Derieri Build: Choose the Route Before the Gear
There is no single Derieri build. Use Gauntlets when she must be the on-field Darkness attacker, Greatsword when your Fire carry needs team support, and Axe when a Darkness team needs Normal Skill support and resistance pressure.
Start with Derieri plus one same-element damage partner, one role amplifier, and one sustain or safety slot. The correct partners change with Gauntlets, Greatsword, or Axe; a universal best team has not been verified.
Is Derieri Worth Pulling? A Conditional v1.8 Answer
Consider one copy when you specifically need a Darkness on-field attacker, Fire support, or Darkness Normal Skill support and can cover your chosen stop point. Save if those jobs are already covered or the modeled guarantee would break your reserve.
Replace the missing function, not the character name. Missing Gowther means find the relevant burst or support utility; missing Merlin means use another damage or utility slot for that route; missing Daisy means replace her charge utility with sustain or a same-element amplifier.
Use Guardian Golem as a controlled single-target test: one primary route, two enablers, and one safety slot until survival is stable. Derieri Gauntlets is a candidate attacker; her Greatsword and Axe routes should only be used when the rest of the team benefits from their element-specific support.
Guardian Golem Damage Comparison: Assumptions First
Use the Guardian Golem preset to compare two builds under identical assumptions, not to predict the combat log. Replace modeled DEF, level, and resistance with values from your own test if available.
Does Pity Carry Over in 7DS Origin? Evidence Boundary
Do not assume carry-over from this site. The v1.8 publisher notice confirms Derieri's banner and ticket type but does not state the 80 counter, 120 guarantee, 50/50 flag, or which counters transfer. Check the active in-game Rate Info before spending.
The verified current pickup is SSR Derieri — Explosive “Combo Star” — after the August 5 maintenance until the August 26 maintenance (UTC). The exact August 26 maintenance time is not yet verified here.
Gauntlets is the Derieri route for players who want her as the active attacker. Its current skill data rewards continuous hits and a Showdown/Strike Combo sequence, so teammates should minimize field-time competition and cover sustain or off-field utility.
Greatsword is the Fire support route. Current skill data shows team Fire Attack support, Fire Defense reduction, and an Ultimate/Combined Attack damage-taken window, so judge it by the enabled carry and rotation rather than Derieri's isolated hit.
Axe is the Darkness support route. Current skill data ties its value to Darkness Normal Skills, Night Bloom, and Darkness-resistance pressure, so it is a poor generic slot if the rest of the team cannot trigger those conditions.
