Best Grace Build Guide

Written by Phạm Ngọc Bảo Châu · Updated 6 Oct 2026

Playstyle Overview

Grace is an Electric Anomaly Agent who builds Electric Anomaly very quickly to inflict Shock. Basic and Dash Attacks that deal Physical DMG give her Zap stacks; at 8 stacks, a Special or EX Special Attack consumes them all to greatly boost its Electric Anomaly Buildup. Her Additional Ability amplifies the next Shock after each EX Special Attack.

Her rotation is short: Basic Attack to build Zap, unload EX Special Attacks, then swap out. Build Anomaly Proficiency, Anomaly Mastery and PEN Ratio; she needs no limited W-Engine. On the downside, her grenade throws make her step back, causing positioning issues; outside Disorder teams, repeated Shocks add no extra damage; and she is usually outclassed by limited Agents.

Best W-Engines

Timeweaver

ATK 713 · ATK% 30%

Slightly the best: lots of ATK, unconditional Electric Anomaly Buildup Rate, extra Anomaly Proficiency when Special Attacks hit Anomaly-afflicted enemies, and more Disorder DMG at 375 Proficiency. Excellent in Disorder teams.

Time-Devouring Stratagem ›

The equipper's Electric Anomaly Buildup Rate increases by 30%. When Special Attacks or EX Special Attacks hit enemies suffering an Attribute Anomaly, the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency increases by 75 for 15s. When the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency is greater than or equal to 375, Disorder DMG inflicted by the equipper increases by 25%.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

Practiced Perfection

ATK 713 · ATK% 30%

Gives plenty of ATK and Anomaly Mastery. Since Anomaly Mastery is separate from Anomaly Buildup Rate, it scales very well on Grace and sits just barely behind Timeweaver.

Gift of Stardust ›

The equipper's Anomaly Mastery increases by 60. When inflicting Assault, the equipper's Physical DMG increases by 20% for 20s, stacking up to 2 times. Repeated triggers reset the duration. When the equipper enters combat, immediately gain 2 stacks.

Fusion Compiler

ATK 684 · PEN Ratio 24%

Her signature, permanently available and the most used: unconditional ATK and PEN Ratio plus stacking Anomaly Proficiency on Special Attacks, a great fit for her EX-focused kit. Only about 2% behind the two above.

Data Flood ›

Increases ATK by 12%.

When using a Special Attack or EX Special Attack, the equipper’s Anomaly Proficiency is increased by 25 for 8s, stacking up to 3 times.

The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

Electro-Lip Gloss

ATK 594 · Anomaly Proficiency 75

A Battle Pass W-Engine that can be very strong or fairly weak depending on the situation. Only use it when a teammate applies Anomaly before Grace or keeps an Anomaly up on enemies at all times.

Kiss of Death ›

When there are enemies inflicted with Attribute Anomaly on the field, the equipper's ATK increases by 10% and they deal an additional 15% more DMG to the target.

*Stats are shown at base level

Weeping Gemini

ATK 594 · ATK% 25%

Craftable and easy to max: ATK% and a large amount of Anomaly Proficiency whenever the team inflicts Anomalies. It performs nearly on par with the options above.

Lingering Cries ›

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.

*Stats are shown at base level

[Magnetic Storm] Alpha

ATK 475 · ATK% 20%

A budget B-Rank option: ATK% plus extra Anomaly Mastery after building Anomaly (once every 20s).

Disordered Current ›

Accumulating Anomaly Buildup increases the equipper's Anomaly Mastery by 25 for 10s. This effect can trigger once every 20s.

Best Drive Discs

Thunder Metal

4-pc ›

2-piece:

Electric DMG +10%

4-piece:

As long as an enemy in combat is Shocked, the equipper's ATK is increased by 28%.

Puffer Electro

2-pc ›

2-piece:

PEN Ratio +8%

The strongest set overall: 28% ATK while an enemy is Shocked, which Grace applies herself. Best in mono-Shock teams and still on top in Disorder teams if you arrange for most of her buildup to happen during Shock. Swap 2-piece Puffer Electro for Swing Jazz if you lack Energy.

