Who is Windsong?

Windsong is a 6-star Star-afflatus, Mental-damage DPS and one of the best single-target damage dealers in Reverse: 1999, with extremely high burst potential. She is self-sufficient — she generates her own cards to set up her Ultimate — and prydwen calls her the queen of Crit-oriented teams. Her trade-off is a longer setup: her Ultimate runs on roughly 5-turn rotations that require fresh Tuning. Source: prydwen.gg/re1999/characters/windsong.

👥 Best Teams

Crit single-target: Windsong + Lopera + a [Confusion] applicator (e.g. Tooth Fairy) + a sustain — Lopera amplifies team Crit while Windsong delivers single-target burst; she also benefits from the Vertin Unfinished Tune artifact (synergy per prydwen). She fits any Crit-oriented team.

F2P Verdict

Worth ItPatch 3.4

EDITORIAL (prydwen rating 6). An excellent self-sufficient single-target burst DPS and a standout in Crit-oriented teams; her longer 5-turn setup and higher execution complexity keep her at worth rather than must-pull.

Her best psychube is On the Hand of Time, with Another Story, For Rehabilitation, Outside the City and Blasphemer of Night as listed alternatives. She is self-sufficient on supports but takes time to set up (about 5-turn Ultimate rotations), so she rewards players comfortable with longer rotations. Source: prydwen.
