Quick overview

Stunning. Beautiful. Dazzling. All these things are Olivia to a tee. So imagine that but with the extra razzle dazzle of a special costume and you get Performer Olivia. Performer Olivia is currently the only colourless dancer in the game, both a blessing and a curse. She can’t fulfil the role of a colour tank like most other dancers, but she can fulfil a bunch of niches and is arguably the best dagger unit in the game, just for dance alone. Still the other dancers on the banner have the advantage of not being in colourless hell so there’s that....

Base kit

Olivia comes with the dancers fan, a weapon which has the same might as silver daggers and the same debuff but also heals adjacent allies for 7hp. Its fairly decent if you don’t want to replace it, and helps her do her support role, though you’ll have to choose between the debuff/heal or the dance and normally the dance is the better option. Dance of course is op as anything in this game ALWAYS KEEP THIS SKILL. Distant defence is actually incredible for her. With base 28 resistance she goes up to 34 with this which is enough to live a +atk death blow Reinhardt without horse buffs. Plus it also patches her defence somewhat. Finally there’s blaze dance. This skill is very mixed in terms of how useful it is. On one hand giving danced unit +4 attack is great and makes dancers better, but the fact dancer almost always want wings of mercy makes it hard to argue especially when you could use it as a hone, and have it for both turns. It’s still usable though.

To round of her base kit, moonbow or Luna are her best specials as they are quick and do extra damage which is all she wants. In her C slot anything will do but ideally a hone is great. Hone speed with Blaze dance gives +4atk and +4 speed to a unit potentially so it is worth considering.

Suggested set(s)

Sakura wars

+Spd/atk -def

Dancers fan +, Dance, Moonbow/Luna

Slot A = Darting/death blow3 / Swift sparrow 2/Fury 3/Distant defence 3

Slot B = Wings of mercy 3, Blaze dance 3, wind/water sweep 3

Slot C = Breath of life 3, any c skill

A set designed to optimise Olivia’s healing capabilities. With the breath of life sacred seal she can heal her audience for 17 hp, Essentially letting her be a healer and a dancer, and a dagger user is a great combo. Her A slot is the most open slot as what you run depends on you. Ideally upgrading her attack and speed further are the best options, so the blow skills are good options, while fury 3 provides a overall boost of 3 to every stat helping her defences as well, and does allow for iceberg to be used if her res is untouched or increased by ivs. Distant defence is a cheap but very viable option as well. In her B slot Wings of mercy is the premium dancer skill, but blaze dance is an option though if use you may want to give up breath of life for a hone skill. Finally Wind or water sweep is a interesting choice if +speed as with darting blow you can reach 42 speed enough to ensure no counters against most of the cast and can let you safely heal, though you give up wings of mercy for this option.

Assassin of the opera

+Spd/atk -hp/def

Poison dagger +, Dance, Moonbow/Luna

Slot A = Life and death 3

Slot B = Wings of mercy 3, Desperation 3

Slot C = Hone attack or speed, or any c skill

So if you don’t fancy healing support, Olivia can become a infantry destroyer with Poison dagger. While her base attack sits at 28 and will only be 33 with the weapon, that goes to 38 with life and death, while her speed goes to 39. While not as good as what Kagero can achieve dance means she fills these two roles in one, and allows her to gain a large amount of Kos on infantry units. Mind you, you’ve still got ivs to take in and those make her better. While she loses her amazing res, her speed increase saves her from doubles she’d normally face. Wings of mercy again is the optimal skill for support but desperation could be used if you want pure offence. Finally ideally a hone is great for her but any C skill will do.
