Reverse 1999: In-depth Analysis of 'Lorentz Butterfly'! Uncovering Limited-tier Performance and Unique MechanicsReverse 1999's new 3.5 version character, 'Lorelei Butterfly,' is a support and sub-DPS unit that utilizes the 'Luminous' mechanic. She is a key component that further elevates the potential of existing Beryl Luminous teams. With fixed damage proportional to ally damage and a spell replication mechanism, she offers diverse build-up possibilities and adds new fun to gameplay.
1. 🦋 Lorelei Butterfly: The New Core of Luminous Teams
· Lorelei Butterfly is a support and sub-DPS character with the Luminous mechanic.
· She is a high-potential piece that replaces Flutter Page in existing Beryl Luminous teams. While her buff amount is lower than Flutter Page, her 1st skill's fixed damage results in higher overall damage.
· She benefits greatly from Luminous stacks, making her highly efficient with Luminous characters like Beryl, Isolde, Marsha, and Spathodea.
· Thanks to her Ultimate's spell replication mechanic, she can also be broadly utilized with characters where spell usage is crucial, such as Twin Moons or Willow, and opens up new team possibilities like the 'Lorelei Butterfly Marsha Engine.'

2. ✨ Lorelei Butterfly's Unique Mechanics
· All of Lorelei Butterfly's spells increase in rank based on the number of cards of the same spell type in the action zone immediately before activation. (e.g., If you use 1st skill (debuff) and there are 2 debuff cards in the action zone, it activates at Rank 2)
· If a Luminous character does not use an Incantation, that character gains 1 Moxie, and Lorelei Butterfly herself also gains Moxie.
· Luminous characters' Incantation cards do not count towards the hand limit, helping to optimize cycles.
· If there are 3 or more Luminous characters, including herself, the Burn status effect limit increases to 15 stacks, and ally damage bonus and Magic ATK increase.
· If a Luminous character does not use an Incantation, that character gains 1 Moxie, and Lorelei Butterfly herself also gains Moxie.
· Luminous characters' Incantation cards do not count towards the hand limit, helping to optimize cycles.
· If there are 3 or more Luminous characters, including herself, the Burn status effect limit increases to 15 stacks, and ally damage bonus and Magic ATK increase.
| Category | Details |
|---|---|
| Spell Rank Increase | Spell rank increases proportionally to the number of cards of the same spell type in the action zone |
| Moxie Gain | Luminous characters gain 1 Moxie if they don't use an Incantation (including self) |
| Hand Limit | Luminous characters' Incantation cards do not count towards the hand limit |
| Effect with 3+ Luminous Characters | Burn limit increases to 15 stacks Ally damage bonus and Magic ATK increase (90% damage bonus, 36% Magic ATK at 600 Luminous stacks) |

3. 🔥 Core Skill Analysis: Fixed Damage and Spell Replication
| Skill | Effect |
|---|---|
| 1st Skill: Ember Flutter | · Single target attack, then applies Burn stacks · Rank 2 or higher: Deals additional fixed damage proportional to the damage dealt by ally characters to the target this turn (increases with Luminous stacks) · When used with Beryl's Incantation turn, averages 500k fixed damage per skill, with Incantation replication, at least 1.5M damage possible |
| 2nd Skill: Quantitative Judgment Criteria | · Grants a buff to self that applies additional Burn when attacked · Rank 2 or higher: Grants the same buff to Luminous characters · Important for shortening early Luminous stack warm-up (from 4-5 turns to 3 turns), less important in mid-to-late game |
| Ultimate: Unpredictable Dynamic System | · Gains 1 Consecutive Action for 1 turn (fast Moxie cycling means less perceived loss) · Selects 1 regular spell, at the start of the next turn, replicates 3 copies of that spell into hand (cannot be combined or gain Moxie, no action cost) · Replicates the selected spell's rank as is (e.g., selecting a Rank 3 spell replicates 3 Rank 3 spells) · Synergizes with characters where spell usage is crucial, such as Twin Moons or Willow |

4. 🎮 Practical Usage Review: High Potential, Fun, and Difficulty
· Lorelei Butterfly increases the potential of Beryl Luminous teams, but her usage difficulty also increases, which can be inconvenient.
· The addition of Lorelei's cycle to Beryl's cycle means more things to manage, and Lorelei's fixed damage is based on other characters' damage, so it must be aligned with Beryl's burst damage cycle.
· Lorelei's card combination and cycle management are required, which is fine for manual players, but auto-play users might find it less satisfying.
· She is expected to be 20-30% stronger than the existing Flutter Page, but her efficiency can drop significantly in auto-play, so if you have Flutter Page at Portrayal 1 or higher, auto-play might be better with Flutter Page.
· Once you understand how to use her, she's not difficult, and the process of replicating and spamming spells with her Ultimate is very fun.
· Beyond her own 1st skill, various build-ups are possible, such as replicating Rank 3 spells from Twin Moons/Willow, or replicating Spathodea's 2nd skill, making her considered one of the most fun and well-designed characters in Reverse.

5. 🤝 Recommended Teams and Overall Review
· She is most efficient when placed in a Luminous team, and it is recommended to use her with Beryl or Spathodea. A combination with Beryl is particularly advised.
· She also works well in Twin Moons or Willow teams, but in Twin Moons parties, she is not necessarily more efficient than Purification. She can be used as an alternative if Purification is not available.
· Due to Lorelei Butterfly's characteristics, there is potential for more team compositions to emerge through future research.
· As a character designed to replace Flutter Page, she possesses performance and mechanics comparable to a limited character.
· However, she is not a complete replacement; Flutter Page is still more advantageous in high-potential Twin Moons or Corvus teams, and the versatility of follow-up attacks cannot be ignored.

6. 🌟 Portrayal (Resonance) Efficiency Analysis
· Lorelei Butterfly's Portrayal efficiency is not as overwhelmingly high as Beryl's or Calling's.
· Portrayal I: The duration of the Ultimate's Consecutive Action buff increases from 1 turn to 2 turns, making Lorelei's cycle easier to manage.
· Portrayal II: The number of spells replicated by the Ultimate increases from 3 to 4, and from 4 to 5.
· This Portrayal is more about the 'feeling' of spamming more spells rather than pure efficiency.
