Skylark is originally the symbol of the Shimizu family, which created this namesake Mecha. It is appealing for the combination of traditional Japanese styling and modern technology. The left wing can transform into attacking bird that also recharges the Lark. Also figuring in its nimble mobility, then it’s almost impossible to defeat this Mecha in a war of attrition.

2. Modules
Every Mecha has four Module Skills: Attack Defense, Propulsion, and Core, that can be freely allocated out of combat. After allocation, the appropriate module must be found in the Arena to activate the skill. Every module type ranged from level 1-3 (Green, Blue, Purple) to activate skills of different levels.
Tips
This is recommended purple modules for Skylark:
In this configuration, Talon module increases primary weapon damage and bullet size. Larger bullet size helps to hit target with primary weapon. Eagle Eyes module very good for better aiming, if enemies Mecha invisible behind the trees or buildings. It makes advantage when you able to see enemy, while you hide yourself behind tree.
And Light Feather module increases moving speed during accelarating. This movement speed bonus helps to keep distance from fast enemies like Arthur and Neutron.
In the conclusion, there is no big difference between Skylark Core 1 and Core 2, it works almost same they and gives small damage bonus for secondary weapon Hunt. This two Core modules balanced enough, and doing almost same thing. So it’s better to give your teammate Core module which he really need, while keep for your Skylark any of this Core 1 or Core 2.

4. Pilot Ability
Skylark Pilot – Iori. But Iori got not that good Mecha ability, so its better to use some other Bonus from other pilots.
For example, Fuel Bonus:
+10% Fuel Bonus should work great for better Skylark Mobility. It allows to perform more Jumps and dodge enemy attacks.
Also, Movement Speed should works good for Skylark:
When you hit enemy target with secondary weapon, you will receive up to +10% Movement Speed bonus, but only for 3 seconds. This is still helps to Move faster and keep distance from enemy like Arthur.
5. Tactical Terminal
Any of this Tactical Terminals works great for Skylark:
Fiery Instinct:
Movement Speed terminal must have for Skylark mobility.
Anti-Artillery Shield:
This terminal reduce damages by 10% from attacks 50m away. This is can be great tactic for Skylark, just keep distance from enemy and reduce enemy attacks by 10%. It can be great advantage.
Energy Field:
Great Terminal Overall. If your Mecha Full HP and you use repair device, then it makes additional temporary Shield for Skylark, it very good for defense.
Strike Back, Eye for an Eye:
This terminals gives significant damage bonus.
