Overview

Jeanne d’Arc (Alter)

RarityCostClass
5★16Avenger
Avenger
Rating9.5/10

Boasting the highest natural attack stat among all Servants released so far, Jeanne Alter is currently the game’s premier critical damage dealer. Possessing a skillset which is highly specialized for the role, and aided by the Avenger class’ lack of weakness, her damage potential greatly outmatches that of her competitors.

However, except for the Invulnerability built-in to her third skill and the buff block attached to her NP, she has no survival nor utility tools, and while she is able to generate stars to some extent, it is nowhere near enough to support her role. As a result, she relies on her teammates to provide these. The Avenger class’ low star weight also means that her critical absorption skill needs to be maxed before she is able to perform criticals reliably

Outside of critical-based teams, her damage and NP generation is still considered good, but in this situation, she suffers from the fact that her Avenger class deals neutral damage to most classes, meaning that there will often be better damager options.

Pros

  • High base attack and class modifier
  • Optimized skillset
  • Effective against any class
  • Good NP gain rate
  • Her NP’s buff block is a rather useful in certain fights

Cons

  • Reliant on allies for critical stars generation and sustain
  • Has no class advantage except against Berserker and Ruler, the latter of which is rarely found
  • Low base star weight
  • Critical absorb skill must be high leveled to be effective

Strategies & Tips

Jeanne Alter possesses high percentage critical and Buster buffs; as such, she values attack buffs highly. She is ideally placed in a critical-oriented team, alongside support-type Servants equipped with critical star-generating CEs. It is in these competitions that Jeanne Alter truly shines, as she is able to easily charge her NP gauge, and maximize the effectiveness of her criticals via buffs. Outside of critical-oriented teams, she loses a large part of her strength, though she is still by all means a decent damage dealer.

Noble Phantasm

La Grondement du Haine is a single target Buster-type NP which deals damage and applies a curse as well as a buff block (one time) to an opponent. Due to Jeanne Alter’s nature, this NP will most likely be used to create Brave chains, meaning that its side-effects are merely additional bonuses. Its damage is also notable thanks to Jeanne Alter’s buffs.

Best Servants to Work with

ServantExplanation
Zhuge Liang
Zhuge Liang
His offensive buffs, particularly the attack buff, are highly valued by damage dealers such as Jeanne Alter. Zhuge Liang’s defense buff and NP also helps the team’s survival quite a bit, and the instant NP increase is valuable for both damage dealer and support.
Hans Christian Andersen
Hans Christian Andersen
Hans is a well-known sustain/critical support, which automatically puts him on this list. His skillset synergizes well with Jeanne Alter, although a third support would be useful to help keep Hans’ fragile bulk alive.
Mash Kyrielight
Mash Kyrielight
Although Mash doesn’t really possess a critical affinity, she is a good choice to help keep the team alive, something that is needed due to Jeanne Alter’s lack of defensive options.
Merlin
Merlin
The obvious critical support, Merlin covers a lot of Jeanne Alter’s weaknesses, and increases her damage potential even further.

Best CEs

CEExplanation
Limited/Zero Over
Limited/Zero Over
Buster Performance Up
Increases Jeanne Alter’s Buster damage even without her third skill active. Scales well with her critical buff, which lasts for three turns.
Gem Magecraft: Antumbra
Gem Magecraft: Antumbra
Critical Damage Up
Compared to buster performance CEs, these allow for Jeanne Alter’s non-Buster crits to hit much harder, even more so since critical buffs on CEs tend to have higher percentage compared to card performances. However, their scaling is worse as Jeanne Alter already possesses high-percentage critical buffs.
Victor from the Moon
Victor from the Moon
Combination
Combines two buffs, typically resulting in a higher total percentage. In Jeanne Alter’s case the buff types are usually Buster performance up and critical damage up.
Seal Designation Enforcer
Seal Designation Enforcer
Critical Star Absorption
Especially useful for a low-skill Jeanne Alter, these CEs allow her to perform criticals even without her first skill.

Skills

Upgrade Priority

  • Self-Modification EX

    Grants 3-turn critical damage and absorption buffs. As Avengers have very low base critical star weight, this skill should be Jeanne Alter’s first priority if she is to be used in critical teams.

  • Dragon Witch EX

    Both attack ups’ percentage equal that of an A-rank charisma. However, as Jeanne Alter herself lacks the [Dragon] trait, the second attack up is not as relevant. This skill should be leveled last.

  • Transient Dream A

    Due to the magnitude of the Buster buff, this skill becomes Jeanne Alter’s primary damage increasing buff, especially on her Noble Phantasm. As such, it should be leveled second if she is to be used in critical teams, after Self-Modification EX.
