Wandjina

"Koala? Ah, this little one? Nope! It’s a boomerang!"

After a brief appearance at the end of the Servant Summer Festival 2025 event, Wandjina finally joins the roster proper in her own event as the first entry into the ST Quick Foreigner niche. An elemental spirit of cloud and rain from Aboriginal Australian mythology, Wandjina’s love for humanity is present throughout her kit’s mix of both offensive power against Threat to Humanity enemies and supportive buffs for allies with the Human Attribute.

Her first skill, Nature's Droplet B, functions as both an offensive buff for herself and her hard defensive option, providing her with both Quick and Buster buffs for 3 turns, a 2-time, 3-turn Evade for herself, and a special buff related to her NP that gives her a stack of the [Elemental Wrath] trait with 5-turn duration every time she attacks. The primary function of [Elemental Wrath] is to further bolster her NP’s damage for every active stack. Her second skill, Blessings of Life B+, is offensive support-oriented. This skill provides ATK and Crit Damage buffs to all allies, and for any Human Attribute allies, she further grants NP Damage buffs and a special on-taking-damage buff that gives Wandjina additional [Elemental Wrath] stacks whenever they take damage. Wandjina unfortunately is not Human Attribute herself, so she does not directly benefit from the additional bonuses of her second skill, but she still can indirectly gain benefits from any Human Attribute teammates. Finally, her third skill, Watcher of the Water Stars A, is her primary self NP charging skill, with a value of up to 30% for herself. Additionally, it provides both 10% NP Gauge and healing over time for the entire party for five turns, giving her decent sustained benefit in longer encounters.

Her Noble Phantasm, Wandjina Mamaragan Seven Stars, gives her the ability to Ignore Invincibility and buffs her NP Damage and Special ATK against any Threat to Humanity trait enemies before dealing damage to a single target. Additionally, for every [Elemental Wrath] stack, she deals an additional 10% supereffective damage, up to a maximum of 10 stacks. Although it can be difficult to reach the ceiling for her NP since it requires both usage of her Cards and/or Human Attribute allies being attacked by enemies, her damage potential is quite high with the proper setup. She also has decent hit counts, an NP battery skill, and an NP regen per turn effect that help ensure that she has easier access to her NP.

Overall, Wandjina’s greatest claim to fame is being the first single target Quick Foreigner available. She has a good balance of sustain and offensive support, especially for Human Attribute allies, and is among the hardest hitting if she is up against any Threat to Humanity enemies or is able to stack her special [Elemental Wrath] trait before firing off her NP. She also makes for a great member of a multi-damage dealer team due to her party-wide NP regen support and offensive support. However, she also often is not the best offensive choice available especially against non-Berserker enemies, if other options with 2x offensive Class Advantage can be used instead. Regardless of this, however, her balance of helpful effects makes her a welcome addition to any team. Masters who have Wandjina in their Chaldea will have a joyful ally of humanity at their side.

Great Party Support

She provides the party with all of 10% NP Gauge per turn for 5 turns, up to 1000 HP healing every turn for 5 turns, and ATK +20%/Crit Damage +30% buffs, and a further NP Damage +30% for any Human Attribute allies. All of these effects are useful in nearly any scenario and make her a pleasant party member to have around.

High Damage Ceiling

Among Foreigners, she has a high potential damage ceiling within her own kit, when including both the Threat to Humanity Special ATK bonus as well as the [Elemental Wrath] stack-based supereffective ATK bonus, both of which stack multiplicatively with one another. As a result she makes for a great option when dealing with not only Berserkers, but also other Foreigner enemies, since most Foreigners also have the Threat to Humanity trait. The Ignore Invincibility effect on her NP helps ensure that she can bypass enemy defensive skills as well, which can come in handy in some challenge encounters.

Trait Stack Setup Time

Her NP gains damage bonuses based on [Elemental Wrath] stacks, and there are two ways she can obtain these stacks. One involves using her normal attacks after her first skill, which require her Cards to be available, and this may not be guaranteed since she will often be run with allies who can benefit from her buffs, so her Cards will be diluted in the Command Card deck. The other way is if Human Attribute allies are on the team, with her second skill’s buff, she gains a stack every time they are attacked by the enemy. This also can sometimes be difficult to make consistent without the proper allies or taunt usage, and still requires allowing the enemy to move, which is an inherently slower strategy. Making her work at her maximum potential can be difficult to properly set up.

All of Wandjina’s skills are helpful to her overall performance, although in general her skills with supportive effects are the most powerful and gain most potency when leveled. The overall recommended skill leveling order is 3 > 2 > 1.

• Nature's Droplet B – The effects that scale with level are the Quick/Buster buffs for herself; the Evade and Elemental Wrath stack effects do not change with level. Improving this skill still helps boost her overall power level, although this can be left for last.

• Blessings of Life B+ – All three of the ATK, Crit Damage, and NP Damage buff effects are improved with levels in this skill. Note that the NP Damage buff does not affect herself, however, and only affects Human Attribute allies. Regardless, this skill gives high return for investment, and is second priority after her third skill.

• Watcher of the Water Stars A – Levels in this skill increase how much NP Gauge she gains as well as the HP regeneration each turn. Going from 20% to 30% NP Gauge can help her hit thresholds required for NPing more consistently, and the increased healing can help the party withstand longer battles. Given her highest source of damage is her NP, giving her quicker access to it makes this skill higher priority.

Wandjina is a Quick ST damage dealer with a healthy helping of supportive skills and a 30% NP charge. She works well with Starting NP Gauge CEs, as well as other CEs that provide Quick Effectiveness, NP Damage, and ATK buffs.

• Kaleidoscope / Winter Crystal / The Imaginary Element – Wandjina can NP out of the gate with a non-MLB Kaleidoscope or an MLB Winter Crystal or Imaginary Element, making these CEs a great choice if Masters need access to her NP faster.

• Holy Night Supper / Mission Start / Empty Garden / Princess’s Pilgrimage / Knights of Marines / Traces of Christmases Past / Crimson Teacher’s Pointer / Empty Garden / Imaginary Number Attribute / Cherry Icicle / Star’s Day Off / One Summer / Golden Sumo: Boulder Tournament – These CEs provide multiple beneficial offensive effects, including NP Damage/Quick buffs, Crit Damage buffs, and starting NP Gauge, which support Wandjina’s overall performance. Since Wandjina also has a 30% NP charge skill, she can get an immediate NP from the start if she also has her 2nd Append Skill fully leveled.

• The Black Grail / Heaven's Feel – These are CEs that provide the highest NP Damage boost available. However, if these are run with Wandjina, she will likely need additional NP Gauge support from allies.
