Vivian is an S-Rank Anomaly Agent with the Ether element. She is an amazing Anomaly sub-DPS unit who can both function as the team’s main damage dealer and also work in combination with other Anomaly units to drastically boost the team’s overall damage. Vivian brings forth a new mechanic known as [Abloom], which is unique to her and can double, or sometimes even triple, the damage of your team. Abloom activates whenever you trigger an Anomaly with another character and does a portion of the Anomaly’s damage. This is a great mechanic to have in Anomaly teams, as it gives new life to the archetype and is something that can stand the test of time!

Vivian Best W-Engines

Rank	W-Engine	Effect
1	Flight of Fancy	Increases Anomaly Buildup Rate by 40%. When the equipper deals Ether DMG, their Anomaly Proficiency increases by 20 for 5s, stacking up to 6 times. This effect can trigger once every 0.5s, and repeated triggers reset the duration.
FREE TO PLAY
3	Weeping Gemini	Whenever a squad member inflicts an Attribute Anomaly on an enemy, the equipper gains a buff that increases Anomaly Proficiency by 30, stacking up to 4 times. This effect expires when the target recovers from Stun or is defeated. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Vivian stacks best with Anomaly Proficiency and W-Engines that can give her a ton of that, which are naturally the best choices for her. There is no doubt that her best W-Engine is her signature, the [Flight of Fancy], but even without it, Vivian’s next best option is the F2P-friendly [Weeping Gemini], making her an easy unit to get up and running.

Vivian Best Drive Discs

Anomaly Proficiency > ATK%

Drive discs are also not a problem for Vivian, as you won’t have to go back and forth debating which set to choose. The set that brings out the most of Vivian’s kit is the newly added [Phaethon's Melody], and it has everything that Vivian needs. Alongside it, you generally want to run a 2-piece Freedom Blues to further boost Vivian’s Anomaly Proficiency.

Skill Priority

As far as skills are concerned, you first want to go for Vivian’s Core, followed by her Basic, Special, Chain, Assist, and finally, Dodge.
