· This video analyzes the trailer, skills, and performance of Joy Wonderfolk, a new character appearing in 'Monster 8: The Game'.
· While the gameplay showcase video may differ from actual performance, it helps in understanding the character's overall concept and skills.

· As expected, Joy Wonderfolk belongs to the 'Attacker' role.
· Her normal attack has the 'Shot' attribute, while her combat skills and enhanced combat skills use both 'Shot' and 'Slash' attributes.
· Considering the recent prevalence of defensive or support characters, the emergence of a new attacker character is welcome news.
· In particular, the 'Shot/Slash' combination, capable of dealing area damage to multiple enemies, is rare, with only OG Gen currently possessing it, making it highly valuable.

· Joy Wonderfolk has a characteristic where she consumes her own HP when using her 'Enhanced Combat Skill' and 'Ultimate'.
· The Enhanced Combat Skill consumes HP without consuming SP, and the Ultimate consumes 60% of HP before granting a shield.
· This HP consumption mechanic is similar to 'Over Limit Shagun', suggesting that a high HP pool and survivability are crucial.
· The shield granted after using the Ultimate is expected to enhance survivability.

· Her passive skill increases 'Damage Dealt' each time HP is consumed (up to 6 stacks).
· After activating the Ultimate, she enters a 'Berserker' state, increasing critical damage, critical rate, and Shot damage, and her combat skills change to Enhanced Combat Skills.
· This demonstrates that she is a character who maximizes combat efficiency by actively consuming HP.
· Therefore, equipping the 'Wyvern B Set' or 'Ant Set' is recommended for increasing HP-based attack power.

· Before using the Ultimate, 60% of maximum HP is consumed, after which it deals Slash and Shot attribute damage.
· This is a very high HP consumption rate compared to existing characters, and her maximum HP is expected to be very high.
· Therefore, a combination with a healer character may be essential for survival.
· The Ultimate deals 318% of maximum HP damage to a single Kaiju and 81% to adjacent Kaiju.

· After using the Ultimate, she grants herself a shield equivalent to 40% of her maximum HP for 2 turns.
· This shield effect can offset some of the risks associated with HP consumption, enhancing survivability.
· The shield's effectiveness will vary depending on the character's maximum HP, so further testing is needed for its actual in-game effect.

· After activating the Ultimate, the 'Berserker' state lasts for 3 turns.
· In Berserker state, critical rate increases by 60% and Shot damage by 20%.
· Additionally, her combat skills change to 'Enhanced Combat Skills', and normal attacks become restricted.
· The damage increase in Berserker state leads to expectations of powerful offensive capabilities.

· In Berserker state, only the Ultimate, Enhanced Combat Skill, and Follow-up Skill can be used; normal attacks are impossible.
· This is a new mechanic not seen in previous characters, requiring strategic skill usage.

· For every 20% of HP consumed, 'Damage Dealt' increases by 5.6% (up to 6 stacks).
· This is a key passive that significantly increases the character's total damage output.
· Therefore, along with equipping HP-based sets, a playstyle that actively consumes HP is recommended.

· The Enhanced Combat Skill consumes only 5% of maximum HP without consuming SP.
· This reduces the burden of SP management and helps maintain sustained combat capability.
· Since the HP consumption is low, it can be used without much concern.

· The Enhanced Combat Skill deals 142% of maximum HP damage to a single Kaiju and 37% of maximum HP damage to adjacent Kaiju.
· It has slightly higher damage and range than the normal combat skill, and the lack of SP cost is its biggest advantage.

· Joy Wonderfolk's skill animations are outstanding, with the Enhanced Combat Skill, in particular, showing unique and creative연출 compared to the normal combat skill.
· This is a part that shows the meticulous effort of the development team.

· Breakthrough 1: At the start of battle, the Ultimate gauge increases by 90.
· When HP is consumed by 20%, critical damage increases by 10% (up to 5 stacks).
· This contributes to increasing the frequency of Ultimate usage and maximizing critical damage.

· Breakthrough 2: When using the Ultimate and consuming 60% of maximum HP, you gain at least 3 stacks of damage increase.
· This means that damage stacks can be continuously accumulated through the use of the Ultimate.
· Ultimate usage synergizes with the character's core mechanics.

· Breakthrough 2: When using the Enhanced Combat Skill, the next action order increases by 50% (once every 2 turns).
· This allows for an additional action opportunity after using the Enhanced Combat Skill, giving an advantage in combat flow.
· She is an interesting character with various features such as HP-based attacker, shield possession, and Enhanced Combat Skill.

· Breakthrough 1: Ultimate Gauge +90, Critical Damage +10% when HP is consumed (max 5 stacks)
· Breakthrough 2: Action Order +50% when using Enhanced Combat Skill (once every 2 turns)
· Breakthrough 3: Skill Level Increase
· Breakthrough 4: Ultimate Shield Coefficient +50%, Shield Duration +1 turn
· Breakthrough 5: Skill Level Increase
· Breakthrough 6: Enhanced Combat Skill and Ultimate Damage +30% before using Ultimate (3 turns)

· Passive 1: After using the Ultimate, grants a 25% speed increase for 3 turns.
· This significantly enhances the character's mobility, enabling faster attacks and evasion.
· Passive 2: When HP is below 30%, damage taken is reduced by 20%.
· When using Enhanced Combat Skill, critical damage increases by 20%.

· Joy Wonderfolk is expected to show strong performance as an HP-based attacker.
· She is a suitable character for new users due to her diverse mechanics and high potential.
· Scheduled for release on May 1st, she is likely to be a limited character.
· If she is not a limited character, it would be surprising, and a build guide video will be provided upon acquisition.
