Overall, Tribbie’s kit suggests a support role that enhances team damage through resistance penetration and defense reduction. Her follow-up attacks and area-of-effect buffs make her a versatile addition to various team compositions. She is expected to synergize well with characters who benefit from increased damage output and those who can capitalize on her debuffing capabilities.
