Our Take on Brynhild
Brynhild is an SSR Sanctum Glory Warrior who can generate most of her own [Grace] ingredients. Whirling Slash gains [Fervor], Radiance Battlefield deals 160% area damage and grants [Morale] to nearby allies, and her Radiant Transformation talent turns each [Grace] entry into a 220% Attack shield.
Strengths
- +Radiant Transformation gives a 220% Attack shield for 6 seconds in [Grace], and each shield exit leaves a radiant ember worth 1% Attack.
- +Radiance Battlefield grants [Morale] to nearby allies, expanded to an extra-large area at level 4, which helps the whole Sanctum Glory team reach [Grace].
- +Level 2 adds 25% Attack whenever her side has more units than the enemy.
- +Level 7 extends Radiant Ash Ring by 1 second per ally buff, up to 5 seconds.
Weaknesses
- −Radiant Ash Ring, her Overdrive, has no damage number in the in-game text, and its Grace-removal scaling is not explained clearly.
- −Whirling Slash only deals 120% linear damage, so her damage relies on stacking embers over a long fight.
- −Level 2's bonus depends on unit counts, which works against her when the team falls behind.
How to Play Brynhild
Play Brynhild in the front row. Use Whirling Slash for [Fervor] and Radiance Battlefield for [Morale]; together they should push her and nearby allies into [Grace], which triggers her shield. Each time a shield ends she gains an ember, so longer fights make her stronger. Level 4 is a high-value upgrade because a larger [Morale] area supports more teammates. Level 7 is worth it in teams that stack buffs on her, since it lengthens Radiant Ash Ring.
Good Teammates
- Arthur (SSR) – Arthur's Fervor Shield gives [Fervor] to ally Luminaries while Brynhild spreads [Morale], so both reach [Grace] more often.
- Melina (SSR) – Melina's Arcane Blessing grants [Morale] to a random ally prioritizing Sanctum Glory, adding another buff for Ash Ring's level 7 extension.
- Ophelia (SSR) – Ophelia's Sacred Guard grants [Fervor] on summon and sanctuary is another ally buff for Ash Ring's level 7 extension.

Should You Invest?
Brynhild is SSR and sits at T3 on this site. She is a sensible build if you already field Sanctum Glory [Grace] units and want a [Morale] source, but she is not a priority carry.
