Yae Miko, “Astute Amusement,” is a Catalyst user from Inazuma and the first five-star Electro character introduced in the game. Yae Miko oversees the Grand Narukami Shrine and works as the editor-in-chief of the Yae Publishing House. 

Yae Miko’s Elemental Skill is called “Yakan Evocation: Sesshou Sakura,” which allows her to move quickly while leaving behind Sesshou Sakura. The Sesshou Sakura will periodically strike enemies with lightning to deal Electro Damage. 

As an Electro Catalyst, players will find Yae Miko to synergize greatly with Raiden Shogun. A great addition to a party to enhance damage, make sure to pull Yae Miko before her banner is gone.

New Enemies

Travelers will have their hands full as they gear up for battle against new enemies. Located at Nurukami Island, the “Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto” is the form that the puppet that inherited the Raiden Shogun’s authority takes when she opposes those who threaten Eternity.

Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto

She will continuously absorb Ominous Destiny and will enter the Baleful Shadowlord form when Ominous Destiny is filled up. Beware, she is capable of more fatal attacks and has excellent DMG RES.

Shadowy Husk

There’s also the enigmatic warrior of darkness known as Shadowy Husk (Standard Bearer, Line Breaker, and Defender). Players take caution for when their attacks hit a character defended by shields; they will obtain buffs at the cost of its HP.
