As daughter of the technological empire Reinford Foundation's chairwoman and possible heir, Alisa joins Class VII with a lot to think about. Her Brave Order Radical Design instantly heals a little HP and EP while giving a long period of increased break damage. Alisa wields a bow with impressive single-target range for initiating and countering attacks.
Alisa has a two-line ARCUS II with two fire and one space slot. The second line has one of the mandatory fire and one free slot. Strength and arts strength have solid growth so the potential for hybrid attacking exists, and the speed is not bad for an ally that operates at a range. The defensive stats are poor and she should remain distant from threats.
While Alisa has few crafts, each one has great utility even though the power and break damage is mediocre.
Rosetta Arrow is a magic-based linear attack that will imbalance and has a chance to burn.
Molten Storm is a physical attack covering a large set area, carrying a good chance to afflict targets with seal, mute, and burn.
Heavenly Gift is a regenerative area ability that gives health and Craft Points over time as well as the Insight buff.
Gabriel Arrow hits the entire battlefield with immense damage and a very high chance to cause mute.
Build 1: Support
Excel in the craft of helping others excel in their craft
Uniquely packing an ability that combines effects from spells like Shining, Earth Pulse, and Impassion into an AoE, Alisa keeps the entire team's crafts in play. This build ensures that it is not only sustainable to do so, but gives her the versatility to deal damage and provide other fantastic buffs.

[Ingenuity]
Beowulf has excellent perks for Alisa's skill set, returning Craft Points for each enemy hit by her arts. In addition, the reduction in delay from fire arts is multiplicative with Pyre Bell so as Beowulf levels, up to 75% of delay can be shaved off. Combined with Diabolos Gem or Divine Song, the spell Heat Up provided by Ingenuity can be used repeatedly to dramatically replenish the team's Craft Points, enabling onslaughts of S-crafts from everybody in the case of the latter. Large-area, reduced-delay spells like Flare Butterfly and Galion Fort enables her to keep Heavenly Gift active. La Forte and Cheer also make a melee team very happy.
The EP restoration provided by Titania and the cuts given by Deus Gem helps her take advantage of Beowulf's main effect. Mirage arts, with post-cast delay halved Astral Bell, are loaded with defensive benefits, status debuffs, and effects like confusion and dispel that serve to protect your team passively. Alisa should not need Auto-Charge to sustain herself between attacking and casting support moves. Crescent Mirror and Heavenly Gift can sustain a team in many situations, but is not recommended as a full replacement for a healer or reserve of health/K.O.-restorative items in boss fights.
Argem Gem and Still Blue allow her to deal powerful magic damage. Deep Ocher for the second gear slot protects against mute while giving Alisa much-needed resilience. Grail Locket protects against all manners of debuffs, but healers without Oberon may prefer to have it first.
