A mysterious woman known as the demon swordmaster. She seems to be wreathed in a mystical shadow. Rather than join the royal knights, she works as a mercenary. Her skills have been the cause of rumors. Her archrival is the Paladin Anabel. Just seeing her is enough to give her a headache.
Review
Deirdre is a free episode unit. As an earth elemental attacker, she excels in that field thanks to her Manifestation weapon, further increasing the damage she deals because of her pain punisher.
Drawbacks
· Deirdre does not have any proper AoE skills except for the pain.
Useful for
Deirdre is very good in an earth team with Myunfa. Most of the damage will come from Deirdre, with a guaranteed crit buff from Myunfa and her elemental damage buff, Deirdre is definitely a viable option to invest grasta and time to grind for her 5* class change if you have already did her first episode and 4*. And all of that can be done for free, her true VC grasta can also be obtained fairly easily if you have the means to kill 2 Horrors considered to be end-game grind.
· AF charging.
· Deirdre has earth resistance down on another skill, which can increase damage dealt by her..
· Boss killer and applies guaranteed pain for herself and other dps.
· Bonus episode points farming I guess.
Futureproof
Deirdre is a really good earth dps, and worth getting her to max potential. She is used mostly in an earth team with zone or slash zone. If unlucky, she can be your main dps in any team comp as long as you have a decent unit that can heal her so that she takes advantage of the full HP and pain punisher. Adding a support unit with a crit buff or an earth buff will surely make her an outstanding unit. Pro tip: Use Altena sword skill enhance before AF.

Very good for an offensive physical oriented team, it can slow the enemies down enough so that your slower dps can act before them.

Chaos Saber takes advantage of its own physical resistance that can stack. On top of dealing extra damage to enemies if inflicted with pain, her manifest almost triple that damage with another condition, which is increased damage when Deirdre is at full HP. Taking into consideration all those setups, her max potential is almost achieved by her skills alone. Good for killing bosses and very easy to spam in AF, no need to think about switching skills in the middle of it.

A very powerful self buff that inflicts Pain on all enemies, applying pain on enemies will make Chaos Saber deal more damage. Blood Cruelty becomes more useful if other units can take advantage of it and especially if their skills do increasing damage with pain, i.e.: [AoE] Cerrine manifest, [ST] Nagi AS. The self buff also last longer, so Deirdre becomes a power house in terms of damage.
