- Rumor 1
- Who would have thought? A lowly slave barely surviving in the arena actually climbed all the way to the champion's throne. Even more outrageous... she never lost a single match. Haha, back then I made a fortune betting on her wins, which gave me the capital to start my business. How about it? Want to place a bet too?
- Rumor 2
- The fame and power of the Arena Champion are almost on par with the ruler of Kainar. Yet Aquila has never used this to seek anything for herself. All she pursues is a true duel staked on life itself. Demons revere strength, that is true. But a freak like her, whose mind is filled with nothing but battle, is probably one of a kind.

Lucky you. I'm taking my time with this one.
Hahaha! You've got guts—I like that!
Try to last at least three minutes, alright?
Tsk. Barely even a warm-up.
Don't tell me you're done already?
One more win. One more day free.
The thrill of the fight...
...gets my blood pumping!
Sealed Desires
Who am I. you ask? You're looking at Aquila, ghost hunter extraordinaire!
If you let me catch you pulling pranks, you're done for!
Grawr! I'll gobble you right up!
Naughty little ghost! You can't fool me!
I'm gonna get rid of every single last one for you!
Well, you had that coming the moment you pulled that prank!
Better start running...
...while you still can!
You're dead meat!
Costume and Skills: Savage Warrior
Aquila's first implemented costume is "Savage Warrior" (戦場の野獣／Savage Warrior), released on August 27, 2026 alongside the Store Manager Story game cassette 2 "Way of the Demon." It is a version from an original fantasy world (the Demon Realm Caenar), and its attribute and role are Fire-attribute physical attacker.

💪 Passive Enhancement: Attack Stacking
For 4 turns, when self is attacked, gain 1 stack of ATK increase lasting 4 turns 15% effect, stackable up to 99 layers. (After +3 it becomes 21%, after +5 it becomes 27%; with all potentials unlocked, an additional +3% each)
⏱️ Passive Enhancement: Cooldown Reduction
For 2 turns, when this unit is attacked, reduces the cooldown of the current costume. 2 turns. If hit 4 or more times in one turn, the 9-turn cooldown can be reset almost seamlessly.
⚠️ Important Mechanic Reminder: The attack stacking effect will only start to take effect after the skill is first cast. The stacking effect lasts for 4 turns. Each time the skill is recast, the duration is refreshed and the existing layers are retained.

Costume & Skill: Sealed Desires
"Sealed Desire" (封印されし欲望／Sealed Desire) is Aquila'ssecond costume, implemented after maintenance on October 22, 2026. Its role isHP-burn self-buff large-area burst DPS, with a strength rating of T1, and is regarded as one of the current top Fire-attribute DPS units.

Core Mechanic: Self-Buff Burst That Trades HP for Power
🩸 HP-Burn Cost
Consumes the equivalent of95% of own current HP HP as the cost to activate the skill; the HP deduction is settled at the moment of casting and is unrelated to damage.
🔥 Attribute Damage Buff
For 2 turns, own attribute damage increases 100%; after Potential is maxed out, extends to 4 turns, enabling full uptime.
🚫 Recovery Lock
For 2 turns, applies to selfrecovery effect immunityand cannot be removed by cleanse effects; she can only survive on shields and damage reduction.
⚡ Total Self-Buff Amount
100% Property Damage(2 turns) + Burst 2's 200% increased damage(4 turns) + Burst 3'sDamage +200%, and only when all three stack does it become a nuke.
⚠️ Key limitation: 95% HP burn + 2 turns of recovery immunity already makes self-sustain impossible; if you also take Burst 2, she additionally gets -50% to both defenses for 2 turns. She and the original skin "Battlefield Beast" are actually more "mutually exclusive" than complementary — the original skin wants to take hits actively to stack, while the new skin must avoid being hit; the two sets can only be used alternately by turn based on the enemy's attack pattern. The only things that can save her are energy shields and damage reduction: dot.gg specifically names Dystopian Diana, Red Riding Hood Lou, and the original skin's own Burst 3 shield.

