Florabelle debuted in AFK Journey through the Rate-Up Recruitment beginning on April 15 at 7pm CT, taking over for Vala. As a Wilder Fighter, she harnesses the power of her summoned students to deal damage and control enemy characters, while also buffing allied summons.
Should you summon Florabelle in Rate-Up Recruitment in AFK Journey?
You should pull for Florabelle in AFK Journey during her Rate-Up Recruitment period up to Mythic+. That’s because her EX Weapon skill, Protective Blessing, grants a permanent shield to all allied summons, not just her own, and it’s the skill you unlock on Mythic+. The synergy with Cecia is the main reason I’m investing diamonds and Rate-Up Recruitment Letters for at least one copy of Florabelle early on, regardless of her individual performance and power level. If you have enough recruitment resources, you ideally want five copies of Florabelle, so you can unlock her EX Weapon skill.
Florabelle will be in the Rate-Up Recruitment option in the Noble Tavern from April 15 to May 10, when she’ll move to the All-Hero and Epic Recruitment options. The previous Rate-Up character, Vala, will now be available in these two standard recruitment modes.
Best Florabelle character synergies in AFK Journey
- Cecia
- Damian
- Rowan
Given the formidable power level of Cecia and her summon, Mr. Carlyle, in both PvE and PvP modes, pairing her with Florabelle significantly improves Cecia’s damage-carrying capabilities. Making Cecia stronger is a good reason alone to invest in Florabelle. Damian’s toy chariot qualifies as a summon under Florabelle’s skill, so this establishes a core team composition with Cecia as the damage carry, Damian as support, and Florabelle as a utility hero. Adding a robust frontline with Thoran as the tank and Antandra as the off-tank solidifies your first Florabelle team.
Rowan is an excellent hero to pair with Florabelle, as his Energy-boosting Ultimate allows her to use her own Ultimate more frequently, enabling her to control enemies multiple times during a fight. This pairing provides a window to attack enemies without counterattacks for a few seconds, which could be crucial in turning the tide of the battle.
All Florabelle skills in AFK Journey
| Skill | Description | Unlocked in tier |
|---|---|---|
| Pounding Blow (Ultimate) | At the start of a battle, Florabelle summons a Spiny, mighty hammer-wielding petalium, dealing high damage and knocking enemies within an area in the air. Spiny has 80 percent of Florabelle’s max HP and deals damage equals to 60 percent of her attack. Automatically rejoins battle in 10 seconds when defeated. | – |
| Overgrowth | Feeds a “snack” to a petalium to increase their size for eight seconds, giving them 60 Haste and 60 Life Drain. Priority order for Overgrowth is Smashy, Swifty, and Spiny. | – |
| Tiny Sharpshooter | Florabelle summons Swifty, a short bow petalium. If there’s already a Swifty on the battlefield when this skill is cast, it will instead unleash a burst of arrows, hitting enemies with multiple shots in a short amount of time. Can be summoned again eight seconds after defeated. | – |
| Hero Focus | Increases Florabelle’s attack by 10 percent during battle, with four percent extra when at least two of her summons are on the battlefield. | Legendary+ |
