Tips and Tricks[]

Role & Strategy[]

  • Terror Byte is an offensive fighter with a Signature Ability that revolves INVERSE POLARITY and utilizing a mechanic of constant healing, while also applying SPECIAL DISABLE. Terror Byte acts to control and manage health where applying any debuff to the enemy will heal not only herself, but the enemy too. She rewards a high-risk, high-reward playstyle where managing INVERSE POLARITY will passively lower enemy health while gaining her own like a drain, but inflicting other debuffs would backfire and benefit the enemy more than Terror Byte herself.
    • Terror Byte applies INVERSE POLARITY using HEADRONE hits, which can be gained safely while afar or if the enemy is knocked down. However, be careful of how many you gain at once since they leave you open to be attacked.
  • INVERSE POLARITY is a rare DEBUFF that is not accessible to most fighters. This allows Terror Byte to have a niche against defenders that gain REGEN easily, most notably Valentine variants with the ICU Marquee Ability or Black Dahlia variants with NO TIME TO DIE Marquee Ability.
  • Applying SPECIAL DISABLE benefits Terror Byte to be less afraid of enemy BURSTS, and can extend for long combos to maximize the healing and inverse she will continuously apply
  • Marquee Ability: The recommended Marquee Ability for Terror Byte is PING CHECK to further increase her offensive output.
    • Due to the nature of her playstyle, you may consider a Critless variation of Terror Byte as well

Stat Investment[]

  • General Investment: As an offensive Robo-Fortune, Terror Byte is best built with Attack, Piercing and Special Cooldown.
  • Special investment: Accuracy will ensure that her debuffs aren't resisted.
