What is Prism's best ability in Dispatch?

Perfect Copy is Prism's strongest power upgrade. It makes her duplicated illusions have the FULL stats of the copied hero instead of just 50%, effectively doubling your strongest hero's power on missions.

How does Prism's Doppelganger ability work?

When assigned to a call, Prism duplicates the hero to her left, placing their illusion in an empty slot. With Perfect Copy unlocked, the illusion has 100% of the copied hero's stats, making Prism essential for maximizing team power.

How should I build Prism's stats?

Focus on Charisma and Combat first - these are her natural strengths (both start at 4). Her Vigor is rock bottom (1), so avoid situations where she'll take damage. Pair her with tanky heroes to protect her.

Who should Prism copy for maximum effectiveness?

Place Prism to the right of your strongest hero (they must be on her LEFT). With Perfect Copy, you essentially get two copies of your best hero. Ideal targets: high Combat heroes, specialists with dominant stats, or heroes with powerful abilities.

Prism Guide - Photokinesis Build, Perfect Copy & Team Strategies

Who is Prism?

Prism (real name: Alice) is a pop star and influencer with the power of photokinesis in Dispatch. As a member of the Z-Team, she combines celebrity status with devastating illusionary abilities. Prism excels at Charisma-based missions and Combat situations, but has critically low Vigor making her a glass cannon.

✨ Unique Trait: Prism can create illusions of other heroes with her Perfect Copy ability, effectively doubling your strongest hero's power on missions. She's perfect for fights or PR events but can't take a hit.

Photokinesis Abilities Explained

💫 What is Photokinesis?

Light Manipulation: Prism can control and manipulate light at will

Photoionization: Convert light into solid constructs

Holographic Manipulation: Create convincing illusions

Unique Application - Permanent Blindness:

Unlike normal light flashing which causes temporary blindness, when Prism flashes someone, the blindness is permanent. This makes her exceptionally dangerous in combat scenarios.

👥 Doppelganger Illusion (Starting Power)

Effect: When assigned to a call, Prism duplicates the hero to her LEFT, placing their illusion in an empty slot with half their stats.

Positioning is Critical:

The hero must be on Prism's LEFT for duplication to work. Plan your team roster positioning carefully before deploying.

⭐ Perfect Copy (Hero Power Training - RECOMMENDED)

Upgrade Effect: Prism's copied illusions now have the FULL stats of the copied hero (100% instead of 50%).

Why This is S-Tier:

You essentially get TWO of your strongest hero. Example: Copy a Combat 10 hero → You now have Combat 10 (original) + Combat 10 (copy) = Combat 20 total power on the mission.

⚡ Pro Strategy:

Place Prism to the RIGHT of your highest-stat hero. The illusion fills an empty slot, so 2-hero missions become 3-hero power missions.

⏱️ Long Range Illusion (Alternative Power)

Effect: When a call is about to expire, Prism creates an illusion that keeps the call up for a few more seconds. This happens once per shift.

Situational Use: Only useful if you frequently have calls expiring. Perfect Copy is almost always better for raw power output.

Optimal Prism Build Strategy

📊 Recommended Stat Priority

1. CharismaMax Priority

Starts at 4 - max this first for PR events, negotiations, and social missions. Prism excels here.

2. CombatHigh Priority

Also starts at 4 - invest heavily for fight scenarios. Combined with Perfect Copy, this becomes devastating.

3. IntelligenceMedium Priority

Useful for tech-hybrid missions but not her primary strength.

4. Mobility / Vigor⚠️ Avoid

Starting at 1 each - don't waste points here. Bring tanky teammates instead.

🎯 Power Choice Recommendation

Best Choice: Perfect Copy (99% of situations)

Doubles your strongest hero's effectiveness instantly
No tactical complexity - just position Prism correctly
Scales infinitely with your roster strength
Works on every mission type

Best Team Compositions

🔥Prism + Flambae (Synergy Duo)

Official Synergy Partner: Flambae

Why It Works: Flambae provides tanking/damage that Prism lacks

Perfect Copy Synergy: Copy Flambae's high Combat stats for double fire power

Rating: S-Tier (Official synergy + Perfect Copy combo)

Prism + High-Stat Specialist

Ideal targets to copy with Perfect Copy:

High Combat Heroes (8-10): Phenomaman, Sonar - Double their damage output
Charisma Specialists: Copy high-Charisma heroes for PR event dominance
Balanced All-Rounders: Copy heroes with multiple 6-7 stats for versatile illusions
⚠️ Avoid Copying: Low-stat heroes or those with negative traits

🛡️ Tank + Prism + Specialist

3-hero composition for balanced missions:

Position 1 (LEFT): High-stat DPS or specialist (Prism will copy this hero)

Position 2 (MIDDLE): Prism - copies hero on her left

Position 3 (RIGHT): Tank/Defender - protects Prism's low Vigor

Result: DPS power × 2 + Tank protection + Prism's natural Charisma/Combat

Mission Type Recommendations

Mission Type	Prism Rating	Notes
PR Events / Media	S-Tier	Pop star background + Charisma 4 base = perfect fit
Combat (with Perfect Copy)	S-Tier	Combat 4 base + copy high-Combat hero = devastating
Negotiations / Diplomacy	A-Tier	High Charisma handles these well
2-Hero Missions	A-Tier	Perfect Copy makes it feel like 3-hero mission
Mobility-Heavy Missions	D-Tier	Mobility 1 base - avoid unless copying mobile hero
Frontline Tank Needed	F-Tier	Vigor 1 = instant failure if taking hits

Advanced Prism Strategies

💡 Copy Target Priority System

Choose who to copy based on mission requirements:

Combat Missions: Copy highest Combat stat hero (even if it's not Prism's strength)
Charisma Missions: Copy second-best Charisma hero (Prism already brings her own)
Balanced Missions: Copy hero with most relevant stat for primary objective
Emergency Situations: Copy tank heroes if survival is more important than damage

⚡ Permanent Blindness Tactic

Leverage Prism's unique photokinesis application:

Use light flash as opening move in combat to permanently blind key threats
Prioritize high-damage enemies for blinding effect
Coordinate with team to exploit blinded enemies' vulnerabilities
Remember: This is PERMANENT, not temporary like normal light-based attacks

Common Prism Mistakes to Avoid

Wrong positioning: Hero must be on Prism's LEFT to be copied. Placing Prism leftmost = no copy target.
Investing in Vigor: Don't try to fix her Vigor 1 weakness. Instead, bring tanks to protect her.
Ignoring Perfect Copy upgrade: This is her most powerful ability. Prioritize unlocking it ASAP.
Copying weak heroes: Perfect Copy doubles stats - copying a hero with stats of 2-3 wastes the potential.
Sending her to physical/tanky missions: Vigor 1 and Mobility 1 mean she fails at these mission types.
Forgetting synergy partner: Prism + Flambae has official synergy bonuses. Use them together when possible.
