In PvP, Sworn Oath is her most reliable Primary. It is consistent and avoids the spin-up drawback of Sweet Business. For the Heavy slot, Nobunaga is the best choice. Its Heavy Attack dash helps close gaps. Most other Swords struggle to reach skilled opponents. If you can stay alive, Sweet Business is still strong. It becomes powerful once fully spun up.

In PvP, Finnala's weapon choices are more flexible. You can use any Primary, but Sworn Oath is recommended to pair with Partridge Sky as the Heavy.
Best Artifacts
Best PvP Artifacts
Slot1
Best Choice |
|
Bulwark Evolution |
It can reach about 36% damage reduction at max stacks. Slow but high-damage attacks can counter it, though this is rare. Be cautious at the start of fights before Armored is fully stacked. |
Alternate Optionst |
|
Chiaroscuro |
It's a useful emergency tool when HP is low. Damage reduction helps, but reduced healing is a downside. Staying below 50% HP is risky, so it's better to avoid that state altogether. |
Healing Radiation |
It's a handy emergency tool for low HP. Damage reduction helps, but reduced healing is a drawback. Staying below 50% HP is risky, so it's best to avoid it. |
Slot2
Best Choice |
|
Unrelenting Evolution |
Damage reduction is always useful and encourages stacking multiple sources. However, it can narrow build options since you need other ways to gain Armored. |
Alternate Optionst |
|
Inverted Tenacity |
It's a great emergency tool when HP gets too low and helps Supports react and heal you. However, being below 38% HP is risky, so it's better to avoid that situation. |
Resolute Radiation |
Damage reduction is always valuable and works especially well in PvP, where debuffs are more common. It's less useful on teams that can keep you safe and prevent debuffs. |
Slot3
Best Choice |
|
Predator Evolution |
It boosts damage on defense-focused builds but can limit options if the user lacks multiple ways to gain damage resistance. Spread out damage reduction during long fights to maintain max stacks. |
Alternate Optionst |
|
Upright Vengeance |
It encourages a high-risk, high-reward playstyle and requires constant healing to stay effective. Often, there are safer ways to gain a damage buff. |
Bellicose Radiation |
It's useful when constantly taking damage over time and works best when affected by a weak DoT. In PvE, it's less effective since a good team can prevent DoT effects. |
Slot4
Best Choice |
|
Sympathetic Evolution |
It's a good way to boost damage on defense-oriented builds. The more sources of damage reduction, the stronger the buff. Proper cooldown management is needed to maximize its effects. |
Alternate Optionst |
|
Inverted Survival |
It's a handy emergency tool for repositioning when vulnerable, but the buffs don't always justify the HP cost. It's less effective on teams that can keep you safe and fully healed. |
Rampaging Radiation |
It encourages a high-risk, high-reward playstyle and requires careful cooldown management to avoid losing too much HP. A supportive build or teammates are essential since losing HP is always risky. |
In PvP game modes, it's recommended to use an Artifact set that revolves around stacking damage reduction. This is because there are characters who can apply anti-heal, and the best way for Finnala to survive without healing is through damage reduction.
Best PvE Artifacts
The advantages of Artifacts are similar to those mentioned above, so they will not be listed again here.

In PvE, anti-heal effects are rare unless specified in the activity, giving Finnala more flexibility with her Artifact set. Still, using a defensive set is recommended since she's a Defense character who attracts enemy aggro.
Recommended Teammates
PvP Team
Finnala |
Gwynn |
Attla |
Gwynn is a strong diving partner who can help redirect aggro. Finnala's Signature 1 can combo into Gwynn's Signature 2, while Finnala's Signature 2 helps handle enemy gunfire from outside melee range.
Finnala can heal Finnala more easily since she's often on the move and can apply Blind for extra safety. However, Finnala is harder to keep safe compared to other Defense characters.
These are some of the characters that pair well with Finnala in PvP game modes. However, as a note, they're good specifically with Finnala, and other characters may be better teammates depending on who else is on the team.
PvE Team
Finnala |
Jolder |
Attla |
Jolder can split Taunts to redirect aggro from many enemies, while Finnala adds debuffs for a defensive Status set. She can struggle if the team lacks offensive support.
Finnala often provides better healing than Tan-2, as Finnala needs to move into melee range. She can apply Blind for added safety but must stay protected since Finnala can't offer extra support outside of Taunts.
These are some of the characters that pair well with Finnala in PvE game modes. Although, they may be less effective depending on the mission's scenario, so make sure to check if they'll be a generally good pick first.
Conclusion
With the right weapons, Artifacts, and teammates, Finnala can dominate both PvP and PvE battles. Want to power her up even faster? Head over to LDShop to recharge with huge discounts and maximize your advantage on the battlefield!