※ Power conversion: with +5 all potentials unlocked, it's 2 hits ×500%; after also taking Burst 3 (Damage +200%), it becomes 2 hits ×700%, totaling 1,400%. This is also the source of "about 1400% at max investment."
Potential and Burst: The true complete form
"Sealed Desires" has a very key design — the core mechanics are largely pushed down into the potential and burst systems. Without unlocking potentials and bursts, this costume can only perform at less than half its strength. Potential priority order:Cooldown -2 turns(5→3) → Property Damage Buff +2 turns(2→4) → Damage +30%; for bursts, B1 expands range, B2 grants 200% increased damage, and B3 directly gives +200% damage.
- Potential
- Must-take| Cooldown -2 turns (5→3) | Property Damage Buff +2 turns (2→4) | Damage +30%
- Burst 1
- +1 SP | Skill range expanded to 13 tiles
- Burst 2
- +1 SP | Own Defense and Magic Resistance -50%(2 turns), and applies to selfDamage Increase 200%(4 turns)
- Burst 3
- +1 SP | Damage +200%(single hit 500%→700%)
✨ Fully built transformation: Counting the bonuses from Potential and Burst, she can unleash roughly 1400% of large-area burst, and the cooldown is only 3 turns, with both output frequency and per-hit quality reaching top-tier levels at the same time.
Strength Rating
✅ Strengths
- Nuke-level large-area burst: at max investment (potentials + Burst 3) about 2×700% = 1,400%, with only a 3-turn cooldown.
- Powerful self-buffing: comes with 100% Property Damage and 200% increased damage; dot.gg describes her buffs as even benefiting the next costume's skills.
- Strong in PvE: dot.gg rates her A+ for PvE, Beast/Guild War, and A for Last Night.
⚠️ Weaknesses and Thresholds
- Extreme survivability pressure: 95% HP burn + recovery immunity, plus Burst 2's additional -50% to both defenses; any single hit landing can take her out directly.
- "Mutually exclusive" with the original skin: The original skin relies on stacking by taking hits, but she must avoid being hit; dot.gg explicitly points out that the two sets are hard to coordinate; the only thing that can connect them is the shield from the original skin's Burst 3.
- Almost unusable in PvP: Mirror War rating C, burning 95% HP in PvP is equivalent to suicide.
- High resource threshold: The core mechanics are in Potential and Burst; without investing in Burst, it's hard to bring out her full strength.
Summary: "Sealed Desires" is a high-risk, high-reward, high-threshold HP-burn burst costume. She has top-tier AoE burst potential, but requires a complete shield-tank teammate setup and a large amount of investment resources to support her. If you already have the corresponding team foundation, she will be a powerful piece of the Fire-type DPS puzzle; if resources are limited, it's recommended to first aim for unlocking her in the collection or +1, and gradually build up her training.
Exclusive weapon: Blood Devourer
"Blood Devourer" is Aquila's UR exclusive weapon, whose effect is to directly increase her ATK, thereby amplifying her skill firepower; it is the core equipment for physical-DPS Aquila.
Base abilities
- UR
- Exclusive ability: ATK 67| Optional: ATK 37 or ATK 25% | Random basic ability: one of ATK (flat), ATK (%), Crit Rate (%), Crit Damage (%)
- SR
- Exclusive ability: ATK 47| Optional: ATK 37 or ATK 25% | Random basic ability same as above
Recommended substat priority
- Top priority
- Crit DMG: Directly raises the upper limit of the nuke burst within the buff window
- Second Priority
- Attack Power (%): Steadily raises the baseline of panel stats and skill multipliers
- Third Priority
- Crit Rate: Ensures crit consistency for high-multiplier attacks
💡 Signature weapon pull recommendation: +67 ATK is at the "standard signature weapon" level; it helps firepower but is not essential. dot.gg's evaluation is "a luxury to pull if you have spare resources"; it is only worth prioritizing when pushing leaderboard scores. If the costume itself is not yet +1, putting resources into limit breaking first is more practical.
Talent Skill: What a Nuisance! (目障りだ！)
Effect: Can subdue some of the monsters already spawned on the map at once.
Cost: Talent Potion ×50.
Daily uses: 10 times.

