The latest Anime Vanguards update brings the summer heat—literally—with the addition of Mereoleona Vermillion, the explosive flame user from Black Clover. This fiery powerhouse is more than just a limited-time unit; her skills, scaling potential, and AoE capabilities make her one of the most dynamic characters in the game right now. Whether you’re trying to unlock her or optimize her skill usage, this guide has you covered. Check out our Anime Vanguards Codes for more rewards!
How to Get Mereoleona (Leo)
Mereoleona is available exclusively through the Lion’s Arrival summer event. Here’s how to unlock her:
- Go to the Event Area in the lobby.
- Find the Lion’s Arrival event board.
- Complete all required objectives (typically involves clearing specific stages or defeating enemies).
- Once you finish the mission set, claim Mereoleona from the reward screen.
There are no summons involved—just gameplay and mission clearing. That means every player can unlock her as long as the event is active.
Skill & Passive Breakdown
Mereoleona isn’t just visually impressive—her skill design is layered and interactive, rewarding smart play. Here’s how her kit works:
Passive Abilities
- Burn Damage: All attacks apply burn, dealing 20% of her base damage over 5 seconds.
- Enhanced Burn: If she burns an enemy that has already attacked, the burn damage increases by 5%.
- Adaptive Range: Her range increases by 20% for every burning enemy within her range.
- Burning Focus: Attacks against already burning enemies deal 20% extra damage.
Active Ability: Hellfire Incarnate
- This skill can be toggled on/off manually.
- While active, Mereoleona gains +1% damage per second for every second an enemy is in her range.
- Each attack reduces her range by 2%, and this reduction cannot be cleansed.
- When deactivated, both the buff and debuff reset to her default values.
This creates a high-risk, high-reward scenario: turn on her ability for maximum DPS but risk losing range over time—unless she’s surrounded by burning enemies, which can offset that debuff.
Mereoleona is easily one of the most impressive and well-balanced units introduced in Anime Vanguards Update 7.5. Between her unique scaling mechanic, her interactive burn synergy, and free accessibility through the event, there’s no reason to miss out. Unlock her through the Lion’s Arrival event, play smart with her toggled ability, and unleash one of the highest DPS units currently available in the game.
