Skills & Role Summary
Haniel is a Psyche Support who provides team-wide buffs and Esper Cycle acceleration, making her a key enabler for reaction-based teams. Her Skill applies a Psyche mark to enemies that increases all damage taken by the marked target — effectively a team-wide damage amplifier. Her Ultimate grants the team a burst of Cycle meter and ATK bonus for 15 seconds, enabling rapid Ultimate rotations. Unlike {character:edgar} who heals after damage, Haniel prevents damage by amplifying your team's kill speed. The core loop is: Skill to mark enemies → Ultimate for Cycle + ATK burst → swap to DPS for amplified damage during the buff window. She pairs best with Cosmos characters like {character:chiz} for Cycle-enabling burst rotations.
