← Claire: skills, upgrades and Might
**Claire** is an SSR warrior who plays as DPS. Fully upgraded, she reaches 685,150 Might, rank 12 of 16 among the game's DPS heroes. Unlocking her takes 10 shards (:item-shard-claire: [[hero-shards|Claire Shard]]), and the shards become available once the :building-warrior-statue: [[building-warrior-statue|Warrior Statue]] reaches level 20.
This hero has an advanced UR form: :hero-claire-adv: [[hero-claire-advanced|Claire (Advanced)]].

## Why she matters
**Role:** An area DPS for warrior squads, as :skill-claire-2: Celestial Judgment covers every nearby enemy for 2,266.29% of ATK. The passive :skill-claire-4: Call of the Brave raises monster damage for the three highest-attack warriors in the squad, so Claire strengthens more than herself.
**Worth investing:** By maximum Might Claire shares eleventh place of sixteen DPS heroes with Sivir and with her own advanced form, all three at 685,150, and she sits in tier B. Rarity by itself adds nothing here, and the plain Claire is worth levelling mainly as a warrior for the full faction bonus.

## Upgrade order
**Skill priority:** Celestial Judgment comes first, her largest skill and the only one that hits an area. Rain of Arrows is next, weaker but back every 5 seconds. Call of the Brave follows for the squad-wide bonus, and the auto attack :skill-claire-1: Holy Banner comes last with the support skill, since its 594% arrive only with the fiftieth star.

## Progression
### Hero levels
The hero has 150 levels, and reaching the last one costs :res-antidote: Antitoxin 5,248,471,500. The table shows the stats at reference levels:
| Level | HP | ATK | DEF |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1,461 | 23 | 15 |
| 50 | 50,907 | 841 | 540 |
| 100 | 299,538 | 4,959 | 3,184 |
| 150 | 713,159 | 11,804 | 7,579 |
### Stars
Reaching 50 stars takes 975 shards (:item-shard-claire: [[hero-shards|Claire Shard]]). Besides stats, stars unlock stronger versions of the skills, which makes them matter more than levels:
| Stars | HP | ATK | DEF | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 24,693 | 407 | 261 | 3 |
| 25 | 72,970 | 1,206 | 774 | 8 |
| 40 | 141,992 | 2,352 | 1,510 | 35 |
| 50 | 203,725 | 3,370 | 2,164 | 60 |
### Skill levels
Every skill goes up to level 40 with :item-skill-badge: [[skill-badges|Skill Badge]]: one skill costs 436,700 of them. The higher the level, the more hero stars it requires:
| Skill level | Stars | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 20 | 300 |
| 10 | 30 | 1,200 |
| 20 | 40 | 6,900 |
| 30 | 50 | 18,400 |
| 40 | 50 | 33,400 |
## Might at full progression
Gains from each progression system on its own. They show where to invest first:
| System | HP | ATK | DEF |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hero levels | 713,159 | 11,804 | 7,579 |
| Stars | 203,725 | 3,370 | 2,164 |
| **Total** | **916,885** | **15,174** | **9,744** |
## How to play
Claire and her advanced form share one maximum Might, 685,150, yet they reach it differently. A full build of the plain Claire gives 916,885 HP and 15,174 ATK, the advanced one 1,386,507 and 22,679, because the attack growth multiplier is 0.95 for the first and 1.42 for the second. Celestial Judgment lands 2,266.29% of ATK against 3,486.6%.
Both forms share one shard: 10 of them unlock the plain Claire, after which the same shards go either into her stars or into the stars of the advanced form. Neither carries a season day or server age condition, so the choice arrives at once, and both ultimates recharge in 8 seconds.
Stars cost Claire the most, not in badges but in waiting: 975 shards, while a recruit yields a hero shard in roughly 26% of pulls. Skills rise to level 40 at 436,700 badges each and return less: Call of the Brave tops out at 24% monster damage against 30% for the advanced form.
The best squad with Claire and no UR hero is Kesso, Lucius, Sivir, Bella and Claire herself: five warriors, a +20% bonus and 8.1M of survivability. Alongside Arthur and Marlena she joins three of the five best reachable squads, where survivability reaches 38.2M, and the price of the full bonus is 20% extra damage from rangers.
