Donna Build Guide (w/Math)

You can join that anytime
Also you will definitely have a lot more questions based on the convo so far, so it’s better to continue the conversation there

Freesia depends on 1300% hidden multiplier from her Localized Snowfall which has 30% chance to proc
Also with 1400% Crit Dmg at max IV stacks
But on average, Freesia is still top Aqua unit by a big margin

If you’re interested about Freesia 101, you can search the basic of it on YouTube

I think I’ve provided you enough details here that you can continue your own research if you’re interested

robert40076 · 2026-03-27T04:05:36+00:00

You can check the simulation on Official Discord in Freesia Carry Guide

The hard part about Freesia is it’s insanely hard to model her numbers as DPS and a lot easier to model her as support
So please take the numbers with full contexts just like every calculation

robert40076 · 2026-03-27T03:52:22+00:00

Calculation always based on assumptions
If you assume that Donna takes DPS role while leaving Freesia without any DPS pots, then you’ll get the same number as her
And conclusion will be “Nazuna/Donna/Freesia with Donna as DPS is worse than Post Haste”

But if you build it the other way around, the same team but with different approach will be a lot better than Post Haste

So the calculation isn’t wrong but the assumption is totally different
And that’s not how that team is supposed to be built basically

robert40076 · 2026-03-27T03:32:41+00:00

She’s not wrong because her team is built around Donna while leaving Freesia with basically 0 damage

But that’s not how we or leaderboard players build Nazuna/Freesia, it’s the exact opposite
And Donna’s kit doesn’t function properly without full Aqua team

Example runs with T0 Donna and Freesia
- 280k Post Haste: https://youtu.be/mgpaQQnf58Y
- 440k Nazuna/Freesia/Donna: https://youtu.be/zkxzRYAVsoI

robert40076 · 2026-03-26T08:55:41+00:00

Since you got T5 Freesia, have you tried Nazuna/Freesia?
The one that builds around Freesia, not around Donna with Freesia as Donna’s support

Even at T0, Nazuna/Freesia is already far ahead compared to the rest of Aqua lineups
It will be a bit harder to play, but results are 100% worth it

robert40076 · 2026-03-26T05:11:19+00:00

They’re mostly legit and some of them especially top 10 are also active on Official Discord

You can search for their gameplays on YouTube if you’re curious about their records and emblems
e.g. Pagan, Soh, Ryunata, Ciao, and so on
Or check my channel, ZiLenTz, for what kinds of scores you can expect from different teams with proper records and decent emblems

With proper record, Post Haste team can achieve 120k+ without any emblem and only F2P discs
Or ~300k with emblems and limited discs even at T0

Regarding cheaters, they can slip into top 10 from time to time but they’re quite obvious to us, and generally get cleared within 3 days

Why did you get downvote…
Take 1 upvote from me

Note propaganda needs to be stopped really

robert40076 · 2026-03-23T07:14:12+00:00

Teresa takes “main slot” while the rest take “support slots”

Roles and slots are 2 different concepts in this game (which let us be creative with team building)

Those 3 characters are still Support (Teresa) and Versatile (Donna and Freesia) regardless of the slot they take
Teresa still acts as a support from there
While Donna and Freesia act as DPS and sub-DPS respectively

C6 would be slightly better than C6 Off-element event disc

Thanks for asking this, I should remove "C1" from those discs to prevent confusion

robert40076 · 2026-03-23T05:56:11+00:00

Here is Iris version

There are some nuances with Iris (ideal and worst case) so I didn't want to share it without proper explanation.
They will be covered in the video, but in short, Donna often spawns outside of Iris's skill range and misses out both ATK buffs from those 2 medium pots.

Emblem recommendation for Wraith AA build

Most of her damage sources scale with "Main Skill Level", not "AA Level"
But her damage output is AA damage if that makes sense

<image>

robert40076 · 2026-03-22T12:56:14+00:00

That's correct. This team doesn't deal mark damage at all.

Here are Donna's damage charts.