Chaos Jazz

4-pc ›

2-piece:

Anomaly Proficiency +30

4-piece:

Fire DMG and Electric DMG increases by 15%. While off-field, EX Special Attack and Assist Attack DMG increases by 20%. When switching on-field, this buff continues for 5s, and this continuation effect can trigger once every 7.5s.

Puffer Electro

2-pc ›

2-piece:

PEN Ratio +8%

Nearly equal to Thunder Metal: Anomaly Proficiency from the 2-piece, 15% Electric DMG and 20% EX Special/Assist DMG while off-field (lasting 5s after switching in). It suits Grace since her damage is concentrated in Anomalies and EX Special Attacks.

Freedom Blues

4-pc ›

2-piece:

Anomaly Proficiency +30

4-piece:

When an EX Special Attack hits an enemy, reduce the target's Anomaly Buildup RES to the equipper's Attribute by 20% for 8s. This effect does not stack with others of the same attribute.

Swing Jazz

2-pc ›

2-piece:

Energy Regen increases +20%

EX Special Attacks cut the target's Electric Anomaly Buildup RES by 20% and the 2-piece adds Anomaly Proficiency; 2-piece Swing Jazz lets her cast EX Specials more often. Good when the team needs someone to carry this RES shred.

Best Main Stats

Disc 6Anomaly Mastery

Endgame Stats

ATK: 2300 – 3000+
HP: 9500+
DEF: 800+
Anomaly Mastery: 150 – 190+
Anomaly Proficiency: 350 – 450+

Most of Grace's damage comes from Shock, so Anomaly Proficiency is her key stat (aim for 350–450+), while an Anomaly Mastery Disc 6 lets her Shock faster. On Disc 5, PEN Ratio is slightly ahead, with Electric DMG nearly as good.

Skill Priority

Core Skill
›Special Attack
›Chain Attack
›Assist
›Basic Attack
›Dodge

Her Core Skill raises her Electric Anomaly Buildup so she Shocks faster, so level it first along with Special Attack, the skill she uses most on-field. Chain Attack/Ultimate deals decent AoE damage; the rest matter little since most of her damage comes from Shock.

Best Teams for Grace

Most Used Teams Right Now

Remielle Dan

Grace

Velina Airgid

Grace's most used team in both Shiyu Defense and Deadly Assault. Velina's Vortex counts as a form of Shock damage and benefits from Grace's passives, while Remielle brings huge buffs and personal damage.

Grace

Velina Airgid

Yuzuha

Her second most used Shiyu Defense team: Yuzuha keeps Disorders flowing with very high buff value. Nangong Yu is also a great partner, creating regular Stuns so Grace can spend her resources inside Stun windows.

Disorder Teams

Remielle Dan

Alice

Grace

The highest average score among Grace's Shiyu Defense teams: three Anomaly Agents of different attributes keep Disorders coming.

Pair Grace with an Anomaly Agent of another attribute to trigger Disorder. Miyabi can be replaced by any off-attribute Anomaly Agent (Velina to trigger Vortex instead of Disorder), and Yuzuha by Astra Yao, Seth, Zhao or Rina.

Shock Team

Grace applies Shock, Rina extends and amplifies it for the team, and Harumasa deals extra damage while an enemy is Shocked.

F2P Team

Anby and Grace are both Electric, so they activate each other's Additional Abilities; Soukaku passes her ATK buff to Grace, raising her overall damage.

Best Bangboo for Grace

In the Shock team, use Plugboo (with 2+ Electric Agents its Chain Attack builds much more Anomaly), or Safety, Avocaboo, Electroboo or Magnetiboo. In the Disorder team with Miyabi, Brawlerboo is the main pick, with Magnetiboo or Knightboo as alternatives.

In the F2P team, Electroboo makes use of the two Electric Agents; Bagboo, Avocaboo and Magnetiboo also work.

Mindscape Cinema

Which Mindscapes Are Worth It?

M2 is the most valuable upgrade and a sensible stopping point, greatly increasing Grace's effectiveness. M4 is also great, and M6 is decent. M1 only restores a little Energy and changes little; M3 and M5 only add skill levels.

