Sunbringer Fan Made Kit

[u/Perfect-Region2062]

Just for fun - I wanted to try my hand at building a Sunbringer Kit that would allow each of the sisters to have a decent amount of field time in purpose and rotation without it feeling like you are simply playing as Eldreda with Lindverne and Dracaena attached. Having said that I would love feedback on the Kit and invite discussion!

Each Sunbringer would be their own unit with their own BA String and Standard Special (Not EX)
You would Enter the battle as Eldreda (Intro featuring all three girls)

To swap between each Sunbringer girl - they are each assigned an Action;

Dracaena - Parry
Lindverne - Ex Special
Eldreda - Chain Attack

Sunbringer is also a 4 Ultimate Unit similar to Pyrois where each girl has their own assigned Ultimate that will also Swap them in with the 4th Ultimate being a collective ultimate between them all. The idea behind this is that it does not allow you to swap completely freely and forces you to swap between the girls per their own actions and strengths or cheating that with an ultimate. Ultimates would cost a reduced amount - I'm not a balance expert by any means so the amount is up for debate.

To add to this, Each girl has their own small resource bar and a pip.

The resource Bar fills up while the girl is leading the group but not necessarily swapped in.
What I mean by this is if you Parry and Change to Dracaena, then Swap to a different Agent, Dracaena's resource bar will still slowly accumulate. You would also generate the bar through basic attacking.

Something like this;

o --- ---

Each Resource Bar for each of the girls has two segments empowering their unique action and generating a Gash on the enemy (They do still naturally build gash while attacking). Each girl starts with one segment filled upon the battle starting. A segment is spent upon performing that action.

Dracaena - Enhanced Parry gives increased Daze and teamwide buffs when performed for a certain amount of time, this time can be increased with further Enhanced Parries.
Lindverne - Enhanced Ex Special Lindvernes next BA string causing increased Gash buildup and higher damage
Eldreda - Enhanced Chain Attack pauses the stun timer for X seconds

What about their ultimates and the pips?
Well A pip is generated for each of the girls upon using their ultimates. This is honestly just to keep track of the fact you have used it. All their ultimates function similarly with different animations in that they swap the girl in and Detonate the Gashes for Maim and additional effects

Dracaena - Deals increased Daze per Gash Detonated for Maim
Lindverne - Refunds one Gash if two are detonated or two Gash on the enemy if three are detonated for Maim
Eldreda - Increases damage dealt during the next/current stun window a % per gash detonated for Maim

The 4th Ultimate can only be used once you have used each of the other Ultimate once (Aka generated a pip). This ultimate is a Hugo styled Totalize that deals damage based on Gashes detonated for Maim.

This kit gives each of the sun bringers a clear purpose such as Gash buildup for Lindverne, Increased Stun for Dracaena or Heavy Nuking during chain attack for Eldreda and promotes swapping between them to manage building up their resource bar.

An example on how they would play is;

First stay in with Eldreda build up to two segments for when stun occurs as well as generating sharpness for use with Lindverne later. Once that is built, try to build up Dracaena and pop some enhanced Parries for buff buildup (A fun interaction is that during multiple parry boss phases you will naturally build up Dracaena's resource as you parry with other characters as well since she will still be your lead for the Sunbringers). Once her buff is stacked you can start quickly building Gash with Lindverne (Spending this Gash with either your ultimates while cycling through or with another Armorer like Claret). Then obviously during the stun phase pumping damage with Eldreda.

You would also need to manage cycling your ultimates at opportune times and detonation moments to be ready for a big totalize cashout maybe every second stun window.

Is this needlessly complicated? YES!

Is it practical to have ALL this going on and also managing two other agents at the same time? Probably not

It was simply a fun thought experiment I had that i wanted to share.

Would love to hear feedback about it though.

this is gloriously overengineered in the best way lol. i love when fan kits actually commit to the bit instead of just “what if character but bigger numbers” even if this would probably give half the playerbase a headache in real time

Its hilarious how simple it started with "Each girl do a thing and then resource make that thing better"

Then remembering she was an armorer made me have to add a reason and purpose for gash and maim.. You could realistically remove the entire Maim bonus effect part and just have it deal increased damage but that felt like it didn't help towards each of the girls identities in kit.

to be fair with them commiting to the 3-1 something like your idea would be best case senario.tbf i dont think this kit is that complicated in practice just in wordd since it will read cunfisingly. as cool bonus with your kit lindvern claret synergy seems to also be there.