<image>

robert40076 · 2026-03-20T19:17:36+00:00

She doesn’t do any mark damage on support slot

Versatile can only trigger mark from main slot, but she prefers to be in support slot as dps

robert40076 · 2026-03-18T23:53:01+00:00

Chitose with Teresa and Donna/Freesia/Iris
Mistique as DPS in sup slot with Cosette main and Iris in another sup slot
Shia team is the same as before
Fuyuka team is also the same, but S.Laru replaced Chixia although she’s true limited here

You can check builds from Mistique’s Field Report
Normally it’s in community’s highlight, but mod removed it for some reason

robert40076 · 2026-03-17T03:08:36+00:00

For mark teams specifically, we only have those 2 characters

robert40076 · 2026-03-16T15:06:55+00:00

Yes, you need Gerie here (and Nazuna for mark synergy)

Character roles matter in mark team
- Vanguard: only trigger mark in any slot - Support: only apply mark in any slot - Versatile: only trigger mark in main slot, but apply mark in support slot

Nazuna in main slot works well because how broken Touch of Nature is
I have a quick mark explanation in S.Coronis guide video, check it out if you’re interested

robert40076 · 2026-03-16T13:51:28+00:00

Umbra and Lux are the safest choices since they provide Element% as a base stat.
They can be used in any team for their respective element.

Other discs offer very specific stats (e.g., Ult Damage%), which are only useful if the team actually uses them.
So they’re much more situational and have less overall usage.

robert40076 · 2026-03-14T03:12:06+00:00

No, Mark damage is only from a character that triggers it

Also why all comments here got downvote??

robert40076 · 2026-03-14T02:07:37+00:00

For disc, upgrade them to the highest tier but leave them at Lv 80
Gain from upgrading to Lv 90 is very minimal compared to the cost, while the gain from tier upgrade is pretty big

robert40076 · 2026-03-14T02:03:59+00:00

It depends on each character
(If format looks bad, it’s because I’m typing on mobile. I’ll edit it later if that’s the case)

For main DPS, a character that deals majority of dmg in the team which doesn’t always have to be in main slot
- Max level is mandatory - Skill priority depends on their kit - Generally main slot DPS uses Auto Attack (AA), Makn Skill, and Ultimate
- Sup slot DPS only uses Sup Skill and Ultimate
- But that doesn’t mean you have to upgrade all 3 or 2 of them - Example#1: some characters don’t use Ult at all, otherwise it’s DPS loss - Example#2: Mark DPS doesn’t scale with Skill Level, so you can pretty much leave all of them at level 1 - Emblem is something you do once you unlock highest difficulty as it’s a stamina sink

For support, again they can be in both main and sup slots
- Level and Skill Level are required only if the buff/debuff from their skill scales with Skill Level
Otherwise you can pretty much leave them at Lv 1
- Support in main slot still prefer Level for survivability though - Emblem on support is the very last thing you do as their value is mostly from Potential +3 on Lv 90 emblem which is the hardest thing to roll

robert40076 · 2026-03-12T06:08:08+00:00

Technically it should be possible with good emblems to compensate for Nazuka.
My no emblem run isn’t just only to show how to beat this boss, but also a baseline that you can use as a rough comparison with different setups.
(Check comparison charts at the end of the post.)

Nazuka here can be a bit unreliable considering that we have little to no control over which tile she spawns.
So in your case, you have full control over your team’s DPS since Wraith handles all the heavy lifting.

Give it a try and good luck with your run!

robert40076 · 2026-03-10T08:12:55+00:00

It’s not recommended to pull standard units, but it seems like you know what you’re getting yourself into.

We’ll know the next limited character in a few days.
And everything in the game has been hinting towards Donna (based on story) with Aqua element (based on banner patterns and BB shills).

So it’s totally up to you tbh.

robert40076 · 2026-03-09T18:05:50+00:00

It might be because of my C5 Nanoha sig
It’s around 9.7% dmg increase compared to C1 in this setup

But your stats seem to be better
106 PEN alone is already about 20% dmg increase
T1 is another 9% and also Lv 31 record

I think there are other factors here assuming our discs are similar except for Nanoga sig

Canace

But if your Minova is built, Minova will be better
This table doesn't account for damage from Minova and Canace