M2
Grenades from Basic, Special and EX Special Attacks lower the target's Electric RES by 8.5% and Electric Anomaly Buildup RES by 8.5% for 8s, making her Shocks noticeably faster and stronger.
M4
EX Special Attacks grant 6 Charge stacks; each Basic or Dash Attack hit consumes one for 20% more Energy generation, speeding up her EX Special cycle.
M6
When all Zap stacks are consumed, her Special and EX Special Attacks throw an extra grenade and each grenade deals 200% DMG, a solid boost to her on-field damage.

Recharge Chamber

When the 4th hit of Grace's Basic Attack hits an enemy, all squad members gain 0.25 Energy.

Within the same move, this effect can grant a max of 2 Energy to all squad members.

Efficiency is the lifeblood of engineering, and within Grace's gun barrel resonates its heartbeat.

Lightning PiercerRecommended

When Grace's grenade hits an enemy during a Basic Attack, Special Attack, or EX Special Attack, the target's Electric RES is reduced by 8.5%, and Electric Anomaly Buildup RES is reduced by 8.5%, lasting for 8s.

"Dissecting" complex mechanical structures is Grace's greatest hobby, even in the midst of battle.

How does it feel to get taken apart, with every vulnerability laid bare?

Chief Mechanic

Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2

Grace was personally involved in writing the "Belobog Industries' Construction Safety Guidelines."

She's also the employee who violated the "no dangerous explosives at construction sites" policy the most times.

Burst CapacitorRecommended

When Grace uses her EX Special Attack, she gains 6 stacks of Charge (max 6 stacks).

When her Basic Attack or Dash Attack hits an enemy, 1 stack of Charge is consumed, increasing her Energy Generation Rate of the attack by 20%.

Anton suspected within the component Grace referred to as the "Electropulse Recycling Module," there was, in fact, an Ether hamster tirelessly generating energy around the clock.

"Can you equip my bro with one too?"

"Frosty Cold Iron Witch"

Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2

The "Frosty Cold Iron Witch" is capable of taming any mechanical beast, or at least that's what the anonymous fan who came up with the name thinks.

Detonation TriggerRecommended

When all Zap stacks are consumed to activate a Special Attack or EX Special Attack, Grace's skill is enhanced, tossing an extra grenade and increasing each grenade's DMG to 200%.

The average blood temperature of Belobog Heavy Industries' employees is ninety-eight degrees Celsius. Grace is often viewed as the safety valve keeping them all from boiling.

When even Grace gives up control, it's a sign for everyone to cover their ears.

Story

Agent Profile: Grace

Grace is a technical expert at Belobog Industries. She's the core talent in developing and patenting Belobog's in-Hollow machinery.

She's obsessed with gears, metal and wires — a true mechanical geek. She's eager to dismantle and study any machinery or equipment she takes an interest in: "Such sharp and strong lines, truly beautiful... I can't help but want to open it up and take a look."

Grace always shows extraordinary patience when dealing with machines, doting on the sophisticated metal constructions as if they were her own children.

According to the information at hand, Grace is probably the only one who can playfully refer to Koleda as "Sweet Pea" without receiving a kick in the shin.

Question: Based on Grace's understanding of machines, would she consider me one? I'm currently lacking a physical form, however, so I don't possess components like gears, metal, or wires.

Increase Trust to Close to unlock more

Both of Grace's parents, who were research workers related to the Hollow, disappeared during a dangerous expedition into a Hollow, and were soon presumed dead. Grace was adopted by her parents' former friend, Khors, the previous president of Belobog Industries, and Koleda's father. As a result, Grace and Koleda are "sisters," though not related by blood.

Cooperation Notes:

Belle: Is it just me... or does Grace sound just like a human being talking to a cat whenever she's talking to machines?

Wise: You mean the way you talk to cats, right?

More importantly, is Fairy already thinking about philosophical questions like "Who am I?"

Ghi Chú Hợp Tác

Belle

Cứ cảm thấy cách Grace nói chuyện với máy móc, giống như con người nói chuyện với mèo hoặc động vật nhỏ đáng yêu khác... Là ảo tưởng của em sao?

Wise

Đó là cảm giác khi em nói chuyện với mèo nhỉ. Mà Fairy đã bắt đầu suy nghĩ đến vấn đề triết học như "tôi là ai" rồi sao...
