Backstory
Palekar hails from the secretive caste of Shadow Chroniclers—sworn historians of the Swamp Elf legacy, bound to record the truth from behind the veil. Of all the tales she preserved, her heart was always drawn most to the stories of heroes and their triumphs.
But true heroes are rare. And so, rather than waiting for legends to be born, Palekar chose to shape them herself. From that moment on, she stepped into the role of a mentor, guiding countless champions from the shadows—unseen, but ever present.
Though her name never graced the pages of history, her wisdom shaped the very figures that filled them. She became a teacher of heroes, forging legends while remaining one step removed from the spotlight.
However, an undisclosed incident would one day lead her to abandon both her sacred duty and her pen. She vanished from the world stage, choosing seclusion over service.
Even after the fall of Noctis Nebula and her arrival on Jigrad, Palekar kept to herself. But a plea from a younger kin—and a quiet pull toward the so-called Human God—stirred something long dormant.
And so, at last, the sage stepped out of the shadows… and into the light.

Palekar is the newest 6-cost DPS and defense-shredding support elf.
She functions primarily as a DPS who exists to amplify your main carry, while still dealing respectable damage on the side—and very high numbers when fully invested.
Her core kit revolves around Verse of Ordeal, a skill that deals damage based on her Magic Attack and, more importantly, applies the Unstable effect.
At level 10, this effect reduces all DEF of enemies within its radius by 1140, lowers their SPD by 40%, and increases the damage they take (this bonus scales with her dupes) on top of that, and to put it on perspective, Vlissing’s Atra-hasis signature weapon reduces All DEF by 720, while Joo-Hee’s Fleur de Vanité 92 reduces All DEF by 640.
Additionally, whenever an ally attacks an enemy affected by Unstable using a skill that costs 60 AP or more —which is the average cost for most top-tier main DPS— Palekar performs a supportive follow-up attack and restores 37 AP to that ally at the end of their turn.
Her rotation is straightforward: open with Verse of Ordeal, let your main carry do the heavy lifting, then use Trajectory of Severance. At EX6, this skill hits extremely hard, but it can only be used once per round, forcing Palekar to rely on basic attacks afterwards.
Survivability can be an issue, as Palekar is somewhat fragile. In certain teams, she may require a dedicated healer, or you’ll have to rely on dodge RNG to keep her alive.
| EX Level | Base INT | Excess INT | Immaterial Boost | Crit DMG increase |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EX0 | 17 | 22 | 9 | +180% |
| EX1 | 16 | 23 | 10 | +200% |
| EX2 | 17 | 24 | 11 | +220% |
| EX3 | 18 | 25 | 12 | +240% |
| EX6 | 19 | 26 | 13 | +260% |
For Palekar’s build, it depends on your goals. If you want her solely as a support especially at EX1 (I suggest going full support).
Otherwise, a DPS build works only if she’s fully maxed (EX6), as her damage is relatively low compared to other main carries.
Support Build:
- Reckoning of Sin
- 2-Piece: Increases AP Recovery by 4% during combat.
- 4-Piece: At the start of combat, gain 30 AP. On a successful hit, inflict [Price of Sin] on the target. [Price of Sin]: Reduces Elements DEF by 200. The effect ends when the target is hit.
Recommended Substat Priority: AP Recovery > Magic Attack > Anything else.
DPS Build:
- Jester's Mask
- 2-Piece: Increases Magic Attack power by 10% during combat.
- 4-Piece: During your turn, increases Skill DMG by 25%. Basic Attack grants 1 stack of [Jester's Quip] for 2 rounds.
- [Jester's Quip]: Increases Skill DMG and Magic ATK by 5%. Stacks up to 2 times.
Recommended Substat Priority: Crit > Magic Attack > Evade > Anything else.
Budget Alternatives: SS Reckoning of Sin and SS Jester's Mask are solid options.
