Fenghuang of Vicissitude (FoV) is a valkyrie, so she has to be supported by AR valkyries with Harmonized Shadow Star trait, otherwise her potentials aren’t fully unlocked. However, using Rite of Oblivion valkyries CAN work until you get Harmonized Shadow Star valkyries, as they provide general buffs.

As a support, FoV can support Wheel of Destiny and valkyries.
