Patch 7.2 will feature four event prayers—three reruns and one new companion:
| Character | Features |
| A versatile damage dealer from the Star Guide, capable of playing both on the field and in the pocket. This makes him a good fit for a variety of teams, but not for teams with other Reactions. He has a Star Wedge and a passive ability for exploring the new Snowy location. | |
Furina |
A sub-DD and buffer, also with dual-stance mechanics. In one, he can heal the active hero, and in the other, he can "burn" allies' health to buff them. A strong support for classic reaction heroes, but offers nothing to Star and Moon teams. |
Zibai |
A main damage dealer from the Moon Crystal. Grants the squad access to this reaction and deals high personal damage. Demanding of allies and requires a good Hydro Applicator. |
Linnea |
A Moon Crystal support. Enhances reaction time, deals significant damage with a summoned creature, and heals the squad. Transforms the Hydro Crystal into its Moon form, and quickly gathers ore and captures animals with special charged shots. |

| The best constellation | C0-C2 | C1-C2 | C0-C2 | С2 |
| Dependence on the signal | Not necessary if there are alternatives. | Not necessary, needed for personal damage | Preferably if there are no top 3 options | It's not critical, there is a F2P alternative. |
| Is it worth it for a newbie to knock out? | Yes, if there is no Yae Miko or other Star damage dealer. | No, if you plan to play in enhanced reactions | No, unless there's Columbine. | Yes, if you take Zi Bai |
| Is F2P suitable? | Yes | Yes | No | Yes |

Mitya will be part of one of her strongest squads in the sub-DD position. maid Danika will have targeted buffs for Star Conductor, a shield, and a "pocket" status. This will make her a more beneficial ally for squads. Sandrone and other Star Guide damage dealers.
Chronicled Wishes
In addition to the usual prayers, for the first time there will be Natlan regional bannerAll heroes are limited, so if you lose, you're guaranteed to receive an event character. Each Natlanian has unique movement mechanics and can fit into strong teams, although some don't quite measure up to modern levels in damage and require significant investment. So, let's break down each hero's abilities:
| Character | Features |
Varesa |
A main damage dealer against attacks while falling. She primarily plays in Overload squads, but can also be used as a driver in Star or Moon teams. She was available for free during the Anniversary Event, but for convenience, it's best to get her a signature. |
Xilonen |
A buffer capable of healing the active hero, reducing enemy and allied elemental resistances, and increasing elemental damage. Can be worn Scroll of the Hero of Cinder CityIn dire need, it can also be placed in squads with enhanced reactions. Due to the instant expenditure Nightsoul complements Pyro Archon Mavuika. |
Chasca |
A primary damage dealer who utilizes a reaction-mixing mechanic. She effectively attacks with her allies' elements, rather than her own. This allows her to adapt to most world bosses, and her ability to fly aids exploration. |
Let's compare partners based on key criteria:
| Varesa | Xilonen | Chasca | |
| Role in the team | Main DPS | Support | Main DPS |
| The best constellation | C0-C2 | C0-C2 | C0-C2 |

| Is it worth it for a newbie to knock out? | No | Yes | Yes, if there are no plans on the account Master Varka or do you need a convenient damage dealer? |
| Is F2P suitable? | Yes | Yes | Yes |
In addition to the heroines listed above, two more companions are expected. Saurian hunter Kinich will return for the first time after the patch. Natlan.
| Character | Features |
Kinich |
Main damage dealer for Combustion or Blossom. A very demanding hero, difficult to find a strong team for. Offers interesting gameplay, but doesn't pair well with popular Pyro applicators due to their fighting style. |
Mualani |
A hyper-carry with a unique playstyle. The need to circle enemies significantly slows her rotation. She has significant issues hitting flying or actively moving enemies and is only fully effective in Para-based lineups. |

| Kinich | Mualani | |
| Role in the team | Main DPS | Main DPS |
| The best constellation | C1-C2 | C1-C2 |
| Dependence on the signal | It is advisable if you want to close complex content. | Desirable, but there are alternatives. |
| Is it worth it for a newbie to knock out? | Not unless there is Durin and Nicole. | No |
| Is F2P suitable? | No | Yes |









Why isn't Valera an option in the poll? I'll try to get him. And Zi Bai. I'd like Mitya too, but the Tsarina is coming soon, and she's a priority.
Zi Bai. Columbine is already waiting. Linnea, of course, is a natural choice, but despite all my efforts to convince myself, I still couldn't get over her terrible design, along with the equally terrible design of her "pet."
Without it, horse meat loses a lot.
I know. But I’ll survive somehow, there are options without it.
Why did you so unfairly deprive the shark?
Among the Chronicles, she has the best DPS (almost at the level of Mava), and fairly cheap squads.
