She’s also new-player friendly and works quite well even in a free-to-play setup.

Mavuika also gains ATK boosts whenever someone in the party uses Nightsoul Burst.

The second skill that makes Citlali very strong is herElemental Skill Dawnfrost Darkstar.

With this skill, she deploys a party-wide shield that grows stronger depending on the Elemental Mastery of Citlali.

If you build Crit DMG on Citlali, her Ultimate can deal very good damage in the right conditions.
