory level or maxed out, CRIT DMG is the best way to boost Oboro's damage. Invest into as much of it as possible after everything else.
Shell Passives
Slot 1
ATK% > ATK
Slot 2
SPD = CRIT RATE = Effect ACC >= CRIT DMG
Slot 3
Odd DMG% > DMG%
Passive comments
- Slot 1: ATK% is optimal, but if you're lacking in materials Flat ATK can also be used.
- Slot 2: If you're planning on cycling Oboro multiple times in fights SPD is often the best DPS choice, but if you have teammates to solve her Speed requirements, CRIT RATE or DMG is preferable. Effect ACC is also an option here if you're having issues landing the debuffs.
- Slot 3: Odd DMG% is optimal, but if you're lacking in materials generic DMG% can also be used.
