Best pairings

  • Gilded Barrage's back-row snipe needs a frontliner holding the line, and Alcar's Glorious Mark and Boneshatter buy that window.
  • Crouching Tiger's stacking enemy-damage-taken debuff compounds with Long Fei's own damage proc, since both scale off the same weakened enemies.
  • One of three Gen 5 SSR heroes run together in the F2P arena core, alongside Long Fei and Thrud.

Vivian's story in brief

Vivian is the only child of the Ostervilts, financiers for ten generations who are said to control more than half the assets of their town. She had every toy and attendant and very little of her parents. She skipped her lessons for the markets and alleys, where she met a tall, golden-haired boy who boasted that he would do something great for his family. She told him she only planned to become a famous bounty hunter.

The boy disappeared on the day a City Council member's estate burned while the crowd stood and watched. Vivian left home as soon as she came of age. Years later she met him again in the street. He was a Lafayette, a family exiled from the Council and spoken of at the Ostervilt dinner table as troublemakers, and he told her it was best they never speak again. She still wonders whether that was the last goodbye. The family fortune is in her skill names, with Gilded Barrage, Priceless Shot, Trap of Greed and Money Driven.

Frequently asked questions

Is Vivian worth building?

Yes, her kit is built around offensive support, piercing the front line to hit the back row and stacking damage-taken debuffs that make every other squad hit harder.

What does Vivian's army-wide damage buff do?

The skill behind it is Crouching Tiger, an Expedition skill that stacks a 5-25% damage-taken debuff on the enemy with every squad attack. It is a debuff on the enemy, so every squad hitting that target benefits.
