Gameplay-wise... When I got her, I had no idea where to look for info. I only saw her first skill and NP, and all of that seemed to be shouting "I am a sup with some damage!" I also noticed the Arts icon on her 2nd skill, which description was still blocked for me at the time. "If that is also a targeted buff, then she easily gets to be in my core Arts setup," - I thought. But at the same time it was obviously too good to be true. And yes, it ended up that her latter two skills were just selfish powerups for damage (which I never liked on rulers anyway).

So support-wise she ends up being able to buff a fellow Arts servant with her first skill and to provide a nice amount of stars for them. This, in fact, isn't bad. But not awesome either. I can see her use as a sup for teams with servants like Munenori or Izou, who can absorb those stars well. I also thought of adding her to a team with Vlad and Tamamo, for extra powerup on the main dps with a boost to NP gain, aswell as helping the team with generating stars between Vlad's own stargen from NP. But alas, I guess Mashu is still simply better for that setup. She might work well with Huang Di, though, as long as you don't use her 3rd skill at all.

Honestly, if her 3rd skill was more party-oriented, she would be so much better.
