Quick Evaluation

+ Trait: Attacks splash to nearby enemies
+ Talent: On deployment, randomly gain either ATK, ASPD or HP
+ S2: a decent ATK boost for a moderate duration. Hits all enemies in range simultaneously. Extended range allows her to hit targets others can't.
- S2: Can troll yourself with self-stun. Long cooldown.

Operator Overview

“Tarot cards aren’t divine, all-seeing tools. Instead, we use them for guidance when we’re lost.”

Cool as a cucumber when she reads fortunes but wild with anxiety when she hits the gambling tables, it’s Rhodes Island’s favorite soothsayer: the glorious Gitano. As an AOE Caster, Gitano is invaluable for countering large swarms of enemies and small groups of armored foes.

Gitano is always gambling with her Talent, Divination, which gives her a random buff when deployed. It’s a fun twist, but not something you can count on. Thankfully, her second Skill, Destiny, is not RNG-based at all. It amps up Gitano’s Attack power and increases her range to a scope beyond the range of any other AOE Caster. Most powerful of all, this Skill also allows her to attack all enemies within her increased range simultaneously. Be warned, however, that the Skill comes with a major drawback: when the duration expires, Gitano stops attacking altogether for an extended period of time. Used at the right moment, Destiny can win a fight, but if used carelessly, it can lose it instead.

In addition to the usual weaknesses of AOE Casters – slow attack speed and very high DP cost – Gitano has a few special weaknesses of her own. The RNG on Divination can be frustrating, and Destiny requires either good intuition or preemptive knowledge of a stage to use safely. Regardless, AOE Arts damage is often vital to have around, and Destiny is a powerful tool for the savvy player, making Gitano a worthwhile investment.

Newbie Tier List Explanation

Expanded range on S2 + hits-all-targets allows for Anni3 cheese strats and good burst. Cheap to raise.

S2M3 None

Note: This unit does not have Mastery grades. This means the unit is generally not one worth spending the resources of Mastery on. However this write-up should help with skill selection, should you want to use the unit regardless.

Like many 4★s, Gitano is not a bad unit despite lacking a Mastery grade. However, her role does not require extra investment, either. Most players won't get any value out of her beyond a mid-to-high level E1 with SL7, so extra investment is purely a luxury. If you do want to go that extra mile, S2 is the better choice. Despite its brutal SP cost, the extra range and true AoE damage is the far bigger benefit, especially in the early going when Gitano is most useful.

Base Skill Analysis

Gitano gains her second RIIC Skill at Elite 1.

Is it worth it?  Probably not.  Gitano does have one of the best low-rarity Clue speed bonuses  (For more details see the Reception Room Guide), but clue speed increases result in such low actual return, that paying off the promotion costs could take years considering there are other very available Operators (like 12F or rope) that have clue speed buffs that don't require any investment at all. Plus, her Skill 1 buff gives +25% to Trading Post, so new players may want to use her there until they can replace her with Operators with better buffs.  AoE casters as an archetype are quite weak, and the need for them falls off sharply after midgame.  Therefore, though she might be a good option to develop for gameplay early because of swarm mechanics being more common  (and for example, she is used in a common AnniH-3 strategy), she is not a strong long-term gameplay choice.

Profile

Gitano is a mystic from Sami, tarot expert and a great card player. She has never spoken to anyone of her past prior coming to Rhodes Island, and it remains a mystery. All anyone knows is that her readings are very accurate.

Clinical Analysis

Increase Trust to 25.
Imaging tests for this Operator showed blurry outlines of internal organs with visible dark spots. Unusually high concentrations of Originium particles were present in her circulatory system, indicating infection and confirming her as Infected at this stage.

[Cell-Originium Assimilation] 5%
The infection could be related to Operator Gitano's arcane abilities, though this has yet been proven..

[Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.3u/L
Infection approaching mid-stage, Originium beginning to have physical effects that are not obvious.

Archive File 1

Increase Trust to 50.
A fortune teller cannot tell her own future, but she can read the omens and guide her choices. She has the power to create devastating explosions with her Originium crystal ball, but she must also withstand the backlash.

Archive File 2

Increase Trust to 100.
Divination is a hobby to Gitano that she does almost for free, accepting fruits and cakes as a token payment. Her clients ask for readings on anything from the future to a misplaced key. Just like any soothsayer, Gitano gives ambiguous answers that require some careful thought to decipher.

Archive File 3

Increase Trust to 150.
Unlike her relaxed composure during a reading, Gitano gets anxious easily and becomes very competitive when playing cards. She is never allowed to shuffle the deck out of fear that she'll cheat. Even then, she knows countless other card tricks, and unless she's caught red-handed, she'll never admit to cheating. Still, some people play with her because they either want to catch her in the act, or see a nervous side of her she doesn't otherwise show.

Default
Appointed as Assistant Alright, Doctor, your tarot card for today is...
Talk 1 Would you like to learn more about your future?
Talk 2 Bear it in mind that excessive reliance on unfathomed power will eventually backfire on us.
Talk 3 Tarot cards aren't divine, all-seeing tools. Instead, we use them for guidance when we feel lost.
Talk after Promotion 1 Destiny is like the world we walk upon—no one can escape it.
Talk after Promotion 2 Humans might never be able to escape this world... but we can change it. Our actions belie endless possibilities.
Talk after Trust Increase 1 There are countless topics for which you can consult the tarot, the most common one being your luck in card games. To change it, however, you must be brave enough to change your fate first.
Talk after Trust Increase 2 We have a ritual among diviners that's all the rage these days. We call it the 'Hand of Fate.' Would you like to try it?
Talk after Trust Increase 3 It's a divination taboo to do readings concerning death. But I don't believe death is the end—it's the beginning of something new.
Idle Dreams can often enlighten you in strange ways. If you have an enlightening dream like that, you'd best remember every detail, Doctor.
Onboard Following the guidance of the arcana, our paths have finally converged. Nice to meet you, Doctor.
Watching Battle Record I feel inspired now.
Promotion 1 I'd already foreseen this promotion in my crystal ball. Heheh, just kidding.

Added to Squad Wait a minute, let me predict the results of this battle.
Appointed as Squad Leader Well then, let me pray for everyone.

In Battle 4 All will fall before the Priestess's might.
4-star Result Will fate have us in a chokehold… or will we turn the table?
3-star Result I have moved all of them to the graveyard.
Sub 3-star Result Time to reshuffle the deck.
Operation Failure Impossible... this isn't what I saw in the cards...
Assigned to Facility Bad omens seem to lurk inside this room. May I use my powers to help you manage them?

Trust Tap Want me to do a reading on your future? All right, please give me a minute.
Title Arknights.
Greeting Doctor, you're blessed by the winds of luck.

Description:
When the action starts, Gitano will tell you that she already knows the enemy's deployment pattern and will use her crystal ball to repel all of them at exactly the right time. Of course, the response is also part of the calculation. Teammates only need help block the enemy.
Gitano alone knows that some difficulties cannot be perceived through divination, and she can turn only to her Originium Arts, experience, and cooperation with her teammates.
