Basic Attack

Norma's kit revolves around Personal Resources. She passively gains Personal Resource when she's on-field, but she can also accumulate using Hat Trick.

If Norma is wearing a hat, you can hold Norma's basic attack to throw her Hat. Hitting an enemy with it triggers the previous character's quick assist, and replaces Norma in the field, accumulating Personal Resources. This hat can store up to 50% Personal Resource, and Norma can receive this by retrieving the hat.

Dodge

• Dodge: Development Specifications — Press Evade to perform a quick dash dodge; the character is invulnerable during use
• Dash Attack: Deadline Dash — Press Normal during a dodge to spin and fire at nearby enemies, dealing Fire DMG
• Dodge Counter: Compliance Test — Press Normal after a Perfect Dodge to unleash continuous drilling strikes, dealing Fire DMG; character is invulnerable during the action

Assist

• Quick Assist: Thunder Support — When the active character is launched, press Switch to summon continuous drilling strikes dealing Fire DMG; character is invulnerable during use
• Defensive Assist: Tech Barrier — When an ally is about to be hit, press Switch to parry the attack and deal massive Daze; also reduces Assist Point consumption under heavy pressure; character is invulnerable during use
• Assist Follow-Up: Tech Suppression — After a successful Defensive Assist, press Normal to unleash consecutive attacks dealing Fire DMG; character is invulnerable during the action

Special Attack

EX Special Attack: Mmhm Barrage: With enough Energy, pilot a turret to unleash continuous fire and switch missile types based on enemy status:

• Non-stunned enemies: Armor-piercing fire rounds with high Daze buildup
• Stunned enemies: High-explosive fire rounds with increased damage
• Buff: Gain 20% Personal Resources and trigger Firepower Barrage for 40s, deploying 2 auto-turrets
• Hold: Extend firing up to 2s by consuming Energy; more SP increases resources and extends Barrage duration

EX Special Attack: Target Practice: Turrets automatically attack enemies in combat, dealing Fire DMG

EX Special Attack: Firepower Test: enhances turrets for 9 seconds when enemies are Stunned or during Chain Attacks, increasing attack speed and switching ammo types for higher Daze or boosted Fire DMG depending on enemy state.

Chain Attack

When triggered, select the character to activate: commands a massive barrage of drills to unleash consecutive attacks, dealing massive Fire DMG; character is invulnerable during use.

ZZZ Norma Core Passives

• For every 1% Crit rate that Norma has, she gains 0.9% Crit Damage and the daze inflicted by EX Special, Assist Follow-Up and Ultimate increases by 0.6%. This allows her to receive up to a whopping 81% Crit damage and 54% Daze.
• Entering the field gives Norma 50% Personal Resources. If she has at least 80%, the next Quick Assist triggered will consume 80% of it, and will be replaced with a Chain Attack. The corresponding agent also recovers an additional 350 Decibels.

Additional Ability
