DragonSword: Awakening How to Use Theresia

Last updated: August 2026

Bleed stacking, Super Armor break, and Stun chains with the inquisitor.

Theresia's Combat Identity

One of ten Organa Order Heretic Inquisitors, Theresia wields dual flails applying Bleed and Stun. Her trailer tagline: "The only mercy granted to heretics is death." She excels at Super Armor break through continuous spin skills stacking effects each rotation.

Boss Fight Application

Pair with Roxy for ranged Bleed support on Field Giant Bosses. After armor break, mount or grab skills activate for extended damage phases. Controller players benefit from Stun keeping bosses centered during flail combos.

Team Placement

Core pick for Bleed teams and high demo tier lists. See developer stream examples in the Developer Walkthrough.