⚠️ Weaknesses
- Fierce competition among fire-attribute physical attackers (already have strong characters like Liatris, Anastasia, Elise, Rubia, etc.)
- Attack stacking only begins to take effect after the first skill is cast
- Frail defensive constitution (base HP around 2,100, no base DEF or magic resistance), not suitable as a tank
- When using the original skin alone, if the enemy attacks fewer than 3 times, the 9-turn cooldown will severely slow down her damage output

Usage Recommendations
Battlefield Beast
Aquila is a head-on power fighter of the "take hits first, burst later" type. To realize her true value, three things are needed: first, deliberately place her within the enemy's attack range and use the hits taken to stack layers and the -2 cooldown to get her skill rotation going; second, pair her with durability supports (energy shields, healing, barriers) to ensure she is not killed during the stacking period; third, in content with wider battlefields such as Guild Raids, her 9-tile (X + row) attack range can be maximized. If the enemy only attacks single targets, or attacks fewer than 3 times per turn, her rotation will noticeably slow down.
Sealed Desires
The usage of the second costume is the opposite of Battlefield Beast: the original skin wants to actively take hits to stack layers, while she must first stay alive before she can act.
• At the start, let the shield unit establish the defensive line first, then bring her in to burn HP; do not act first when there is no shield coverage.
• Before casting, confirm that HP is enough to withstand the 95% HP burn; during the 2 turns of recovery immunity, healing cannot restore it, so do not force it open on high-pressure turns.
• Distinguish the buff windows clearly:100% attribute damage lasts only 2 turns(4 turns after Potential +2),while the 200% damage boost lasts 4 turns; schedule your main damage turns inside the window and do not waste it.
• Once Potential (Cooldown -2) is maxed, the cooldown drops to 3 turns, allowing you to alternate turns with the original skin, but the two sets have opposite requirements for "whether to take a hit," so you must first check the enemy's attack pattern before deciding the order.
• The original skin's Burst 3 energy shield is her only self-preservation tool, so "using both sets together" rather than "using the new skin alone" is the complete solution—provided you can work out which turn the enemy will attack her.

Summoning advice
Features: She has both an "original skin that stacks on being hit" and a "burst skin that self-buffs by burning HP"—one handles sustained cycles, the other handles nuclear bursts. They complement each other on paper but are mutually exclusive in practice—you must choose one per turn based on the enemy's attack pattern.
Current status: After the October 22, 2026 implementation of "Sealed Desires," Aquila jumped from "promising for the future" to a top-tier Fire DPS. Fully built (Potential + Burst 3) she reaches roughly 1,400% wide-area multiplier with a 3-turn cooldown, rated T1.
Note: This season's (10/29–11/4) Fiend is the Fire-attribute "Grotesque Lady," and Aquila is also Fire-attribute, so there is no elemental advantage—this is not her time to shine; her value lies in future Wind-attribute Fiends and Guild Raids.
Pull advice: Beginners should just unlock her for the collection; when resources are limited, prioritize low-investment DPS. Mid-tier players should aim for +1 (SP reduced to 4) to function normally. Only those chasing rankings / veteran players should consider +5 and the exclusive weapon. Resource-saving route: After November 5, the costume can be obtained from the Hope Powder Shop and Selective Draw, so there's no rush to hard-pull during the Pickup period.

Supplementary Notes
Aquila is a relatively rare completely new character in "BROWN DUST 2" (most updates add new costumes to existing characters), and her two costumes belong to different worlds: the original skin comes from the demon realm Kenar of the original storyline, while the new skin is a zombie ghost hunter from a fairy-tale world.
Her knockback direction on attack is upper-left (ノックバック左上). With the implementation of "Sealed Desires," she now has 2 costumes, and the extra stat bonuses from Potential enhancement have returned to the normal level for multi-costume characters. The exclusive weapon "Blood Devourer" is shared across the character, so pulling one boosts the firepower of both costumes simultaneously.
The two costumes have different growth directions: the original skin leans toward ATK stacking, while the new skin leans toward elemental damage and crit damage. When resources are limited, it's recommended to prioritize investing in the new costume's Potential and Burst, as almost all of her core mechanics are there. Burning 95% HP + recovery immunity is extremely risky in high-pressure stages like "Last Night," so it's recommended to use it only when shield coverage can be guaranteed.
